The Fashion Smoothie

Zara / November 2010

2010-11-12T03:13:00.000-08:00

Online-Shopping is driving me slowly but surely into a financial ruin.The fact that weekly more
shops spring up like mushrooms doesn't make it better actually. While staying in bed ill the
last days, I caught myself once again in a virtual windowshopping-stroll at Topshop and
the other common suspects. Thereby I came across Zara's new lookbook. And what did my
eyes spot there next to some other delicacies? The perfect leopardprint coat, I've been
looking for so long now. Hopefully it will be avaible soon and find his way directly into
my shopping cart. Untill then I'm gonna dabble myself in a online-shopping-abstinence...

It's been a while since we spotted Rachel frequently in great looks but now she's definately back. She looks stunning in every single outfit. More please!

Les nuances d'automne:

2010-08-25T11:36:00.001-07:00

Since the temperatures over here are already going down it's time to think about the new season. Hard, but true: Summer's definately over!

This autumn it's all about colors like camel, beige and sand. Nearly every designer had a piece of those colors in his collection, preferably a long wide coat, reminiscent of businessmen's winter outerwear. I'm definately pro-camel but sometimes it looks a bit sallow and prude to me. To avoid such an effect I'd wear it with black leather or similar/nude colors and brown accessoires.

I already own a pair of camel booties which I bought in some little store in Paris last summer which I'm definately gonna take out again. I also spotted a nice cape in H&Ms autumn collection. Hopefully it will be available soon and for the rest - well let's see....

Les Filles en Vogue

2010-08-17T13:11:00.001-07:00

Sasha, Freja, Natasha, Constance and Sessilee at Hermès F/W 2010 RTW

About one month ago my lovely older sister went to France. It's always hard to bring something along for me that I really like, that's why I instructed her to bring some french fashion magazines only. In my opinion the french and british fashion press is much better and informative than the german one. On top of that it's a nice way to improve your language skills... By all means she also got me the current Vogue issue and luckily for me it contained the little documentation "Les Filles en Vogue": Sasha Pivovarova, Freja Beha Erichsen, Sessilee Lopez and Constance Jablonski were accompanied by Loïc Prigent (The September Issue and Le Jour d'Avant) during the Fall 2010 défiles at Paris FW. I totally enjoyed and loved this film of 52 minutes, because it allowed a look into the daily routine of a topmodel during FW, no matter if backstage, on, off or after the shows and contained a bunch of humour. I also liked that the models sometimes filmed by themselves. Even if the quality is not the best, it's definately worth watching it and if only to enjoy Freja's cool "Every thing is fine as long as I can smoke"-attitude and the prima ballerina Sasha in her sweet, freaky mannor.

Here's a little foretaste:

Vacation

2010-07-25T02:31:00.001-07:00

The Fashion Smoothie will be back in about 3 weeks.

Berlin FW: Arrondissement Aq1 / Schumacher / 30paarhaende

2010-07-19T02:08:00.000-07:00

Arrondissement Aq1

When the Arrondissement Aq1 show started I knew from the first look that it would be one of my favorites. The entire collection was pure but yet edgy and unsetting. The designer Christina Arend used mainly colors like grey, nude, black and anthrazit. I also fell in love with the accessories: Bold wedges in black and cream and statement necklaces. Some models also wore plastic beaks on their heads which reminded me a lot of the spiked Givenchy crown.

Schumacher

Schumacher was the show I was most excited about. As exspected the collection was to die for. A great color palette which ranged from pastel pink to burgundy and an amazing mix of high-class materials. And then the footwear and this leather satchel...I wanted to grab everything from the runway and sneak away. Eventually I left the show with my goody-bag (it contained a stylish and useful coffe-to-go-mug) and the insight that Milla Jovovich looks even fresher in real.

30paarhaende

Actually 30paarhaende ("30 pairs of hands" in English) is not a real label, it's a studying project of Berlin's school FHTW. To be honest, my exspectations weren't that high. I thought the creations would be totally crazy but in the end the students presented a bunch of trendy, fresh and mostly wearable looks that I totally adored. My conclusion: The team of the FHTW can definately compete with "real" designers. Besides Schumacher and Arrondissement Aq1 it was one of my favorite shows.

Berlin FW: Christina Duxa Couture / Dimitri / Anja Gockel

2010-07-14T06:00:00.000-07:00

Saturday night I came back from Berlin FW. It was my first time to attend a fashion week and even if it was not Paris or New York, it was a great experience and a chance to get a closer look into the fashion business. I learned a lot in the four days in and around the white tent at the Bebelplatz. And even if I'm still super tired and absolutely exhausted, I had a lot of fun and an unforgetable time. It's such a pity that there was not enough time to discover Berlin. The city's huge compared to the "village" I live in and has a lot to offer. Besides six shows I managed to see at the main location and a competition for young fashion designern off-site called "Start your fashion business", I also did some shopping - of course. Sigh, Berlin is a real shopping paradies.
But now back to the fashion. Here's the first part of my show recap:

Christina Duxa Couture

Christina Duxa Couture was the first fashion show I ever saw. Aftre some organisation problems at the beginning, the lights finally turned off and a great sound was turned on. The first few looks were absolutely not my taste. They reminded me a lot of the clothes you find in big department stores. But than after a rusty start, the clothes grew on me. The silhouettes and cuts became fancier and the use decent colors like cream, nude or grey added an elegant touch that fitted perfectly to the collection's theme Côte d'Azur. My favorite combination was definately the one with the satin cycle shorts (left). Eventually I'd say that Christina Duxa Couture was a nice offbeat for the FW respectively for my personal one.

.Dimitri by Dimitri Panagiotopoulos

The collection of Dimitri reminded of a stroll on a oriental bazaar: Embroidered dresses in bright colors, ethno elements and details inspired by bellydancing. The designer converted modern, very flattering cuts with his personal roots, that's what I loved about his collection. The three looks above wear absolutely stunning, especially the maxi-dress. I would wear them right away from the runway. Superb, Mr. Panagiotopoulos!

Anja Gockel

The Anja Gockel fashion show already started at 10 am so I had to get up very early, too early if you ask me. I exspected a classy and feminine collection and my suspicion was confirmed. The first looks were nearly boring. It seemed like the designer's audience were women over 30 that try to balance between job and family life. The colors and patterns were too painted in my opinion. But in the end there were also some fresher, younger looks that met my taste at least a bit. Surprisingly I aslo liked the combination of the purple pants with colorful jacket (left), which reminded a bit of a tableau. If Anja Gockel sticks more to those racy, inventive cuts and adapts patterns and colors in a less striking manner, her next collection might be a hit.

90's nightmare or hot summer trend?

2010-05-21T01:52:00.000-07:00

photo credits: style / hanneli / chicmuse /carolinesmode / streetpepper / modefeber

Reading this post, you might have some kind of "childhood-flash-back". Well, I did when I realised that cycle shorts are having a come-back this summer. I always used to wear black ones with short bright dresses when I was a little girl. The designer's interpretation doesn't have anything in common with this interpretation of the cycle shorts tough. From Prada to Wang over DKNY - all of them go for a very cool look which I totally adored on the runway but what about their everyday capability? Yes or no? I'm not sure yet but I'm definately gonna try it out. Just ordered two black pairs from H&M. I'll style them with dotted tights (as seen on Alexa) and a basic white shirt.

What about you: Are you going with the cycle shorts or filing them into the "90s nightmares"- dossier?

In case you didn't know who she's until now, I'm sure you've already seen her on jak&jil or another street style blog. The lady with the ginger hair is the style and accessory director of the US Marie Claire. She mixes new trends with her own notes and emerges in this way quite interesting and unique looks. Sometimes I like them more and sometimes less but I think that's what makes her in the end so interesting...

'cause i want it now

2010-03-27T14:22:00.000-07:00

Alexander Wang body, Jeffrey Campbell wedges, Topshop clutch, H&M skir, Elizabeth&James jacket

I think the title says everything. Nothing to add.

