Hiding in the bushes with Valentino

Whenever I go hiding in the bushes with my military force-entourage, I of course make sure to wear my finest attire. That entails full-look camouflage – and not in sad doucey colors – but in bright, summery silk textures. That is also why I was thrilled when coming across the latest camouflage printed ties from Valentino’ AW13 collection. Who else than the Italians understand the necessity of looking stylishly chic even under the pressure of the extreme outdoors!? Now, all I need is a helmet covered in grass and twigs to complete my look of the season.

Soulland X ADAX

Fedora caps, Cannabis leaves, starry skies and broken columns. Those are all symbols telling the history behind the Soulland brand, and emblems which mean the world to Chief designer, Silas Adler.

Mr. Saint Laurent

Mr. Hedi Slimane is known for his innovative thinking and inspiring design talent. Thus I’m in complete bliss vitnessing that the new face for the Saint Laurent AW13 menswear collection, is no other than goth-god, rock musician Marilyn Manson aka Brian Hugh Warner. (more…)

Branded by Bruce Weber

From time to time I need a moment of melancholy – I grasp Bruce Weber by the hand and ask him to take me over to Patti Smith. Let me share with you a moment of daydreaming, by quoting one of my favorite poems recently reprinted.

AESOP x Marimekko

Well, we are all ready for sunny times, shades and even ready to rub ourselves into extra protective sunscreen. However, living in a country with the same pre-menstrual mood as a female Hulk, we are contantly wrapped in snowy-white clouds and frozen cheeks. But no need to worry! When we have no access to the outsides, why not make the best of the insides? (more…)

Sophistication in fashion

Lately I have been bored by the governing street-style-fashion in vogue – worn sneakers, worn with worn jeans and college jackets, most preferably with leather slings. What I’m lusting for is being urged to pull of sophistication rather than a full-grown beard. Finally, I’m allowed – and even in a Scandinavian, more calm and classy way.

I have two words, one a numeral and one a pronoun – thanks Borsalino – I cannot wait till summer. Toasting in champagne, wearing my new Borsalino paper hat from ACNE – oh, summer is always in fashion.

DANSK in black n’ white and Purple Rain

The lastest issue of DASK magazine was themed from a black and white conception. The final issue became an ever-soo symbiosis of black and white, that even Michael Jackson (R.I.P) may have been confused about his true origin!

However, other Hollywood mega-stars have been widely inspired by a renowned Danish/ DANSK B/W mood board. Take for instance, Mr. Prince, who has been getting on stage and in front of his twitter camera in Moonspoon Saloon’s Purple collection, B/W jumpsuits – I guess our new cover model has now been found.
