SEPHORA STORE OPENING

Beauty conscious gays will flock to the first Swedish installment of leading french beauty retailer Sephora, to snap up their favourite exclusive cosmeceuticals, makeup and those hard-to-find fragrances. The first shiny boutique is located in a mall outside of Stockholm, but there’s a city center flagship store and more locations on the horizon.
Sephora was founded in the 70s and is now owned by luxury conglomerate Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy Group.
My personal favourites are the glossy Hyaluronic- and Alguronic acid packed products from cosmeceutical brands Rexaline and Algenist.

TRIWA A/W 11: ADDING COLOUR

Swedish watch brand Triwa has spearheaded the return of the colourful, plastic watch trend, allowing everyone to add colour to an outfit and use the watch as an accessory.

For the A/W11 collection, Triwa opted to skip conservative advertising and opted for art instead as focus for the communication. Talanded photoartist Fredrik Öhman was chosen to create campaign/collection images, consisting of artfully surrealistic morphed animal portraits inspired by the colorful watch collection. The portraits were exhibited today at the gorgeous space Jonas Kleerup Gallery.

KARL LAGERFELD FÖR ORREFORS

Kreatören, fotografen, designern och redaktören Karl Lagerfeld älskar att ständigt hitta nya sätt att uttrycka sig på. Efter mode, parfym, accessoarer  – och ett par mindre lyckade samarbeten – som musan Baptiste Giabiconi porträtterad i choklad(!) för Magnum – lanserar Karl Lagerfeld nu sin första kristallkollektion Orrefors by Karl Lagerfeld, för anrika Orrefors, en kollektion som ger oss stort habegär.

Först ut i serien är champagneglas och champagneskålar, vin- vatten- och likörglas, glas, skålar och vaser.

Glasen kommer att visas på NK glas, porslin och kök från 10 juni och två veckor framåt, och kommer sedan att säljas exklusivt på NK från 1 september.
