Sólbjört Sigurðardóttir is wearing:

Sequin pants from Hildur Yeoman. Apparently there is only one pair—they were a sample. I saw them at the store and I was like “Yeah, sold!”

Sweater from River Island

Earrings from tRASHY Collective

Boots from UNIF

style q&a

Describe your style in 5 words (or more!): Diverse. Colourful. Outgoing. A bit extra. I like to be overdressed rather than underdressed. I often get asked, “Where are you going? Are you going to a party?” No, I just felt like being a bit extra today! I often dress from my emotions. I own very few items of black clothing.

Favourite stores in Reykjavík: Aftur and Yeoman. There are so many but these two really stick out for me.

Favourite piece: My favourite is a silk scarf dress from Aftur. I will never let that go. I saw it in the window of Aftur and I was like, “I have to have this. I have to.” I also graduated in that dress. It has a silk waistband and it’s beautiful.

Something I would never wear: There’s not much, but probably not a regular fleece sweater. I’m also trying not to buy fast fashion. I’d rather buy from Icelandic designers, even though it’s a bit more expensive.

Lusting after: I would really like to have a custom-made suit or a custom-made jumpsuit from MYRKA. Harpa is a genius!
