Your favorite children’s brands Bonpoint, Pink Chicken, Sailor Rose, Baby Bean, J Crew Kids

Do you buy a lot online for your children I unfortunately do, I buy a lot of stuff on Amazon. Books, the new bike helmet, the scooter…

What are the criteria you consider when you buy something for Paulina I like styles that are comfortable and childlike. I am not the biggest fan of outfits that make kids look like little grown-ups who love to follow every trend

Most precious item you bought for your child A vintage dark-blue coat

Best gift you gave for a child’s B-day Self-made Christmas calendar with a tiny gift for every day in December until Christmas Day

Items that you find hard to find Shoes that are childlike but still stylish and that do not have tons of glitter on it!

Favorite pieces in Paulina’s wardrobe The simple Pink Chicken cotton-dresses. Paulina wears them forever and in every season. With or without a t-shirt underneath. When they get a bit shorter they still look great with leggings

What travel plans do you have? We just got back from a trip to Germany to see our families – now we are ready for a vacation!
