Today I wore this fun combo of green MaxMara coat, knitted sweeter from IRO, bag from Lindex & shades: Prada.
Tomorrow I'm doing something extremely fun that I've longed to do. It's permanent and will make my summer life/face in South of France much easier, not to mention prettier … Will tell you more in time!

My practical and gorgeous silk lashes I just put (had them all the time in Morocco and on these photos) on are made by the one and only Magda (insta: Magdis84) - right now she's offering a new set of silk, super natural lashes (like the ones I having here, the same length as my own, but black and fuller) or longer, she is really a perfectionist and is the best on town many regular eye lash customers say! Until end of April she's offering 650SEK (1300kr normally) for a new, full set and same price for refreshing set (if you mention Stina Auer when booking) - call her at 070-462 49 91 - her place is located at Birgerjarlsgatan 84 in Stockholm.

#superrolemodel LINDEX collection
Lindex - the upcoming brand, perfect for everyday when you want to look feminine, chic yet with an easy going feeling to it - has started a campaign called #superrolemodels where they collaborate with some amazing supermodels that also do something for the world as a major project in their life.
I love what Lindex has done to high street fashion in Sweden and Europe and I also love the staff that works with the marketing and the designer herself. They're all a great bunch of strong women, very inspirational.
The very thought through campaign was launched today and has so many great summer pieces in it, but most of all, the sale goes partly to these different organisations which try to do something beyond for all humans and the planet we're living in. They also sell this white T-shirt with the same hashtag on and if you buy it, the profit goes directly there. This is my favourite! Or this set with the top and the pants!
One of the women being a face and a profile for this wonderful campaign, is the always so humble, not to mention gorgeous Christy Turlington. I love reading interviews therefor I though I should publish one where she answers some questions for this collaboration with Lindex.
Written Q&A Requests.
Christy Turlington
- For the Lindex Spring/Summer 2015 wardrobe, what are your three must-haves and why have you chosen them?
- MY SUPER PICKS AS WE CALLED THEM, WERE THE JUMPSUIT, THE BLACK AND WHITE TOP AND THE PONCHO DRESS WITH FRINGE. I LOOKED AT THE COLLECTION AND THOUGHT OF MY OWN LIFE AND WHICH PIECES WOULD BE EASY TO TRAVEL WITH AND OFFER THE MOST FLEXIBILITY AND FELT THAT THESE THREE WOULD.
- What’s your secret to balancing your career and your personal life, and how do you do it?
- There are no secrets. I do the best that I can each day and sometimes I do better than others. Since I became a mother, my priorities are my family then the other things I do that help me to be the best mom and version of myself I can be. Being healthy and staying active helps me to be all of these things.
- What are the things you love to do most with your friends and family?
- I love to travel and have adventures with friends and family.
- What’s been the best thing about working with Lindex on this campaign shoot?
- IT WAS REALLY NICE TO MEET NEW FRIENDS. I DON’T OFTEN MEET NEW PEOPLE IN THE INDUSTRY AND I WENT INTO THIS SHOOT ONLY KNOWING LIYA.
- Which is your favourite look from this collection and why?
- MY FAVORITE PIECE WAS THE BLACK AND WHITE JUMPSUIT. I AM A BIG FAN OF JUMPSUITS ALREADY BUT WHAT I REALLY LIKED ABOUT THIS ONE IS THAT IT CAN SO EASILY BE DRESSED UP OR DOWN
- I guess one is the means to the other. I think style is something that is quite individual. The way a person chooses to present themselves through fashion can say a lot about them as a person. I am very practical and tend to dress for what I need to do in a given activity. Mostly I just want to be comfortable and not feel over shadowed by the things I wear.
- How do you think style and fashion can empower women to look and feel great?
- I think when a woman feels confident she is empowered so whatever it might be that makes us feel ourselves and most grounded. For some that means embellishing themselves and dressing up and for others, like me, it means keeping things simple, more minimal.
- What’s the best memory you have from entire career as a model?
- What’s the best memory you have from entire career as a model?
- There are too many to name. I often think about experiences rather than specific memories and those are usually from trips in exotic locations. I remember the first trip to Tanzania shooting for British Vogue with Arthur Elgort as the photographer. That one really stands out in my mind.
- Can you name your best and worst fashion moments from your career?
- I don’t really know what would be my best since in my career others dress me as they choose. I do remember a phase in the early 90’s when we would all dress up like old ladies in Chanel tweeds with lots of jewelry.
- In your own wardrobe, what are the three items you can’t live without and why?
- Good jeans, chunky sweaters, great t-shirts, a well-cut blazer. I could probably live without all of these items but they tend to be the items I would miss the most.
- What are the three beauty products you can’t live without and why?
- Maybelline Lash Sensational is my go to mascara that I wear everyday, Imedeen Time Perfection supplements for beautiful and healthy skin and a great moisturizer or facial oil.
- When times are stressful, how do you stay looking fresh and put together?
- A good night’s sleep is my answer to almost everything. If I can’t get that a yoga class or a short run will help get me back on track again. Having a few classic pieces in your wardrobe will make it easier to make good choices in a pinch.
- Can you describe what it means to you to be a super role model?
- I guess it means aspiring to be my best self every day, not only for myself but for those around me who look to me for guidance or leadership..
- Who in your life is a super role model to you and why?
- My mom was definitely my first role model and then my older sister after her. They are both women I look up to because of the choices they have made in life. I have had many role models throughout the years. There are qualities in every woman that I admire and respect.
- What was it that made you found Every Mother Counts?
- After experiencing a complication after delivering my daughter in 2003 I became a maternal health advocate. I learned that hundreds of thousands of girls and women die each year bringing life into the world because they don’t have access to basic or emergency obstetric care that could easily save their lives. I went on to make a documentary film called No Woman, No Cry and then founded Every Mother Counts in 2010 to continue to educate others about the challenges and solutions that could improve birth outcomes for both mothers and babies around the world.
- What has been its greatest success so far?
- We currently support programs in seven countries that address three of the main barriers women face when in need of critical maternal healthcare; education, transportation and supplies. We have impacted more than 70,000 lives so far.
- What are the future plans for Every Mother Counts in the next year?
- 2015 is the 5th anniversary of the documentary and organization. To mark this occasion we will be revisiting each of the countries highlighted in “No Woman, No Cry,” starting with Tanzania. We will be running the Kilimanjaro half marathon this March 1st in Tanzania to commemorate this important development milestone year and to put a spotlight on one of the biggest barriers women face- distance.
.
- Can you name five essentials for your handbag - and explain why you have chosen them?
1. A Moleskin notebook- I am a note taker and a list maker.
2. Hand cream- my hands get so dry in the winter
3. Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara
4. A charger for my phone
5. A book- any chance I get I try to read
- How has your beauty regime and styling regime changed since you became a mother?
- How has your beauty regime and styling regime changed since you became a mother?
- It’s pretty consistent with life before children though time is even more precious so a ten-minute process has come down to five minutes

