arctic Trend UpdateIssue 2 2013Summer edition | The northern country.

This is the second issue for the year and I hope that it will inspire you.The journey continues, Still trying to find ourselves in the quest for answers. The questions are as important, because it is when we start asking why that we might be one step closer to what really matters? People, planet, profit are equally important.

2013 has been a great year so far and it feels great to soon start a new season, but first I want to share with you the summer edition. Enjoy!

Goodbye winter, Hello summer!

WE LIKE Second hand ”Loppis” in Luleå.

There are a bunch of Loppis in Swedish Lapland. I love to visit second hand stores, both when buying clothes, accessories and furniture. It is a great way of finding odd and unique pieces. Especially during the summer there are interesting yardsales and antique second hand stores located in villages across Swedish Lapland. In pictures from a favorite Loppis in Bälinge, a village outside of Luleå. Sandnäsetvägen GPS coordinates 65.641125, 21.8961735.

Northern Country...

Another photoshoot in Swedish Lapland with photographer Fredrik Broman, Humanspectra.

Team | model: Emma Eriksson, Makeup artist: Linn Leastadius, Photographer Fredrik Broman, Humanspectra, Styling: Annkathrin Lundqvist, arctic trend & Pär Kassberg.

We did the photoshoot listening to First Aid Kit. So perfect for the setting.

Wolf by First Aid Kit.......”When I run through the deep dark forest long After this begun Where the sun would set, The trees were dead, And the rivers were none. And I hope for a trace To lead me back home from this place But there was no sound there was only me, and my disgrace.”
