Write your own story
It is always such pleasure when working with such tremendously beautiful brands like Montblanc to explore and discover more in depth their products. Not only in Switzerland but also worldwide, it’s definitely one of those statement labels known for their sophisticated, luxurious, sleek and above all iconic aesthetics that always quite fascinated me. In fact, I knew that for my dad’s birthday, I needed to find him a timeless Montblanc writing piece so that he could have a spice of me with him anywhere he goes and write stories down from the tip of it’s ink, knowing that I’m thinking about him no matter what. I got it in black and engraved with some honey sweet words.
With time, I became so sensitive to quality. I believe it is because living in Switzerland, we’re surrounded by such an incredible market of jewelers, the bar is set so high. The craftsmanship is truly something unique. And so when I have the chance to stumble upon a treasure like this gorgeous Montblanc writing tool, I can’t but be in awe. It’s small to be handy enough to take everywhere with you, almost quite mystical in the way it opens up by twisting the bottom to release the tip, so elegant with it’s royal blue gem stone yet timeless and discrete with it’s pure white color. I felt so proud and honored to simply hold it my hand.
Writing has always been something extremely important to me as you may have noticed. I need to put my thoughts out there. It’s almost like my therapy session. I love expressing my emotions and really believe in the idea that we all write our own stories. I guess this is really the main, key message I want to share on Kayture actually. Is that no matter where you are, who you are, what you do, you can, with the help of your creativity and ideas, create the most incredible tale and strive to achieve your dreams.
Words are just as important as actions for me, they help me stay centered and focused. They invite me to dream and to escape from time to time as well in this busy life. Since I’m a little kid, I always loved drawing and of course music has always been a big part of my life. I spend hours writing song lyrics and have dozens of notebooks filled in with quotes, rhymes and verses. Even though I’m constantly glued to my computer, I need this bond with something tangible. Be able to hold a piece of paper in my hand, let my hand loose on paper with some ink. There are after all so many ways to write stories.

I love your photos, super classy! May I know which camera you use?
I love to write as well and that's why I started blogging about my life, fashion, travel and discoveries in Finland/Singapore and everywhere in between as it's a unique time of my life and I want to capture every piece of it :)

That's one thing I really miss from my childhood; writing with pen and paper. It's something that feels so organic and always produces the most creative and original ideas. I've actually started writing again, not on my laptop as I must for my blog, but in a beautiful notebook. One thing I do need though is a pen like this, to make it feel that much more special.
Another fabulous post (you two work so damn hard!).

Beautiful post, Kristina. I enjoy reading them as much as looking at the beautiful photos every day.
My dad has had a Montblanc pen and fountain pen for as long as I can remember, the thing with high quality and craftsmanship is that it last forever so it really pays to buy expensive things. I always say that if you buy something cheap you buy twice.
I had no idea you were left-handed, so am I!! I've been told that left-handed people are more creative and I believe it to be true. It may sound cheesy but I love finding out things we have in common because I look up to you so much. We are both only children, we have the same name and we share a passion for fashion, travelling and craftsmanship. We are perfectionists and control freaks. I love music too, I play the piano but I feel shy about performing in public. I also used to draw as a child, unfortunately I've been drawing less and less as I grow older, it's a shame... And the list goes on! But I will stop because this comment is getting way too long ;)

Wow, so lovely. I love to write as well. Stack of notebooks everywhere in my room. It is so peaceful just to let the thoughts sink in and write away our emotions. It so easy for us (especially in this generation) to be on our laptops and let the keyboard be our ink. Holding an actual pen is more real to me than typing on a keyboard. Writing a story on paper, makes words more interesting in the style of our own personal writing. :) Love your outfit as well Kristina! Very elegant. xx

omg that is incredible ! I can rely to your writing story so much ! And what a surprise, in a few days I was planning on writing a blog post about that as well ! Indeed, at the Magritte Museum in Brussels, I have found a journal, looking like a book, and the title is "everyday is a novel". Like you, writing is a big part of my life, with my blog and then with all my journal , diaries and stuff.
I really like this pencil, so chic and timeless...
The photos are beautiful :)

It's amazing how you always find a beautiful stories to "sell" the products your present to us. Each post is really neat (picture and story-wise) compare to this http://www.theblondesalad.com/2014/09/boheme-in-shanghai.html which is very poor and tacky in my opinion; barely two lines of text and pictures of bad quality (sorry but I couldn't help the comparision). Keep up the good work I have the feeling that you'll go far far far :-). What you do is art!
Lots of kisses
