2010

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! 2010 was an amazing year in so many ways, I got to travel, meet exciting people and carry on with my dream job. I am so thankfull for everything in my life, family and friends, and being part of such a great community. I never dreamt that all this could happen. I look forward to everything 2011 has to offer. Wish you all the best for the new year!

Winter Wonderland

Its beginning to look at lot like Christmas in Norway. The temperature is dropping and on sunday we had a snowstorm. I like that we get a white Christmas, it calls for hot chocolate, lazy days watching movies and lots of good food. Wish you all a wonderful Christmas!

Almost Christmas

Christmas is just a couple of days away. I cant believe how fast this fall went, its like it was just August, and I was in New York. However, the Norwegian winter has been cruel so far, much colder than it has been in years. I am covering up in fake fur, boots and layers of wool. I am almost done with all my christmas presents and this weekend we are going to pick up a tree. I cant help but feeling blessed, the most important about Christmas to me, is to be around the people I love. Hope you all are enjoying the pre Christmas festivities!

Lanvin, I love you

Oh, yes I was one of those who got in line at 08.00 in the morning to snatch up my favorite pieces from the Lanvin for H&M collection. I was very happy when I got my hands on my two favorite dresses, the pink and the purple asymmetrical dress. At our Christmas party last friday, I wore the pink dress, and I have never gotten so many compliments in my life. A day to remember. Did you guys buy anything from the collection?

California

Sorry for being such a bad blogger. Sometimes it is just necessary to shut down. I have spent the last two and a half weeks in LA with friends. Had a wonderful time, have charged my batteries and ready for new and exciting action. Drove up the coast to San Luis Opisbo with my husband, spent a wonderful couple of days at Sycamore Springs and Hadsten House in Solvang. Celebrated Halloween with lots of fascinating people and got dressed up as Sammy Jo from Dynasty. Managed to drag my amazing friends to some shopping in Beverly Hills, were I among other things picked up this Rocco bag from Alexander Wang. Its already a favorite in my closet! Now I am off to check out what you all have been doing this past couple of weeks.

Outfit: Jacket from H&M, top from Forever21, jeans from J Brand, shoes from Vince Camuto, Alexander Wang Rocco handbag.

Fall

I love the crisp fall weather in Oslo. The air is so clean and the colors are beautiful, so I try ro spend as much time outside as possible. One of the best things about fall is lounging around in big sweaters, hot chocolate and spending time inside by the fire. What do you love about fall?

Red dress

This is what I wore to the G-Star Raw show. Felt like dressing up. I actually bought this dress on a sale 1 hour before I went to Pier 92. I was there to see the show and whatch Magnus Carlsen (the Norwegian chess player amd G-Star Raw model) walk the red carpet with Liv Tyler. Loved the vibe backstage after the show. Bumped into Kelly Osbourne, a Norwegian top model and some True Blood stars. Afterwards we went to Cipriani for dinner and G-Star afterparty and Mulberryparty. Had an amazing time!

Outfit: Dress from a local shop in NY (reminds me of a dress of the Stella McCartney summercollection, withouth the hefty price tag), shoes from Steve Madden and vintage Chanel handbag.

New York Fashion Week

In case you have been wondering were I have been, its been madness at New York Fashion Week. Working 17-hours days, but also having some fun between going to shows, interviews and parties. You can also follow my blog at minMote.no, its not always easy to update when I am working that much.
Anyways, here I am at the Mulberry show at Soho House, such a cool and laidback show. Loved the setting at the roof, the strong colors in the collection and of course the handbags and boots. I am dying for an Alexa handbag with zebra stripes for spring!

Outfit: Top from Gina Tricot, pants from Filippa K, bracelet from Mango and shoes from Vince Cameo.

Miss Aviator

Hi all,
So many changes have been made in the last week. I am cherishing the last of summer days and the crisp fall mornings and evenings. Next week I am off to New York Fashion Week, maybe I will see you there?
Have a great weekend!

Stockholm Streetstyle

Hi there!
So sorry for being a bad blogger. Between Fashion Weeks, working 24/7 and traveling, there has been little time left. Just wanted to share a photo from Stockholm Streetstyle that was taken during Copenhagen Fashion Week. I had a great time in spite of the rain, met a lot of exciting people and saw lots of fashion shows. Hope you all are well and ready for fall fashion. I am sorry to see the summer weather disappear, but its great to gear up for a new season!

Summer Nights

Even though I am getting geared up for fall fashion, I am not ready to leave those long summer nights behind. Hopefully, we will have a late and warm summer through september here in Oslo. I hope you all are enjoying your summer, wherever you are in the world. I am totally in love with my new wedges from Jeffrey Campbell, perfect for the last part of summer, but also lovely with tights and skirts for fall.

Maxi Dress

Hope you all are enjoying your summer!
I am relaxing in my Alexander Wang-inspired maxi dress, really love light cotton in the summer. Added a touch of glamour with the sunglasses. You all know I love the leopardprint, which will be an even bigger trend come fall.

Outfit: Dress from Gina Tricot, shades from H&M, shoes (barely seen) from Pucci.

Black & White

Spending my days enjoying all the Norwegian summer has to offer. Sunny days, long light summer nights, swimming in the ocean, light summer dresses and Norwegian strawberries. The best there is!

Outfit: Dress from H&M, sunglasses Marc by Marc Jacobs, bag from Mulberry, shoes of ebay.

Summer Leather

I find myself drawn to light leather this summer. Paired with cotton t-shirts and heels, it is quickly becoming a staple in my wardrobe. On my birthday I actually went to a summer sale and picked up this skirt, a blue and black leopard dress, a jacket and another leather skirt with linings for a bargain.
Summervacation is only a few days away and I cant wait to just relax by the ocean and soak up the sun in my new bikinis. Thank you for all the nice comments on my birthday, I really appriciate your feedback and support!

Birthdaygirl

Yesterday I celebrated my birthday with lots of good friends, champagne and good food. I had an amazing time and got lots of nice presents. Love, love, love the dress from River Island that I picked up in London after the SATC-interviews. I am guessing it will be used frequently this summer. I really cant wait for my summer vacation to start, I am longing for days spent at the beach just relaxing, reading crime novels and magazines.

Outfit: Dress from River Island, Shoes from Dorothy Perkins, belt vintage, bracelet from US.
