Lund culture and Stockholm fashion

Kulturen is one of our favorite spots in Lund, Sweden and when we visit my old home town this is usually on the list of things-to-do.  It's an open air museum with a wide range of historical houses located in the center of town -- homes that you can enter and really get a feeling for life back in the day of different eras.  Also they have interesting exhibits.  Currently Carl Bengtsson's fashion photography is showing.  Isn't this stunning?

They have a wide range of exhibits but being interested in fashion (although sometimes hard to tell) I fell for this one which is showing until November 3rd, and the one to come on Gudrun Sjöden in late 2014 through 2015.  This Swedish designer is an inspiration, she follows her own muse and makes beautiful clothes that women of all sizes, shapes and colors can comfortably wear and feel good about.  I love her clothes and wish that she would open a store in Boston (hint, hint)!  There's one in Soho on 50 Greene Street that just opened.  Check it out, and here is the link to the website  Gudrun Sjoden Autumn Collection
