Vivaldi – for two mandolins – classic.

Bon iver  - skinny love

Monday I met up with beautiful Amalie Adrian at her apartment at Christianshavn. Amalie is 19 years old and a ballet dancer at The Royal Danish Ballet in Copenhagen. Amalies wardrobe is very inspiring and she really has some items to die for. I especially like her turban (bought in Pede & Stoffer), vintage lace blouse, Chloé boots, Agent Provocateur underwear, dotted mini skirt, grey knee socks, animal printed vintage shoes, Ann Hagen leather dress and the black and white Stine Goya dress. 

Interview with her is coming up one of the next days.

I won the L’Oréal Professionel Young Designer of the Year Award

How long have you been designing?

For as long as I can remember

How does the design process work for you?

I always start out with gathering inspiration that initially is often very abstract. Normally I begin with exploring a certain mood and feeling that provides me with an idea of what direction I want to go in when looking for my visual research for the collection. Funnily enough, the prints are always the last thing I do.

What are you inspired by?

I’m inspired by anything that invokes a feeling in me, be it books, music, films, art. What always interests me is taking the known and placing it in an unknown context. (more…)

Supermodel Daria Werbowy was born in the Ukraine but moved to Canada when she was three years old. Today she is 25 years old and lives in Brooklyn, New York. She is renowned for her feline eyes and her insouciant style.

Werbowy lives in a former factory on the fifth floor loft in Williamsburg. Daria´s home could best be described as industrial meets decadent bohemian. Daria wanted a real old New Yorker house atmosphere, so she removed all the plaster lining on the walls. Werbowy´s style and her living space confirm her love of any kind of artistic expression, particularly paintings and music. In her bedroom she has placed her bed, according to feng shui rules, with the head facing east. Her home is inspired by her travels. She says everywhere she goes, she buys something new - She calls her home a “souvenir gallery”.

When she gets home, she likes to relax. She either draws or plays on her guitar; well at least she is trying…

- Daria´s enormous dressing room is just very enviable.

The pictures are from Australian Vogue March 2009.  

Edie Sedgwick was an American actress, socialite, model and heiress. She was one of Andy Warhol´s muses. She was a heroin addict, and she died because of that when she was only 28 years old. Despite that her style fascinates me!