Spring's denim overdose

2010-03-04T12:25:00.000-08:00

Could you imagine a season without denim? I think it's impossible. Sometimes there's more and sometimes less denim, but it is (and will be probably) always there in some way though. Coming to this port's topic SS 2010 seems to be one of the seasons with an overrun of denim. After jeans chemises and jackets paired primarly with black, the designers envision a real overdose of the blue fabric: Jeans jumpers, dresses, jackets, shorts, chemises, pants, accesory.... - and all that as possible together in one outfit.

I'm not very keen on this combination since I wouldn't call myself the biggest denim fan. Apart from some exceptions I don't like this all-over look and still prefer my jeans with white and black.

A minus for Olivia

2010-02-18T11:59:00.000-08:00

Actually I'm totally into Olivia Palermo's style since she is always looking elegant but yet cool and stylish. When I saw this pic of her at NY fashion week I was a little disappointed though. This plaid shirt destroyed the entire look which would have been absolutely stunning and Olivia-like with a simple white/black shirt.

Caroline's giveaway

2010-02-16T03:56:00.000-08:00

Swedish stylist, blogger and fashionista Caroline Blomst offers you the chance to win a great outfit that includes essentiel pieces that you definately need in your closet. You can chose your favorite look from 14 combinations.

Above you can see my favorite look: H&M open-toe Heels, a studded leather jacket from Topshop, striped dress and skirt with leather details from Lindex.

I chose this look because it represents absolutely my style and weardrobe. It's a cool and casual look but yet fierce, that's why it I'd wear it for going-out as well as for school (with flat shoes). Especially the Topshop jacket made me fell in love with this look because I've been desperately seeking a similar one without succes. Besides the striped shirt is a pretty basic you're always in need of and the skirt seems ver unique with its leather look details. And the shoes...they wouldn't only look good, they would also have a meaningful employment by helping me to improve my 'walking-on-high-heels'-skills.

Another leather item

2010-02-13T11:28:00.000-08:00

I abandoned hope! Winter just won't leave Germany and I'm really startingt to get in some kind of 'snow-depression'. I just hate it and can't stand it anymore. Definately time to think of something else, so how about a little fashion prediction for spring - in case that it will arive eventually - ?

After leather jackets, skirts and pants our closets will be afflicted now by leather shorts. They were already shown at many FW '09 and repeatedly on the SS '10 runways and lookbooks.

I like them a lot but I didn't get one yet. Maybe it's because I always feel some kind of nasty if I wear leather items? Well I'm gonna stick to trying them and maybe I can even wear them with tights if the winter decides to be a little more indulgent....

Clogs = The Footwear of Spring/Summer 2010?

2010-02-02T08:13:00.000-08:00

photo credits: style.com / tfs / fashiontoast / justjared

Here we go again guys...After an eternity without having internet - well it seemed so, guess it's because I'm a junkie - here I am back again, curing a cold life from my cozy bed.

Since Chanel's and Louis Vuitton's RTW shows the footwear trend par exellence for the up-coming season is settled: Say hello to (high heeled) clogs ladies. The word 'clogs' made me think at first about the feet of Dutchwoman with blonde braids and checked skirts. Karl Lagerfeld's interpretation made me change my mind quickly. I could totally see myself wearing a dark version like Alexa did lately at Chanel's Haute Couture show. And besides the fact that they're super handy we've to admit that their sound on asphalt is enormouly charming and nostalgic...

Alexa

After ages I was strolling in the forums of tfs when I found this amazing pic of Alexa Chung that I never saw before. From the outfit to her face expression everything about this took my breath away so I just couldn't keep it back from. Might be one of the best shots somebody ever made of her.

Enjoy the week-end!

Here she goes again...

The last year we didn't hear and see much of Nicole but finally she seems to be back (in style). I think she looked always great lately and the dark hair suits her so well. Sigh, I really missed her...

I think "I die" describes best how much I'm into Whyred's spring collection. Everything from head to toe is just adorable. My favorite outfit is the one with the overknees.

Oh and no, I'm not dead, just buried by an avalanche of work....

Natalie Off Duty

2009-10-30T12:04:00.000-07:00

Today I wanna introduce you to Natalie Suarez' blog Natalie off duty which I discovered quite recently. Besides her loveliness I was fascinated by her easy but amazing style so I talked to the young lady:

1.How old are you and where are you from?
I'm 18 years old and from Los Angeles, California.

2.What's your occupation?
Model

3.Which three words describe you best?
Friendly, smart, creative

4.When did you star blogging and why did you start?
I started blogging about 2 months ago. My sister introduced me to amazing fashion blogs and I found so much inspiration. I found images I could relate to. Street Style inspires me more than any magazine editorial could.I started "Natalie Off Duty" in hopes of inspiring others as well. Having my blog is such a fun way to connect with all the people from around the world who are as interested in fashion as I am.

5.How would you describe your personal style?
I would say my personal style is unique. I have a ton of vintage pieces that are of such great quality and so different from what stores are selling now.I mix them in with designer pieces and inexpensive pieces from Zara or H&M. I like tough looking clothing, like a pair of vintage combat boots that I'll throw into a girly outfit. I just hate looking like everyone else, so wearing vintage and staying away from trends, sets my look apart from the rest.

6.What's your favorite item of the moment?
I'm in love with Alexander Wang's ankled buckle booties.

5.How much money do you spent per month for new clothes/shoes/bags?
It really depends. Some months I'll spend a few hundred dollars on clothes, while some months, I don't buy anything. Right now, I'm only buying pieces that are different from anything I already own,which isn't very much, considering I have so many clothes!

6.Where do you like to shop?
I love shopping vintage and second-hand because I always end up finding inexpensive pieces of really good quality! I'll hit up a Goodwill or Salvation Army once in a while. But I do love luxury pieces that I can get at Barneys. Big department stores like Barneys, Neimans, and Saks always draw me in, especially when they have great sales!

7.How many pairs of shoes do you own?
Hm, I don't really know. Probably like 25 really great shoes.

8.One of the current trends you would never go with/hate...
I don't think I will ever wear Harem pants. The shape just isn't very flattering haha! But some people can rock them!

9.If you could buy one item no matter how much it costs what would it be?
I would probably buy a new Bally leather jacket. Their leather is so soft and light. I have one already that is a bit old, but is still amazing! I wouldn't mind having another one, because I'd wear it all the time.

10.Who's your personal fashion icon?
I love Jane Birkin. She had fantastic personal style when she was young, and stays stylish as she ages beautifully. She makes everything look effortless and cool. I think her daughters, Lou and Charlotte, definitely got their great sense of style from her as well!

11.Heels or flats?
Heels even though I am already so tall. I love walking in them!

12.Fashion is....
Fashion is fun to play around with especially when there are so many beautiful clothes out there!

13.Tell us one of your vices.
I bite my nails. I wear nail polish whenever I'm not working to grow them out and stop biting haha!

Here comes Leigh Lezark

2009-10-27T05:39:00.000-07:00

I wanted to post some pics of Leigh so long now because besides a few exceptions I'm totally into her style and her music.

P.S. Did you hear about the Olsen's new line? Can't wait to see it.

Finally...

2009-10-14T09:42:00.000-07:00

'Coco avan Chanel' came to our cinema too. Gonna watch it tonight. I'm very excited and can't wait to see it.

Actually I was planning to do an outfit post but I'm a bit ill and look like ghost so instead I'll post these pics of Skye Stracke for the German Tush. The editorial is called 'Let Me' and I think it's brilliant apart from her face expression that appears a little obscene to me.

It's all about leopards

2009-10-03T20:35:00.000-07:00

Lately I noticed more and more boots with leopard prints. At first I was a little unsure whether they look a little trashy but this trend is really growing on me. The most spread ones are definately Ashish's platforms for Topshop. They were sold out immediately and are offered for atomic prices at ebay now. Though I've to admit that I prefer the bigger patterns like Maria's or Erin Wasson's shoes. I guess leopard prints will never get out of fashion...

Well have to get back to learning biology and maths now. Posting was just a little break to take breath. Lucky me there's only one week of school left.

P.S. Thanks for the great feedback on my interview. More blogger features are already in progress.

