Fancy a bit of SAFARI? You should definitely check out H&M's current Trend collection and fall in luuuuuuuuurve <3 Beautifully embellished pieces in earthy tones with a lot of character to every single one. When I stepped into the section the connection between me and this jacket couldn't be seperated by anything, so this lovely quilted bomber jacket with a leave print said hi to her new mummy and went over the til into the bag into my wardrobe.

Heeeeeeeeeeeellooooooooo SUMMER <3

Eventhough the pale season should have been over much earlier, I'm still more than happy to have some sun dominating my day now. I just couldn't wait any longer to take my new silver mirror bag for a walk. Well and for those who wonder where it's from - ZARA! Absolutely loving their attention to detail, especially the gold hardware on this silver bag. Did summer hit your country yet?

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER OUTFIT!

So this is my second fit with the Luxe Heaven Tee by Corner Ambition. This time I went for some popping red lipstick by Mac. This gives the little extra for my wild night outfit :) Unfortunately I had to take the pictures during the day but nevertheless I'm sure you can feel this fit for a night out!

I wore my favourite boots by Zara which are definitely inspired by them Givenchy boots who everyone is still craving for. Believe me I think my ones do their job as well. As there can't be enough leather ever I had to wear those loose leather shorts which I got at Topshop a month ago. The chunky cuban link necklace and some huge earstuds and there you go <3

So here it finally is, the outfit post rocking my Luxe Heaven Tee by Corner Ambition. I was in bed with a heavy cold but as soon as I just felt a bit better I had to get my a** out in the sun so I could show you what arrived from the US last week! You can imagine my happy face opening the package and seeing this impeccably printed tee. I have had a little obsession with khaki in the past few months so I just decided to match those pieces with it as I love the combination of earthy green tones mixed with popping orange colours. In this post I wanted to go for a chilled look as I would wear it on a day-to-day basis but I also decided to prepare another one for you to see how to pair it up for a wild night :) Stay tuned!

Being obsessed with leather items I just had to get those burgundy pants to fill up my wardrobe even more. Now that I have worn them for the first time I need to add that I forgot how uncomfortable it can get, whenever the leather item is very fitted. Not my favourite pair of trousers but definitely worth wearing for a little wow effect.

I guess it's time to share a very private moment with you. Yes it gets as private as taking you to the toilet with me. Do not worry all you will see is me not being able to stop moving to some of the most beautiful electronic beats on this earth. This is possible by attending Time Warp, which was held in Mannheim last weekend and made people travel from France, Italy, Holland, Spain, UK just to be able to listen to those neverending breathtaking sets produced by some of the industries hottest DJs.
A line-up including Loco Dice, Luciano, Marco Carola, Richie Hawtin, Mathias Kaden, Carl Cox, Len Faki, Matthias Tanzmann, KeineMusik says everything. Anyone out there who was there and understands how happy I am after having been there? :)

HAPPY GIRLS ARE THE PRETTIEST

Since having bought them Isabel Marant sneaker wedges I have had difficulties to wear them beauties in all this rainy weather. Suede leather is simply a flop in the wardrobe if you live in London but even with a few stains they are still one of my favourite pairs in my shoe paradise <3

SELECTED x IMPERFECT PERFECTIONISTA

2013-03-19T13:50:00.001Z

Last week I had the pleasure to be invited to be part of a little trailer for my friends event.

SELECTED is the name of it and this probably says it all already. Everything is selected carefully from DOPE music to CRAZY drinks and of course UNIQUE people that are invited. Muri, who is behind all this magic, has done an amazing job as usual. So clap your haaaaands everybody and let's go have a BIIIIIG PARTY <3

Recently I have been talking a lot about Nipster on my blog and mentioned also that there will be a little collaboration going on with them. So today I'm able to show you some beautiful shots they took of me that day and also the released interview on their website. My favourite image out of all was the one I chose to put in this post as I just love how the background takes most of the space in the visual.

Never have been a fan of Navy I had to become one when this Maison Martin Margiela x H&M Dart Sweater was released. Usually I hate to combine black and navy but here I made an exception it was black leather I combined it with. Some slouchy boots and matching long leather gloves made my fit complete.

Fashion Week Fever is over and I must say it was an amazing time with everyone that was involved in it. Meeting insanely interesting people, partying hard next to beauties like Rita Ora, running in 5inch high heels from one spot to the other, forgetting what the word "food" actually means and so many other things make the time unforgettable. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get outfit shots of my last 2 outfits due to lack of time so here we go with a little update of my daily wear again.

The new gem in my wardrobe is this beautiful silk satin bomber jacket with beautifully embroidered flowers and birds and yes ZARA is producing incredible pieces like this.

Great pleasure to get a shot of incredibly beautiful Olivia Palermo just before the Topshop Unique AW 2013 show. Oh and I'm so much in love with her shoes and pants. Summer is coming!

LFW // DAY 3

2013-03-03T19:11:00.000Z

The third session of entering the fashion jungle was extremely hard to handle as the cold just hit London that day. I was actually very lucky to be able to wear a beautiful padded Jacket by Topshop Unique which kept me (upper half) warm. Believe me the cold disappeared when Olivia Palermo, Lena Perminova and Jourdan Dunn posed for the camera at the Topshop Unique show. Streetstyle shots of them in my next post :)

KOKON TO ZAI has officially killed it again. Contrast prints - faux fur - leather - oversized shapes, basically everything that makes a Londoner heart beat faster. It's the heavyness of the materials I'm in love with and also the oversized silhouettes that make me want to buy the whole collection even if I will look like a XXL Hippo. The coolness of the whole show just blew my mind away and it's just because they make the impossible possible with being able to produce extremly eye catchy pieces for the mass. AW 2013 I cannot wait for you to arrive.

LFW // DAY 2

2013-02-25T19:20:00.001Z

Yeeees I'm wearing flat boots! As I'm faaaaaar faaaaar away from being Anna Wintour who is picked up by fancy cars I decided to go for a rather relaxed outfit. After a hectic Day 1 it was exactly what I needed and that's how I even found the time to take some street style shots.

As you all know Fashion Week Season has started and also has made it's way to London. So did I.

In the last picture you can see my driving my Lamborghini hahahaha :) Sorry but how can I not be joking around even if I'm working. That just wouldn't make sense. Anyways everything went smooth besides the fact that I didn't have any internet connection so that's why there is a little delay with my updates. I know you won't mind because you simply have no other choice hahaha! Show reviews will follow in the next post as this one is mainly about the outfit of Day 1.

PERFECT DARKNESS // LIE PHOTOGRAPHY

2013-02-11T01:16:00.000Z

Since I moved to the UK I became a completely different persona. The mentality of this country is to be open minded and accept people for what they want to be. This has helped me to become very much who I am today. Meeting new people is extremely important to me.

Many times the opinion of other people could open your eyes, simply give you a whole new vision about yourself and other factors in life. It might just be a comment that makes you change your mind. One of my friends who made a change in my thinking is Natalie, who is a young beautiful lady trying to start her career in photography. Since she has given me great support throughout the past months I will try and give the love back to her. She gives me hope when I'm about to loose myself and keeps pushing until I get back on track. Thank you for that! (I hope she will be reading this haha)

Go and check out some of her work and make sure to like the page and stay updated with future shots of ours :)
