11 TH STREET, BROOKLYN - EDDA PETURSDOTTIR, MODEL + BRAND PARTNER OF THE ACTIVEWEAR BRAND, VYAYAMA

Stories

Photography by Anna Palma

Anna took these beautiful photos of Edda. Both of these beauties herald from Iceland, and through them I have ended up visiting and working in Iceland many times, its one of my favorite places!. There is something in the Icelandic water that produces strong, independent, talented and beautiful women!

I love the story that they told, it has a feeling of not being overly produced, authentic, all about moments, sexy.

Edda has partnered up with Vyayama, which was foundered a year and a half by a group of creatives in NYC and Oregon. They focus on offering an alternative to synthetic yoga wear. All the garments are crafted in Europe from sustainable grown eucalyptus trees, certified non toxic and non harmful to the skin.

WHAT DOES HOME MEAN TO YOU?

A HOME IS SOMEWHERE WHERE I CAN BE MYSELF, MY SAFETY NET. WHETHER IT IS IN MY BROOKLYN APARTMENT OR WITH MY FAMILY BACK IN ICELAND. MY HOME IS MY HAPPY PLACE, MY SANCTUARY.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TIME OF DAY TO BE AT HOME?

MY FAVORITE TIME IS AROUND SUNSET, SITTING ON MY TERRACE, WATCHING THE VIEW. ON SUNDAYS THEY USUALLY HAVE LIFE MUSIC THAT MAKES THE NEIGHBORHOOD COME TO LIFE AS WELL. JUST MAGIC.

IF YOU WERE A SUPER HERO WHAT WOULD BE YOUR FAVORITE POWER?

TO BE ABLE TO READ PEOPLES MINDS! HAHA WOULDN'T THAT BE COOL

WHICH PEOPLE LIVING OR DEAD WOULD BE AT YOUR DREAM DINNER PARTY?

STELLA MCCARTNEY, LIVIA FIRTH, OLAFUR ELIASSON

ITS YOUR LAST MEAL ON EARTH, YOU CAN HAVE ANYTHING YOUR HEART DESIRES, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO EAT?

ICELANDIC COD, LOTS OF VEGGIES IN OLIVE OIL AND BAKED POTATO WITH BUTTER YUM! DEFIANTLY SOME SWEET CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR DESERT. I HAVE A BIG SWEET TOOTH.

IF YOU COULD LIVE ANYWHERE ELSE WHERE WOULD IT BE AND WHY?

AT THE MOMENT BERLIN IS ON THE TOP OF MY LIST. ITS A VERY CREATIVE CITY, LAID BACK PEOPLE AND I LIKE THE STREET STYLE FASHION THERE, TOTALLY UP MY ALLEY.