London FW: Christopher Bailley's guests

2009-09-23T08:28:00.000-07:00

Yesterday London's 25th FW ended with the show of Burberry Prorsum and when Christopher Bailey is calling, the stars are always in a hurry. Ok I think I'd beat them but that's not the issue right now so let's talk about their clothes. I wrote a little comment for each lady:

Emma looked just breathtaking. With every pic of her I'm loving her more and more. The dress
and the shoes (of course both from the presented collection) were made for her plus her
hair and make up was spot-on. Emma, you're my favorite!

Frida's dress was also fairly nice but a little boring. The color looked though great with her skin and her face was shiny as always. She always seems so nice and honest to me. On top she did an amazing job in 'Slumdog Millionaire'.

Alexa is one of my personal fashion icons of the 21st century but I've to admit that this trench+dark dress combination is starting to get a little unspectacular even if it looks always great. Anyway the black booties are awesome.

Agyness - I just want her to get back to her blonde pixie, it's her trademark and looked so good on her. Is it just me or did she also dress better before?! Well I think her grey jacket and the shoes are very cool but I hate the rest especially this trashy bag.

Mary-Kate - There's not much to say about her look. Actually it's nothing special but I like it anway and her Burberry boots...I want them so bad. She should do her hair more often like this it's cute.

Posh - I'm neither a lover nor a hater but she looks always the same. Of course her look is timelessly chic and classy but after seeing it in similar ways about 100 times it's starting to get annoying. And then I also wonder how she walks on these heels...

Emmy Awards 2009: Leighton beats them all

2009-09-21T07:48:00.000-07:00

hesitate ☺

skirt - Zara

Here I am again. I came back from my little trip Thursday night. I had a wonderful time visiting Bremen,Arhus (Denmark),Hamburg and Hannover. Of course I did some shopping and found many nice things especially at Primark where I've never been before. Sure the quality sucks but they have some great designs so why spent much money if you wear the clothes only for one season?!
I saw this cute polka dotted silk skirt at Zara some time ago but found 50 € too expensive because it wasn't sewed very well. Back home I kept thinking about it and then last month I found it in the sales and bought it immediately since I'm totally into polka dots unless they're styled in this kind of emo punky style.

I want you and nobody else

Aren't they to die for? I hope I'll find them when I go to Hamburg....

Jeans à la tie dye

2009-06-24T03:42:00.001-07:00

You know what? Today I wrote my last big test for this grade. I'm so glad and relieved. Finally time for something more interesting than learning.

Since the Balmain spring/summer collection bleached denim has become a big trend and is worn by many fashionistas. No matter if celeb, blogger or model - the trend is everywhere.

Rihanna - Ashley Tisdale - Fergie - Lindsay Lohan

Victoria Beckham - Erin Wasson - Dakota Fanning - Gwen Stefani

Andy - Mari - Isabelle - Mimi Jung

Lee - Camille - Rumi - Bella

Balmain - Karen Walker - Baby Phat - Ideëen

Elle - The Sartorialist - Jak&Jil

I totally loved light versions (grey and acid washed) like the ones at Balmain and would definately wear them but these flashing jeans that are just overkill? Yuk, I hate them. Plus I think that these patterns can easily fill up and make legs look kilometers wide.

So long....Have a nice week-end

"Show off your skin" - Black cut-out dresses

2009-05-31T08:17:00.001-07:00

Guys, finally summer has arrived in northern Germany too - the weather is incredible, sun and about 22°C. And now the best thing: Till Thursday there's no school. Sigh, what a great life after this period of busyness.

Just left the beach chair for a little update in fashion:
Remember Ashley Olsen's appearance at last year's MET Gala? She wore a black maxi-dress with lateral cut-outs by Diane von Fursteburg and looked simply breathtaking. Who knows maybe Ash gave the essential impulse for the come back of the 90's inspired dresses - wouldn't be all that absurd since she's an Olsen. Anway similar cut-out gowns appeared as well at many spring and fall 2009 fashion shows and have become a leading trend for the current/up-coming season. Of course the stars and starlets follow the new hype and wear black cut-out dresses in short or long shape. Miranda Kerr even chose a 20's inspired Jil Sander creation in this style for the these year's MET Gala and I think she managed beeing a good "descendant" for Ash.

What do you think about these dresses? A trend you'd go with?

Rihanna's week in fashion

2009-05-08T11:48:00.001-07:00

Last week Rihanna really attract my attention with her outfits and her new hair which I don't like at all. It started out on Monday when she wore a black puff sleeved suit by D&G at the MET Gala. Sure shoulder statements are a current trend but I think Rihanna took it too seriously and looked a little absurd in her outfit. Next day it went on even worse. What was she thinking when she put on these hooker clothes? Luckily she changed for the evening to dark perforated jeans (Current/Elliot) and an eye catching yellow, diamond-studded Marc Jacobs jacket which I really liked.
Next day she followed the pattern: In the day a trashy look à la corsage and low-slung jeans in "zombie" (believe me or not that's how J Brand called the color), in the evening elegant-looking in a white pantsuit paired with a leo print blouse and long chains. Why doesn't she stick to the "evening rules" all day long?! At least Rihanna didn't look that bad on Thursday when she left her hotel wearing a snake-skin vest by Gucci , killer metallic heels and fawn pants. Even if I think that there are much better outfits this one wasn't as bad as the hooker look from Tuesday.
A few hours later she showed up on the red carpet in all over Louis Vuitton at the DKMS 2009 Annual Gala. Her futuristic dress was very special but loveable. I think she managed wearing it pretty good.
On Friday Rihanna finished her personal "fashion week" while hiding underneath a camouflage hoodie which she paired with dark jeans and peach-colored sneakers. I don't have something against hoodies or casual looks but camouflage and these shoes? YUK!
For sure Rihanna had a exciting and eye-catching week but I'd that she really failed. She's a very pretty girl and awesome girl so why does she need to dress like this?

What do you think of Rihanna's outfits and her style in general? Amazing or just overkill?

See you

Love

Easter Vacation

2009-04-08T14:31:00.000-07:00

In about 12 hours I'll leave for Syria where I'm gonna spend the holidays plus a couple days.

I feel quite excited but the preparation was also a lot of stress and I'm not done with packing yet even if it's nearly 12 p.m.

Be good my dears. I wish you happy Easter ♥

Cheers

Mimi

P.S. I'll be back on 21st - hopefully with a few pics for you ☺

Snakeskin Looks

2009-03-29T08:11:00.000-07:00

The last week was final one in school before easter vacation. Tomorrow I'll start my week-long internship at our local newspaper. I'm totally excited but also a little afraid but until now I heard only good things from the students who were there before. Well, let's just wait and see ☺
Lately I didn't post because I had to concentrate on school since there were thousands of projects, tests etc.

Inspired by the current animal print trend and my vintage bag which (pic above) today's topic is the snakeskin look which was also shown on the runway besides the famous leo print. It can look very classy and noble but also trashy and cheap.

Rodarte Fall 2009 RTW

Prada Spring 2009 RTW

Miu Miu Spring 2009 RTW

Louis Vuitton and Hèrmes Spring 2009 RTW

For me the 'natural' snakeskin look is the best. I think if you combine it with simple colors like black or cream you can't go wrong. Yet I didn't wear my bag but maybe I'll stick to it in the future and take Natasha Poly, Miranda Kerr and Snejana Onopka as an example.

What do you think about snakeskin? Would you wear it?

Have a nice rest sunday

Mimi ♥

Would you mind giving me those bags?

2009-03-23T10:56:00.000-07:00

Aren't these bags to die for?I love especially the one Ashley is carrying.

P.S. I'm still alive and will entirely be back soon.
Please don't mind me.

Milan Fashion Week Fall 2009

2009-03-01T03:30:00.001-08:00

After missing NY and London Fall 2009 Fashion Week completely, I follow Milan from the beginning to the end. So here are most of the designers who presented their collections so far. All in all I've to say that there were some stunning looks shown. Chosing a favorite is always hard because there are so so many great ones so actually there isn't even one. Emilio Pucci was great, likewise Gucci, C'N'C, Alberta Ferretti, Etro, Marni, Emporio Armani, Just Cavalli, Moschino C&C, Blumarine, Alessandro Dell'Acqua, D&G.... You see I'm bad in makign decisions. Something I know: Velvet, brocade, many many colors (esp. gold plus blue nuances) and africa prints are definately coming.

