the universe and me

me and the universe have become great friends. she finds little ways to make my day and give me faith in the coincidences of signs and life. this morning as i was listening to a higher power (of course) i look down to my feet and see these two headlines.

note to self: sweden is in the cards.

IDA SJÖSTEDT has been designing since 2001 and shows at Stockholm Fashion Week. Her spring collection is fun, frilly and feminine and does a good job in summarizing her distinct style. The collection has a regal theme and pays homage to queens throughout history, from Marie Antoinette's naturalistic field wear to Anne Boleyn's daring, dark gowns.

how swede of you!

September is officially the month of all things Sweden! Although, techinically my past year or so has been all about obsessing about anything Scandinavia.
Today I'm loving this shoot for the line Ida SjÖstedt (more to come about them later) styled by Sofie Krunegard and photographed by Marcus Palmqvist.

i'm on my way to the you ess ay

Jens. My love. 

I check his website everyday. I write him emails about him coming to Toronto. He writes back. He doesn't have any plans to come anytime soon. He is very sweet in his responses. I would cut off my right arm to see him. And now! He has a North American show...in L.A. Far away, yes. But closer than Australia (where he lives now). At the Mondrian Skybar, it looks so beautiful. And...it's free! To fly that far for one night with Jens? 

here's looking at you, kid!

I stumbled across Sandra Freij's photography while I was researching Swedish stylists, film makers and other creatives. Her work for MILK magazine is the most adorable shoot I've ever seen. I've been noticing amazing children's fashion photography lately and this is probably the best example of it. Enjoy!
