Sofia M. Westin

A couple of months ago I was a stylist for this up-and-coming Swedish designer Sofia Westin. The photoshoot was a blaast and the pictures turned out great!




Here are a few of them.


get up, and KICK ass

I called LCF today, wondering about a letter that I am yet to receive.. Apparently, they have not changed my country of residence, so the letters have been sent to a "Bergbyvägen" in Sweden.. and not Finland. nice. Loving the postal-service right now.
Well anyway.. I have to take this IELTS-test before starting in september, so I have tried to contact the Finnish-British society for about a week now, and today a snooty voice told me that they're out on holiday until the 5th of August. Panic attack panic attack panic attack ! Well, I called LCF again if I can take the test in the UK, and so I will.  All I have to do is move a bit earlier than planned. But why not? I will have a few weeks to settle down, find a job, find peace.


It's funny how things work out, when you make it work.

FABULOUS

bodies.

Most of you know that I am an aspiring model. This summer is about toning my body and eating healthy.. hmm has gone not so good until now. But now I am starting at a gym, after a 2 month break. I don't want the big bulgy muscles. I want firm lines, that's all.




This is Lasse P from Unique Models. He is my idol.

Colour me Kubrick

Tomorrow I'm about to do something I haven't done in a long long time. I will colour my hair at home. For about 4 years now I have gone to a professional to have my hair coloured in every tone there is. But tomorrow my very good friend will do it for me. It is much cheaper, but on the other hand, it is not as certain that it will turn out as you hoped. So we will see..  How do you feel about colouring your hair?

papa's shoes



I didn't have any shoes to wear today so I took my father's biker - boots.
Then he gave them to me. I am now a proud owner.

the first outfit goes lumberjack



Just so you people know, this is my very first today's outfit. It can only get better.. haha?


Shirt: Urban Outfitters
tee: Filippa K
pants: Carin Wester
belt: vintage
watch: Casio

Bloody vischan..

There's something about the countryside that makes me want to puke. There's nothing going on! The quietness makes me slowly want to pack my bags and get the hell out. My rhythm for the moment is way of in never neverland it feels like. I am not even tired at 3 am and when I wake up at 10:30 my head is about to explode. I need this little annoying things like carhorns screaming, ambulance-sounds, people talking on their cellphones, the STRESS. Well I'm clearly a city-person. I could never imagine living on the countryside, they don't even have Sushi here!! 
Which one do YOU prefer?




BUMBAGS!

When I was in London I had one thing on my mind to find :  a Bumbag. And so I did. I found this really fabulous one from Marc Jacobs.
Bumbags are very in at the moment, but they don't suit just anyone. They aren't really the most beautiful accessories, but they sure are handy. No more putting your belongings in bags,purses, (and not to mention pockets), the Bumbag does it all, and it's a lot safer. Maybe this Finnish trend has finally hit me, I can't really say, but it sure is Fab-u-lous!

 

Thursday.. say thursday




Today is one of those days you wish that you could stay in bed and not do a thing. The weather is quite dreadful, my mother is stressing out about summer guests and so on. I wish that I would have been working today at least, so I could've just been left out on all the drama we have at home.

Yesterday I was contacted by a Londonswede, who wanted ME to live with her, in her Holland Park-appartment in London. This flat would be quite fabulous, mostly because it's HOLLAND PARK, but also because it is just one stop from my school. But there's always a but... the rent is quite overprized, so I'm not quite sure if I can afford it. But I hope I can.


one soul for sale

Why is it, that there is a lot of boys and girls willing to sell their souls to fashion. I consider myself as one of them, and it puzzles me. I think for me, it started when I watched the movie "Devil wears Prada" for the very first time. I want to be successful, but first I want to drag myself through all the shitty assistant-jobs the fashion industry contains. Not because I feel that it will be a very easy job, because it wont, but because I feel that I will get to know so many people and the experience I will get, is as much as the day is long.

In september I am moving to London, to study at the London College of Fashion. I am thinking about taking a part-time job as an intern at a fashion-company. Now it finally feels like my life is about to start.





maybe this IS fabulous?





la Finlande

About a month ago I decided to spend the summer in my childhood home in Wasa,Finland. I think it was quite a clever choice to make, after all, I am moving to London in september, and I will need every penny I can get.
Until now I haven't done anything else than working, and it feels OK. My mind is totally set on London, and I can't wait to the day that is : go,went,gone



A little bit of slacking I've had time with.


I'll make the crap into credible, the dull into .. delicious

I am happy to say that I was granted a place at London college of fashion. It is, without thinking the best piece of news I've had in my entire life. It feels like a stone fell of my shoulders.. UAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH it feels fabulous! Now all I have to do is work-work-work so I can live a descent life in London. LONDON baby!


moving day

Today is my last day in Borås, which I thought was going to be a day of celebration. But now when I'm sitting here in my empty appartment, looking out through the window, a tear runs down my cheek. Even though I've hated this city it has still been my home. I have met some fabulous people here, and I hope that they'll stay my friends, wherever I am. This is the fourth time I'm moving. First from my childhood home, then Paris, then Wasa, and now this place. I am starting to understand my mother. She always says that I can't sit still and live in the moment.

 I hate packing. Gah, it is oh so boring.  Tomorrow morning I'm leaving for Stockholm, which will be great! What the summer has installed is yet unclear.

Bye bye Borås,  

xoxo


Lacroix

This morning I was hit by a bomb. The fashionhouse of Lacroix has now closed its doors to bankruptcy. The funny thing is that I haven't really noted the size of the economical depression before today. Lacroix decided to expand recently, and this seems to be the answer to why Lacroix is no more. Now we just have to hope for, that someone wants to buy this Haute couture brand.


Edina must be crushed...

Make me a supermodel

Last weekend I was a model for Johanna Milvert, a noted fashion-designer-student here from Borås. She has displayed her clothes at for example , Copenhagen Fashionweek, and now she wanted me to model for her, which was perfect, because I am in need of pictures for my model-portfolio. The pictures turned out really great.



Designer: Johanna Milvert
Model: me


the perfect outfit

If I had the money this is something I would consider wearing for the interview:

 


+ some fabulous accessories



jacket: Daniel Palillo
tee: -"-
pants: Carin Wester

Interview

This saturday, I will be off for London, because of an interview at London college of Fashion, which is being held next tuesday. My nerves are starting to fail on me, mostly because I haven't found a perfect outfit for the occasion, nor have I started to think about what to say. Panic attack panic attack panic attack...

Expensive sandals are not accurate...