Enjoy ☺

I know lately I haven't been around very often but as I already told at the moment it feels like time is running away. I'm so tired of school and all the learning. Can't wait for vacation.
Hopefully I can manage posting some personal looks soon. I've tons of things I wanna show you.

Take care

Camilla (la) Belle

2009-02-07T03:31:00.000-08:00

There's a new girl in Hollywood: Camilla Belle. The 22-year-old actress is currently promoting her new film 'Push' and covers the february issue of Nylon . At the latest everybody knows her since it came out that she's the new girlfriend of Joe Jonas. (- poor Taylor☺-)

I haven't seen any films of her yet but I noticed her way back because of her great looks. Camilla's style is very elegant, classy and feminine but not boring or old-fashioned. I'd say it's rather trendy even if I don't like everything she wears.
I was totally amazed when I saw her in this short Alexander McQueen dress a couple days ago. She looked breathtaking.

Another thing I always notice on Camilla is her face: I can't say wheter it's pretty or not but it has something special and unique that makes you wanna look at her again and again....

What do you think of Camilla Belle and her style?

I'm off for sleeping

Good night

DIY - studded vest

2009-02-05T06:23:00.000-08:00

Salut to everyone.Comment ca va? I hope you are all doing well. Me personally I want finally spring. I just can't stand winter (anymore). When I woke up this morning our garden was all over white. Luckily the snow is gone by now but it's still f*cking cold outside.

Well now to more pleasing stuff. My latest DIY-project was inspired by all the great gold studded things that were loitering around lately. I couldn't find anything I liked so I ordered a few Hotfix studs on ebay, ironed them on this little black vest (H&M Divided) et voilà j'était fini...

Do you like it?

See you soon!

Paris Spring 2009 Couture

2009-01-30T06:46:00.000-08:00

Here's a litle roundup of Paris Fashion Week.I thought it would be best to write a little statement to every collection.Enjoy!

Stéphane Rolland:I like the straightness and purism of this collection but there's is missing something that gives this 'WOW'-effect.

Valentino:Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli,the new designers of Valentino show that they know what Haute Couture means.The collection is breathtaking and full of elegance. I love this cute red dress and the white ruffled coat. Oh how great would it be to own them?!

Martin Margiela Artisinal:Martin Margiela's style is always a bit strange to me but I like the Couture collection more than the RTW one. Nude bodies are a great statement. I wouldn't buy it but the colorful fringe dress would make a perfect eyecatcher plus it looks funky.

Marco de Vincenzo:It must has been horrible for the models to walk on these murder heels,even if they totally rock.The outfits are very clean and unspectacular but I am a fan of the cutouts.The black dress is so simple but good-looking. Reminds me to the one Ashley Olsen wore once.

Jean Paul Gaultier:Gaultier's collection is very artistic and I enjoyed watching it but I am not thrilled.

Givenchy:Ahh again such a great collection. There are tons of great stuff and I heart how they decorated the catwalk with blossoms.Wonderful!

Felipe Oliveira Baptista:What I really like on this collection are the various leggings and the booties. The black leggings with the sheer cutouts please me a lot.Smells like DYI huh?

Elie Saab:Elie Saab Couture dresses are always a dream. This year his couture collection takes me to heaven again, especially the 2nd dress. The bold shoes are a perfect change in style and so adorable.
Christian Lacroix:A great mix between grown-up and frisky looks.The dotted coat is too cute and this round gold bag super fly.

Christian Dior:Kind of lady chic style anyway Galliano did in my opinion a good job. The white dress on the right is a favorite and the shoes really caught my eyes.

Chanel:As always really classy and damn good.The two first looks from the left were faultless. Chapo karl!

Cathy Pill:By chosing a clean backround the designer made a good job otherwise these magical dresses wouldn't have shown their full advantage and prettiness.

Avalon Vega:The sheer booties are definately a hit but all in all I don't like the collection. It reminds me to candy floss.

Armani Privé:Armani seems quite adrogynous to me and I'm unsure wheter I like the collection or not. Yet I think the yellow jacket over the black dress is a great contrast. Furthermore I loved this special formed dress. I used to have a similar one for my barbie when I was younger.
Anne Valérie Hash:Is there somebody who's getting married soon? Then chose this white dress.I can visually imagine a bride wearing it at her secret garden wedding, awww...

Alexis Mabille: Feminine, cute, elegant - I think these adjectives describe Mabille's collection best. It wasn't my favorite but I definately liked it and would wear the clothes.

Alexander Vauthier:Sharp shoulders and statement collars in black - that's how Vauthier sees us in spring. Except the shoulder pads not bad thinking at all. Between the footwear (1st/last) is to die for.

Well then I told you what I think. It's your turn: Which collections did you like and which not? Was Paris Couture 2009 a miss or rather a miss?

See you soon

SAG Awards 2009

2009-01-26T09:35:00.000-08:00

Teri Hatcher - Rosario Dawson - Taraji P. Henson - Anne Hathaway
Angelina Jolie - Mindy Kaling - Kate Winslet - Freida Pinto
Claire Danes - Eva Longoria - Marisa Tomei

America Ferrera - Katie Holmes - Marcia Cross - Tina Fey
Christina Applegate - Jenna Fischer - Evan Rachel Wood - Emily Blunt

What? 15th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards
When? Saturday, 25th January 2009
Where? Shrine Auditorium L.A.
Who? Stars and starlets from the showbiz'

After clearing the main facts of the SAG Awards above now to the most interesting questions: Who was best dressed and who worst? If there was an award for 'Best Look' I'd split it in two: Anne Hathaway would get one half for making a discreet but chic statement in her white Azzaro gown and Freida Pinto the other one. No wonder that I loved her angelic dress which looked breathtaking to her dark teint -it's Marchesa! Katie Holmes would get definately the one for worst dressed of the entire evening. Besides the aweful color of her Jil Sander dress it looked fairly deformed and boring on her. Her look was absolutely unfitting for the occasion in my opinion. Did she wear even a bra? Doesn't seem so.
What do you think of Katie's dress and the looks in general? Any favorites?

Awaiting your comments.

So long

Mimi

Plaid Outerwear

2009-01-09T13:04:00.000-08:00

1.) How the celebs wore it:

2.) How it was presented at the Fall '08 RTW shows:
Plaid is not really something new but beside the classy lumberjack chemises there's also great outerwear in various colors and shapes. At the Fall 2008 RTW Shows many designers showed how interesting a coat or jacket with a plaid pattern could be.

Since I saw Alexa Chung wearing a tartan coat a few months ago I want one like hers. Unexpectedly I spotted a similar one like Alexa's at Zara when I visited my sister last time in Hannover. It was even on sale so I was very glad but when I tried it on it was ( of course) too big and strangely cut.

I think plaid coats make an awesome alternative to unicolored ones if they aren't that bright (as seen on Rihanna). Anyway I prefer a simple grey or black coat because it goes with everything and looks always good.

Now here's the turn: I saw another one which would be perfect for the transition period. I'm still thinking about getting it. Actually it's a bit too big but it has anyway a very wide cut. Still unsure and hope it will be on sale soon since this would make my decision a lot easier ☺.
Here in Germany you can't have enough coats. Last week we had snow and -8°C...!

Should I get it? And what do you think in general about plaid coats?

P.S. Thanks for your advices about getting the patent shopper or not. I did not - even if I love it and still think about it - because it was so huge that it looked already absurd. That's the con of pics: You can never say how big the bag really is in reality!

Have a nice weekend

xoxo

Final Countdown

2008-12-31T04:28:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year!

May all your wishes come true.

Thanks for such a nice year in blogging.

I know I haven't been a good blogger.

Enjoy the evening,

Love

Mimi

P.S. Actually it was my plan to post a few pics of my outfits today but I'm ill. Please excuse me for the last time this year. Instead I chose these pics that were taken vor "V"-Magazin that I totally love.

Confessions of a Shopaholic

2008-12-26T11:19:00.000-08:00

Here I am again crammed with red cabbage,turkey and crème caramel. Hopefully all of you had great holidays and got tons of nice presents. Besides many "smaller" stuff (H&M giftcard, money, bag etc.) Santa brought me a huge super chic notebook that seems to be even bigger than me. All in all Christmas eve was a bit strange this year since I wasn't in the mood at all, very calm but anyway enjoyable. I think Silent Night would be the perfect title for it ☺

What about you?How did you spent the holidays and what did you get?

