In the water, I am beautiful.

I'm borrowing a bike from a friend, going to start biking to work and everywhere. It's going to be nice, and I might buy a basket and put flowers in.

What to wear?

I bought a sparkling top, and a white top. I don't know which one to wear.

I've been thinking I should post some pictures of outfits I like on here. So I'm going to start with a picture of my Marc by Marc Jacobs dress.

Selfportrait, by me.

I've always felt that every picture you take is a photo of yourself. Whether fashion, documentary or polaroid; it's you. And I like it, cos that way you can always know who you are. And if you find yourself having second thoughts about anything, you can always turn to your pictures and smile, knowing that things will be alright.

Det går nok bra.

Today, sleep. Tomorrow, undress

It's friday, which means that the weekend is finally here. I'm gonna walk around thinking another night out, another dancefloor all weekend, hoping it'll rain so I can walk home alone feeling the raindrops hit my face and hands. Nothing beats autumn rain, and wet feet.



And I'll dance the night away, hopefully, listening to indie rock and people playing the piano. And just smile.

Skinny love.

Come on skinny love just last the year. Pour a little salt, we were never here.


I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine. In the morning I'll be with you.


Now all your love is wasted, so who the hell was I?


Who will love you?

Misread.

How come no-one told me that all throughout history the loneliest people were the ones who always spoke the truth. The ones who made a difference by withstanding the indifference. So I guess it's up to me now; should I take that risk or just smile?

So much we do.

Yesterday I had coffee with Panda. It was nice, just talking about nothing, watching a man talk to himself for one hour. Waiting for telephone calls. Afterwards I went home and cleaned my room, I'm moving out on the 1st of October. I can hardly wait.



Then Peter came over, and we shot a picture I've had in my head for days. It's a "polaroid" of a polaroid, with me in front. I like how you see my tattoo.

Wedding photography.

For a long time I've been in love with the photography style of Sean Flanigan, a Tacoma - Washington based wedding and documentary photographer. His soft lights and emotions is what captures me time and time again.



I only have one polaroid picture left in my camera, my very last for some time. I'm saving it for something special.

And, this time, we are really leaving.

The phone is ringing, but I'm not going to pick it up.

Weekend endings.

I don't want this weekend to end. Too much excitement in the air, and anticipation. Maybe some good things are in the making. I'm hoping.

Days are growing shorter.

It's almost autumn. So I'm gonna learn how to knit and make christmas presents for everyone I know. In most cases I'll probably only give them one sock, and tell them they're stuck with me for another year, so they can get their other one as well.

I haven't eaten anything today except some Tom & Jerry crackers. So I'm hungry, but I just can't be bothered with going outside buying food. I really just want to go home. Leaving for some job thing tomorrow. First Copenhagen, and then Lund in Sweden. I might just leave early from work to pack. Warm clothes and no high heels. I'd much rather jump on a plane to New York to breathe.

Falling, asleep.

I went to hang out with my girlfriends and plan a christmas shopping trip yesterday. We're going to Copenhagen on the 3th of December. I've decided to save up all my money until then and buy myself a Malene Birger dress, or an Alexander Wang knitted sweater with some Acne jeans. Or a wool crepe dress from Marc by Marc Jacobs or some new Jimmy Choo shoes. I will never decide, but it'll be nice anyway.

Back to reality

Back at work. I have 153 emails in my inbox, and my eyes are heavy from not enough sleep. Spent most of my night thinking about buying a smaller camera and start taking pictures of pretty things every day. I would do it with my polaroid camera, but I'm running out of film.

Elisabeth Toll

Monday's link from Even. When getting home today I'm going to make myself a cup of coffee and sit outside on the balcony drinking it and read The Orangegirl again. Then I'm gonna go for a walk and find whatever I'm looking for.

Blogs blogs blogs.

Well, we all know that I'm the hard worker and Even is the one getting all the attention. Well. Not only did he end up on massiv.no, but even the famous Facehunter took his picture yesterday outside of the Batlak and Selvig show.

I'm not jealous, I'm annoyed that I can't wear bow ties and look good.

Fam Irvoll

Craziest show of the season, every season? Of course we're talking about Fam Irvoll; designer of the famous and crazy. Her shows are always just so much fun and filled with stuff you never thought you'd see at a fashion show. Like a stripper, for example.

I am a fan of her clothes, but I wouldn't necessarily wear them. However she did have a knitted sweater I absolutely adored!


How great is that!? And now, back to work

Just finished another show. Was ok, I think. Liked a lot of the seams and the fabric looked great. But I thought that it jumped a bit everywhere. From one all black dress to a long flowing dress fading from white to a flowery pattern, and starting with leather pants. So, not sure about the whole thing as a show. BUT did love some individual pieces.




This is Henriette S. My favourite norwegian model. She's been doing some big things the last years, and also walks for Fashion Week every year, always doing the best job!


And I like these pants, but not the top so much. Too sugary sweet for me.


All pictures are taken by The Third Eye photography (Det Tredje Øyet), which I am a part of.

First day.

The lighting is shit. But besides that we had the best Fashion Week first day ever, not picture-wise, but everyone else-wise. Hopefully the lighting will get better today though. If not I have to kill myself.

Linn Renée Blegeberg, this years debutant, showed her clothes yesterday. She is so delightful and awesome. Here's a picture from her show :)

Frontline at OFW.

Starting from today and for the rest of the week, me and Even will cover Oslo Fashion Week with The Third Eye Photography. I'll update as often as possible with the best shows.

Swine flu and rain

It's been raining a lot lately. And work got to stressful. So I got the fantastically overrated swine flu and ended up sleeping for 16 hours. Now I'm finally on vacation from work. But I have to visit work anyway, to finish some stuff and tell my co-worker what to do.

I went to visit my mom and dad yesterday. And spent the night reading a book, forgetting to put on my shoes and take the bus home. So I slept in the same room as my beautiful sister, and woke up at 5AM from the worst nightmare I've had in years. Hopefully I'll sleep better tonight.
