Basics

I love the colours red, green and blue in this type of unison.

The End Of 2010

December is a beautiful month. Here's the collage.

Pre-christmas yoga to lovely tunes, such as George Michael's "Jesus to a Child" and Salem Al Fakirs' "Astrounaut". Makes me forget about the stress outside.

-

Camilla's christmas shoes - one to have her drink in, the others to wear. Stilletto champagne glass designed by Christian Louboutin. Miu Miu studded platform boots.

The scenery at the Opera House is always beautiful in winter.

All ready for my last Nutcracker party. Too bad I'm only a servant - a very posh servant that is.

-

Eating x-mas porridge and cookies at Nina Jarebrink's new flat was a treat. Christmas-kitch is the new black - combine a plastic tree with a fake fireplace and you've got the look.

-

Coming home for christmas to a new house is strange. It's also nice.

2010 has been a fantastic year with a lot of possibilities. Let 2011 be even better.

The X-Mas Pose

When you are drunk you can be allowed to all sorts of poses in front of the camera! Here I am at the Christmas Cabaret Party at school together with lovely Kristin.

-

Wearing red is perhaps a christmas cliché, but when the red is signed Batlak og Selvik it's a whole different story. Tee, necklace, muff and bracelets all by Batlak og Selvig, highwaist trousers and boots from Acne, clutch from Balenciaga and black bracelet from H&M. My hair was done by Ron at Adam og Eva Gamlebyen.

Merry Christmas

A Hint of Peppermint

I was recently blogged by Ada Christine who runs the cool blog A Hint of Peppemint - www.ahintofpeppermint.wordpress.com. She took this picture which I really like. Good Iphone skills! Thanks for the nice words in the post.

Kolbein Falkeid - Risikabelt

Denne tilsynelatende sikkerheten din:

tynn stålis på livet etter en frostnatt.

Slik bærer du verden. Preiket

sklir trygt på deg fordi det er vektløst.

Selv går du gjennom

hver gang du våger deg utpå.

Vet ikke om du klarer deg. Håper.

Men for tung varme er bedre enn tom vind.

My Feet Are On A Scarf

I did a shoot for designer Camilla Bruerberg a couple of years ago. And now my feet are on one of her fantastic woollen scarfs. That has never happened to me before. The photo is by Lucas Renlund. Check out www.camillabruerberg.com.

In D2

I did an interview with D2 in an article about how people dress can provoke others. They wanted me in this interview because of I use pieces for women in my outfits. I talked about why I choose to dress the way I do and also how people react and why it can be provoking. They also did interviews with other people dressing "outside the box".

I'm wearing dress and top by Batlak og Selvig, trousers by G-Oslo, shoes from Acne and bracelets by Camilla Prytz.

T-Michael

I did this shoot for T-Michael's new collection a couple of weeks ago. We had been talking for some time about working together, and because of Carlos Santana I was going to Bergen. It was a fun job, because I had to both do the make up, hair and styling. Michael wanted me to put together the outfits as if it was me who would wear them for different occassions. The first looks I made very sharp putting emphasis on the clean cut tailoring and using almost only whites, black and shades of grey together. I wanted of the other looks to look more laid back and accidental, but now more made up with skin toned lips. The pictures are taken by Bent René Synnevåg - check out his website http://www.notbent.com/. Also see www.t-michael.com.

Tsumori Chisato's Rock Band

I've always wanted to be in a rock band. At the Tsumori Party, this dream actually came into real life - sort of.

At Mulberry Press Show S/S 11

This oversized Bayswater from the coming S/S collection is from b to the e to the autiful. Love the color and the leather quality. I met nice Maria at this event and she wrote some nice words and posted some pictures of me on her blog. http://mariaskappel.no/2010/11/03/jonas/ . I did not wear purple lipstick by the way!

-

I wore my favourite hat in the world right now by Henrik Vibskov, coat from Burberry and belt from Nina Jarebrink.

Sarah's Celine

It's so beautiful and, yes of course- minimalistic - that I can't write much more.

Badges

I saw these nice maritime badges at a taylor in Soho. I should have bought them and sewn them on one of my military jackets. Too bad I didn't ...

Coco Maya

Coco Maya is one of the nicest patisseries I have ever been to. Perfect for breakfast or tea. Very subtle chic. They also have a great chocolate store next door. Has indulgence ever looked better?

At Hotel How

During my stay in London I got to stay at my dear friend Sarah's place. I snapped some pictures of some of my London looks at her lovely flat!

-

In the top picture I'm wearing hat by Henrik Vibskov, long cardigan from Balenciaga, jumpsuit from Chloé and fantastic necklace from Camilla Prytz. The fab sunglasses are from the collaboration between Maison Martin Margiela and Cutler and Gross - and I got to be one of the very first to wear them on the street!

In the bottom picture I'm wearing jacket and bag from Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, shirt and boots from Acne, trousers from Alexander McQueen, belt from Balenciaga and necklace from Camilla Prytz.

Cardona Bonache

Cardona Bonache is a Barcelona-based brand I saw at Door Studios in Paris. They use technical and rare materials gaining great texture and look through folding techniques and graphic prints. The cuts are simple, very Scandinavian friendly, a great contrast to the quality and look of the materials. Thumbs up!

The 30th Anniversary of Tsumori Chisato

A great party during Paris Fashion Week was Tsumori Chisato's 30th anniversary. The interior and decorations were fantastic!
