Back in New York

Finally, back in New York, my favorite spot to charge my batteries.

Our first half year with Monty.

We’ve been dog owners for six months and it’s strange to imagine how life was before he entered.
It’s a joy far bigger than my expectations.

I´m old fashioned in many ways.

INSPIRATION

Loving traditions is one of them.

Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved traditions, and Christmas is the biggest one. Due to the current situation, I'll use the tradition as a shield this year.

INSPIRATION

I’ve been in love with the Bjäre area for many years. It’s a lovely piece of Sweden with a hilly landscape and a fertile agricultural land. This is where the first potatoes and strawberries of the season in Sweden grow.

My Wardrobe

Since I live in Sweden with lots of weathers, it means lots of clothes to match the daily forecast.

Role models and why we need them in our strive for elegance

INSPIRATION

We should always strive to be our best. That considers some thought. First, what would be my best me? When do I like myself?

The Elegance of Positano makes me fall in love. Again.

Travel

I have always been in love with Italy. But not until recently I had the chance to visit Positano.
