copenhagen calling

Hej hej beautiful readers... Sorry for the recent spell of silence. Thank you for your emails and comments, and don't worry, I'm not dead! Life has been very full (and freezing) in recent weeks, but things are looking up- I'm going to Denmark for my birthday in April! In fact, if anything can be blamed for my absence, it's that I've been off researching everything I can about the historical and modern style scenes of Copenhagen.

I have a few fashion related obsessions that will be blogged about soon, but for the moment Copenhagen is reigning supreme in my daydreams, blocking out all other fashionable thoughts. I'm wild about the street art...



and of course, the sidewalk muses:


Danes are quite stunning, non? More can be found here and here.

** If you have any recommendations for places to see in Copenhagen, please let me know!

I LOVE Copenhagen! There's a shop I love called Moshi Moshi in Osterbro that has clothes by all Danish designers (like Baum & Pfergarten) and also the owners own stuff. And it's practically next door to famous cafe Amokka where you can sit outside (with a blanket under a heater obvs!)and watch all the ridiculously gorgeous people. Wrap up warm and have a fantastic time my dear! x

Claire said...

The Louisana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk is a beautiful oasis. A short, picturesque train ride from Copenhagen, it's situated on the coast, with a beautiful view of the ocean and Sweden in the distance. And the art is pretty good too. I recommend highly.

I admit it, Adeleine. The anti-Australian comments were incited by my jealousy over your gorgeous leopard print coat and beret. Forgive me?

A request: you must visit the (Radisson) SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen Codesigned by Arne Jacobsen. I was recently in St. Catherine's College, Oxford, where he did the entire environment. Everything: the buildings, the tables, the chairs, the door handles, the faucets. It was simply amazing. Apparently he did the same for the Royal SAS. Cheers, BB

Copenhagen is wonderful, I live about half an hour from the city, abd go there often. The best about Copenhagen is definatly the atmosphere and the buildings. It's great to visit it in the spring, it's so beautiful!
Go visit Kronborg castle, 'Kongens have', 'Kongens Nyhavn', Christiania, The black diamond, the Opra and The Royal Libary. These are defintaly my favorite places in Copenhagen :)Of art museums are Lousiana, Glyptoteket and Statens museum for kunst definatly worth to see.
Walking around the street is a pleasure it self.
Look forward to hear about your trip :)
