Så er vi i Berlin igen! Laura og jeg, atter på tur. Denne gang i anledning af Zalando’s Bread && Butter arrangement som bliver afholdt fra 1-3 september. Vi ankom i går monster tidligt (pyha) men overlevede med lur på hotel værelset og massere sukker i løbet af dagen. Vi så Topshop show, lyttede til en vildt fed fashion talk med Vivienne Westwood (starstruck ja tak) og spiste lækker middag i selskab med den internationale presse. Dette var mit outfit! Er selv ret vild med det lettere flabet, ikke så matchende, tern på tern! Husk i kan følge med på insta og på story hvis i vil se hvad Laura og jeg render rundt og laver i løbet af dagene!
english: We are in Berlin! Laura and I are once again out and about. This time we are here to be apart of Bread && Butter, taking place from the 1st of September to the 3rd. We arrived yesterday (crazy early) but survived on naps and lots of sugar during the day. Yesterday we attended the Topshop fashionshow, listened to a super inspiring fashion talk hosted by Vivienne Westwood (starstruck much?!) and had a delicious dinner together with all the international press. This was my outfit! I am pretty stocked about the kinda not matching check on check. I think it’s pretty bad ass. Remember to check up on instagram and story if you want to see what we do during the days!
Det er ikke hver dag at der kommer noget nyt til overfladen som virkelig fanger mig. For at være helt ærlig er det faktisk meget sjældent. Jeg mødte Hanrej drengene for nogle måneder siden igennem fælles venner og blev med det samme forelsket i brandet og de dejlige mennesker bag det. Hanrej er faktisk et smykkemærke men de laver også sejt promotional gear som denne girlcolor t-shirt. Jeg har praktisk talt boet i den siden jeg fik den. Jeg elsker at den er så alsidig og at den kan bruges af alle. Hanrej bevæger sig i deres eget unisex-univers og fremviser androgyne træk med stolthed både i deres smykker og deres tøj. Hanrej’s hjemmeside er kun lige gået i luften og deres smykker kommer på løbende. Indtil da bør i checke dem ud på instagram @hanrej. God fornøjelse!
english: it’s not everyday something new comes along that really excites me. To be honest it’s actually quite rare. I was introduced to the guys behind Hanrej a couple of months ago through mutual friends and I instantly fell in love with the brand and the great people behind it. Hanrej is actually a jewelry brand who also does promotional items like this girlcolor t-shirt. A t-shirt I have been practically living in since I got it. I love how it’s so gender versatile. Hanrej is all about the unisex universe and proudly showcases androgynous features. Their website only just launched and their jewelry is on it’s way – stay tuned and get excited. Until the website is fully equipped you should check out their instagram @hanrej. Enjoy!

Mens alle mine seje kollegaer render rundt i Oslo til Oslo Runway har jeg mere ro på her i København. Det er nu meget godt, jeg har en stor rejse forude som jeg snart kan fortælle jer mere om så jeg nyder virkelig at være hjemme lidt endnu. Der bliver nemlig ingen internationale modeuger for mig denne sæson, I know – det er helt underligt. Men i finder snart ud af hvorfor. Dette look reflektere rigtig godt klimaet i vores smukke hovedstad lige nu, lidt blæsende, lidt varmt, lidt koldt – lidt af det hele. Er i lige så vilde med Cult Gaia taskerne som mig? Jeg synes fanme de er fine!
english: While all my cool colleagues are strutting their stuff in Oslo at Oslo Runway as we speak, I am here in calm Copenhagen. Even though it feels a little off in a way, it’s kinda nice. I have a big trip ahead of me (will fill you in later) so I am really enjoying just being home. I won’t be attending the international fashion weeks this season, which is so weird, but all for good reason. This look is a very reflective of the weather today, a little windy, a little sunny, a little cloudy – a little of everything. Are you guys just as in love with the Cult Gaia bags as I am? They are just beautiful!
