Although I'm a little more careful since I still couldn't find any floral mix that I'd love to have all over my legs, top or anywhere else, I remembered this jacket I used to love when I was about 14. Once belonging to my mum, I never stopped simply adoring it for its material and the way it was designed. Velvet (one of the chicest and comfortable components you could get for a blazer) and another way of letting flowers decorate the piece make it unique and meanwhile add the typical Paul Smith twist to it. Being famous for his colourful designs, Smith has done an absolutely chic way of predicting and transforming an up-and coming trend. Although one most probably doesn't find me in such colours quite often, I still like this compostion. Coral is one of my absolute evergreenes and shows that soft tone, which the current pastel-colour-thing tries to do so hard. As some might have recognised, I did this post about the whole pastel hype and how much I just don't get the intention of some girls wearing it (to get a long story short: Super pale girls like me should stay away from pastels). However, and as already mentioned in the pastel-post, I additionally remembered my old sweater (which I fondly described as that kind of colour I get during turbulences in a plane), which just perfectly matches to same greenish-grayish kind of the flowers on Smith's jacket. I can't clearly describe this kind of colour but to let it sound a little more fashionable and charming I'd call it a slight wannabe-pastel-but-remaining-low-keyed-and-NOT-candy-glossy-looking green. Perfectly matching to the coral, I combined these beautiful earrings made of corals, I just recently purchased.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Having Mondays and Tuesdays off gave me a very calm Welcome Back and therefore I decided to go on a little shopping tour (not really successful I can tell).</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">This dress is almost 2 years old and I still love it.

margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVoczibFD5gx7wcu9sIbOLBH5wSQNexMiHRm0nCq8_YAq5UWYpatdXDMnXz3idpzIuJ5RJH7v8wwWvZ2oLZt1E532dS_VSJqUZMUeyW9CUBuBLtfr-DbVxRlNPk-PMzp037_7T-iFSbYs/s1600/DSCF2706.JPG" style="cursor: move;" /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Okay, here we go with another fashion hype that established itself down to the lowest level of retail. The pastel colour-mania slightly broke out last year and is slowly but surely reaching its climax - something I can just partially understand.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Maybe this is because I'm personally just not into candy-ice-creamy-supersweety colour shade, maybe I overkilled myself with that colour in kindergarden and primary school (still having my old sweater) or maybe I just developed a deep aversion against this trend since everyone seems to think it's wearable. Which is certainly not the case. Take me! Do I look like a slight shade of egg-yellow pastel tone is going to charm my teint? Does that candyglossy rose tone will flutter my hair colour? Do I look healthy in that <b>toothpaste</b>, oh it's recently called <i>mint</i>, coloured jacket? No!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Why? Because "Baby, I was born this way", which means that I'm a superwhite girl with superwhite girl problems! Therefore I'm having an outstanding pale skin (yeah, people tend to ask me whether I'm ill if I leave the house without putting some blush on my cheeks - hard reality, people!), which doesn't even allow me to think about pulling this or that outfit of Parisienne-gone-mad-on-<i>des-nuances-pastelles</i> kind of attitude.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The reason for this post won't deal with any kind of therapeutic approach to overcome the trauma of not being able to wear any pastel colours but to tell that there is not only me existing on this planet who should just not wear these kinds of colours. I'm already into my neon-phase, which I find brave enough (neon is just the big, fat sister of innocent pastel) but please could these people around me stop pulling some trends if they are just not fitting to it?! You and I don't look like beautiful porcelain dolls with these soft colours. We look dead.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I have that one, very old RL pullover in that weird greenish colour (no, not toothpaste but rather the colour I get when turbulences arrive during a flight) and I rarely wore it in the past (still hear my mum overdramatically saying "you never wore that...never....why did we buy it again!?"). And why? Because I look paler than pale. Beyond paleness - transparency?! I don't know. I will surely do an outfitpost with this pullover and one of my favourite pieces, an old Paul Smith velvet jacket. But besides from this (and my nail polish purchase at American Apparel a year ago - same greenish colour!), I won't do any effort to let this shade on myself. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="264" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4LvNsQP1O1H6aBQJHyAGVBizilYqGkhOSt8Pr4j-8xAsbdr304mME8aB4RksfITt8lYKcDCjnrygvFy3tLLO7QlICdCAiskA_GkfByPSnMYdLL9PglEBNcwF7Lo3Rdm2hmNujbo2-y0o/s400/tumblr_lww7lbyWfk1qlmbipo1_500.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="400" /></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I know - we're all followers of the big trend factory and you can't deny. None of you can. Whether you try to be different or not - we're all somehow influenced by what is going on and what is meant to be so en vogue for the next season. Of course, each of us is trying to be different, crazily seeking for individual style and being creative and all that kind of anti-mainstream-way-of-thinking, that should distinguish you from the broad mass. But at the end of the day, we all try to transform a trend and sometimes it just FAILS. And that's where I'm coming back to this post's topic, where I just can't help myself but to shout out loud that those people with such a pale skin like me should simply STOP presenting themselves in these colours. Leave it out. Go for something different.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I'm fine with pastelcolours when I see them on people having the perfect skin type for it. You don't need to be dark-dark. You don't have to be from another origin than the middle European one to wear these shades perfectly. But at least you have to be slightly tanned. Just slightly. And maybe have some natural hair colour. Then it looks good, then you're fine, then you look like a beautiful flower that just opened itself during a sunny day in spring.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">But other than that? Catastrophe! This view doesn't only apply to me and the rest of the palest people on earth but also to those of us having an all-day-all-night card at some tanning studio. And to fulfill the discriminating colour trend: If your body is not in perfect shape (which applies to several examples during my daily tube rides), then you should rethink that trend as well. Nothing more to add here.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">But other than this, I can assure you that being born with such a skin type and not being able to wear this, is not as hard as it seems to be. It's just that thing that others should understand that this is not doable (as much as we all want it to be). Having said this, I will surely update my personal view on pastel colours with the above promised someday-outfit and will possibly be either able to demonstrate how to wear some elements of pastels in a fair way... or to show the world that it's simply impossible for some people to follow this trend. We'll see.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

