Something like this you will see EVERY WEEK now! It´s a lot of fun to think about how to arrange your clothes and other things. You need a small idea or topic to start and then go on. For me it´s a perfect way to get closer to my beloved clothing and I hope you feel a bit inspired by the result too...

Pyrate Style for Fashion week:

The jacket is finally done! The guys of Pyrate-Style did a great job. I've never had
an outfit that would fit so perfect into my style and my personaltity.It´s all about the feeling of Rock´n Roll but with an elegant touch. Wearing Pyrate-Style, I feel comfortable and confident, as I could conquer the world: dreaming of a corsair, the blackjack and the sound of the beating of the waves. In those dreams my name is Zora and I stand upright on my ship searching the horizon...wearing Pyrate-Style, those dreams come true...

A brand I really am a fan of is Wildfox, an American vintage-inspired women´s knitwear brand. What I like most of it is the material, they are so soft and comfortable. Apart from that, clothes from Wildfox are so multifaceted when it comes to styling. Sometimes I wear my Bel Air sweater with my black tattered pants for a rock´n roll feeling or with a pleated mini skirt, feeling a bit like a highschool girl.

2011-11-16T05:55:00.000-08:00

Let me introduce you to QUEEN FOR A DAY!

Julia Ruhnke´s label includes an extensive collection consisting of cashmere, fur vests, the unique army bags as well as a casual line with sweat pants and sweaties in LA style. After a successful start in Germany, distribution was expanded abroad. Showrooms in Paris and world-wide sales of the collection "queen for a day" followed. In Julia´s shop I felt in love with Wildfox for the first time and I´m a fan of her, her style and her shop since I walked through the door in Hamburg, Eppendorf for the first time. You can find her clothes here as well..

PS: I´m planing a cooperation with her, runwaydreamz and my love Jacqui Garcia from Jn Llovet as well, so stay tuned!

...let me introduce you to my new guest blogger...

Who is she?

A girl named Anna Maria Nemetz from Germany. Long, brown hair and big blue eyes. A sensual mouth and very long legs. A girl with outer and inner beauty. Singer, with and unexpected full and deep voice. Funny, with an infective laughter. Inspiring. Elfish. Impulsive. Open-minded. Elegant. Sensitive. Natural and never arrogant. Friendly to everyone. Fresh and wonderful.

Why her?

I asked her to be my guest blogger because of many reasons. First, she´s not only a friend, she´s the girl I made my best pictures with and the first real Model I had in front of my camera. And second, she´s on the brink to a new period of life. A period of life most of us will never experience. She´s going into a scene most of us aren´t in but want to know about. She´s having a chance most of us are dreaming of. That´s why I wanted her to share her life here. Because like that it´s also a chance for us. A chance to take part, to learn and to dream.

Where and When?

Annama is now in Paris, that´s where she will write to you from, having succes already (how could it have been different?) walking for Givenchy, Chanel and more, so she´s a very busy girl. Her first post is expected on wednesday. Pleasant anticipation!!!

What did I do yesterday? Well, yesterday I had a fantastic day with Thuy from "Twoforfashion", Nike and Sarah from "This is jane Wayne", Katja, Anjelica from "Modejunkie", Anne from "Les Attitudes" and Julia from "Frollein Liebelei". We were all invited by OTTO for this event. These are the first impression of what we did.

At the moment I´m at home with Marie eating waffles and watching a movie, so I will tell you all about my day tomorrow! Stay tuned!

Versace:
Another all-time favorite: Versace! And I´m not the only one, kids everywhere are feeling the Versace vibe. "It was the meeting of old and new Versace," Donatella said about her collection. That meeting could mean something as elemental as neoprene and plissé in the same outfit. As the latest Chanel collection, her´s was as well about light and glow, and we all loved it! Yes, it was so Donatella!
See the complete collection here and don´t forget her cooperation with H&M at the 17th of November

Chanel:

A dazzling collection. Lagerfeld said he wanted lightness. He'd used new fabrics even he didn't know how to define. They brought an iridescent mother-of-pearl shimmer to the collection—the lightness literally shone through. He archieved that I felt almost in heaven while watching the video from the show.

København

Finally! The book "Kopenhagen" arrived at my new home yesterday and in it you can find an article written by me about the Copenhagen Fashion week. This article was a whole new experience (it´s much longer than the column I write for the Yuno magazine) and I felt like a real journalist writing it (hat to do some research too). While I wrote I noticed how deep my love to Copenhagen is. I recommend you all to read it, afterwards, you´re bigest wish will be to travel to the largest city of Denmark. You can buy it here

My excuse and a new talent

At the moment I really think that this blog is more and more becoming a blog about cool and talented people and less about fashion but ok, we all need diversity in our lives don´t we?
Well, this post is kind of important. First I have to excuse. I´m so sorry for posting so few things lately. My excuse for that-time!! I turned into a workaholic. 20 hours a week, apart from school and studying. I´m working in a gallery in the part of Hamburg called "Hafen city" and also working in the café "Leonar" close to my home. My old and my new one. Yes, my mother and I are moving into a flat right around the corner. But the new one is not only much spacier, even much more beautiful. So, I hope you understand my situation. A lot of work, not enough time. But, there´s a beautiful project coming up, as always. I never stop doing what I love. If I would...god, can't even think about it...

I've talked about the cool and talented people, here´s another one. Johannes Balboa Bach alias Joggi aka LEV SCHWARZ. He´s a good friend, cute boy and TALENTED DJ. When he sent me the link to his Mixtapes I couldn´t stop listening. Hope you´ll do the same. Click here, close your eyes and listen(or groove, dance, chill, what you like best).

WE ALL LIVE IN HAPPY LITTLE BOXES!

I have to present you this young but very talented guy named Christian Baur. He is a 23 years old and a creative head, lives in Hamburg and is actually my neighbour, as we found out lately. What a small world! He studies at the Institute of Design Hamburg and is a freelancer working for various agencies. Some of his clients are Lufthansa, Greenpeace, Carlsberg, Deutsche Bahn, Erdgas, DAK or Sennheiser Communications. He lately did the new Fisherman's Friends spot and worked with some of my friends (you know Tronje from my pictures). The spot turned out so well, I just love it. Christian always works with a huge load of motivation to reach AWESOMENESS! He´s steady on the run for some new challenges, one of them could be a fashion film in cooperation with me.
I´m thinking of making a shortfilm for some time now and I´m so glad that I finally found someone to realise it. So, take a look at his site to see more of his work and stay tuned guys!

It´s all about Love.
Ok, bordeaux is an absolute autumn favourite! Wearing this colour makes me feel somehow grown-up and luxurious. I normally wear a lot of black, because I like the simplicity of it. You are able to combine it with many accessoires, nail colours or with a pair of colourful shoes. So, I´m sorry for black, but the colour of the moment is bordeaux. It´s also simple but without the "sadness" a black outfit is related to. You feel powerful, strong and effortlessly stylish. Bordeaux, grey and black are the only colours for me which can be worn from head to toe.

Here comes another video! I´m a fan of "The Kooples" for a long time now. I discovered them in Paris and since then I´m buying their clothes online and stay tuned about their latest collections. The idea behind the name of the label is so beautiful and I only can congratulate the team for such a great idea. The videos about the different couples are great. I would love to get to know every one of them. Sympatic, charismatic and full of pure beauty. Love.

Check out ANNRIA! You are hearing to the voice of Annama! Talented and wondeful! And you actually know her from many of my pictures..

The desire to reach for the sky runs deep in our human psyche.
