Er det mig, eller ser vi mere og mere til bÃ¥de net-trøjer, vilde læbestifter, Doc Martens og generelt ret eksperimenterende pÃ¥klædning i gadebilledet for tiden? Det synes jeg i hvert fald, sÃ¥ I den anledning har jeg sat mig for at vise jer denne fantastiske editorial, hvis I vil skrue tiden ca. 15 Ã¥r tilbage og gøre det helt rigtigt. Jeps, sen 90′er/millenium-stilen gnaver sig langsomt ind i trendyheden og jeg har bestemt mig for at jeg ikke vil klage, til trods for at der er visse beklædningsdele, jeg stadig har barndomstraumer omrking, men som titlen siger: it’s not what you wear, it’s the way that you wear it! SÃ¥ mÃ¥ske skulle man give sig ud i at eksperimentere med styling af millenium-tøj og se hvad der sker? Hvad synes I?

Is it just me or are we seeing more and more of net-tops, wild lipsticks, Doc Martens and generally more experimenting attire in the streets these days? I think so, so in that occasion, I decided to show you this amazing editorial, if you’s like to turn back time 15 years and do it right. Yep, the late 90′s/millenium style is slowly gnawing it’s way into trendiness and I decided that I’m not going to complain, even though I still have chilhood trauma about certain clothing items, but as the titles states: it’s not what you wear, it’s the way that you wear it! So should one start experimenting styling millenium clothes and see what happens? What do you think?

Igen er det sket! Jeg har nu officielt indrømmet overfor mig selt at min shoppestrejke er brudt pÃ¥ det groveste.. Men hvad gør det, nÃ¥r man kan fÃ¥ en fantastisk brugbar jakke og en taske, som jeg har sukket efter i mÃ¥nedsvis for kun 60kr i alt? Jo, du læste rigtigt, 60kr! Jeg var pÃ¥ genbrugsjagt i Aalborg i sidste uge og var sÃ¥ hammerheldig at finde den mest behagelige og fine hvide bomberjakke med kviltet mønster og en fin “doctor”-bag i lækker kvali.. Jeg har nemlig længe kigget pÃ¥ en taske af netop denne type til at bruge som kamerataske og denne opfylder alle krav, bÃ¥de æstetiske og rummelige. Hold fast, hvor gik jeg rundt med det mest fjogede smil hele dagen efter den genbrugstur.. Tilfreds? Bestemt!
Hvad synes I?

It happened again! I have now officially admitted to myself that my shopping strike has been broken severely.. But what does that matter when you can get an amazingly useable jacket and a bag I’ve been craving for months for only 60DKK? Yep, you got it right, 60DKK! I went thrift hunting in Aalborg last week and was so lucky to find myself the most comfy and adorable white bomber jacket with quilt detailing and a nice doctor’s bag in great quality. I have been looking for this exact kind of bag for so long, to ude as a camera bag and this one exeeds all expectations both when it comes to looks and roominess. Dang, I must have looked so goofily happy the entire rest of the day, when I bought these.. Satisfied? Definately!
What do you think?

SÃ¥ skete det – det I alle tiggede mig om, siden jeg fortalte jer om at jeg og min søster skulle rydde ud i garderoben.. Jeg har startet en Tictail. Dog er det sket udelukkende af den grund, at I lovede at I ville købe noget, sÃ¥ nu krydser jeg bare fingre for at jeg ikke har brugt timevis pÃ¥ at fÃ¥ den op at køre for ingen verdens skyld. Men alt jeg har at sige er: shop amok lige HER!

So it happened - the thing everybody begged me to do, ever since I told you that I and my sis were selling out from out wardrobes.. I started a Tictail! It only happened because a lot of you promised to buy something, so now I’m crossing my fingers and hoping that I didn’t spend huge amounts on time to make this happen for no reason. But all I have to say is: shop amok right HERE!