In September I purchased three books of the series Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella at a garage sale. I just couldn't stop, because the books were too good and Becky Bloomwood (the main character) so amusing. Oh I love her!

You can't imagine how thrilled I was when I found out about the film. After watching the trailer and seeing these snaps I expect a funny, stylish film à la SATC. Anway I'm unsure if it's going to be good as the books but hope rests till the end....

Here's the trailer:

Enjoy the last holiday

Regards

Winterize your Jeans Shorts

2008-12-19T12:58:00.001-08:00

Alexander Wang Fall 2008 RTW

Rumi,Wendy,Andy,Gala,Almah

Keira Knightley,Lilly Allen,Kate Moss,Katie Holmes

So here I am again - finally on holiday! Only 2 days to Christmas eve left and I haven't finished all my presents yet. Hopefully I'll today....

Wearing jeans shorts and tights underneath is currently loitering around. Whether at the Alexander Wang's Fall 2008 show, on the bloggers or the celebs everybody winterizes his jeans shorts. I liked it the most on Gala since she has wonderful legs and styled it perfectly. The variant with the wider shorts as seen at Alexander Wang (1st pic) also pleased me a lot.

Actually I'm (most times) totally into the tights+shorts combination but on me it looks aweful and I feel very uncomfy. I tried it often but the result never had been very satisfying. Well I guess I'll better leave this trend to the others...

What's your opinion?Hate it or love it, leave it or take it?

Happy "Christmas Countdown"

Love

Mimi

P.S. Sorry for the chaotic layout but my blogger is spinning!

Tights white as snow

2008-12-11T05:09:00.000-08:00

I remember wearing white tights when I was younger. For the day I wore wool ones, for grave occasions silk ones. I guess white tights never got out of fashion but right now they're in again. No matter if on the streets, the catwalks of or at 'Gossip Girl' - the snowy tights are everywhere in various forms. As long as it's not this jabbing white I like nearly all especially the ones with a texture. The mean thing about these tights is the fact that they make your legs sometimes look awefully fat. Plus on some people they have this sanitary-stockings-effect (urrrgh). I hope I'm not one of these since I already spotted a few at H&M.

What are you thinking about the this look?Wearble or just aweful?

P.S. Only 13 days for christmas eve left and I haven't bought any presents yet.

On the streets:

On Gossip Girl:

On the runway:

Luisa Beccaria Fall 2008 RTW

Eley Kishimoto Fall 2008 RTW

Chanel Spring 2008 Couture

Alexander McQueen Fall 2008 RTW

Only 13 days for christmas eve left and I haven't bought any presents yet....

Chanel Pre-Fall 2009

2008-12-07T12:15:00.000-08:00

Love it or hate it?
That's the question I asked myself when I start watching Chanel's Pre-Fall 2009 collection yesterday. I guess I'm something between and it's kind of love-hate relation. All in all Karl Lagerfeld didn't thrill me with his russian inspired look. 90% of the shown looks were a way too opulent for me personally, but anyway a few items really caught my eye and I'm sure they could make a fabolous outfit if styled a little more distreet. I totally fell in love with the classy black white dress which presents absolutely Chanel. 2nd thing I adored were the golden tights. I'm definately gonna look for a cheaper version.

Sure there were a few very Chanel-alike clothes however everything reminded me to Christian Lacroix. My conclusion: Not the best show but even though not aweful, but how could Chanel be aweful?!

Tell me your opinion ☺

Mimi

Voilà un général

2008-12-01T04:58:00.001-08:00

(click to enlarge)

During New York and Paris Fashion Week for spring/summer 2009's fashion Balmain and 3.1 Phillip Lim took us on a little journey through time by presenting monarchy-inspired military-jackets and vests. I like these a lot and the simple way both designers styled them is genius.

Mischa Barton didn't follow this examples: She combined her jacket at a red-carpet event with a golden headband and a fringe bag. Maybe she thought it would be nice to wear more than one trend all at once but honestly this is a little too much. Topmodel and fashionista Erin Wasson in contrast did an awesome job by wearing a short military-bolero with latex leggings in all over black. Chapeau!

Let's hope a Balmain one will fall from the sky otherwise I'm on the prowl ☺

Any tipps where I could find a cheap one?I think vintage is the best way.

Well then I'm off to - tatatatatata - LEARN!

A bientôt mes chères

4 x inspiration

2008-11-25T10:55:00.000-08:00

Gala Gonzales is one of my favorite fashion bloggers and a very cute young lady.I love her style and the way she pulls of current trends with her own note. A couple weeks ago she posted this breathtaking outfit.For me personally from head to toe a perfect outfit.

Alexa Chung is a real fashion icon.I adore her easy but stylish look and always feel very inspired by her.Today I found this pic of her at tfs and was thrilled:That oversized sweater dress is perfect for the current season and the colors match perfect together plus they make it interesting. The zipper detail adds a cool touch.

Alexander Wang's Autumn 2008 collection was one of the most populars and in my opinion it's absolutely true.The looks always inspire me for my daily outfits.

It has been a couple months since I found this picture on another blog. I loved his model's entire look from the first moment. Especially the extravagant hat took my eye and I thought it's very easy to copy.Well then it's my following DIY-project and on top of my to-do-list.
The "simple" Prada bag is gorgeous.

GLAMOUR "Women of the Year" Award 2008

2008-11-12T05:20:00.000-08:00

Kate Bosworth.Emma Hemming.Debra Messing.Taylor Swift.

Natalie Portman.Tinsley Mortimer.America Ferrera.Jane Krakowski

Nicole Kidman.Fergi.Sarah Michelle Gellar.Selita Ebanks.

On Monday night it was time to nominate the GLAMOUR "women of the year" 2008 at Carnegie Hall in NYC. Apart the hype on Obama's election the politic ladies Condoleezza Rice and Hilary Clinton wear honored with an award, likewise Nicole Kidman, Tyra Banks, Kara Walker and Maureen Chiquet. Except for a few 'rebels' nearly everyone showed up in a black or white dress. My clear favorite was definately Kate Bosworth's classy Chanel dress, followed by Nicole Kidman's embroidered L'Wren Scott robe.

What do you think about the looks? Agreed with my choice of favorites?

P.S. I'm totally sorry for not writing anything but as I already told you I took part in a musical at our school. Last night it was preview. Luckily everything went well and I totally enjoyed it.
Tonight the show goes on but before I'm going to the city, because I'm totally in need of something new. Please don't mind me.

Street Style Compensation

2008-11-04T10:52:00.000-08:00

Hey guys,
I'm totally sorry for not posting anything the last couple days but school really took my last nerve and there wasn't time for anything else. After I finished my last class exercise for this week today I went to the cinema to watch High School Musical 3. All in all the film wasn't bad but didn't thrill me. Actually my plan was it to take some pics of what I wore but I had no time so I thought maybe I should post a little street style inspiration which's always good.

I wish I could keep on writing but unfortunately I've to change a dress for drama class. Guess I won't be posting much the coming days because everyday there are rehersals from 8.30 till night. Well monday it's preview time...

Please excuse me and rock the fashion world without me for a while

Love
Mimi

60s Icon Twiggy

2008-10-30T07:59:00.000-07:00

Aloha everyone. Sorry for not posting the last days but school just started again and there's was aweful lot to do and over all learn. Fortunately it's friday and I can finally start over with a new post. The 60s fashion icon and topmodel Twiggy alias. Lesley Hornby has been one of my lovies for a couple years now so it's definately high time to write about her.

In 1966 she was discovered. Because of her tiny image (she weight only 90lbs/41kg) the 16 year old kept her childhood nickname Twiggy and became The Face of '66. One year later she arrived in New York and turned the whole fashion scene upside down. Even if no one believed, she became the leading supermodel, later also an actress and singer.

With her short adrogynous pixie hair-cut, the fake XXL-eyelashes, stylish outfits and of course unhealthy low weight she created a complete new look and became a style icon who was copied by millions of teens.

