WHEN IN BERLIN...

Gina Tricot Jeans Jacket/ Zara Top/ Primark Pants, Sunnies & Bag/ Fossil Watch

Here is the full outfit post! Unplanned to be honest, hence the casual-ing (as Kristina would say). I was running around Berlin very casual again. I finally had time to relax and meet up with the amazing Dogi for coffee, who also shot these lovely photos! Unfortunately it has been raining here all day, every day (including today YES). I can't wait for some sunshine to appear again, so I can shoot some more summerly outfits. Especially since Berlin Fashion Week kicks off next Tuesday. I am glad to at least make 1 day of it, as my flight leaves on Wednesday :D Stay tuned to see what I'll be wearing! :)

Happy Weekend!

Hyde Park Afternoons

Hyde Park Afternoons. My dearest Diana, streetsyle phtotgrapher and editor of Trendbridged based in London, shot these lovely photos a while back. I finally got to share them with you guys and hope you like them! We chose the peaceful Hyde Park as it is quite the neutral location and did  well not to distract from my attempt of an almost 'all black everything' outftit.The background still gave it abit of color and made a grand contrast overall.

 I am wearing my all time favourite Zara coat (literally the purchase of my entire life - not even joking), a Bersha leatherette jacket underneath and a simple black vintage tee. I paired it with my cool River Island  ripped jeans that I just can't stop wearing, seriously! The bag is from Primark and the sunnies are vintage ones I bought during the Miista shoes sale awhile ago. My leopard brogues are the coolest thing in my wardrobe as of yet. Thanks to Bershka for making these hawt babes :D

Berlin {OOTD} #1

BERLIN. I am back home with my lovely family and friends and I couldn't be more happier. I arrived last Thursday and it was boiling hot, yes Summer at last! Today it's raining though, but I don't mind that either - it's finally cooling down and I have some more relaxed plans on the agenda. Yesterday I had the pleasure to shoot with the talented Dogi who is a Berlin based photographer/blogger. The photos came out gorgeous didn't they? It was one of the best shoots I've had so far and literally the quickest (30 mins). We chose the iconic location in Tiergarten with the Siegessäule in the background! Honestly, I am so inlove with these photos - I was so excited to share them with you. We hope you like them just as much. 

What are your thought on my outfit? 

I am wearing H&M Jacket/ Vintage Shirt/ River Island Jeans (similar here)/ Primark Sunnies and Bag/ Office Heels (here)

London Collections: Men Day 2

Pretaportobello Coat&Hat/ Sugarandstyle Pants&Clutch/ Primark Sunnies&Heels/ New Look Necklace

LCM. A really fun few days of London Collections: Men ended with HOM x Jonathan Saunders at Victoria House, for me. I couldn't attend as many shows as I initially had planned because of work. The ones I got to see were great though, including Velsvoir x October House, Oliver Spencer, Kaushal Niraula and a few more. I also enjoyed the numerous side events, such as the Duchamp Drinks Reception and the John Lewis event, which LCM actually kicked off with. I have lots of more photos to share but before that, here is my outfit for the second day. this is the only {OOTD} shoot me and Keno actually managed to shoot as we were both so crzay busy, rushing from show to presentation, to drinks and after show parties. I had a blast and can't wait for LCM's next season. 

I am crazy in love with these pants from SugarandStyle! They are so comfy and defintiely an eye catcher with that amazing print. I really liked my outfit as it was super comfy (not the heels part obviously haha) yet not too laid back. What do you think? :)

P.S. I landed in Berlin today, it's super hot and I am loving it. Can't wait to start shooting fro you from over here. Stay tuned xxx

London Collections: Men

London Collections: Men is finally kicking off tonight with the John Lewis event! I won't make it to the event but will try to at least pop in at the Duchamp Drinks Reception. I will definitely keep you posted on the shows from tomorrow onward. It's my first time to attend as again, around this time during my semester holidays, I'm normally in Berlin or the South of France. 

The British Fashion Council launched London Collections: Men in June 2012. It's the first bi-annual dedicated showcase for menswear designers in Britain. So exciting! As much as I love womenswear shows, there is nothing more delightful than a sharp dressed men on the catwalk! It's the third season of LCM and SS14 is meant to be the biggest yet. 

