ivorie

I have a new favorite perfume. Ivorie from Balmain. Smells fresh of jasmine, orange & manadarin essence, pachuli and vanilla, light and subtle- a great compliment to my other frequent scents.

miniature

Three favorites in my beauty bag that are perfect in size for short weekend getaways with only handluggage. Scrub & Beauty flash balm from Clarins that ix27ve used on and off for years. I love that the scrub is quite grainey, so you can feel that it actually works and removes dirt and impurities. New in my bag is this serum from Transderma-R, Ix27ve only used it for about ten days and i must say wow! I can see a difference in my skin- itx27s...

elle beauty awards

Finally an outfit! This is what I wore last night to the Elle Beauty Awards, where my darling and date for the night Linda, took home the award for Make-Up Rolemodel of the Year. I came straight from work and had about 15 minutes to get ready, threw on this white suit from Zara (two years old) vintage earrings and YSL bag. Linda wore jumpsuit from H&M Exclusive Concious Collection, Dr.Martens x Agness Deyn heart clutch, and jewelry by Maria B...

beauty

This coming friday is the launch of H&Mx27s new concept & Other Stories. They open their first flagship store in London, and their webshop will launch as well. Of what Ix27ve seen from the collection my favorite has to be the beauty section, as I like the packaging design. The beauty products hav

brown sugar

Two new favorites in my bathroom that smell divine and are made from natural ingredients. Brown sugar body wash and lotion from Body Farm. Ix27ve been extremely good when it comes to moisturizing since I got back from my vacation- I want this tan to last all winter!

orange, it's obvious

I never miss getting pampered in this city. On my toes i opted for Essiex27s x27Orange, itx27s obviousx27! Goes well with tanned feet. My go to salons for quick beauty fixes in the city? Either Palette or Ten Ten.

price matters

Ix27ve had my macbook at service for the past two days, Ix27ve had a cable stuck in the headphone outlet for almost 6 months, extremely annonying, and the warranty didnx27t cover it. Luckily they fixed it at the apple store here for almost a penny. Everything is a fraction of the price here, even when it comes to the things that should cost the same. A few weeks back I got a Kérastase hair treatment since my hair has been quite dry- it cost 6...

the elephant palette

How cute is this? This make up palette from Chantecaille helps raise awareness and funds for orphaned baby elephants in Kenya. I really like the Ivory and Iron ore (the brown) shades, but would be lying if I were to say I was buying this because of the colors and not because of the elephants. Thanks to Weibke Stranz for the tip! Now time for breakfast in Hong Kong! ...

rituals

A new favorite scent right now is this one from Rituals with notes of lemongrass and neroli. Makes me long for my winter trip to Asia, thats fast approaching. Rituals just opened a shop at Arlanda Terminal 5 (Stockholms Airport) and a new desk at NK. Worth checking out!

crop

So the big news seems to be that the first snow fell here in stockholm last night, guess fall is over for this year. No more bare legs. But I donx27t wanna chat about snow, but Nyok Wesslius beautiful black cropped hair. Wish I had the guts to experience more with my head of hair, but Ix27m too c

Byredox27s new travel cases that are made to hold their 12ml perfume travel vials. Ix27m a sucker when it comes to keeping everything nice and neat when travelling, love nice shoe bags, laundry travel pouches and leather passport holders. You can even get your leather holder monogramed with your i

dye it

Ix27m taking the evening flight tonight, so I have time to fix a bunch of stuff before I go, dry cleaners, office, ironing, etc. By the way, last night I dyed my hair (as those of you who follow me on instagram would have seen already), so say good bye to the terrible redish streaks and roots above

hot rollers

Ix27m so sick of my hair lately. Thinking of dying it a dark choclate brown, had that a couple of years back. But today i just put it up in hot rollers, which takes forever since I have so much hair! Now Ix27m off to a meeting to plan and structure up everything for this busy fall. Oh and my dri

cocoa

There is nothing better than the scent of cocoa butter on your sunkissed skin during the summer. These are two favorites of mine that I return to each summer season. Thanks to my dude for picking up on that, and buying me a new set.

photochromic polish

Canx27t decide whether to paint your nails baby pink or coral? Well with this new polish from Ruby Wing you wonx27t have to, since it changes color in the sunlight! I guess this works somehow through reversed photochromism, where the polish has different absorption spectra through the exposure to

Three mini bottles that I always bring in my overnight bag? Anti-bacterial hand gel from CO Bigelow pharmacy in NY (ok this one I always carry in my hand luggage- you can always be prepared for germs!) Mini moroccanoil (put it in my hair everynight before bed), Dermalogicas overnight repair serum (l

tousled

Best way to achieve that tousled surf hair look? Lernberger Stafsing Beach Spray. I like that it leaves a soft texture without getting my hair tangled, and of course it has UV protection.

face-body-hair

Three summer essentials in my make up bag. Dermalogica solar defense booster in SPF 30 for my face, Nutrogena Ultra sheer body mist sunblock, and Moroccanoil Glimmer shine finishing spray for my locks. My elephant print make up bag is from Svenskt Tenn, a favorite of course!

wakakaede

I have a new favorite on my lips - Sensai rouge in shade Wakakaede 04. Perfectly creamy and matte. In other sadder news I got my phone stolen on the tube yesterday. So watch out for those pick-pocketers! Itx27s very weird being without a phone - quite a challenge actually, hate to admit it but

My favorite fragrance right now is Lanvinx27s Couture. I think itx27s perfect for summer and daytime wear with itx27s raspberry, peony flowers (my favorite!) and musk notes.

on my desk

I got the new Sensai Cellular performance kit, which I canx27t wait to try! A holistic approach to anti-ageing, thatx27s meant invigorate the skin on a the cellular level, sounds pretty high tech to me, but I do like Kanebo Sensaix27s products. Also on my desk some new golden armour.

blue scale

Decided to do something fun with my nails yesterday, and since i didnt have any microbeads to try the caviar manicure, i opted for five different shades of blue. Midnight Blue from Lancôme, Big Smoke from Butter London, Chanel Blue Boy, Chanel Coco Blue and Gina Tricot Lilac Me (ok so not really a

How cool is this? I really like it in black. I guess you could do this quite easily yourself, just get microbeads at your local craftstore. Has anyone tried?

natural

For the past few weeks Ix27ve skipped wearing make up. I usually use Kanebo Sensaix27s foundation but with summer approaching I prefer to not cover my skin, besides some blush (MAC in the shade x27pinch mex27) and lip balm (Papaw ointment or Kiehls #1 lip balm). I am however looking for a good powder cover up for evening wear, and preferably with SPF as the sun is quite strong this time of year, even past 6pm. Ix27ve used Bare Minerals a lot be...

soapism

Re-painting an apartement sure is hard work. I donx27t have any outfit photos to thrill you with since Ix27ve been wearing trashed jeans, tee and white paint all over me for the past 48n hours. This soap from Katarina Nyman is a favorite in my bathroom, and I can also inform that it works just fine when it comes to washing off paint stains. My renovation is coming along just fine- even if slow, and if you want some sneak peeks youx27re best of...

for hair

Two new favorites in my bathroom when it comes to taking care of my hair. I finally got myself a hairbrush, previously Ix27ve only had a comb, and rarely used it. This one is from Lernberger Stafsing and is really soft on the hair. So now Ix27ve started brushing my hair each night before bed, just like Rapunzel. My hair has been quite dry this past winter so another routine now for me before the summer season is a few drops of Maroccan Oil Tr...
