Dead

We fought, we lost, we're giving up. Brgnstil is over, but perhaps we'll see you again some time. Until then, goodbye.

They're getting younger

Would you believe that Lars is 15 years old? Impressive!

Perfect day

A denim skirt, printed sweater and shades with a chain is one heck of a cool combination for the spring.

How to do summer-dressing

The polkadots and flowers are so pretty and retro!

Layer on layer

Maren (16) is an expert in layering pieces on a cold day!

Riot on an empty street

Still winter, but lighter

Håkon adds just the right amount of brightness.

That coat

Rebecca (14) has pretty much the coolest winter coat of them all. Those are leopards you see, yes.

Still winter

Eira (17) wears her bright turquoise eyeliner on cold, rainy day - and it really brightens everything up!

The nicest combo

You went so fast, I didn't even get your name. Care to send it via the Brgnstil?

Beklager for lite oppdateringer, men Karoline har sluttet med siden. Dermed sitter jeg med arbeidet alene. Vi har alltid drevet Brgnstil som en hobby på fritiden, men nå er det faktisk sånn at det er lite fritid og lite penger (vi får jo tross alt ikke betalt for å holde på med Brgnstil). Værforholdene i Bergen er jo heller ikke perfekte, med mye regn og mye mørke. Dette gjør det ikke lett for fotografene.

Jeg håper dere forstår hvorfor ikke Brgnstil kan bli oppdatert så ofte som egentlig er ønskelig.

Kommentarfunksjonen blir midlertidig skjult, mest fordi jeg er lei å slette negative og usaklige kommentarer som ikke er relevante.

Overlook

Runa (16) likes to wear tight jeans, large t-shirts with a cardigan and always a scarf! - I buy most of my clothes at H&M and Pepper, but as long as i like the outfit, i'll wear it, regardless of brand or shop.

Details matter

Cato (25) is an art student

Notice: I don't mean to advertize for Platekompaniet. It's just I always stumble upon great-looking people there. Besides, it's dark and raining outside.

Alterna

Susanne Foss Nordvik (15) and Daniel Egenes Lanesskog (16) gets most of their clothes from skate shops like Swag.

Red is a statement

Inger Lise (20) knows what she likes, but doesn't care too much where she gets her clothes from, as long as she really likes them.

is like....NIKEEE!!

Snorre Solberg is a young and dedicated sneaker freak. He started collecting "for real" a year ago. Now he's got a pretty amazing collection of kicks. "I dont collect special types of sneaks, like for ex. Air max, but I'm more into having a variable collection even though most of my sneaks are Nikes".

Introducing

Here's our new photographer, Maria. She's our newest addition to Brgnstil, and you'll be seing quite a lot of her photos here in the near future. We're looking very much forward to cooperating with her and bringing you more inspiration.

Go see no. 2

Another HUFF board-member, Marie (16), wants you to go see Grindhouse.

Come to the Grindhouse

Embla (16) is a board-member of HUFF, a film-club for young people in Bergen. Monday they're showing "Grindhouse" (both Death Proof and Planet Terror). If you're in Bergen, don't miss the opportunity to see the entire movie for the first time ever in Norway plus a concert with Matias Tellez!

Wanna be a street style photographer?

Kjære lesere,

I det siste har vi hatt det veldig travelt og vi ønsker ikke at det skal gå utover Brgnstil, et prosjekt vi er glad i. Derfor søker vi nå et nytt medlem i Brgnstil-familien, en fotograf som kan hjelpe oss til hyppigere oppdateringer. Vi som jobber med Brgnstil får ikke betalt for arbeidet vi gjør, men er du interessert i god stil, fotografering og mennesker er dette kanskje noe for deg.

Om du er interessert, send oss en mail der du forteller litt om deg selv og det er fint om du legger ved noen bilder du har tatt.

- Brgnstil, Karoline + Alisa

Future plans

We met these guys at the new Dropz store in Skostredet, Claudio (28) and Giovanni (35).
Claudio had loads of good Dropz-news to spill: "Well, this is pretty much our playground where we [the guys of Dropz - not all of them pictured here] only do things that we like. We are very different from each other and have quite different personal styles - it equals good business. And it's getting better and better. We're going to sell special edition pieces by Black Milk and Mocca which are made exclusively for Dropz. We are also going to start our own brand which will focus on quality. Maybe we'll even open a lounge."
Keep your eyes open for Dropz in the near future.

The ultimate matcher

We ran into Cecilie (21) at a record shop and immediately fell in love with her perfectly matched outfit. "I'm quite fond of colour and the 50's and 60's. I also sew a bit. I almost always wear skirts and dresses, so I own very few pants."

Paper feature

We are featured in the newest edition of Studvest, a local student newspaper. You can also view the article on the internet here. Check it out!

Heading for Paris

These guys, Mario (19) and Martin (21), are quite a cheerful bunch. "I'm in the marketing business as well as being a DJ - while Mario over here [makes pointing sign] is a skater/manager for Kakkmaddafakka, Snill Pose and Matias Tellez/writer for Natt&Dag. There's a whole lot of slashes," tells Martin. "And I'll soon be on my way to Paris," adds Mario.

Bergen = rain

Pernille (23) looked quite fresh and happy in the pouring rain. "I'm wearing a raincoat and waterproof boots because it's really practical. I dug up this scarf in my mother's closet."

We adore Inga's (19) cute style. "Today I'm wearing tights, which are my fashion staple, and a new shirt from H&M. I often choose my clothes randomly, and never plan an exact outfit."

Cool cat

We saw Sverre (32) the other day from across the street and working our way over to him was quite hard, but we don't regret a bit risking to get hit by a car! Check out his tiny iPod (attached to his bag) - the matching between the iPod and the belt is really cool.

Black Milk Basso

Anette (22) caught our eye with her great colour-combination. She is currently writing for Natt & Dag, a free paper/magazine which works as a source of inspiration to many people in Bergen. "I got this t-shirt yesterday from my friend, Torgeir. Not only is it cool, but also it's great promo for his online-shop, Dropz.no."

This charming lady was on her way to a wine and cheese party, but took time to share a fashion tip: "I think people should wear more colours. Black clothing doesn't make us happy!"

Wimbledon perhaps?

Lars (24) has not only a great sence of style, but also a cool ride (check out the details on the wheel). "I would categorize my way of dressing as old school tennis style."

Colour coordinate

We think Valborg masters the art of colour-coordinating and matching with elegance and charm.

Air Max

Tarik (16) is basically our sneaker-guru. "These is my first pair of Nike Air Max. They're the best!"
