The bedroom, the new It room

The collection Cote d´Azur in Egyptian cotton sateen, TC 600 and adorned with beautiful embroideries and hemstitch

Today the bedroom is a room that many people choose to renew and make extra nice. After a time with focus on kitchens and bathrooms it feels refreshing to concentrate on a room where one spend at least one third of the days of a life time. An inspiration is the Master bedrooms, bedrooms adjacent to a walk in closet and a large bathroom with a lovely bathtub.

The bed becomes really inviting if you use bedding you really like and plenty of nice shams in different sizes, among which you can lay down and really relax. Choose a type of bedding that makes you happy and avoid too many colours if you are searching for a calm and relaxing feeling.

Relaxing calming bath

   Photographer Jorg Sundermann

When me and my family was planning our largest bath room we all agreed that we wanted it to feel as a big spa and that the bathtub would have a central place in the room. I am not a fan of different jacuzzi tubs with jet streams and many different functions. Instead I prefer to lie down in nice warm water in an large and calm bathtub like the one in the picture.

Then I use fragrant candles and calming bath salts to make the whole bath even more relaxing. In the end I want to embrace myself in really soft and white terry towels.

Have a nice next bath

How to make your bed perfect

The bed set Park Avenue from Millefeuille, newly ironed and ready to use


I really enjoy sliding down between newly ironed and freshly fragrant linen. Even if the ironing means extra work it is well worth the effort. There is a large difference between sleeping in smooth shiny and wrinkle free linens compared with wrinkled and matte linens. The bed also looks better when the linens look good, it becomes an important design detail in your bed room. I recommend you to have at least some sets to change between then you can always have ironed and maybe lavender scented linen ready to use.

Have a really good and soft nights sleep

Morning training in the pool

                            Picture kindly provided by Six senses spa

Whenever I have time I take the chance to train before breakfast. One of my favourite training forms is swimming alone in the morning in a nice pool.  During the training I have time to plan the day and relax at the same time. Then I arrive fresh and healthy to my breakfast.

Warmest regards

Fashion inspirations

Something to be inspired by.....

Many are those fashion designers that are inspired by everyday things. A colour, a thing or something that happens can be the start of a whole new collection. Then people will buy the clothes and that original idea will affect the whole world.

During a fashion show it is always exciting to see the new trends and to hear the story behind the collection. The surrounding interior and the music makes the whole show even more inspiring. Like Louis Vuittons spring collection 2012 where Marc jacobs let the models sit on a carousel with prancing white horses and to the sound of a music box melody, beautiful! Another example is Karl Lagerfelds Chanels spring 2008 collection where the models walked around a 75 feet tall white Chanel jacket, simply stunning. If you do not have the possibility to watch the shows live many designers shows them on their home pages as well.

Good inspiration is important and at Millefeuille we work in the same way. We see something beautiful that inspires us and then we transform this idea to our bed linen. We produce samples which if they become fine then becomes new collections.

What inspires you most?

A lovely dinner by the sea

                                                      A nice place for a lunch or a dinner

It is so nice to eat by the sea. The food seams to taste better when the view is beautiful. Start with a fresch lunch or why not go for a a three course dinner? When the sun sets it is nice to use torches as a cosy lighting by the table.

The little black dress

The Little Black Dress or in short LBD is a must have in every stylish womans wardrobe. Coco Chanel introduced this kind of simple elegant evening dress in her collections already in 1926.

Go for one with simple and clean lines and pair it with "killer" high heels and accessories that gives it an extra elegant touch, like the pearls Audrey Hepburn combined it with in "Breakfast at Tiffany´s".

In same famous restaurants they change the usual white linen napkins for black versions when you arrive in your black evening dresses so the napkin matches your outfit.

With the right LBD you about to succeed at every dinner or cocktail party. Or as the Duchess of Windsor once said " When a little black dress is right, there is nothing else to wear in its place."

A summer with Vogue

Recently the latest issue of American Vogue arrived in the mail. It is as always full of inspiring pictures, articles and news. Anna Wintour and her co workers does not only make a magazine they litteraly makes the reader part of their visions in every single article and photo reportage. When a magazine can evoke happiness and inspiration in almost every spread it is very impressive and admirable.

American Vogue was founded in 1892 and has since several years back been given out in local versions in several countries. In my opinion the american version is still the best of everyone.

Time for relaxation and rest

View over Kaanapali, Maui, Hawaii

Sometimes it can be hard to relax when the so much longed for vacation starts. I often get in the right mood when spending time in a beautiful and relaxing environment. A place where the eys whereever they land sees something beautiful.

On vacation it is lovely to at least some days stay at an all inclusive resort. A place where you can totally relax and leave the outside world behind. The day starts with a lovely breakfast in the room or in a beautiful restaurant followed by a lazy day on the beach, sunbathing, bading, sailing or doing some other nice vacation activity. A nice lunch at the beach or the pool followed by a fantastic candle lit gastronomically challenging dinner.

There are lots of beautiful places in the world and resorts situated at remote islands with peace and tranquility are often good choices. The resorts owned by Sheraton and Four Seasons have never made me dissappointed.

Where do you go for a relaxing vacation?

I just admired some pictures of Chanels Black Jacket. What a beautiful piece. Coco Chanel with her eye for details and that excellent quality that Chanel stands for even today are true inspirations. Exquisite products weather its clothes, shoes or bed linen is about elegance in every detail. Every seam must be perfect and placed in a way that suits the design and makes it more beautiful. The materials shall be the best there is to buy and the feeleing behind the creation of the product shall be built into the design.

Get summer fresh lips

Juicy Tubes from Lancome

The summer is here and it is time to freshen up your lips with summery glosses. A gloss makes your lips look fuller and smoother.

Glosses are at the moment super trendy. The sometimes dark coloured autumn/ winter collections from fashion houses like Dior, Givenchy ans Zac Posen this year inspires us with shiny glossy lips.

My favorites are Dior Addict Ultra- gloss and Juicy Tubes from Lancome. They are available in all sorts of fresh colours or transparent ones if you prefer that. Apply the gloss alone or use it over your favorite lipstick- then you are ready fora day at the beach or any other summer adventure you are in for.

Cruise Collection

Who would not want to be here when the icy winds rules and the snow flows in the air?

We have decided to create a Millefeulle Cruise Collection with bed linen and accessories. Since some years back the large fashion houses launches not only spring/ summer and autumn/ winter collections but also Cruise or Resort collections. From the beginning these collections were intended for the wealthy customers who went on cruises or vacationed in the warm cuntries during the cold winter months. Nowdays these collections are intended for customers that have already shopped their entire fall collections  and are looking forward to buy clothes to bring on their  upcoming vacations. 

After Millefeuilles autuumn/ winter collections which often are inspired by the colours and scents of the autumn and by Christmas and New Years eve we will launch collections with bed linen that breathes warm weather vacations. We will also launch collections of beach towels for beautiful white beaches and lingerie that suits the most luxurious hotel rooms

Our plan is to launch our first Millefeuille cruise Collection during the summer 2014 but inspirational pictures of what it will contain will be shown in this blog before that.

What do you readers think of this?