WEDNESDAY LIST
So - what have you do this past Wednesday Stina?
- Well, except for taking care of my small kids in the morning and kissing them Good Buy and then running off to a full day of wonderful patients - I've also did something extremely fun and very much needed.
I had the very talented Jenny Hanzon (click here) that is a colleague of mine at Akademikliniken, tattoo permanent makeup, very discretely with 3D technique which makes it look so pretty and natural, on my eyebrows and the lips. They looks smashing and I can't wait to see it healed in a week or so. Many years back I was frightened about these sort of permanent makeup things, but today they looks so good it's hard to see that they are done.
The eyebrows are made looking like natural hair and my lips are just slightly enhanced in the counter without looking hard or unnatural. I was also surprised that it hardly hurt, I put on my anaesthetics, maybe that's why, but honestly, it was easy peasy!
I'm very happy that I did this, it's been on my mind forever since I have to colour them else every second week and I never leave home without some lipstick. The less i need to do on myself, the better. Not to mention how marvellous it will be in the summer when bathing etc! Tres chic!
What was the best part of Morocco?
- Spending time with my man and eating so much delicious food and also learning more about how to cook it at home!
- What happens in the nearest future of excitement?
- Well next weekend I'm off to Monaco partly for work, that's going to be very interesting and wonderful. I have great memories from there. Click here to see.
- Any new desires for spring and summer?
- Absolutely, always. I get bored easily, sell it in my Stinas Vintage Store (click) and buy new things. This beautiful jumpsuit with lace behind is a piece I've looked at for some days now ... Love the snake espadrilles also with a higher sole. Perfect for a stylish everyday.
Tell me something we don't already now about you?
- I very often have two dinners. One at 6.30pm and one at 9pm something. Can't go to bed with a empty belly. I am also deadly scared of snakes and M don't found it so amusing when I almost got a panic attack outside the Souk in Marrakech where these horrible cobra guys sits with there ultra scary snakes. Honestly, I am extremely scared and can't even see them on a picture.
What do you normally eat for breakfast?
- My often very chaotic, yet cosy in a way - breakfast at 7.15am contains a huge tea cup of strong coffee with plenty of milk, two pieces of some dark bread with butter and scrambled eggs. I eat a second small breakfast at 10am at work before having lunch at 12.
Isn't it hard that M is so often away and not seldom, almost a week at the time?
- Yes it is but the days are so completely full so I do miss him of course but hardly have time to think about that. Life though is SO much easier when he is around. The kids are very different to me then with to him. When i'm around they fight over me, whine more and seek my attention constantly. Their father is very warm and lovely but they beehive somewhat better with him. I've heard though that this often is the case with mothers versus father. Although I am a very firm mother also and stand by my rules and raise my voice many times during day, but I am also so in love with the kids and give them everything i can of warmth and cosiness.
I would love having us all under the same roof always, eventually it might be like that, but for the nearest future, not.
Which is the best jeans on the market?
- Really don't know but the comfiest is for sure the brand 2nd Day which I buy here. Just got my second pair. Swear, the feel like tights and those are the only jeans I can leave on at home when I'm coming back from work, they are so soft and comfy!

