Describe your style in 5 words:
Fun. Comfortable. Casual—ok
maybe not casual in
this dress! But I like
dressing up in a
casual way. If
you see me,
I’m always
wearing
dresses or skirts.
So my five words? Fun,
comfortable, casual, nothing
more.
Favourite stores in Reykjavík:
Of course Yeoman, but also
Spúútnik and Fatamarka!urinn.
I don’t shop much in Reykjavík. I
mainly shop abroad.
Favourite piece:
It would have to be an old rabbit
fur coat from my grandma. My
grandpa gave it to her for their
first wedding anniversary and
she gave it to me. I love it. I would
never buy real fur right now, but
when it’s handed down, it’s very
special.
Something you would never
wear:
Overalls. Especially denim ones.
I used to wear them when I was
like three so for me, they feel
really childish.
Lusting after:
I really want new sneakers.
Some good crisp white ones.
I’m looking, but I haven’t
found anything I really love
so I’ll just wait!
