The shredded jean is back

Shredded, Ripped and torn denim: Just when you thought it was over… it’s back. The shredded denim embodies the undone look of the 90s: all ripped denim, oversized silhouettes and unfinished hems. Now the torn denim shorts and shredded jeans hit the street once again. This time with shots of colour in the weft that bring bright accents to rips and fringe, this gives frayed and raw edged denim a whole new potential.

Typography Sketch Books

As I shared with you earlier, I love books and now I just came across a book I must own; Typography Sketch Books a super cool and inspiring book. It gets into the minds of designers who create type faces, word images and logos through their personal sketch books.

Pick up your own copy and get started sketching your own letters!

Rainy Landscape

The Danish summer is not always warm and sunny but always beautiful and inspiring. When I was in my family's cottage this weekend, I was completely fascinated by the rainy landscape seen through the windows.

ELLE Decoration

I love everything that has to do with design and therefore I look forward to the 24th of september when ELLE Decoration will be published in Denmark for all first time. I always buy the foreign versions of the cool interiors magazine when I travel, so I am curious whether the Danish version can live up to my high expectations.
 


Here are some of my interior design inspiration from Pinterest:

Friedrichshain

Last time I was in Berlin, I explored the neighborhood Friedrichshain. It is Berlin's smallest, a traditional working-class neighborhood, after the Wall came down it was taken over by students, artists and squatters. With time, Friedrichshain has become cleaner and is now one of the hippest neighborhoods in Berlin. Affluent people moving into the district, cafes and shops followed. Friedrichshain is a glimpse behind the facade and in to the originality of Berlin.

Pastel colors has been strong trend in the spring/summer 2012 global catwalk, and is now working its way from fashion into beauty. Chanel and marc by Marc Jacobs showcased a rainbow of ice-cream hair colors on the pre-summer 2013 runway. Also celebrities such as Kelly Osbourne and Lady Gaga have been spotted with sorbet colored hair. So do you dare to try this trend?

Street Art in Berlin

One of my favorite things about Berlin is to just walk around and soak up the city's atmosphere and be inspired by all the wonderful street art. The last time I was there I bought a book I definitely would recommend; Street Art in Berlin by the photographer Kai Jacob.  Kai has observed this scene for many years, gives an insider’s view of the street art. He presents the artwork, portrays some of the most important artists and describes their techniques and forms. All in all a good art guide through the streets of Berlin.