Stay tuned for my updates!

LAVAZZA MASTERCLASS

Lavazza Masterclass. In the context of the New Tradition, Lavazza invited us to as night full of coffee! The Masterclass, was indeed a masterclass as we learned so much; how Lavazza first started in 1895, how coffee was discovered, how it is grown, processed, roasted a and so much more. Could I possibly say no to an invite like that? Most certainly not. 

The Masterclass included obligatory coffee treats by Tony our lecturer for the evening (like the above - more like art really) and we learned how to make the above ourselves. Failed. Tried it again. Failed yet again, but still had way too much fun to be upset haha I finally got around using the steamer and am able to foam milk for my espresso now! How amazing is that? 

For any coffee lovers like myself out there I highly recommend looking into the whole history of coffee, as you will even more so appreciate your coffee experience, knowing the journey it has made to get to you. And really as Tony said: 'The best coffee is the one you make just how like it'!

Casualties of Life

Zara Coat/ UO Jumper/ H&M Blouse/ Primark Jeans and Loafers/River Island Hat

Casualties of Life. You don't find me wearing flats on the blog often! I just can't help it - I am obsessed with heels, okay but what girl isn't?! But since I don't really get to wear them in my everyday life (seriously, I don't want to die, running all around town every day haha) I even more so use the opportunity to mix them with my outfits for the blog. Long story short, I opted for loafers this time a) they are my favorite pair with the studs all over them b) they are oh so comfy and c) suited my mood after losing my iPhone *buhh*

P.S I just got back from the Lavazza Masterclass and can't wait to tell you all about it. That will be revealed tomorrow though! I will just leave you with this: I now know how foam milk with my great new love the A Modo Mio - waah waah weeh :D

SUNDAY

SPENT the usual Sunday in Brick Lane - only thing is, it wasn't that usual. My iPhone got stolen!!! :( I still can't believe it. The day started great. Met Keno and we headed to Kahaila  for a red velvet cake (which we sadly couldn't have, it was simply too packed), then went down to the food hall to eat some delicious food! Everything was great until I realized my phone was gone. I was devastated and still am. I mean, you can probably understand how important my phone is, especially as a blogger (Instagram HELLO)  However, there is nothing I can really do about losing it, and especially all my photos on it. I did call all necessary companies to get a replacement phone, since it FORTUNATELY is insured. So, all I can do now is wait!

Anyway, some happier news! Tonight I will  be attending the Lavazza Masterclass in the context of our New Tradition campaign I told you about. I couldn't be more excited! Learning how to use my new gorgeous coffee machine properly, making delicious Coffees, Espressos, Lattes and more, will most definitely cheer me up.

Have a great start to the week lovelies!

THE NEW TRADITION

New Tradition. Creating this outfit has been such a delight - I received this cool 47Brand snapback from CanoeInc recently and it was so sporty and cool that I was inspired to create my Lavazza x Wimbledon New Tradition outfit around it! I am wearing Bershka pants (similar here), Zara jumper (similar here), Vintage blazer (similar here), 47Brand snapback (here), Primark heels (similar here) and Marc B bag via Topshop (similar here). What do you think? Like it? 

I am in love! Green and purple (which the blue of my snapback has to substitute for) are the official colors for Wimbledon, the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament in the world. It's taking place this month and I have teamed up with Lavazza and Wimbledon for an exciting campaign. 

Why Lavazza you ask? For the third year, Lavazza is sharing the Italian espresso experience, being the official coffee for Wimbledon. Coffee is the essence for the Italian lifestyle and spectators at the Wimbledon tournament have had the chance to delightfully enjoy Lavazza coffee since 2011. I think I can speak for the majority when I say: I do love a good Espresso. Hence, I could not live without my morning ritual of indulging in a hot coffee. So naturally, I was thrilled to be chosen as one of the Bloggers to participate in this splendid challenge.

What's in it for you: This year we are celebrating The New Tradition Of Wimbledon and have some amazing prices for you in store. Create your New Tradition and you could win tickets to Wimbledon and more - read more about it HERE and I might see you there!
