Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months

About Me

.. Lucky for me as a girl with a serious addiction to glossies, I am (thanks to the nice fellows at Egmont Magazines) starting up a new fashion mag, Modette, in Sweden. Yay! Read brilliant Eleonores fashion blog (in Swedish) on www.modette.se, and stay tuned.adivb

My Interests

Dates with my husband. Nursing my magazine baby. Blowing my shopping budget. Hanging out with friends. Ripping down my ugly wallpaper.

I'd like to meet:

Already met him. But also:* Friends. * Personal heroes. * Creative people.But (and there is a but): Even if you consider yourself creative (and you probably are), I'm not interested in promoting your band (even though I'm sure it's great). So don't spam me.

Music:

.. Check out this MySpace MP3 Player !

Movies:

Station Agent, Walk the line, Brokeback Mountain, Groundhog Day, Dogville, Wallace and Gromit, Gladiator, Lukas Moodysson's happy movies and anything by Baz Luhrmann. Yes, I know, I'm impossible to catagorize.

Television:

Well, Buffy will always be no 1, but through the years I've also developed addictions for Lost, Prison Break, America's Next Top Model, West Wing, Friends, Sex and the city, Frasier (Oh, Niles), Scrubs, anything with Ellen Degeneres and/or Spike (from Buffy).

Books:

Loving Jane Yeardley right now, and always open books by Joyce Carol Oates, Mike Gayle and JK Rowling. Oh, and don't miss Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, it's bloody fantastic.

My Blog

Today I... eh, I'm stopping the "Today"-thing now.

THis is me being pale in my Macbook photobooth.I'm not as miserable as I look, promise. I'm quite chipper actually - Grey's anatomy is on in five, and I have lemoncurd icecream in the freezer, so what...

Today I'm online. And every other day too. Apparently.

So I got this new online symbol for this page, since the old one stuck out like a sore thumb in the new layout and that was obviously not acceptable. And I'm very happy with the little phone I got ins...

Today I had an Extreme Makeover.

Yes. I'm a lousy blogger. Sorry. I've been a little busy, with the house (no, it's not pretty yet), the job (no, the mag is not launched yet) and the life (no, I haven't been to Australia yet).But I w...

Today I live in my new house!

Well, it's been a while - sorry about that. Moving house actually messes up everything, doesn't it. The phone's not working yet, nor the Internet. And we can't find the cell phone chargers, so in a ne...

Today I fought for Victor & Rolf.

Yes, I didn't really plan to, since I'm not that impressed with the Victor & Rolf for H&M stuff. But of course I had to go and watch the craze, and I thoght I might get my hands of a pair of the shoes...

Today was crap.

Well, this was a crap day. Went to Malmö for a business meeting, and for once I was booked on an early flight home, at 3.45 pm. And that went well...1. Plane breaks down. All passengers has to get off...

Today I cut off my hair!

Yep, it's gone, the big ball of hair by my right ear on the main pic! I haven't decided how pleased I am with the new cut yet, I could've gone shorter I think. Well, it feels great to have a change in...

Today I did 13 covers. And sold my apartment.

Well, look at that. I've totally neglected my poor blog. Sorry!So today I did a lot of covers, more than a years worth. Of course not by myself, but with my lovely art director. Developing a new mag i...

Today it snowed!

Well, not in Stockholm obviously, but in the northern part of Svea Rike. My god, that is early, isn't it? With that I bid you goodnight (and behold, I discovered the blog clock - and used it! All the...
