Q&A WITH sisse
Q: How do you think your best friend would describe you?
A: She would probably describe me as dynamic and eclectic. She loves to say I’m someone who can effortlessly transition from the glamour of fashion week to the serenity of a mountain hike. I embrace contrasts and find inspiration in both worlds.
Q: What is your go-to outfit when you want to feel confident and stylish?
A: For an extra confident boost I would put on a pair of heels and some nice jewelry.
Q: Who or what has been your biggest inspiration in developing your personal style?
A: My biggest inspiration in developing my personal style has always been the belief that ‘simplicity is the ultimate key.’ I’ve never been drawn to trends; instead, I focus on the materials, craftsmanship, and the shapes of clothing. For me, style is about timeless quality and how pieces feel and move, rather than following what’s in season.
Q: What will be your next fashion purchase?
A: My next fashion purchase will likely be a warm coat in a soft material. I've had my eyes on the Doublé scarf coat from Toteme, which is super chic and classic.
Q: Why is jewelry important to you?
A: I don’t usually wear jewelry on a daily basis, but when I’m heading to a party or need to dress up, I love adding a pair of statement earrings. It’s the perfect way to elevate a look and add a touch of personality without overdoing it.
What does a normal workday in your life look like?
7:30 AM – Morning Routine
I wake up around 7:30 AM and start my day with a cup of coffee and a slice of sourdough bread with butter and cheese - a true Danish classic.
8:30 AM – Starting work
I’m fortunate to work from my home office, so I can ease into my day while enjoying breakfast. My workday typically runs from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, with a mix of photo editing, PR tasks, and creative projects.
4:30 PM – After work
After work, I like to unwind by heading to the gym for a workout.
6:00 PM – Dinner
I prepare a simple dinner for myself while listening to a cozy playlist.
7:00 PM – Evening relaxation
After dinner, I settle down on the couch to knit (I’m currently working on the Magda Knit from Skall Studio).
8:30 PM – Unwinding
I take a warm shower and then lie in bed. This is when I schedule brand collaborations, plan upcoming deadlines, and edit content for my personal projects.
10:30 PM – Lights out
If I’ve had a particularly stressful day, I’ll listen to a 10-minute meditation to help me relax and drift into a deep sleep. I can recommend the app 'Relax lite'.

hot chocolate date
For a cozy hot chocolate date, I’d go for a relaxed look. I’d style the Lumi earrings with an oversized red knit sweater (like the Julie Josephine oversized wool crew) to capture the holiday vibe, paired with dark blue jeans for a classic touch. It’s the perfect balance of comfort and seasonal cheer, with the earrings adding just the right amount of sparkle.

Christmas market
To stay warm and stylish while strolling through a Christmas market, I’d layer up with a chic black puffer jacket (like The Garment Belgium coat), a white cable knit sweater, and dark grey jeans (such as the Skall Studio Willow jeans). To soften the look I’d wear the Haze earrings.
HAZE EARRINGS
christmas eve
On Christmas Eve, I love to embrace the elegance of the season. I’d choose a timeless black dress paired with black heels and a bold red lip. To complete the look, the Sage earrings in gold are my go-to. They’re simple yet statement-making, adding just the right touch of festive glamour to celebrate the occasion in style.