Today the british is 59 years old and has a few public appearances, f.e. in the America's Next Topmodel-jury.

For me Twiggy is a formative character for the world wide fashion. I love her dramatic eye make-up and short dresses. Twiggy was an idol for many young girls and so unfortunately her skinny shape.

What's your opinion on Twiggy? Is she a real style icon?

P.S. It was quite hard to chose only a few pics because there were so awesome ones.

Have a nice week-end and to some of you HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Love

Mimi

The Fur-Nation

2008-10-26T08:46:00.000-07:00

Fur had been really out of fashion. Fashionistas like Kate Moss, Nicole Richie and the Olsens were often spotted wearing fury stuff recently but also in the past. Well maybe fur never had been out but right now it's booming.

Doesn't sound bad at all but the mean thing about this trend is that many of these ladies wear real fur and not faked alternatives.

Vero Moda fake fur vest with removable hood (old school). Vintage kids wear plush leo jacket.

Since I'm against killing animals for the purpose of fashion you can guess easily that the vest and jacket I'm wearing in the pics above are not real fur. I got the vest a couple years ago for christmas. It's very warm and cozy but the problem is I'm always feeling kind of strange in it so I didn't wear it often. The black white wanna-be leo jacket next-door is vintage kids wear. I got it last month at a garage sale for only 2€. Just like about the vest I'm also undecided about it and often think it looks a bit trashy. I could see myself wearing the vest in a bohemian way with a bright dress and my Minnetonkas but the leo one... Any idea? Would be very helpful.

And besides what do you think about fur? Is real fur ok or a no-go?

Tell me!

kisses&hugs

From Hamburg to the World - New Topmodel Toni Garrn

2008-10-21T08:33:00.000-07:00

Once upon a time there was a 16 year old blonde girl living in Hamburg. In the year 2006, during the World Cup she went to a fan event at the Alster. Suddenly a woman sprang towards her and asked her if she wanted to be a model. The girl said yes. From this day forth she was photographed for many famous fashion mags like Vogue and V-Magazine, presented the latest collections of big designers on the runways of the whole world and became after Natalie Vodianova the new face of Calvin Klein. The girl was so happy and thankful and lived happily ever after in the glamorous world of fashion....

This little story isn't a fairy tale or something, it's a real story that happened to the new topmodel Toni Garrn. A dream huh? Only sweet 17 and already featured in adds for Calvin Klein and Jill Stuart that's just unbelieveable. Her real name is Antonia and she's 1,78 m high.

To me it seemed like the beauty was on nearly every runway at the recent Fashion Weeks.I like her a lot because of naturalness and fresh,young face. Plus her body's in real good shape, she's not too skinny but not too curvy. This girl had a lot of luck but in my opinion she deserves it.

What's your opinion on her?Could she be tomorrow's topmodel?

P.S. I was thrilled by all the comments on my previous post.
Thanks so much to all of you.You're so sweet and intent.

Love

As I already mentioned in my previous post I finally found a cheap pair of laced boots at Reno.Actually my momy was looking for shoes but then - while waiting for her - I found them coincidental standing in a corner.Since they were the best pair I ever saw after I've been looking for boots in many many stores I bought them 'cause they were only 30€.And now I'm quite satisfied with them though I'm not so much into the part of the boots where the material is lighter.Well better than nothing right?!

Solo chain.Eiffel Tower was a key fob from a hawker in Paris

A couple days ago I saw a silver necklace with a big Eiffel Tower pendant and just adored it. Suddenly I had the idea to take an old Eiffel Tower key fob my sister brought me from Paris couple years ago as a souvenir, bent the bail and then stick it into an old very expensive chain my dad bought me in denmark.Et voilà une chaîne avec une petite tour d'Eiffel!

Well then I'm leaving tomorrow I'm going to the flew market in the early morning.Hopefully I'll find something interesting.

Of course I'll let you know about my booties ☺

So long...

Another British Fashionista:Fearne Cotton

2008-10-15T02:07:00.000-07:00

After Kate Moss, Agyness Deyn, Daisy Lowe, Peaches and Pixie Geldof here's another fashion-treat from the UK: British TV and radio presenter Fearne Cotton.

Through the Kid's TV show Finger Tips I've been acquinted with the 27 year old since I was 9. I always liked her a lot and looked upon on her as a very cool chick. Today I admire her good occurrence and mostly cool plus trendy style. She follows the latest trends (f.e. lace) and plays with many colors but soever adds a personal touch. For me Fearne Cotton is definately part of the 'British Fashion League'. What do you think?Is Fearne able to take it on with the other UK fashionistas?

P.S. Finally I found a pair of nice laced boots.I'll show them to you in my next post ☺

Excited about your comments.

The autumn leaves of red and gold

2008-10-13T04:50:00.000-07:00

beanie:H&M,coat:H&M,treggings:Pieces,boots:Minnetonka (via Ebay)

Wouhuuuu, since friday 12.10 am I'm officialy on vacation.Two weeks no school doesn't sound bad at all, right? I can tell you autumn has definately arrived over here and it feels like everyday is getting a bit colder. On saturday I went shopping in Hamburg with Lara,my sister and her friends.Though I didn't find everything I wanted all in all it was a quite succesful and over all amusing offbeat to my holidays.Pics of my new stuff will follow in the up coming days. The beanie and treggings I'm wearing in the pics are just a little foretaste.Today I had nothing to do so I went outside and took a few pics.Maybe not the best ones but better than nothing.

Well then gotta clean up my room now.

Vanessa Bruno The pure looks are great and I love the colors she chose for the collection. On top great footwear.
Sharon Wachob I wasn't amazed but a few looks were definately ok.
Tao These silver shoes are so strange!Absolutely not my favorite though I like the last outfit is quite nice.
Tsumori Chisato Such a bright and wonderfull collection.The bohemian touch is absolutely my taste.Awesome!
Véronique Leroy The high wedge footwear is very cool.I like the 2nd all over black look but the rest was not that good.
Zucca The volants gave the dresses a very frsiky style what I liked a lot.The last look is adorable and the blue shoes in the first super cute.
Cher Michel Klein Well mix between cool looks and sweet dresses.2nd and 3rd outfit are to die for plus the whole footwear.
Bless Too bulky cuts for me personal.Just liked the grey dress in the 2nd pic.
Kenzo Awww so beautiful.Loved everything.Kenzo=Hit!
Talbot Runhof As expected very elegant dresses.The tunic in the 2nd pic is lovely. I also liked the way they played with details like feathers and metallic embrodery but wasn't pleased.
Paul&Joe Airy,casual wear.Maybe simple but nice.
Lanvin I always like Lanvin a lot and can say that Mr.Elbaz did an awesome job again.

Miu Miu Honestly,I was disappointed.The red skirt outfit is very cute but nothing really stunned me.
Louis Viutton Excellent collection.So many great looks.I want the entire 3rd outfit Amanda Laine wore.
Limi Feu This collection seemed so strange to me.I hated the XXXXL-clothes the models wore (not pictured).At least I'd call the first two looks ok ☺.

I'm sure everybody knows this situation:You're watching a show on TV and then just in the most exciting moment the show is over or commercials start. I'm feeling similar about the end of the s/s 2009 Fashion Week in Paris. At the beginning I disliked a lot of the shows but now they pleased more and more. Sure it's a great pity but fortunately FW is always returning. Enough ululation let's start dishing about the recent shows and the earlier ones I missed. You can read above my idea of every shows and maybe tell who's my favorite. I can't say surely because I liked too many collections.
Who's your favorite? And what do you think in general about these years FW for s/s '09? Which one was your favorite Fashion Week?

Well then I'm heading to drama class and afterwards to a VIP-shopping evening at Cubus.

P.S. Please excuse me for not posting the last days or answering the comments but there were a lot of things on my mind. I'll try to catch it answering.

Au revoir

Paris Fashion Week 4em Partie

2008-10-05T01:16:00.000-07:00

Martin Grant Ok but not grandiouse.The last dress is pretty anyway.
Wunderkind I liked a few items but usually Wunderkind convices me much more.