LEOPARD
This gorgeous and 100 percent silk coat from Greta I've had hidden in my closet since last season. It also comes with a strap so you can get more of a trench vibe from it. Perfect like today with a wool sweater under, or for parties, with the belt strap, wearing a dress underneath. That's what I love about Greta. It so useful!
A little bird also told me that GRETA is having an amazing SALE with very discounted prices on dresses, silk blouses, coats, gowns, pants etc etc this upcoming week, the 25-26th of Mars from 8.00-19.00 Grevturegatan 30, 1st floor. Amazing pieces form older collections, mostly in size Small but also Medium and Large.
This coat will be sold for a ridiculous price so MAKE SURE TO STOP BY and get yourself some amazing collections!

MONACO wknd
I've been to Monaco many times and I'm always reflected by the small and privileged beauty of this little place and love the atmospheric aura of the old and captured, the nature and the mountains behind.
The weather was outstanding (even though we were mostly inside during day, except for a well needed long lunch at the classic Hotel de Paris).
Funny thing is how well we're doing in Sweden when talking about injection of Hyaluronic acid (fillers like Restylane, Teosyal, Juvederm, Emervel) and Botox. We're so advanced in our results and how we use it. Often when being around in congresses like this, where the best of the best is showing live demonstrations and presenting something new or results, I am thrilled to see that me and many in Sweden have been doing this already for a long time and get ten thousand better results then what's shown in the congresses or education's. Not to sound bracky, but Restylane, the absolute first filler on the market and still the world leading of safety and which have most research rapports, was made in Sweden 1996 and after influenced many other chemist to develop the rest that's now on the market and doing well.
Also the face of us from Scandinavia is still very natural and fresh looking while many of the women (mostly from East) look so made, so plumped and fixed.As if their face was ready to burst any minute. The body doesn't match the very fixed look of the top. Same with many women from arabian countries and down south of Europe, they are just too much. I could go around the whole day and just inspect other women. So much beauty, really outstandingly stunning women, but also very (fillers/plastic surgery/Botox) goes bad - results.
A woman of 50 years old should not look like a plastic made 35 year old in the face she should look like herself, but smoother and fresher, nothing else. Same with young women who just do too much. But different cultures really have different ways of pre suing beauty, a doctor from Europe told us that where he lives, if the treatment he did was not very visible, the patients was not happy while as in Scandinavia, that's considered a bad treatment. Depending on where you are, the result should clearly be more or less obvious, a sign that we clearly could allow us to witness in this congress.
I'm happy to find us all three very natural looking and people was very amazed by that. (Maybe some would like us as long time treaters, to do more and "take better care of ourselves", who knows?
More pictures soon!
