More from New York

First night, we went out for dinner and got organized.



On the set of Sex and the City 2! We saw Kim Cattrall in action and 80s costume.



Me and Merete visiting that famous doorstep. You know who lives here, right?



At the Sand-Galleri in West Village



At Rachel Antonoffs fashion show in Brooklyn.



At Fashions Night Out me and Merete met up with Alexander Wang. Nicest guy ever.



And celebrated with a glass of bubbles!

I cant really believe its been two weeks since New York Fashion Week already. But you know what they say, time flies. We had such a wonderful time, even though we worked a lot. It was so much happening at the same time. Fashion shows, interviews, events, shopping and fun, fun, fun. I am so sorry about the late update, but I hope you enjoy it.
My favorite moments from New York: Dancing with Alexander Wang (really!), Interview with Phillip Lim behind 3.1 Phillip Lim, Opening of Fashion Week, BCBG fashion show, Fashions Night Out (bananas!), shopping, sushi and vintageshopping. Thanks to Janet for the Divine Award!

New York Fashion Week

Hi Everybody! Hope you all are having a great time. I am in New York, covering New York Fashion Week and having a fab time. If you want to follow my adventures head over to minMote, because I dont think I will have time to update both blogs. We are working extremely long days to cover everything, and yesterday I got to be on the set of SATC 2! So much fun seeing Kim Cattrall in 80s costume. Today I was at the BCBG fashion show and had to pinch myself when Anna Wintour, Kate Lanphear, Suzy Menkes was sitting a couple of rows in front of me. I also met up with fellow blogger Rumi, such a sweet girl. Dont forget to check out the pictures and videos at minMote!

Fab Friday!

Just got home from work and finshed watching The Rachel Zoe Project, Season 2, courtesy of Youtube. I must say that I love the show, its hilarious and fun on so many levels. Season 2 did not yet disappoint and it all seemed like crazy madness fashion bananas! I am dealing with my own crazy life of the moment, I am telling you, theres just not enough hours in a day to make it all work. Next week I have fittings, clients, a makeover, and on Saturday I am going to be part of a huge event at Jernbanetorget, a fashion show and party that will last all day. If you live in Oslo, you should check it out at minmote.no
In between it all, I always have time for shopping, so I bought these pants with leather patches and the tie lace wedges that I love already. Have a great weekend!

Wearing: Mens shirt from H&M, pants from Gina Tricot, shoes Bianco and bracelets from ebay, Karma and H&M.

Fashion Week Bananas

Last week was Fashion Week in Oslo and I worked 24/7, so I am sorry there have been no updates. For my Norwegian readers, you have hopefully been following my blog at minMote. It was a great week, filled with great fashion shows and lots of inspiration. Now, I am so behind on everything, that I need to figure out what all of you have been doing! Hopefully I will be able to catch up over the weekend.
Here is a picture (sorry about the bad quality) from the opening day of Fashion Week, I am wearing blouse and jeans from Zara, shoes from Nine West, lots of silver bracelets (addicted) and Marc by Marc handbag.

Oslo Fashion Week

Hi everybody, I am currently covering Oslo Fashion Week and you can see all of my pictures from the shows at minMote. Its cool madness and lots of great Norwegian designers, so I am urging you to take a look. I am sorry that I dont have time to update both blogs, but hope you will be visiting my Norwegian blog.

Happy Friday!

I got this award from the ever so lovely Janet and it comes with the notion of revealing 10 interesting things about yourself. So here we go:

1. I always double check that the coffee/teamaker has been switched of, I also check that all the doors are locked, twice.

2. I cant live without chocolate, it would literally kill me. My favorites are M&Ms or Norwegian chocolate and I only need one little piece a day.

3. There is nothing quite like windowshopping in another country. I can spend hours in front of a beautiful store, if the window display is beautiful enough.

4. I am a Gemini, so I am very impatient. I always start a new project before I finish another. I also have dual sides, my husbands always jokes about that he married to different girls.

5. I am always on the hunt for vintagetreasures both clothes and furniture. To me they hold a story, a different kind of life, which makes them very interesting.