Collette Dinnigan Breathtaking collection and definately on my 'A-List'.All of these outfits are simply gorgeous and something I want for my s/s 09 closet ☺.A pity I forgot to include a pic of these amazing lace shoes.
Chloé I like Chloé always a lot but this collection was not my favorite.For sure some outfits were great and I loved the bow details on nearly every outfit.
Hermès Seems like Jean Paul Gaultier watched many westerns lately (too many?).Anyway some looks were pretty nice.
John Galliano Yay for Monsieur Galliano.C'est très bien!I loved a lot of these and the last 3 dresses are just a dream I wanna have.Over all the footwear was so cool.
Elie Saab Elie Elie you always amaze me with your dresses and make me wanna sneak into your atelier and steal them all.
Rue du Mail The shorts in the 2nd outfit are great but otherwise I'm not the biggest fan of this collection.
Valentino This is what I call 'WOW'....I want the 2nd dress!!!
Chanel Like Coco Chanel herself always classic,chic and never out of fashion - nothing to add.
Alexander McQueen A couple nice and very glamorous looks but nothing special.
agnès b.The leather treggings and red tights rock.The 2nd look is so romanticly perfect but even though all in all not my personal hit.
Jean-Charles de Castelbajac Such a happy and bright collection. I loved a lot of these items and would wear them in a less freaky way. Mickey Mouse always catches me...
Requiem Fantastic collection with so so so many cute and chic but not too florid dresses I would buy if I had the money ☺

Slowly we are sliding into the end of Paris Fashion Week. What a pity 'cause I like the collections more and more every following day. I decided to use my 'new system' again and write a little and sometimes sassy comment to every single show. Today it's also hard to me who's my current favorite. Maybe Requiem? Collette Dinnigan? Valentino? Jean-Charles de Castelbajac? Or however Galliano? No comment on this but these 5 desginers are definately on my top list in mind. I guess I gotta go sleeping right now because there school tomorrow.

Take care

Paris Fashion Week 3em Partie

2008-10-03T09:58:00.000-07:00

Giambattista Valli Very elegant and precious.I liked the comeback of the petticoat a lot but the creamy lace dress is my real obession. Haider Ackermann Seemed kind of boring to me. Jasmine Di Milo Gorgeous!I want all of these and overall the shiny leggings and the jodhpur pants.
Victor&Rolf Not the 'Oh-my-gosh'-effect but anyway ok. I liked the tights, the print shirt and the entire 2nd outfit.
Yves Saint Laurent So timelessly elegant.The white dress is a dream and the shoes genius!
Leonard I liked some of these colorful hippie dresses but anyway it didn't flash me. Sophia Kokosalaki Not too special but anyway great.The shoes are to die for.Fell in love with the black romper and the dress next-door is not that bad too. Sonia Rykiel Seemed like the show was a big and funny party.Awesome, multifaceted collection. Costume National Not my favorite but anyway I liked a few looks (for example this white dress). Karl Lagerfeld Typical and of course I liked that but where was the 'WOW'-effect Karl?!
Isabel Marant Haachh..Isabel Marant,this collection is a dream and I want everything!
Hussein Chalayan Though a few dresses are very pretty not exactly my taste. Lutz Not my hit. Givenchy Très cool.The hair-bows looked so lovely and were a great contrast to these excellent outfits.Even if it's not so special I want that white dress with the ballon sleeves.
Issey Miyake The boots are quite nice but otherwise I wasn't impressed. Marithe + Francois Girbaud At the beginning I though 'Oh no' but then it was ok,just casual.These grey pants with the pink ribbons are so special and nice even if I'm undecided if I'd buy them.
Veronique Branquinho A few looks were ok but nothing dazzling. Jean Paul Gaultier Hm..ok but I expected more.However I'd kill for this floral dress in the last pic ☺. Christian Lacroix Not bad at all and a few nice pieces but nothing stunning. Bernard Willhelm The red and plaid dress are great but all in all none good. Comme des Garçons Beautiful disaster. Gaspard Yurkievich So nice.These headbands really got on my radar. Junya Watanabe Too much greenie but I'd wear such a short colorful dress. Barbara Bui Plain but full of style and something I'd wear. Ann Demeulemeester I need these shoes! Loewe Seems like someone saved the money for the models ☺ Just kidding!The classy style amazed me.I loved the XXL anchors necklaces and the belts. Emanuel Ungaro Chapeau!I'm sure every woman wants such a dress for summer.The idea with the hat as a casual break is super. Stella McCartney Miss McCartney definately scored with her pure looks.The creamy transparent dress is so nice and the one with the black art is perfect for everyday. Akris Yay for Akris!I adore the watercolor look for the last dress it's so creative.The sequined green dress and the shoes in general pleased me also a lot. Cacharel Surely one of my favorites.I can already imagine these dresses in my closet. Dries Van Noten Divine!Breathtaking!Adorable!Stunning! Celine All in all I liked it though it wasn't very special. This blue coat is my personal favorite. Andrew Gn Aww..these dresses are wonderfull.

Bonsoir mes chères.Voilà la troisième partie de Paris FW....As always not farther than this with my french skills. The last week it was fairly hard for me to take time for blogging and Paris Fashion Week.Luckily it's a holiday so there's was no school and I could recover myself from all the learning. I can't say anthing about how the tests went because I'm so undecided. Since yesterday evening I've been catching all the shows I missed and preparing this post. But I can say the long work was definately worth it. I guess I liked more than 50% of the collections so much that it would take several hours to mention them all. Instead I had the idea to write a short comment to every show under the according collage as you maybe already noticed. Do you have a definate favorite or feeling like me?

Mille Bises,
Mimi

Salut mes amis.Comment ça va?J'espère que tout est bien!I guess now it's time to change to english before I embarrass myself.This morning I woke up by the loud rain and it didn't change the entire day.Bad weather means beeing in a bad mood for me.Yesterday finally my Minnetonkas arrived and I was so happy that I wore them all day long at home.They are definately not the best boots for rainy days so I decided to spare them.Hopefully tomorrow it will be much better.I wish I could say at least Paris FW could cheer me up but the shows did not at all.I'm fairly disappointed so there's no real favorite.Antonio Berardi and Christian Dior just scrape through. Maison Martin Margiela just shocked me.I was so scared by some of the looks that I felt like I was in a nightmare. Vivienne Westwood is always a bit too special and freaky for me but today there were at least two nice dresses I'd wear.
Just me or were you guys disappointed as well?
I'm off to learn for a english class test.Please don't mind me if I won't post anything tomorrow because next day there's a math test.I hope you wish me luck for both because last time in latin it helped me a lot:I got a 1 (maybe better known as an 'A' ☺).

Thanks for this again ♥.
Catch you in a few day hopefully in a better mood, something new and better from Paris.

Keep your eyes open Queen B. here comes Leighton Meester

2008-09-25T12:00:00.000-07:00

Wakey Wakey fashionistas not Gossip Girl but Mimi here.I'm so so sorry about my long absence but my head was full of stuff I had to do (esp. for school).Now that I'm here totally healthy here's finally my post on my current darling Leighton Meester that I already wanted to do a couple weeks ago.On one side fortunate that I didn't have enough time or a few of her recent outfits wouldn't be featured.Since Gossip Girl everyone knows Leighton even if maybe just as Blair "Queen B." Waldorf.Her bitchy character in the show which is my favorite one is always super dressed.Though the 22 year old actress doesn't take 2nd place behind Queen B.Especially at public appearances Leighton shows are best and stylish sides.
I just can't get enough of here.What about you?How do you feel about her look?

I wish I could say we'll see us soon but I can't promis.Tonight I'm going to the opera - it's my first time so I'm fairly excited - to watch Mozart's "Don Giovanni'.Hopefully it will be not boring and my ears will stay hale. I'll spend my saturday in school because of a musical rehersal not very glad about that but most time we've a lot of fun.
Now I'm off because I still have no idea what to wear.Something classy but not too much.
Hm...maybe I'm gonna take a pic of the outfit I chose at the end.

