Karl


You will have heard about it: Karl Lagerfeld's new line, Karl, was launched yesterday. I like it – even though it really doesn't look new. It's exactly what you expected from him, but never mind. Some pieces look like the kind of fashion I would have designed had somebody asked me.
Above: my favourites from Karl, available at Net-a-Porter.

Pirate


Red nail polish is a beauty staple that's never wrong. Today I am wearing: "Pirate" by Chanel, which was a gift from my boyfriend.

PS1: I love you


Here's something to match the jewellery I posted yesterday. After crushing on pink and coral Chloé bags, primary colours and blue flaps, I am now dreaming of Neon. Above: PS1's from the Proenza Schouler spring collection 2012. The blue version is exclusively available at The Webster.

Cocktail Party


New obsession: bracelets and necklaces with big colourful crystals and massive silver chains. Above: pieces by Shourouk (left), Iosselliani (middle), and Dannijo (right).

Pastels



I find the 3.1 Phillip Lim collection for spring very inspiring - especially the outfits in pastel colours. Above: sweater "Sapata" by Acne (can't wait for it to arrive), blouse and socks by Topshop, bag by Alexander Wang, jeans by Current/Elliott and nail polish by Essie. Photo via Wildatheart.

In the lower picture I am wearing a necklace by 1988 Jewellery and a sweater knitted by my Mom.

Jenny Mörtsell draws



I admire the Swedish illustrator Jenny Mörtsell for her patience and sense of detail in her pencil drawings. I am never patient enough to finish such realistic drawings (which is why the only ones I did are from my time in school when I was "forced" to work on them for hours).

The Neon-Coral Bag

I saw this new version of the PS1 by Proenza Schouler in a store yesterday – together with some other sweet pieces from the spring collections. I actually got something very colourful (it will feel lonely in my wardrobe). Above: jeans by Thu Thu, shirt by Equipment, bracelets by Eddie Borgo (via Net-a-Porter), jacket and booties by Iro, pink lipstick by Uslu Airlines.

Mirrorshot

Just a short note to say Hello. This was my outfit today, while I walked around the city centre and discovered beautiful new things: biker jacket by Balenciaga, glitter sweater by H&M and top by Cos (and Zara boots which are not in the photo).

pink & black


Hej Älsklingar! I hope you have all had a merry Christmas. After several lovely family dinners, gift giving and getting and other holiday pleasantries, I am know thinking about my New Year's party outfit. One idea: dress by Asos, leather jacket by Balenciaga , shoes by Topshop, and vintage crystal necklace.

Paw prints in the snow


I just received this in a Christmas mailing from the Design Museum and I had to share it with you. By the brilliant Donna Wilson, whom I have mentioned earlier here.

1988 Jewellery





Last weekend I encountered a new jewellery label: 1988 Jewellery, you've got a new fan! The sterling silver and gold pieces are designed by Lilli Sachse from Hamburg. I am especially taken with the silver stud necklace, earrings and ring! They're the ideal combination of edgy, elegant, cool and puristic! (And I also just love pyramid studs).

Fashion Fantasy



This may be my favourite Vogue Cover of all times: Kate Moss on the December 2008 issue of British Vogue. It was photographed by Nick Knight and Kate is wearing dreamlike Dior Couture. The proper amount of Kitsch I need in December.

Sunday outfit


Here's a snapshot of what I was wearing on Sunday. The coat is a biker-jacket-inspired "manteau" by Sandro (do you remember it?), the shoes are old vintage boots (it was pretty wet outside, because it had snowed the other day. Also, I still cannot wear high heels), the blue hat is very warm, and the bag ... is my favourite version of "Alexa" (the leather has this amazing blue shimmer) by Mulberry – I will have to tell you more about it later.
