While I am busy feeling sorry for myself, I thought I might give you a heads up about the fact that the latest edition of STREETSTYLE contains two pages signed by yours truly. Got my copy in the mail yesterday and it is currently waiting for me to take it with me the next time I get some beach time.

Just booked a catamaran trip with some of the girls for next Saturday, which will by all probability border on awesomeness. If I get rid of this cold. Which I will.

On a totally unrelated note; I need some new music, I need a new spotify-playlist to be frank, so I was wondering if you had some suggestions as to what I could fill that list with?

LØP OG KJØP! :)

(Og ellers, hipp hurra for valget! En stk fornøyd Maren løper avgårde på forelesning nu, kledd i blått for anledningen).

Back home in Kristiansand again, packing and unpacking and trying to figure out where I left my brain in the mess that is luggage from Oslo, Hove and Hungary. My room at my parents’ house looks like every cliché of a teenage mum’s nightmare (minus the rotten food, I don’t have any of that as far as I know) but I just found my way out of facebook and email-land, so hopefully it’ll look a lot better in half an hour or so. Just stopped by here to tell you that I am featured in the newest edition of DET NYE (norwegian magazine), which means that you can now buy the magazine, cut out the pictures of me and hang them on your wall if you want to.  Or just read it. #iknowyouwantto

In the meantime I will pack my bags and retreat to my summer house in Søgne, to read books and warm up for the next dose of traveling (Sweden – Switzerland – Italy) in less than two weeks. A lot of traveling this summer in other words, and currently I am loving it.

How has your summer been so far, and do you have a lot of free time, or is it all work and no play ?

I have been so out of it that I forgot to mention that I am in this month’s issue of MAG. So if you’re Norwegian, løp og kjøp!

I am featured in the December issue of Vixen together with other nominees in the category for “Best Inspirational Blog“. Voting is still open, and you can choose between Maria, Elise, Marie, Janka, Cathrine, Dead Fleurette, Thea, Simen, Ladybirds Nest and Karoline. And me. The issue is out now, and you can find it in stores like Bik Bok and at EGER in addition to reading it online here.

Song of the day: Rihanna – What’s My Name?
TV show of the day: Jul på Månetoppen + New season of The Mentalist.
Today’s snack: Gingerbread cookies.

Spent most of yesterday at L’Oreal’s studios together with the rest of the nominees for “Best Inspirational Blog”. Vixen invited us to a day of photo shot, tapas and champagne. Quite a nice way to spend the day, wouldn’t mind spending every day like that in fact. Vixen has also posted a short interview with yours truly on their site, which you can read here.

I get the photos next Thursday or Friday, so until then you’ll have to live with the pictures in this post. In other news you can find my interview with Jenny Skavlan on OsloNights.no now. Go read ! :)

Stockholm Fashion Week obviously meant cameras everywhere, both famous magazines (vogue, interview, costume, etc) and bloggers (like facehunter, styleclicker and random bloggers). I managed to look all kinds of ugly in almost every picture I’ve seen so far, but I’m hoping that the picture that might end up in Interview will look smashing. Let’s pray some shall we. Anywho, here’s some of the pictures I have found so far on the world wide web.

The Freshnet-mafia: Lina, Emma, Columbine (one of my favourite bloggers) and Maria.

Eva, Elin Kling (another one of my favourite bloggers) and Maria.

And btw, I was interviewed for swedish SVT yesterday. Made a complete fool out of myself, but whatevs.

Today I’m in one of the local newspapers in Kristiansand. FUN!