London FW Part V - Teen Vogue YH Party 2008

2008-09-20T06:32:00.000-07:00

Modernist Osman Yousefzada Aminaka Wilmont Ashish Bora Aksu Duro Olowu Josh Goot

All good things come to an end and so did London FW 2008 yesterday - unfortunately. Anyway I want to make a befitting closing so here I go with my 5th and last post about our british fashion friends. Espect Osman Yousefzada I liked all collections anyway I've a favorite and today it was and is definately the S/S collection of Ashish.I enjoyed all the outfits and the well mix between casual looks for everyday and glamorous dresses for the night was perfect. The shirt with the playing card theme was my absolute favorite I truelly fell in love with it.
Now tell me who was your favorite and what do you think of London Fashion Week all in all?

So long London... _______________________________________________________________
But before I leave a little sneak into last night's 6th annual Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party in L.A. Teen stars and starlets like Frances Cobain, Vanessa Hudgens, the Willis sisters, Selena Gomez and many more attended the debut of Luella's Spring 2009 collection on the west coast. The shoes of Miss Cobain, Vanessa and Emma..wow!I adored them. But more important than what they wore below is the question who had the best complete look? For me definately the actress Victoria Justice (next to Bar Rafaeli) with her black boots, cute white dress and moto leather jacket as a cool break.Who's your favorite?

Now I'm going to bed.Today I had to catch up all the homeworks I missed over the week and tomorrow it's time to learn latin!

Salut mes amis.Voilà, la 4em partie de Londres Fashion Week.Enough french for today but honestly I missed school a bit in the last few day so I had to refresh brain with a little frensh lesson.I just came back from the doctor after my mom took me there because my body temperature was something between 34°C though I felt - and still do -very fine.He didn't find anything special but tomorrow I've to stay in bed.I'm so mad because I wanted to go to the cinema with Lara to watch finally 'Factory Girl' but this idea is done now.Well can't change this what a pity.To cheer myself a bit up here a daily review on the yesterday's shows.Puuhh yesterday it was very easy to chose my favorite but today it's a little harder.I guess Fashion Fringe warmed me the most.Why?It was so multifaceted and there were a lot of pieces I wanted especially these with the colorful blocked stripes.Second 'winner' for me is Issa I feel in love with that white lace dress it's so cute.The jeans in the 2nd pic of Meeadham Kirchhoff also got on my radar and inspired my 'must-have'-notice.So long from Londres...

...and now to something not that amusing for me. When I saw this caption a couple days ago I was shocked. Nicole and Joel the '#1 family' standing in front of the break up?Oh I just hope that's not true because it would make me very said since I like Nicole a lot. Bad girl Mischa!

Ok now I'm gonna drink a coup of tee see you at the latest tomorrow evening

Edit:

My dearest readers sorry for not writing and completing this post but yesterday I felt too powerless to continue watching fashion shows.Just for the report:I'm still sick and think I got also kind of 'sitting-at-home-and-don't-do-anything'-depression.Well then week-end is coming so hopefully I'll be recovered tomorrow.And now I'll catch up dishing on LFW.Maybe you already noticed that I added two more shows of the previous day: Richard Nicoll and Roksanda Ilincic.Before I tell who was my favorite here a personal letter to my friend Henry Holland:

Dear Henry,

I won't say your collection was aweful but I really missed that 'WOW'-effect on my face and the ecstasy.Where was it?!I hope you won't mind my little critic.Would be great if you could send me the romper Chanel wears in the 1st pic.

Thanks your little fan Mimi.

Ok now back to business.My favorite yesterday was definately Mulberry.The classy but urban casual style of the collection was exactly my taste.Basso & Brooke also did a great job with their colorful dresses which improved my mood a lot by watching.The shirt dress Armand Basi One showed (3rd pic) also pleased me a lot and I'm definately gonna watch out for something similar.

Guess we will hear from each other later.The 4th part of LFW is already in the starting blocks and with it a rumor that shocked me so much that I totally forgot to write about it.

Take care that you don't get sick!

a million hugs

London FW Part II

2008-09-17T08:45:00.000-07:00

Jaeger London Louise Goldin Adidas by Stella McCartney Aquascutum Christopher Kane Eley Kishimoto Giles

Still ill and feeling like a virus afoot here's Part II of the watch on London Fashion Week 2008. Unlike yesterday's picks today I've two clear favorites:My personal number one was definately Jaeger London.I was totally impressed by this collection and liked 99% of the clothes now I want everything from the yellow dress to the paisley-print pants.Number two for me Eley Kishimoto. Their dresses were so cute and I've to go for a pair of floral tights when I'm healthy again.
Ok now I'm leaving to drink a milk with honey and eat my yummi yummi vegetable soup.

Catch you later

What would people like me do without style.com?Exactly, missing London FW which started on saturday. Of course I'd rather attend the shows live - it's one of my biggest dreams to visit a FW one day - but this is better than nothing right? Unfortunately my bad cold turned worse so I spent my 2nd day as a 16 year old at home but before I head back into my cozy bed I made this short review of the previous shows.Hopefully you'll enjoy and I could do a favor for those of you who don't have enough time to watch the shows closely.

Atchoo and good bye

Happy Birthday...

My 16-cake and me on my 1st Birthday

The cake Lara made for me doesn't it look like a real bag?I think it does.Next to it my new bag.

...to me ☺!Today I turned 'sweet' 16 but honestly I don't feel like anything changed.Hopefully I won't get up tomorrow with grey hair.All in all my birthday was very calm and maybe a little bit boring because I'm ill and my daddy wasn't there.So long I got this 'wanna-be-chanel-classic'-bag which I already adore and some money.My momy announced there will be another present on the week-end of course I'll report more.When I entered class this morning there was another bag waiting for me - a yummie choco one which Lara made for me together with such a cute letter à la Gossip Girl.On this way:Again thank you my dearest ♥.
I hope tomorrow I 'll feel better and write more but today I just feel to sick.

Take care!

P.S. I think I got a sugar rush from all these cake...

A lot of Birthday-Love

'And the winner is....' not me ☺ but yesterday night at these year's VMAs it was definately Britney Spears who made her glossy come-back.Complete young hollywood was assembled on the shows some in great outfits and some in,well...let's say less great outfits.There wasn't really a breath taking look but for me LC did it best even if I don't like the cut of her pane that much instead her hair-do was perfect for the occasion in my eyes.Another highlight on the celeb's outfits were for me Bar Raffaeli's biker jacket and the cool boots of uncool Heidi Montag.Pink landed for me the miss of the evening with her red striped dress which reminded me a lot of a paraglider we used to play games with in the kindergarten ☻.
Who is your hit and miss?

Bye Bye

Gossip Girl's Victim

2008-09-06T14:11:00.000-07:00

Oh my gosh today was such an aweful day!I had to do so many things and just this day I felt a bit sick with such a headache.Tomorow it's my dad's birthday and after all the 'bad things' I had to do I made a cheese-cake for him.Yummi yummi...oh how I love this kind of cake.Well it's 23.23 in the evening so I'll hurry a bit because my eyes close completely.
Actually I wanted to post some pics but I hadn't enough time to take them so I decided short to write about Taylor Momsen who is maybe better known as little J. from Gossip Girl.In the show she wears beautiful stuff and see she's also improving her style off the set.Lately she showed up on the events in a very wiked kind of rock 'n' roll look.
I think there are definately more stylish people and I don't like everything she wears but for the beginning...not bad at all Little J.!
Or what would you say?Like her style?Does she dress better than the other Gossip Girl casts?

Good night and sweet dreams
See u tomorrow

Uuuuffff...every day is getting over without doing much except school stuff or school itself.I didn't even finish the In Style yet.Today I left the house at 7.30 in the morning and returned at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
Yesterday I went to my weekly guitar lesson the first time after 7 months.It was so much fun rockin' the E-guitar of my teacher.For homework I got 'Sweet about me' by Gabriella Cilmi - in my opinion a very lovely song and talented young lady.
Thank god I could watch Gossip Girl after drama class on Tuesday it made me dream about Chuck,Serena&Co. this night.What do you think about the season preview?Liked it or not?
I've to say I wasn't so thrilled but anyway nothing than better....and Gossip Girl is always good ☺.
I really would like to write you more and dish about the latest in fashion but I've to go and learn my french vocabs.Hopefullly I can post more on the week-end which starts fortunately tomorrow.Till then above you can see what I wore yesterday.

P.S. Sorry for not answering your comments.I'll try to catch it soon...

xoxo
