Festival Necessities

Inspirational pictures before packing to a festival is just as important as bringing sunglases (hvertfall i mine øyne).

to be posted ELLE & ESMOD

ELLEs sommerfest gikk av stabelen på onsdag, og samtidig som kjendisene nøt godt av Campari og champagne viste avgangsstudentene på ESMOD fram sine (for det meste)nyskapende kreasjoner på Ballroom. Mange bra bilder ble tatt, de jeg har har jeg ikke ennå(hvis det går an å formulere det slik). Såh - foreløpig får dere kose dere med bildene på Elle bloggen o.l.  :)

(Let's call this an info-post, rather than a normal post - since posts without pictures are lame!)

Indie Queen/Musical Artist


Sick of the Jessica's, Paris's, Lindsay's, and Britney's of the world? I don't know about you, but as influential these girls have been in fashion I feel like they mainly end up in the same place of homogenous beauty - big curls, fake bake, boho confusion.. Enter Charlotte Gainsbourg (and Lou Doillon, in former post) a style maven that is more Sartorialist then Perez-Hilton.

charlottegainsbourgforgerarddarel1

British-French Charlotte Gainsbourg hit the fashion and talent jackpot from birth, as both parents are actors-slash-singers (her mother is Jane Birkin - yes, the famed Hermes Birkin bag is named after her).

charlotte gainsbourg

She's got that effortless thrown-together-but-so-chic look down that the French are famous for. Influenced by her mother?s era and has undertones of 1960s London ? think tall waisted pants, fitted leather jackets, and blousy tops. She is vamped up for ethereal editorials, goes low-key for press junkets, or chooses eclectic hit-or-miss dresses for the red carpet. She has the kind of tall, long-lined body that clothes love to hang on ? especially Balenciaga who draws inspiration from Gainsbourg as muse du jour.

charlotte gainsbourg1

As cool as she looks, the biggest inspiration I draw from her (and her sister!) is the beauty that comes naturally from being one?s self, not from trying to be what?s hot now.

I thought the cowboy boot trend went the way of trucker hats (or back to the rodeo, depending on who you ask), but leave it to a chic Parisienne to have us coveting them all over again. I think Charlotte Gainsbourg looked impeccably laid-back in a leather jacket, slouchy tee, and faded denim at the Antichrist photo call in Cannes. Tell me: Do the worn-in boots tie the look together, or is the whole ensemble better suited for a cattle drive?

They're still IT

Charlotte Gainsbourg and Lou Doillon are still in the spotlight. The two daughters of the famous actress and model Jane Birkin (one with Serge Gainsbourg as father) did grow up amongst famous singers, actors and designers - still, these girls got tallent.
   
At the age of nine, Lou Doillon's appearance was already distinctive, with Indian leggings under short dresses, worn with Gratefull Dead T-shirts and rollerblades and long dreadlocks. By the time she was 11½, she had tattoos and a stud in her tongue. The french model and actress(and singer) has a distinctive way of dressing be it with a studded leather jacket, a hat or ripped jeans. Here's a few shots

loudoillon

Charlotte Gainsbourg made her music and acting debut a while ago, following in the footsteps of her mother (and her half-sister) she's also started modelling. Being friends with Balenciaga's head designer is not a bad thing..
Posting some photos of Charlotte later.

Surface 2 Air <3 Sølve Sundsbø

The french brand Surface 2 Air has signed an exclusive cooperation with the well-known Norwegian photographer, Sølve Sundsbø. The brand has already designed a men's collection with the ûbercool electronica group Justice, but now there's time for something for the ladies!

The Norwegian photographer is being very successfull abroad, so this cooperation is without doubt one of the more exciting ones.  It's a limited edition collection consisting of dresses, t-shirts and bags, which are only to be found in 20 of the world's leading fashion retailers. Lot333 in Bergen happen to be one of the lucky ones chosen!

We congratulate, and exhale in relief now that we know that the collection can be obtained  in little Norway.

Chained

This fall there's undoubtedly arriving loads of chunky gold cuffs, statement necklaces with satin sash or Swarovsky crystals and luxurious jewelry.
However some are more wearable than others. Three of my favourites this fall are the new jewelry creations from
Janis by Janis Savitt. She has made some lovely, big multi-chain necklaces. They're massive and luxurious , but still simple (...and overprized, as the rest of the newly arrived designjewelry).

The Queen of Cool knows what you're wearing next month

km210509

In the column of Things That Never Get Old, we have gummy bears, True Blood reruns, beach days, and Kate Moss for TopShop.  Though the style icon's first collection launched two years ago, its continued stream of "oh my gosh, where did you get that?" keeps us coming back for more.

Kate's High Summer collection is no different, and you've got a nice little preview below. Imagine yourself wearing the boho-inspired outfits to a summer rooftop party - something else that never, ever gets old!

