This is how I look when I apply make up

Well... kind of at least. This is going to be a regular here on my blog, every week I'll post a photo of my absolute favourite photographer, Richard Avedon. There just is something about his pics that make me want to looka at them over and over again, it's a kid of vitality in them, a joy of life, and still they never look shallow. I just think he is great. So sad he left the planet a couple of years ago...it would have been nice to see him work until the age of 150 years. Or more, some people just got the ability to catch the present, and he certainly had it.

Transparent but still not see through

I just saw this pic over at Hanneli's lovely blog. I must say that even though I'm not a particulary big fan of lace (wearing it myself that is, I think it looks good on others haha) I really liked this blouse from Givenchy. It's in some strange way very much transparent even though you don not focus on the skin behind the fabric, but on the beautiful handicraft the piece it self is. That it's haute couture just makes it even better.

THE SWEDISH MODEL WEARS FUR

Frida Gustafsson looks amazing in this ad for Paul and Joe. Note that she is wearing a fur, one of the biggest trends this year. I doesn't really matter how angry PETA are (or how many times they will crash important fashion shows spilling fake blood all over the place to make us understand how horrible the fur industry is), the fashion world still loves fur. Luckily for all our animal friendly types fake furs are a great option to the real ones.

Well, regardles of wearing one of my grandmother's furs from the 50's or my fake leopard one I must say that I like this trend. Especially as I ALWAYS feel like a piece of ice, in a fur even I can feel warm. That's very nice.

OUT WITH MIRA

Out in the night with the best. Wearing a nice dress and new shoes. Puss

At work at work at work

Right now I'm sitting in my pretty comfortable chair, drinking coffee, eating Läkerol and planning the interview I'm going to do in an hour or so. It's about long term relationships, and if they aren't as long as they used to be 50 years ago. Very interesting indeed. Anyhow, I really can't say that I'm am totally concentrated only on work today as it's friday and I have fun plans for the evening. I'm thinking about which heels I should put on. Ok, that totally made me sound like a fashion victim without a brain. Lucky for me I can say that I just finished a Sylvia Plath book. That makes me an intellectual fashion victim. Much better.

But if I could choose how to look to night I think I would like to wear something like this. Love Karla's blog, she is one of my favourites and I can't find anything negative to say about her style.

My half sister rocks

Oh yes she does, not only is she one of the sweetest (and most beautiful) peolpe I know (and a partner in crime when it comes to a lot of things), she is now also the styling assistant to one of the biggest bloggers in Sweden! Signe Siemensen is the face of American Apparel, as well as a stylist deluxe, and her blog is both full of nice pics and great inspiration style wise. To say that I'm proud of my dear Mira is an understatement, she deservs this job so much.
Just check this out people!

Dear Alexa...

...I really do love your style. It is timeless in a modern way, it's smart and above all; you always look totally effortless. It looks as if you don't even have to think about what to put on in the mornings. Or in the evenings. You're quite simply a natural style icon. And I like the fact that your hair is as long as mine, and that your body has the same (small) amount of curves as mine... That makes you my perfect role model when it comes to fashion. So Alexa when you read this (because I'm terribly sure you will haha) take my word on the fact that you look amazing, and that you are such an inspiration! Thanks a lot!

Lovelovelove on sweaters with leopard prints (this one above is from Chloè Sevigny's collection for Opening Ceremony)... or sweaters with stripes for that matter too!

!!!YES!!!

I'm so happy right now as I just got accepted to Fashion history at Stockholm University! Been wanting to study my favourite subject for such a long time now.I celebrated by buying a way to expensive pair of shoes. I mean, a girl got to look good in school, right?

Blake Lively's hair guru

Yesterday I got to interview the hair stylist of the stars Teddy Charles! He was such a nice man, both interesting to talk to and very handsome... I wish he could do my hair every morning. He usually does both editorials, runways as well as stars such as Cameron Diaz and Sarah Jessica Parker. I also spoke to one of the most famous swedish stylist, Tony Lundström, he almost said that I should go and get a proper hair cut. Well, maby I should but Teddy said I didn't need to do anything else then wash it and go. I think Tony is right but I will listen to Teddy.
The job will be published in SOLO later this summer.

First fashion job at SOLO

Today the first thing I've done for SOLO is out in the public. I made a little collection with outfits worn by the absolutely amazing Chloë Sevigny. Man, that girl know how to rock... well everything.
Click HERE for more lovely pics on Chloë!

Ps.
The interview with Elin Kling is coming in the next number of the magazine, look forward to see it, hold it and read it. My first article written for a fashion magazine wiho!

Shine on you crazy sequin

This is how Dolce and Gabbana thinks we ought to walk around this fall. That's just fine by me.

I have to get rich...

... because otherwise I never will be able to afford Chanel no. 5. My drug (at the moment I'm sponsored by a travelling father). And I just don't want it because I want to be as seductive as Marilyn. I don't, I'm aiming on being more like Dipsy in Teletubbies.

puss Nathalia aka Dipsy

ps. I hope you know the famous quote "I sleep in nothing else then my Chanel no. 5" said by Monroe. Ok, I knew you all knew it just wanted to remind you anyway.

In one week I'll be in Paris...

...And then I'll definately go and see the YSL exhibition at the Petit Palais. Yves Saint Laurent really is one of those imense designers who will never, ever, be forgotten. His legacy is far too big, and he keepon influencing the designers of today. Just look at all the versions of his "Le smoking".
