Heiða Jónsdóttir Icelandic shop manager for handmade designer jewellery brand Orr @orrbykjartan
“My style depends on the season. In the winter time, I wear chunky knits with high heels. I like to find unique items from small shops and flea markets on my travels. We also have a lot of small treasures in our shop in Reykjavík. My dress and sweater are by my label Hildur Yeoman. The dress has our new print, a raven spell from the Westfjords, embroidered with a shiny thread. The shoes are from Icelandic label Kalda.”
“My style is classic and minimalist, with a subtle sense of goth and fetish. I tend to wear relaxed and loose-fitting clothes, dark colours and rich textiles. I like T-shirt dresses, silver jewellery and red lipstick. I don’t shop often, but when I do, I buy vintage and good-quality items. My boots are by Gardenia Copenhagen, the jewellery is by Orr, the coat belonged to my grandmother, the trousers are a gift from a friend and the dress is by Monki.”

I don’t shop very often, but when I do, I buy clothes that will last for a long time. I mainly shop in Reykjavík. My jeans are by Jack & Jones and the shoes are by Ecco.” 10 | Issue 131 | December 2019
