When did you believe in yourself the most?

When I started FERN. alongside Jeppe, and I went from being a photographer to be the CEO of a company with employees, clients and tasks 24/7. Almost at the same time I became a mother. It definitely also made me stronger.

What advice would you have given yourself ten years ago / What advice would you give your future self?

Invest in bitcoin in January 2009 and sell them again in November 10, 2021 + don’t let anybody dictate how you should feel. 

What is the best thing about wearing Matinique?

That it expands my wardrobe 100% because I can use all my husband, Jeppe’s, clothing. Joke aside I really like the oversized, masculine looking pieces combined with other feminine pieces. It makes me fell like a boss. 

What is never out of style?

Jeans and a white t-shirt.
