Girls just wanna have fun!

I am trying to find out what to wear tomorrow. Ida and I are planning on looking fab and have a fantastic time. and for that, we will need a dress. I want to wear a short, funky dress. I want to wear a dress to have fun in! A good-time dress... You know, girls just wanna have fun!

Red dreams

Red is the color of love, and christmas offcourse... it's the color of live, death, desire and happiness. Red can be sexy, red can be emotional. I really wish I had more red in my closet!
Hope you all had a nice christmas! love, Hannah

waiting for tomorrow

Finally, all the presents are rapped in and all the christmas cards are written. This has been a busy day, but now I'm finally finished and I have taken place in the sofa! Watching tv and really enjoying the smell of the beautiful christmas tree. Now, I can really feel that I love christmas just as much as I did when I was six. Isn't it marvelous?! Tonight I hope you all will sleep as tight as I will, all though I'll probably wake up quite early because I am so excited! Merry christmas to you all!

These pictures were taken last year on christmas day in the Vigelands park in Oslo. The weather was so beautiful and the ground was really icy, almost like glass. Ahh, memories.

My mother and I. P.s look at the santas in the background!

Soft and warm...

Today Ida and I want to share our passion for cashmere. It's actually kind of wierd that something like a scarf can be luxurious, and some may think cashmere is overprized. Maybe it is, but a really nice cashmere scarf makes your wool coat from H&M look expensive. That's what I call well spent money!
By the way... do you like it when I post drawings? This one is a drawing of Ida in her beige coat and Paul & Jo cashmere scarf. If you like the drawings I have more on storage..
Merry Christmas <3 Hannah

Paris Je t'aime!

I have unfortunately only been to Paris once... And I am longing back! The light in Paris, the colors... everything is just beautiful!

This movie is the most wonderful thing ever made...and the perfume smells soo good!
My uncle is moving to Paris for a month in February with his art school, and my cusin are going to live in Paris for four months this spring. If I am jealouse? You bet I am... If I ever go there again (and thats just a matter of time)I am going to bring this Moleskin City Guide .
I would eat croissants every morning wearing lace, pearls and red nailvarnish...

and by lunch-time I would have drinks with my cute little dog...

and the rest of the day I would spend shopping, walking in the park and writing a novel. I would stay out into the early hours, flirting and dancing and live a truly bohemian life.

wouldn't living in Paris be great?

Shopping for the perfect gift...

It's always a great feeling giving away the perfect gift. To find something personal and beautiful for another person can be even more satisfying than finding something for yourself. I love that feeling. Finding the perfect gift, on the other hand, is not that satisfying... Aching legs, freezing hands and not a gift in sight. That's one of the rare occasions when I hate shopping.

Yesterday we celebrated hannah's birthday, and although we were all tired after a busy week, we had a very good time. This week is going to be great because we have less to do at school, and we all have time to get into the christmas spirit. We forgot to take pictures yesterday, so instead we have got these picures we took for a few days ago. Hope you all will have a nice week and get the christmas spirit! what I always wanted to be when I was little - a pink ballarina

Open Academy

Thursday and yesterday the Art Academy of Fine Art in Oslo opened their studios. It was a very interesting exhibition, and my little sis thought it was much more fun than the Munch. I thought it was very inspiring, and I loved that it was so much different. It was videos, dead birds, paintings, fotos, strange rooms you could walk into and sculptures. The drawing above was one of my favorites. It is made by Andreas Bennin.
What I really liked about this exhibition was that you really felt the connection to the artists. Not only because the art was very personal, but also because they were all hanging out drinking beer on shabby couches. They were all ultra cool, and I still regret that I didn't take some pictures of them...

When I saw this I actually thought that the person in the corner was alive...

This one was very cozy. You had to take of your shoes, and it was like walking into a belly. I almost felt like a fetus again.

hope you all have a nice weekend! Hannah

I am 17! Hurra!

Today is my birthday!!! I woke up to a white cream cake and roses and my family singing me a birthday song! I ate cake and drank warm chocolate in bed. It has been a great morning, but unfortunately I am ill. A horrible headache have terrorized me all night and I have almost lost my voice. Isn’t that typical? Off course I had to get ill on my birthday… But anyway, I got some lovely pearl earrings, an ipod, the Sex and the City movie and about four lip glosses. So today I am just going to stay at home and watch Sex and the City. Grandma and grandpa arrived from the Grand Canarias this morning, so I will celebrate with them later… Hope you have a wonderful day! Happy birthday to me!

New header! What do you think?

We have a header! We have a header!
What do you think? We have thought of getting one since we started, and I have been like "Ida? Don't we need a header?" and we have thought of everything from a picture of the two of us, or big letters with Ida and I sitting on top of the letters... But then I found this book with lots of old drawings, and I got a bit inspired and drew this idea, and we both loved it. Do you remember Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's smoking from that long stick-thing? That's the smoking inspiration. So, what do you guys think?

winter - we meet you with style

Hey! Finally weekend! And we are getting closer and closer to christmas:) (hehe we can't wait.)
I really like the winter and I'm really looking forward to go skiing. Of course, I must admit that the winter is very dark (where did the sun go??), when I go to school it's dark and when I go home.. It makes you want to stay home in bed with lots of blankets and hot chocolate or something. Well,.. you can't just stay in bed all winter, so therefore we say: get up and dress up. Hannah and I did just that.

A very stressful week...

Ida and I are so sorry we haven't posted anything this week! It's just been crazy with tests, theatre practice and family... Today I woke up way to late and then I remebered that we had a math test so I was pretty stressed out. But since a already was way to late anyway, I decided that it was no reason to hurry. On my way to school I bought a chai latte to go in my favorite coffie place called Kaffa. They make the best coffie every, and I adore their Chai Latte! If you live in Oslo you should really pay a visit some time! On my way home I popped by Gimle Perfumery to by myself a christmas present. I bought a Esteé lauder parfume called Private Collection Amber Ylang Ylang. I absolutely love it! Gimle has the best service ever, and I could been there all day!

You can read more about the perfume at Esteé Lauder
Hope all of you have had a nice week! Tomorrow I am going christmas shopping!

The little black dress!

If marilyn monroe was a brunette, she'd look like this;)

Sugar, spice and everything nice...

My muffin Kama Sofie and I was in the mood for cupcakes... so we dressed up in our pretty housewife dresses, high red heels and painted our lips with the colour of love. We ended up with these delicious sugar bombs...

Your sugar rush will be cured after one of these...

Want one?

You wouldn't be able to eat more than one!

Bella fell for Kama Sofie...

...and we fell in love with housekeeping.

is androgynity the new femininity?

In the weekend I saw Annie Hall (picture from style.com)! It was really inspirational! I love Woody Allen, he is so funny and intelligent. Diane Keating looks amazing as Annie Hall, and all the grandpa vests, ties and baggy chions looks ultra cool. The look is very relaxed, but wearing it she looks intellectual and sexy. Today I was inspired by the movie, so I wore some menswear. I wish I had a bigger shirt and a black tie, but I did the best I could. I thought I would feel less feminine wearing it, but acctually I felt more like a woman than in a long time. It's like the menswear works like a contrast.I hope you had an amazing weekend! Love, Hannah <3