While I spent some semi-sunny times in Zürs/Lech and Salzburg (more sunny times over there), I thought that at least my city would be in some spring-mood. But no. Gatwick Airport welcomed me with heavy rain and luggage that gained approximately another 20 kg after I sent it off, which let me change my clothes the moment I entered my four walls (as I once said - <i>leaving the tube & feeling as I just left the rain forest behind</i>). </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">That's why I spontaneously put on my very casual look to do all the things you're expected to do when nobody cared about your place the past two weeks (including cleaning, washing, first try-outs of ironing, feeling like a real desperate housewife while discovering that my favourite grocery store closed already... all these kind of things - totally feeling like a grownup ;)).</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">One of these typical lazy Sunday and no life-having outfits. </div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

I love using Fashiolista since it's so diverse and broad and full of amazing clothes linked with the online store you're able to order these pieces. </div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">As one might already see; I'm in love with statement necklaces and all different kinds of blazers and jackets.

Maybe that's because I'm a superlazy kid who just rarely sees the gym (the tennis court (I used to see more often in the past), the ballet room or anything else related to physical action). That's why I'm in absolute bad condition when I'm back to skiing (the most continuous sports in my entire life) and took the little breathing times to the advantage of making pictures for the blog. Posing with skis, a big fat helmet and these retroshades is more difficult than I thought. Especially, when you're helicopter skiing and this crazy propeller won't stop even when the helicopter is landing. I can still remember my first time doing this and I couldn't even properly breathe. Still, the outcome of the few pictures I took this time are quite satisfying and although I deleted the videos I took (IDIOTIC), I'm sharing these impressions with you. </div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Dealing with her daily looks, photography, traveling and her life, Kim fairly plays her part in the blogosphere.