Lovechild 1979 SS18 show during Copenhagen fashionweek Photo by Mikkel Tjellesen
Jeg var så heldig at være med til mange skønne shows under den københavnske modeuge, men det var kun få som virkelig skilte sig ud. Kun få man havde lyst til at dykke ned i. Kun få man virkelig husker. Lovechild holdt deres show på en helt fantastisk location, et sted jeg ikke før havde været. Modellerne nærmest svævede over os da de kom ned af trapperne. Hele showet var en visuel godbid, alt fra location til håret og makeuppen – Lovechild havde virkelig fat i den røde tråd. L’oréal Paris’ fantastiske key makeup artist Sine Ginsborg er personen bag dette fine gyldne look og jeg har været så heldig at få fat i en lille fin Q & A med både hende og Anne-Dorthe Larsen som er kreativ direktør bag Lovechild 1979. Læs med nedenfor. God fornøjelse!
english: I was so lucky to attend many wonderful shows during Copenhagen Fashionweek, but somehow it’s only few that stand out. Only few you want to know more about. Only few you love. Lovechild hosted their show at an absolutely breathtaking location. The models almost floated as they walked the stairs above us. The whole show was a visual treat, everything from the location to the hair and makeup – Lovechild really connected the dots. L’oréal Paris’ genius key makeup artist Sine Ginsborg created this warm golden makeup look for the show and I was lucky enough to get a quick Q & A with both her and Anne-Dorthe Larsen who is creative director behind Lovechild 1979. Enjoy!
Q & A
Inspiration?
ADL: “ I wanted to keep the SS18 collection playful and quirky, but with a grown up sensibility as well. The collection suits the Scandi-cool woman on the go, who after a day of multitasking, bike-riding from one meeting to another and making her voice heard, just wants to go out for a drink with her girl squad. The styles have an urban quality to them but the fabrics are lush tweeds and luxurious silks, quaint prints and pretty woven flowers. It is eclectic without being farfetched in its references.”
SG: “I feel in love with all the colors – and the striped pants! The collection is so abundantly rich with texture and details, I wanted to keep the makeup subtle yet impactful. So you have the strong, a nicely hightlighted T-zone, a taupe shading of the eyelids and defined lashes. The leitmotif became the Fanta-colored nail polish that we both love. It was applied to the nails on both hands and feet. This made for a nice, feminine touch to the sporty sandals and a feisty splash of color against all the various prints.”
DIY tips?
ADL: “Make the pieces work for you! I always design with the intention that you should be able to mix and match all the styles. They should suit your mood and body type not the designer’s mind. You can accentuate the waist with the drawstring dresses or keep a more lose, romantic silhouette. You can wear the pants under your dress or a hoodie beneath the tailored jackets. Comfort and functionality are key as is the longevity of the pieces. The styles should always function as color pops in your wardrobe for many years to come.”
SG: “Tone down the highlights. Limit them to being subtle features on your cheekbones and cupid bow. Keep a strong brow. You want to get your hands on the Brow Artist Plumber – I use it every day and it works wonders on unruly as well as barely-there brows.”
From daywear to evening attire?
ADL: “Add a pair of heels and ease up on the layering”
SG: “Add lipstick! I’d go for the Color Riche in Perfect Red”
Når man nærmest samler på nude lakker kan man godt ende op med rigtig mange i sit skab. Og de ligger jo bare der, kigger på dig hver gang du åbner låget til din neglelak kasse “pick me pick me”. Det er ihvertfald det jeg forstiller mig de siger, måske de tænker “not me not me” fordi de ikke vil bruges op? Who knows. Jeg er begyndt at bruge mine lakker mere, forsøger at finde nye måder at “style” dem på så jeg kommer igennem flere og ikke bare bruger de samme tre som jeg tror mange har tendens til. Mit seneste yndlings look at lave er dette “5 shades of nude” hvor jeg har taget mine yndlings nude nuancer (lige nu) og lagt dem på forskellige fingre. Synes selv det er ret fint. Jeg blev endda stoppet i fakta af en dame som spurgte hvor hun kunne få lavet negle som mine. Jeg var meget stolt men måtte dog skuffe hende da jeg sagde jeg selv havde lavet dem. Men mon ikke en salon kan lave det samme look. I think so. God fornøjelse!
english: When you are what I would almost call a “nude polish collector” you can end up with more than a few in storage. And they just lay there, looking at you every time you open the lid to the box “pick me pick me”. That’s what I imagine anyway, maybe they are all “not me not me” because they don’t want to have the color sucked out of them? No one knows. I want to use all my polishes more so I have tried different ways to “style” them using more than one color. My favorite combo right now is this “5 shades of nude” look where I have taken my favorite nude shades (at the moment) and used one color on each nail. I quite like it myself, I was even stopped at my local supermarket by a lady who would love to know who did my nails. I unfortunately had to let her down by telling her I did them myself. But of course any salon can do the same look. I think so anyway? Enjoy!
