The nice thing about starting following a brand from the very beginning is that you get to appreciate its evolution as it has been my case with Scandinavian jewelry brand Bjørg.

There it goes, to the top of our wish-list, the new Jasper Travel purse by Acne. We love it because it irresistibly smells like Spring and because the word ‘travel’ is included in its name. The union of these two factors together is also commonly known as pure perfection. You can buy it online,...
