TikTokers have become obsessed with shopping her brand, where she sells simple, well-made basics. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of videos of women unboxing their Djerf Avenue pieces and showing off the impeccable fit and expert tailoring. And I must say, they’re all pretty convincing.
In recent months, I’ve realized my style falls into the ‘Scandi style’ category very well — which is all about comfort and functionality, but also individualism and bright color palettes. Scandinavian women like Djerf have mastered the intersection of minimalism and maximalism, and I’m striving to achieve that same balance.
I try to keep my shopping picks neutral and basic, but sometimes I fall in love with a colorful statement piece. When getting dressed, I tend to start with jeans and a tee shirt, then add something bright and slightly clashing. Even my apartment reflects this approach. My furniture is simple and neutral, but I accessorize with loud colors and funky shapes.
In true Scandi-fashion, I compiled six key items to achieve this effortlessly cool look. BRB while I go spend my entire paycheck at Djerf Avenue... In the meantime, keep scrolling for the staples you’ll need to recreate Matilda Djerf’s style.

Oversized Blazers
Oversized blazers are Matilda Djerf’s go-to. She styles them over mini dresses and with slouchy trousers.
Slouchy Trousers
While I’m not a proponent of any pants lower than high-rise, Djerf’s slouchy trousers could get me on board with mid-rise (nope, still not going to wear low-rise anything).
Mini Handbags
As far as accessories go, Djerf is always carrying a mini bag. While they may not be the most practical, they’re super cute and they force you to evaluate what you really need when leaving the house.
Sweet Sweaters
Djerf opts for sweet knits rather than oversized, thicker sweaters. To truly adapt to Scandi-girl style, try a bold color or a dainty pattern.
Cool Sneakers
For footwear, Djerf is incredibly practical. As a mini sneakerhead myself, I love her minimal yet cool sneaker choices.
Comfy Button-Downs
Button-downs are probably the most prevalent piece on Djerf’s social pages. She has an expansive collection, making me want to venture away from my classic white tee shirts.
