new in: writing

Efter lang, lang tids venten har jeg endelig modtaget en bog, jeg virkelig har ønsket mig. Writing for the Fashion Business er, sjovt nok, en bog om, hvordan man skriver inden for alle aspekter af modeverdenen, mht. journalisme, marketing osv. Jeg synes det er virkelig spændende og håber på at jeg kan få rigtig meget ud af at læse den, mht. at blive en bedre blogger og bare med at skrive generelt. Jeg er startet med The New Media-afsnittet omkring at skrive til internetlæsere og om hvordan det er anderledes end at skrive til print. Bagefter tager jeg resten af bogen fra ende til anden. Jeg opdagede først bogen inde hos Ivania og gik derefter straks ind på Amazon og købte bogen.

After a long wait I've finally recieved a book I really want. Writing for the Fashion Business is, logically, a book about how to write in any aspects of the fashion industry, concerning journalism and marketing and so on. I think that it's very exciting and I hope to become a better blogger and to get a greater knowlegde of writing in general and in the fashion industry. I've started with the The New Media-chapter, which is about writing for internet readers and how it differs from writing for print. When I'm done with that, I'll read the rest of the book from one end to the other. I discovered the book at Ivanias blog, from where I went straight to Amazon to buy it.

new in: form

Jeg var lige et smut omkring Pilegaards Antikvariat den anden dag, hvor der stod en kurv med kunstbøger. Der fandt jeg denne super flotte bog af Erik Lynge. Jeg har ikke fået læst de få siders tekst der er deri endnu, men jeg har skam fået kigger på alle de flotte, simple billeder af forskellige former, han har lavet. Der er så mange former jeg aldrig selv har kunnet forestille mig. Jeg synes det er super inspirerende! Jeg tror helt sikkert det er en bog, man kan drage en masse inspiration fra både mht. mode men også design generelt.

I went by an antique shop after school recently. Outside there was a basket with art books, in which I found this beautiful book by Erik Lynge. I haven't read the few pages of text there are yet, but I've spent some time looking at the nice, simple photos of different white shapes. I find it extremely inspirering. There are so many shapes I have never thought about. I think it's a book from which you can get a lot of inspiration, both in fashion but also concerning design in general.

case study #1

Da jeg var i Paris og besøgte Colette kunne jeg ikke undgå at lægge mærke til fotografen David Mushegains portrætudstilling på aller øverste etage. Efter sigende, skulle portrætterne alle være af folk, kunstnere og artister, der inspirerer fotografen. Jeg blev vild med de super flotte fotos og anskaffede mig bogen, Case Study #1, hvor man kan se dem alle sammen og som billederne ovenfor er fra. Er de ikke bare flotte?

When I was in Paris and went by Colette, I couldn't help but notice the portrait exhibition by the photographer David Mushegain on the top floor. I've read that all the photos are of people and artists that inspire David Mushegain. I immedately loved the portraits and bought the book, Case Study #1, in which all of the photos are and of which I took the photos above. Arent they gorgeous?

De gode bøger

Jeg er kommet i tanke om to bøger jeg har stående, som jeg købte i Dublin og som jeg fuldstændig har glemt at blogge om. Nu, omkring en måned efter, får I altså lige et kig med på hvad jeg stikker næsen i når jeg "læser". Den første bog "All my friends are dead" er købt i Urban Outfitters og den anden bog "The new art of the club flyer" købte jeg i den fedeste plade- og bogbutik i verden, der hedder Tower Records og som ligger lige overfor Chanel og LV i Wickow st., en sidegade til Grafton st. Helt sikkert et besøg værd! ps. bøgerne står helt nede bagi.

I just remembered to books that I bought in Dublin, and which I completely forgot to blog about. Now, about a month later you geet a peak at what I "read" when I do so. The first book "All my friends are dead" is bought in Urban Outfitters. The second book, "The new art of the club flyer" is bought in the coolest music- and bookstore ever, called Tower Records. It is located right across the street from Chanel and LV in Wickow st., a side street to Grafton st. and it is definately worth a visit! ps. the books are all the way in the back.