</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b><u>When did you start your blog & why? </u></b></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">When I was 16 years old I started my first fashion blog about new fashion trends but I had no idea how I get Google-followers and after a while I deleted all. After school, I decided to live in London for a while and I met a lot of friends in fashion like bloggers. I thought, I should open a blog again and that is what I did ... in March 2011 I opened The FashionRobot. </div></div><div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><u><b>Where do you search and find your sources of inspiration?</b> </u></div></div></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">I'm inspired every time when I walk around London. London is an amazing place to get new inspirations because you have so much different people, arts, crazy places and good music. I also get inspired when I travel. I love to travel because I like to see new places and to be acquainted with different cultures. </div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b><u>Describe your style! </u></b></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">I would describe my style as relaxed glamour with a fun bohemian rocky twist. I personally like it simple (little black dress, jeans, simple shirts) and colourful (flower prints, neon, bright colours). I love to wear simple clothes together with eye catchers like shoes or accessories. My key looks are jeans, blazer/vest, a simple shirt with Chucks or high heels or a flower hippie dress with sandals. </div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">First of all my followers and the fact that I will work in fashion PR in my future. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b><u>Your trend prediction for S/S 2012? </u></b></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">My personal trend for S/S 2012 is neon! I also like printed jeans, leggings and chinos (for example with flower prints).</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">My favourite shopping places in London are Shorditch, Brick Lane, Covent Garden, Camden Town and all the markets like Portobello Market. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b><u>How do you feel about German fashion? </u></b></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">Oh, that's a tricky one. I mean you can't compare German fashion with London fashion. German fashion is generally more reserved, simple and mainstream. To be honest, I like it to wear simply clothes but I also like it to be different and creative and German is often all the same. Every country is different. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><b><u>Your future plans? Something connected to the fashion industry?</u></b></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">I started to study Business Administration this year and I will definitely work in fashion PR and management. I'm going to do an internship in fashion in August and I will surely keep bloggging. ;) </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><u>I thank Kim for answering these few questions and I wish her all the best for her internship.</u> </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><br />

Something, that surely catches everyone's eye yet builds an exceptional look. Playful, overloaded with pearls or flowers and crowned with Swarovski stones, skulls, feathers or oversized rivets, designer Kerin Rose always seems to be full of creativity that brings the normal sunglasses one is used to wear into another light. Always with a hint of rock'n'roll, Kerin is said to refer to her time studying classical music as a child and combining this to her love for rock.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Founded in 2008 with a capsule collection of four frames, A-Morir has been commissioned by contemporary artists and stars. From Lady Gaga (how could it be different!?), Tyra Banks, Snoop Dogg and Grace Jones to Rihanna, Fergie and Nicki Minaj - it seems as pretty much everyone has been falling in love with Kerin's designs before I did (shame on me). Naming her models after her favourite composers (therefore having this component of her love for music in each of them) gives each piece an individual feeling, makes a statement and pretty much goes for the in your face look. Well, indeed. Looking at all of these handcrafted beauties and superstars just doesn't do it different than forcing others to look in your face. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Going "big, hard and far" is definitely out of question with these babes.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Yesterday's morning was already foreshadowing a bombastic day....and how it was. Although skiing was only possible until noon, I tried to enjoy this weather as much as possible while "tanning" (for 10 minutes) in the sun and taking some pictures.

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Instead of enjoying this skiing season for a very last time in the typical spring conditions (sun, sun, sun, getting a sunburn & lot of freckles), the Easter bunny had a much harder time to find me this year. Since Friday it was heavily snowing not letting me even try to do some skiing due to the fog that accompanied this ugly weather. That's why I feel like having gained 10 kg during the past three days (eating and ignoring the essay waiting for me are perfect substitutes) and slowly but surely I give up on hoping for any nice weather to come. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">What looks like a romantic and wonderful winter walk was most probably one of the most horrific downhill walks I ever experienced. Besides the fact that it started snowing again after some supernice lunch, I definitely came to the point that Uggs are not made for any wilder experiences than normal pavements and powder snow. Everything beyond these conditions is simply too much for the highly praised Australian shoes. Unfortunately. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Besides from this, I tried to enjoy this little nerve wrecking adventure and now while looking at the pictures I even have to laugh.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I guess there's just no better place than this.

