Simply me, a Swede in LA

It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.

Wedding bells


Hugh Hefner (80) has said time and time again that he'll never marry a third time. Well, accordning to New York Post he has changed his mind and decided to marry Holly Madison (right in pic, 27), I guess love really knows no age...

He said he chose Holly out of his 3 girlfriends because she's the most devoted one
, I wonder what the other two, Kendra and Bridget, think of that?

Scary movies!

Tonight I'm off to T's house with some other friends of mine for an all girls-pizza-pajama's-cocktails and scary movie night! We'll be mixing old japanese movies with modern remakes such as The Ring and The Grudge (they scare the hell out of me!)

Everybody's smokin'

Even Mischa!
I don't think I really grasped how many people smoke pot here in LA until I moved here, you see (and smell) it everywhere!

O.C says goodbye!


So right now the very last episode of O.C is on FOX and I'm not even watching...
I stopped watching halfway into the last season when I noticed I wasn't really paying attention, now, I will see these last few episodes eventually, just to find out how it ends, but my interest is pretty much gone!

I think "Sex and the City" quit just in time, I think "Friends" quit just in time, I think "O.C" could have quit 2 seasons ago and everybody would have still been happy, they were way overdo!

Well, whatever, Adam is still hot and I'll be keeping an eye on him, and Rachel is still one of my favorite fashionistas and I imagine I'll still love her clothes, but otherwise, O.C ends here.

Can't somebody just help her????

Drama drama...

Gunshots in our neighborhood last night... Pretty scary when it's so close!

Carmen Electra at Fred Segal



Yup, she came in again today and she's blond again She was in sweatpants and her hair up in a ponytail, nothing special...! Last time I saw her, her hair was a gorgeous rich chocolate shade and everybody in the store turned around as she passed by! Seeing her as a blond today with quite visible roots, she was, well...pale, I like her much better as a brunette! Her eyes stand out so much more and she looks a lot more sophisticated.

Kinda makes me think, I'm the eternal blond but I have been thinking about the same kind of chocolate brown shade as Carmen has in the picture... Maybe it would do me a favor :)

Note to Paris: Check your makeup!

Ok, seriously, even if you've been partying for hours your makeup
shouldn't be this blotchy!

Ashlee gains a few


She's not as scary skinny as she looked for a while this summer, her body now looks closer to what it did before. I actually think she's a pretty girl, when she's not all faked-up!

Put that white ass back in your pants fool!


I get it! You want to prove that you're not just a little boy and one of the top 10 wizards that 13 year old girls love, but can you please please please stop taking your clothes off in public! I don't wanna see you freakishly hairy bellybutton every time I open a magazine! And keep this in mind: Some guys just look better the more clothes they wear....yeah that's right...

She's losing it...literally!

Oh my god, she's bald! After shaving her own head, Brit went to a tattoo parlor and had 2 small tattoos done, a cross and a set of lips. According to the tattoo-guy she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, no shit!

In the back of my mind I'm hoping she shaved her head in an attempt to start over again, as a good mother!

Proenza Schouler for Target!














I've been waiting for this collection to hit Target for so long now, and it definitely lived up to my expectations! Here are my favourites:




Odd Molly to Cali!




This morning I read in Hotspot's blog that Odd Molly is expanding in the US, and damn straight they are!
It just so happens that Fred Segal Fun is going to carry it!
Another proud Swedish brand to recommend to customers :)
We already carry Acne and Cheap Monday but unfortunately not in the store where I work. I can't wait for our first shipment!

Feel-good!

Few things make me feel as good as the beginning and the ending of "Love Actually", it's just the ultimate feel-good movie


"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow airport. General opinion makes out that we live in a world of hatred and greed. I don't see that. Seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy but it's always there. Fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends."

- Love Actually

Some of my happiest and saddest moments nowadays take place at either Landvetter Airport in Gothenburg or LAX in LA, meeting my family and saying goodbye to them.


Anna Nicole Nov 28 1967-Feb 8 2007


Somehow it doesn't surprise me, but it's still tragic. She's had such a difficult life and now she's leaving her little daughter behind...

New hair, new lips

Jessica got a new hair color again and personally, I think it kinda suits her (even tho it doesn't quite feel like the Jess we know), it looks a little... Jessica-Alba-ish with the hair and the skintone. Btw, didn't she swear off the collagen? Her lips look ridiculous...

Beautiful day!


Today was really sunny and warm for being February, 26 C! Perfect day for the beach, but since I'm working weekends, I took a nice morning walk to work instead, about 1 1/2 hour walk in the sun under palm trees, not too shabby! I think I'll do it again tomorrow :)

I just have to throw in a note about this gorgeous dress!



The style is a complete knock-off of my blue ChloƩ dress, but for a mere fraction of the price!
Don't we love it?

To my friends

I was watching the last 2 episodes of Sex & the City today and as always, it made me think about two of my best friends, K & V, I see a little bit of us three in all these girls and we've gone through so much together, and we're always there for each other!

Little did we know when we watched the finale episode of SATC that it'd soon be happening for real. They were very supportive when they found out I was going to move, but of course we were all sad to be separated, but you know girls, there's always a happy reunion at the end!

I miss you...