Fashoin-forward legs

I was looking forward to putting on my  cut-off denimshorts today, but the weather betrayed me. Therefore I feel like posting some - hopefully inspirational, suggestions to tights/legging to wear if the sun's not out. Colour-popping, creative patterns or ripped - there are many options.
leggings og tights

When the sunbeams have their return, be even more fashion-forward and put on your cycling shorts!
Muccia Prada, Alexander Wang and Michael Kors are only some of the designers who've already dressed up their models in this new trend.

MiraMira

Hun synger, shaker, designer klær,solbriller og smykker, hekler bikinier og lager dokumentar. Mira Craig lanserte på mandag sin nye plate, i tillegg til å vise fram sin nye kleskolleksjon på Sjømannsskolen. Jeg var der og hadde den store glede av å trippe rundt på scenen i hennes kreasjoner.
Mye pastell, foldeskjørt, og skinnende tights, pelshetter og store smykker, glitter og show. Sko fra sex-butikk hadde mira trukket om, fylt med perler(ja, det går faktisk annå "fylle" sko) og pyntet med blonder... veldig søte, bare umåtelig vanskelige å gå på.
Legger ved noen (så som så) bilder .. video og bedre bilder kommer om noen dager.

Hvordan beskriver du stilen din?
-Jeg er inspirert av 60 og 70-tallet. På den tiden pushet virkelig folk sine egne grenser i forhold til mote og livsstil. De fleste av klærne mine er vintage, men jeg liker også å kjøpe meg designersko og vesker. Alt i alt blir dette en god blanding av nytt og gammelt, som reflekterer min stil.

Them tied bows

Forget the economic gloom and doom - darlings, summer is almost here! Har du en liten 'dandie' innabords har du sikkert hoppet på trenden allerede. Hvis ikke, it's time! Them bow ties are arriving, for real.

Stylist/writer/designer Laurent Desgrange has just released his new, fancy range of bow ties (below). Lovely! Laurent Desgrange


bow tieslaurent desgrange

Den klassiske sløyfen har funnets helt siden 1600tallet, så den er jo ikke et nytt fenomen. Sist gang den hadde sin storhetstid var på 60tallet, og nå er den altså tilbake for fult. De effektfulle tingestene er ikke lenger forbeholdt høytid og fest. So girls and boys, tie them bows on.

Whats your opinion on the new  trend? Any personal stylingsecrets on them tied fabrics? Do tell!

Model as Muse

Some of the women who have helped turn fashion into fantasy...

Dorian Leigh
Wistful femininity. Five marriages. Landed the cover of Bazaar at age 27 (in 1944).. etter å ha sagt at hun var 19.
dorianleigh

Dovima
Discovered when housewife in Queens. Described by Richard Avedon as the "last of the great elegant, aristocratic beauties". When she posed with elephants for him in Paris (1955) she created a perfect fashon storm. The resulting images have long been among the world's best-loved fashion photographs
dovima

Suzy Parker
The first model to earn more than $100 an hour. Parker was the face of postwar American glamour and she inspired Audrey Hepburn's character in the 1957 film Funny Face.  "My most challenging and complicated of muses" (Avedon)
suzyparker

Twiggy
Twiggy's doe-eyed charm and leggy, androgynous looks made her the ideal mannequin for the mod looks of the mid-'60s.

twiggy

Marisa Berenson
Elsa Schiaparelli's granddaughter's golden glow made YSL call her the "girl of the '70s."
marisaberenson

Jerry Hall
The Texan was (fittingly) discovered on a beach in Saint-Tropez. She is the mother of four of Mick Jagger's children.
jerryhall

Iman
The stunning Somalian transcended color barriers, becoming one of the top models of the '70s. Now married to David Bowie, she is founder of Iman Cosmetics.

Cindy Crawford, Tatjana Patitz, and Stephanie Seymour
In contrast to the colorful glitz of the previous decades, the rise of fresh-faced supermodels and stark photography coincided with the clean, pared-down minimalism that became the hallmark of the '90s.
cindycrawfordtatjanastephanieseymourde437678

Linda Evangelista
Catapulted from the ranks to supermodel status. Together Evangelista, Christy Turlington, and Naomi Campbell were called "the Trinity," who, Evangelista once said, didn't "wake up for less than $10,000 a day.
lindaevangelistade25439496

Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell
People loved Turlington's squeaky-clean professionalism and Campbell's saucy swagger.
christyturlingtonnaomicampbellde60043111

Kate Moss
At five foot eight, Moss was the antisupermodel. Her arrival on the scene in 1990 heralded the waif look and changed fashion's aesthetic.
katemossde21862570

Gisele Bündchen
A reigning supermodel of the decade. Need I say more?
giselebundchende14239692

Natalia Vodianova
Natalia led a Russian-model invasion.
She's now a mother of three.
nataliavodianovade36442155

Daria Werbowy
The Canadian's gaze is instantly recognizable, as she has been the face of many top luxury brands.

Lily Donaldson
The 21-year-old Brit is a favorite of photographers for her easy 21st-century beauty.

That was some. There is, of course, a lot more of them inspiring beauties -- but I figured this post needed to come to an end.