Since Social Wardrobe is closely working together with giglio.com and Fashion Bloggers (which just published the first official magazine), I felt honoured to get this chance and surely chose some of my favourites. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I felt this quite challenging since I couldn't really decide between all these outfits I'm intensively posting since the beginning of this year but came to the point to take some quite different stylings. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Besides from this, I created my personal dress on <a href="http://unitedstyles.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">unitedstyles.com</span></a>, which is all about customising your own clothing item. As I'm craving for some beautiful one shoulder dress at the moment (and still can't find any, that entirely convinces me), I chose to create some animal-like pattern and mix it up with low keyed black and hot red. There's just nothing you could do wrong with these colours. </div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Doing the last bits on my essays that needed to be done by then (pain in the ass), having a small but successful retail therapy and packing up all my stuff to fly home.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I felt like going for some other summer pieces, that's why I decided to finally get out my striped cardigan with its golden buttons and the playful quillings. As one would rarely find my in something that has such details, my love to this jacket is strong enough to break the habits. Actually, I went for a quite innocent/sweet/mary-had-a-little-lamb way of combining this jacket when curling my hair, pulling that Vintage hair band (which I bought together with its black sister, that I wore <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.com/2012/03/anna-in-wonderland_15.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">here</span></a>) and going for some rather low keyed accessories. All of these clothes haven't been worn in forever (at least it feels like this) and I was surprised of how I could forgotten to take them out last year. I guess there are these phases and times when you're just not into certain items and you prefer to let them partially die in your closet than bring them back to life. With this re-animation, I felt absolutely comfortable, not least because these trousers were one of my favourites back in the days and the flats are beyond comfiness.</div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Among the great music I experienced for the first time in his form, I met a lot of interesting people full of different views, backgrounds and stories (something I'm deeply thanking my parents for). Above all of this (and as already mentioned before), I met someone at a private lunch during all the Easter Festival events for the very first time, which continued to a daily chance encounter at the concerts.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnZSJXJ4creygRZc3-t1eoJTz-CtYWkVJK82C2IaelL-1-ZTATeYRdM9kR37V7uzcYtInuxK449mVCFYj7WsZagPggL5GNovgf3RGwbYYrVk0q_7F-GvZjEyrh_fdIEiat-gc2K61k6LU/s1600/Bildschirmfoto+2012-04-05+um+10.01.05.png" style="cursor: move;" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Ms. Bianca Jagger, social human rights advocate and role model of her age. There is surely no other woman than her who has caught me and meanwhile made me feel so reverent. Her charisma - something that leaves you with a blown away feeling inside. A personality with such a deep background and with an extraordinary mission, that you just can't mistake. Being chair and founder of the non-governmental Bianca Human Rights Foundation, the aim of the organization is to "defend human rights and civil liberties, achieving peace, social justice and the eradication of poverty protecting the rights of indigenous and tribal people, forest conservation and combating the threat of climate change". Something, that Mrs. Jagger made to her mission from earlier days on. Leaving her home country Nicaragua behind, Bianca received a scholarship at the Paris Institute for Political Studies to study political sciences. </div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Being open-minded, willing and full of power, she is surely a citizen of the world, a woman with a statement, who shaped women's history in the past. </div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">For me, being 20 and haven't seen anything that seems close to hard reality, she stands for various things all coming to the point that you should follow your mission. No matter what it is. In today's world, emancipation may seem to be progressive but by far not happening 1:1. </div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">It is said that behind every great man, there is a woman. But as Ms. Jagger once said in a speech, "we refuse to accept the idea that beside a great man can stand a great woman. Will we ever dare to say that behind a great woman, there is a great man? Will that time ever come?". A question that still doesn't leave my head. Although I just started slightly engaging myself to this outer world, that doesn't know any respect for you as the single person among others, I already came across this phenomenon Bianca describes. Not specifically a personal association but still something familiar the one or another of us came across already. "When a woman becomes too prominent, too important, too intelligent, too brilliant, we all come down and we criticise her for overstepping her position". Disagree? Give me one point. It doesn't even matter whether a woman was still driving successfully after being hardly criticised but isn't it exactly what happens in so many ways over and over again?</div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">This is just one point, that inspires me about this outstanding personality. And how hard is it to reach today's generation!? </div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Besides from her lifelong work, the fashionable aspect needs a great mention in this post as well. Not only that she truly stands for her mission and intention, Bianca Jagger demonstrated her personal understanding of fashion in the 60s and 70s enough. Being friends with Andy Warhol and dressing up with Diane von Fürstenberg, Bianca Jagger's time at Studio 54 reaches a broad spectrum. After reading several interviews with her, it seems as if fashion never played the protagonist of her life and fame. But how it still rocks. Past's as well as today's captures show a pretty young lady with a wilful imagination of fashion. Although this is just rare interpretation of pictures and seeing her a few times live, I personally love the timelessness with which she was playing ever since.</div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">It was an outstanding, special experience to meet Ms. Jagger and I hope this won't be the last time. If there is one thing, I can answer to the question of who stands behind who for success: </div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">This woman is brave enough for herself. Behind Bianca Jagger, there is Bianca Jagger. </div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjY7dfU8-n0tKYuO6gnUUPefHYF9H0-w7VEmTHE4H2A3M6Ouu7GH6wSIiAz8XuUEKM3oxAh0cQ32nShyphenhyphenNGwpi6XhT9XGCe9v9ttcea0zW-8dt9W4daVbFcZ5IUi9X8j6TvCfUALwkjOxoo/s640/Bianca-Jagger-Paris.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="437" /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih2Fj3w_JoWVV1A6vJCS65LdwdTUMdEZnLcOEdALD1e27DfRQnY5KCFgM0aRbv5gFwCoKNcLtgkkTwnuNnnYs4ipgbBrI2RD5QkPVdI7yuRqPFXEuMQyq1umYz-7n-fOvQU-tGIEJRSak/s640/bianca_jagger-and-andy_warhol.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="414" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">Bianca Jagger & Andy Warhol</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi62R1_HBD1QI56ZFUOo9ISHp-rdPqHX89ldbOmf_kiQuvpflbxHLgDbANyxtPhgy8UQkWYh5kaPEu64y0R5B4vWUGqEOy8wXH_oD4jiCz_o0Hk8tTDHsxow40yNMQYY-THsHGwUjjctm8/s1600/BIANCA+JAGGER+Pulls+Fashion+Faux+Pas+Feminine+SfG_bX7BU20l.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-DBtsgt65Rn8fk0ZzSQn40CvgZJhBoLP5q8ib92Qd1IY6ZGy4xMAQEU9TuhpYIFBAIOXY60chBGkJpQrNWD5HmigXvKBZTxEErb7zo4IZGAlfd3fDQnISL0_1_m5bUhfANksm_nnIBn8/s1600/bianca-jagger.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnW4VQT7Dbkqv7xlEhl8s8LWmEeC4i5A-xC_iiDvcwBBT7swgciEnlCUsXVmpuhextc_I_qH0rrJVSYyyT-ElET5KTpyqWIS4lA2N3mWNnrrZdMLgN4Or7W0DTr964uq53OmJfOBXurcA/s1600/bianca-1.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="612" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinfvFEtYIfsN2tX_5zhTBKDdkyGxtcgASBqkU9-UEe4VC5Nb7pk6Nk40_yjBk7am33y0ieecoeElb_n_kYqWHUZ31G1EPry99SVFozVlQ4kho1qhXMO_1EXgxRpdJCbUBihywr18JJQwI/s640/DSCF3997.JPG" style="cursor: move;" width="640" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><br />