SÃ¥ er “looking back”-serien nÃ¥et til mine favoritkollektioner. Allesammen er nogle, der i Ã¥revis har sat sig fast i min hukommelse tyggegummi, da de, hver især, virkelig har noget ekstraordinært over sig. Den første, Balenciaga SS08-kollektionen var min allerførste favoritkollektion og er en, jeg forelskede mig i længe før jeg overhovedet startede bloggen. Dengang var jeg allerede ret interesseret i mode(eller, det har jeg altid været) og det var dengang alle mine favoritmodeller gik pÃ¥ catwalksene – Freja, Coco, Natalia, Sascha, Irina, Ã¥h de gode gamle! Kollektionen er jo helt noget for sig selv – man skulle næsten ikke tro at det var en RTW-kollektion, hvilket virkelig gør den fantastisk. Jeg elsker det vilde former og materialer og det faktum at, selvom der absolut ikke er skruet ned for noget, forbliver det stadig overskueligt og rent pÃ¥ grund af de præcise linier i tøjet. Jeg vil glædeligt eje hele kollektionen! Videre til Jil Sander SS11 – hvilke positive superlativer er der ikke at bruge om denne kollektion? Simplicitet, minimalisme mikset med maksimalisme, klare farver, overdimensionerede proportioner, perfekt styling og farvekombinationer der siger spar to! SÃ¥ snart kollektionen ramte catwalken(eller internettet for mit vedkommende) vidste jeg at det skulle være mig og alt det tøj. Jeg har faktisk forsøgt mig med at lede efter tøj fra den kollektion og sÃ¥, for en gangs skyld, bruge mange penge pÃ¥ ét stykke tøj, dog uden held. Men jeg drømmer stadig! Sidst har vi Roksanda Ilincics prefall 12-kollektion, som ogsÃ¥ fangede mig ret sÃ¥ hæftigt med sine skarpe proportioner og klare primærfarver – pÃ¥ et tidspunk hvor jeg netop var meget optaget af Bauhaus’ og De Stijls designæstetik og farvebrug. Jo, bÃ¥de Jil Sander og Roksanda Ilincic gjorde mig helt tosset efter colour-blocking og overdimensionerede proportioner pÃ¥ hver sin mÃ¥de, ligesom Balenciaga gjorde mig vild efter stive, skinnende materialer, vilde prints og skarpe silhouetter.. Og det gør de stadig!

Hvilke kollektioner sidder stadig fast i jeres hukommelse?

The “looking back”-series has made it’s way onto my fave collections. All of them are collections that for each their own reason have stuck to my mind like bubblegum, because they all have something quite extrardinary about them. The Balenciaga SS08 collection was my very first fave collection and one that I fell in love with long before I started my blog. Back then I was already quite interesten in fashion(well, I’ve always been) and back then, all of my fave models walked the runways – Freja, Coco, Natalia, Sascha, Irina, oldies but (super)goodies! The collection is quite something – you have a hard time believing it’s a RTW collection, which makes it even more fantastic. I love the wild shapes, materials and the fact that, even though the volume on everything has been turned way up, it still is uncluttered and clean because of the precise lines in the clothing. Onto Jil Sander SS11 – which positive superlatives cannot be used about this collection? Simplicity, minimalism mixed with maximalism, bright colours, overdimensioned proportions, perfect styling and colour combos that couln’t be any better! As soon as this collection hit the runway(or the internet in my case) I knew that we were meant to be together. I have tried to look for just one piece from the collection and, for once, spend big money on one single item, without any luck. I still keep dreaming, though! Latsly, the Roksanda Ilincic prefall 12 collection also caught me quite impetuously with it’s sharp lines, proportions and bright primary colours – at a time when I was pretty taken by Bauhaus’ and De Stijl’s design aesthetics and use of colours. Yes, both Jil Sander and Roksanda Ilincic hit the nail on the head and made me crazy for colour blocking and overdimentioned proportions in each of their own ways, just like Balenciaga got me head over heels for stiff, shiny fabrics, wild prints and sharp silhouettes.. And they all still do!

Which collections still stick to your minds?

Nu kommer den editorial, jeg, siden sidste mandag, har teaset for. Jeg lavede den med min søde og hamrendes dygtige veninde, Julie, der er nylig ejer af en hvid baggrund – perfekt til studie-billeder! SÃ¥ vi gik i kast med fjollet tøj, min hypermobile krop og yogaposeringer og her er sÃ¥ resultatet, som Julie, med sine ualmindeligt gode redigeringsfærdigheder har gjort endnu flottere end de var til at starte med. Jeg er ovenud tilfreds! Hvad synes I om det? Hvis I har lyst, mÃ¥ I hellere end gerne like dette indlæg pÃ¥ bloglovin‘, dele billederne og smide dem ud overalt pÃ¥ nettet, hvor I tror folk vil finde dem interessante. Julie og jeg har flere idéer til fotoserier klar og efter den lille succes med disse fine billeder, tvivler jeg ikke pÃ¥ at vi skal blive ved med at køre pÃ¥.

Here’s the editorial that I’ve, since last Monday, been teasing for. I did it with my sweet and super talented friend, Julie, who got a white background very recently – perfect for studio-shooting! So we got busy with silly clothes, my hyper mobile body and yoga poses and here’s the result, which Julie, with her mad editing skills has perfected. I’m more than content! How do you like it? If you want, you’re very welcome to like this post on bloglovin’, share these photos and throw them around the internet, where you’d think people would find them interesting. Julie and I have a lot more ideas for photo shoots and after the succes with these great shots, I have no doubt that we’ll keep going!
