Today I have been working on a new fashion story with Fredrik and Mattias. Both me and Mattias styled the model and I also did her makeup and hair.
Now it´s time to pack my bags and get ready for a busy week. Tomorrow I´m going to Copenhagen for two days of work and after that I will fly to Oslo for more work. It will be fun with some change of scenery.

New commercial for Bauhaus

Blog

It´s always fun to work and be a part of the recordings to the Bauhaus commercials. Here is the latest one that we recorded for about 4 weeks ago. Makeup, hair and styling by me.

Notice how stylish Lena is wearing Japanese slippers with white tub socks. I laughed when I read the script that both Lena and Per should wear that.
And the cute twins in the pool, wearing fake mustaches.

Pastry Design

Blog

In june I had the pleasure to have a dessert dinner at Daniel Roos house, in his kitchen. We were 6 people around the table, mostly people working in the restaurant business and then it was me and my husband Jonas. We are very interested and passionate by food and taste!
Between 2009 and 2012 Daniel was a member of the Swedish Culinary Team and they took gold in Culinary Olympics 2012. Now he runs his own consultancy and company called Pastry design.

He and his girlfriend Sanna served five different desserts with wine pairings. It was a memorably evening and the most beautiful and delicious desserts I ever have had.

Pre-dessert number one was passionfruit robot with coconut and lime leafs infused tapioca and litchin pannacotta.
The first dessert was Bergamot mousse with honey sponge cake, tea sorbet and bergamot curd. This was one of my favorites. So beautiful!
Dessert number two was caramelized cream bavaorise with salty almond pudding, matcha sponge and rose hip sorbet. This was also so delicious…

Dessert number three was Daniels version of Peach Melba. Raspberry covered peaches, dried peach mousse, white peach cream and raspberry sorbet.

Dessert number four: Peanut mousse with caramelized banana cream, strawberry marshmallows and  foam with tahiti vanilla. The fifth and last dessert was really beautiful and Daniel had a nice story about the “chocolate stone” and were he find his inspiration. I totally love people with this passion, no matter profession. And Daniel is so passionate about his job. As you can see.

Trip hop

Blog

Been listening to music and reading fashion magazines all day. Perfect sunday if you ask me. Here is Tricky with “Evolution Revolution Love”. Noticed that I love music under the category “trip hop”. Trip hop is a genre of electronic music that originated in the early 1990s in Bristol, UK. It has been described as “Europe’s alternative choice in the second half of the ’90s”, and “a fusion of hip hop and electronica until neither genre is recognisable. It has influences from soul, jazz and funk. Very experimental. Except from Tricky it’s even more of my favorite artists in this category: Moloko, Faithless, Massive Attack, Morcheeba and Portishead.

On my wishlist – Adnet mirror

Adnet_mirror_Gubi_Grossmann_mategot

In 1950, Jacques Adnet formed a partnership with the French fashion house, Hermes, where he developed a collection of leather-covered furniture and interior accessories. Accordingly, he made a round leather mirror with brass hinges. Besides the remarkable leather and brass details, the mirror is also unique as the strap that holds the mirror is in direct proportion to the dimension of the mirror.
