Getting back to writing
To get back to writing after giving birth has been a huge challenge. It’s been harder than i thought. To be able to work in short time slots. I work best when I am glued to the desk and work non stop for 4 days. I am used being able to go somewhere and write non-stop in a new environment. … Read More
Stil Voll
Last year, when I was pregnant, my friend Marlene was writing a book about Style. She asked me if I wanted to be interviewed for the pregnancy chapter. Sure, I said, I do have tips! I gave her the interview but I postponed the photography session again and again. I simply seldom felt comfortable being pregnant and when you don’t … Read More
To the Dads
I can still not get over that disgusting story about the Stanford rape. I could not fall asleep last night thinking about this.

I remember thinking “Regardless how much I love … Read More

We were at Rösler Haus, a place which has a more relaxing impact … Read More

Me for Anthropologie
The US brand Anthropologie contacted me in the beginning of the summer asking me if I wanted to be one of the faces for their Fall campaign. Uff, I thought. I would just be a bit over a month after giving birth. Fresh out of the mom bubble so to say. I was definitely not going be back into my pre-pregnancy size. And most … Read More

Wearing mummys clothes
When I was pregnant I really did not feel like I wanted to share with the world. So I stayed offline. However, I did actually still write. I have to post this post that I prepared in March last year but ever published. I was pregnant in week 30 and I felt so so ugly. When I look at the images now … Read More