6. I hate the cold. I know, I live in the wrong country. Thats why I loved LA and the four years we spent there. There something about the sun that always make me in a good mood and put a smile on my face.

7. I love my job and I love fashion. I guess people say that all the time, but really, I believe I am very blessed. I could not imagine getting up in the morning if I was not passionate about what I do.

8. I use to always put myself down. I still do, but I am getting better. Believing in yourself and that you can do it no matter what, is a thing I think a lot of women struggle with.

9. I have to read before I go to bed. Its like I need to turn out the lights with something else than fashion. Preferably crime novels. The worse, the better.

10. I love Rachel Zoe. I know lots of people hate her and all that, but I do find her funny and see her as a woman of inspiration. She knows her stuff and shes sticking to it. Thats to me, is good business sense and dedication.

Enough about me! If you havent gotten this award, I am giving it to you!

Wearing: Pants and top from H&M, shoes from Aldo and sequincape of ebay.

Norwegian Summer

My days off are spent by the ocean, drinking the last rays of summer and having a great time with friends and family. Hope you are enjoying the summer as much as I am. On the days with rain and bad weather, I am contemplating my fall wardrobe and what will be my key items for fall. Have you startet fall shopping yet?

A Little Bit of Jerry

I love that glamorous look immortalized by supermodel Jerry Hall in the 80s. That sideswept hair is back in fashion, and I could not wait to try it out. So, for tonights party I opted for a new hairdo and som red lips. Wanna see some cool girls in great jumpsuits? Head over to Blueisinfashionthisyear!

Bubble Skirt

This was taken a couple of days ago, when we were going out for dinner. I am not so sure about the bubble skirt, but it kind of grows on me. However, I do LOVE the blue shoes, so I need to use them frequently. They do bring a splash of color to any outfit and they make my legs look so long. Which is always a good thing! Hope you are having a great monday!
Wearing: Gina Tricot jeans jacket, skirt from BikBok, tee from Cubus and shoes from Zara.

These shoes are made for walking

Or maybe not, but they are divine! They are going to be the summers dancing shoes, I am in love the blue electric color. I am off to do some bargain hunting at the sales and vintagestores, since the weather is a little gloomy. Perfect way to spend a saturday. Hope you all have an amazing weekend!!

Wearing: Blazer & shoes from Zara, Tights from Gina Tricot.

4 of july celebration

Hope you all had a wonderful 4 of July weekend! I spent the weekend sunbathing by the sea and reading magazines. In the evening I barbecued with friends, had some good food and great wine. I had a blast in my new outfit, which was a real bargain on sale.
Top: H&M, shorts: Lindex and shoes of ebay.

New summer dress

Outfit: Dress: H&M, Shoes: Bianco, Sunglasses: Ray-Ban and vintage Chanel handbag.
I am in love. You all know I love dresses, and this cought my eye right away. It reminds me of something of the Gucci spring catwalk. But at a price I can afford. I love the blue snakeskin print.

After a crazy day at the office, I mean can you believe the King of Pop is dead? Michael Jackson was one of my favorite artists and style icons in the late 80s. It still feels surreal and very sad that he has passed. I will always remember him as a style icon with that sequin glove, military jackets (so Balmain) and sequined jackets. Billy Jean is a classic I will never tire off.

I also popped by Zara today, and got some amazing high heels in blue on sale that goes perfect with this dress. Summer indeed. Happy friday, everyone!
Read more Norwegian fashion updates everyday at minMote.

My birthday was spent in the studio working on a new project and at the Norwegian ELLE party, were I had a blast! After I headed back home to dinner, wine and flowers from my husband.
Wearing vintage dress from Beyond Retro, Jessica Simpson heels and clutch from Zara. Thanks for all the wonderful text messages and emails congratulations!

Party Girl

Wearing: Zara blazer, vintagetop from San Francisco, Current Elliott jeans, Aldo shoes and a vintage handbag that I bought in Copenhagen.
Hope you all had an amazing weekend, I know I did. Summer has arrived in Oslo and I could not be more happy. For a party with new colleagues I choose sequins and jeans, as that always is a winner in my book. And yes, I have a thing for those Aldo shoes! Hope you all have a wonderful sunday!
