so i am doing it!

i bought like 10 books on how to successfully start & manage your own fashion label,
guides on how-not-to-be-one-of-these-post-fashion-design-students-who-suck-because-they-don’t-know-anything-about-business.
I kind of am that, haha
BUT I DON’T CARE.

I want this to happen. I want this to be my life and it’s so encouraging to read about how other people, much less fortunate
than me without a fashion degree or a cent started off.
What’s that paper for? I wont put my degree in a frame if I cannot live up to being an actual Designer.
And I have so many ideas bowling up in my head, so much I still need to learn.

I know there will be failures. I know fashionshool will seem like a spa-trip compared to that.
I know I will mess up alot of things but I know in the end it’ll all be worth it and I need to do this on my own.

Just so you all understand why I kind of gave up on this blog, life happened.

But I will moove this blog soon and take you with me on a journey towards MARY OH!.

wish me luck!

…Or when your heart sinks 6 miles, to the bottom of the ocean.

“you look like you’ve been for breakfast at the heartbreak hotel

..your waitress was miserable, and so was your food…”

What a genius film. Adam Sandler can be funny after all. As Director, I mean.
Alex Turner should quit the Arctic Monkeys and only sing on his own.
Great Music. Colors, Dreams,Humour.

I am not drowned people.
I am working on things.

to come soon….

they all reflect my vision of a modern lingerie-label,

but that’s the big Problem I have:

I kinda love them all!

SO, I am throwing them out there to you, What do you think  folksies : ) ?
Of course the branding and will be done, color shemes added and so on,
But that logo is the basis the whole thing will be build upon.

Please help my love-blinded-eyes see clearly again.

♡♡♡

merci,

mary.

Hello Lovers!
So sorry for my absence, but I didn’t cheat on you,

My label will be called “mary oh!”,

So get exited!!

burn it down, until the embers smoke on the ground
and start new, when your heart is an empty room.

This is my favorite Agent Provocateur Set from the AW/2010 Private Tapes Collection.

It is wicked like a cute-nurse dress-up,
or a private waitress,
but for me there is something so Moulin Rouge about it.
A modern interpretation of classical Elements
and the game between cute & kinky that I love the most.

I am a Mister Brightside-Girl.

My eyes hurt from the light coming out of this door
that country behind it is beautiful,strange and so cruel.
My lungs wouldn’t catch no oxygen there, I wasn’t told.
I was crawling up the stairs to that Party You fooled.
You invited yourself, your foot in the door.

Didn’t you hear the music is outside?!
Oh, I  made you deaf and myself cry.
Stuffed Feathers in your Heart & Ears.
What silly bird. It learned now how to fly!

The old lake is frozen up, covered with glistening shades.
It’s all shiny new -still fragile to break,
but as the cracking gets stronger,
the fear just fades.

Leave the bags up there in the dark,
Come chase the dancing kids with me down in the yard!
Their heels are cracking, soon they’ll grow old.

There is never a halfway passage,
No Maybe Baby, you haven’t been told.

I am running down the stairs towards the sun,
close the door behind you, this isn’t fun.
I wanna dance with you and walk on,
I look in one direction where I know I belong.

I am a Mister-Brightside-Girl.

I am totally in love with the feeling this label evokes:
THE LAKE & STARS

Their Lingerie makes me want to go on a self-finding-trip,
chase black cats in the darkest garden on a dewy summer night.
Especially the mysterious 70ies-vibe of their SS 2011 collection.

I really love their approach towards lingerie design,
playing with layers on the skin,
to be able to sculpt our body but in total respect on how a woman
will feel wearing it.
You are so right ladies, if it’s not comfortable we do not feel confident!
Lingerie should always make ourselfs feel best in just our skin- but with some little
layers on to enhance our best features.

cheers to New York for that!
