An icon has past way
I was really chocked today to find out that Alexander McQueen took his life this morning!! It feels so unreal that someone so young, so successfull and loved by so many chose to take his life.. but I guess that we have seen that quite a lot over the past year with young actors and celebreties taking their own lives...
It's so sad - so hard to understand.
Alexander McQueen - you will be missed!
Step into my wardrobe
'HM is a very smart company. They have succeded with a budget concept in a world where budget concepts are something that is pretty un-cool and a bit tabu.
Now they have launched a new product on their site and it's called Step into my wardrobe and here you can dress a model with different clothes and get ideas with new outfits to put on. Great for us girls with big wardrobes and nothing to put on...

Liberty & 10 Corso Como join forces
Liberty of London has joined forces with one of Milan’s chicest designer label destinations, 10 Corso Como, in a high-status, twin-city retail marriage.
10 Corso Como was founded by Carla Sozzani, whose sister, Franca, is the editor-in-chief of Italian Vogue. The two siblings, with their blonde ‘Old Master’ hair and black, avant-garde wardrobes, are fixtures on the Milanese fashion scene.
‘10 Corso Como for Liberty of London’, on sale from mid-February, features both men’s and womenswear and forms part of the brand’s celebration of "Flower Power" throughout 2010.
Skin Deep Stockholm
YES! Finally you are mine.. Ok, some of you might think that I have a obsession with Mr Marc, I promise I don't but he is one of may favourites on the block.
In Stockholm there is a lovely shop called Skin Deep on Humlegårdsgatan. Right now they have got 50-70% off and you can find LOVELY things from Marc Jacobs, Matthew Williamson, See by Chloé, DvF, Theory and many many many more, so enjoy... some goodies from the aw2009 collection is still to be found!
Marc by Marc Jacobs - my best bargain
Many of us get great kicks from doing a great bargain in these times of sales. I've done lots of great buys at this year's sale (most of it in NYC - most of my savings vanished for some odd reason..) BUT this my friends, THIS is my best bargain by far. A cardi from Marc by Marc Jacobs that I found at Bloomingdales for the lovely price of 61 dollars. It was originally 278 dollar.. that's what I call a great buy!
Photographer Magnus Klackenstam
Okay, I've been away ( a long time) and I don't really know if I'm here to stay, but I just wanted to post some photos from our magazine and amazing photographer Magnus Klackenstam.. enjoy :)
Do I dare to say goodbye??..
I have had this blog for almost 3 years now and it's been my little baby that I have feed with postes and comments over the years. The only thing is that the internet has exploded with blogs and I don't really feel like there is a need for me anymore, I've done my part, I've inspired a few and hopefully written something worth reading every now and again.
But right now, I don't feel inspired or the need to write.. I don't want to give up my baby completely, but I haven't been a good mother to fashionholic the last year and she deserves something better, so for now.. goodbye..
A la Mode - let's go shopping!
There is a new site out there created by a man who wants to push for Swedish shopping. What a great idea!! Since the euro is so expensive at the moment, the Danish and Norwegian currencies even so and the pound always strong, there is a reason to come shopping in Sweden.. beacuse it's cheap!! So all of you out here not living in our narrow country come over and shop til you drop!! Click on the link here!

sooo sorry
First of all I'd really like to say that I'm sorry for the lack of posts lately, but I have to blame it on work... I've started working on a new project which is really exciting but takes up a lot of my time. I'm part of a new project that is creating a new exclusive magazine for one of Sweden's most exclusive Spas and gyms here in Stockholm. The magazine will include articles about health, beauty, sport and of course FASHION!!
I promise to keep you all informed on how it's all going..