Consisting of two different composers, Gustav Mahler and Ludwig van Beethoven, there could have been no better ending for my first festival in Salzburg. Beethoven's concert for Piano and Orchestra No. 2 B-Dur op. 19 (blindly copying this) was beautiful, easy and lovely to understand and hear whereas "Das Lied von der Erde" by Gustav Mahler was much harder to listen to. I even got a little nervous to the end because I couldn't stand this rather dark, depressive mood any longer but that must have been due to my little knowledge about this kind of music. Everyone else seemed to enjoy it to the maximum. Again, both concerts were conducted by Sir Simon Rattle who gained my sympathies from day to day more. After the concerts, we went to another spectacular restaurant, the M32, with amazing interior and outstanding good service - something I can't really confirm for Hotel Sacher's restaurant (yeah, surprising but true)... . </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">Overall, I can tell that this festival was one of the rarest but meanwhile most effective experiences I was able to do. I'm thankful that I have generous, educated and caring parents who never stop engaging me to new topics and things this world offers. I got to know so many interesting people, a completely new way of music and a part of cultural education that surely not everyone is able to enjoy. I hope that this is just the beginning of a long lasting relationship to another world.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">Above all of this, I met someone at a private lunch. This person inspired me for a longer period of time already and I just couldn't believe talking to her the past days. A separate blogpost will surely follow. Keep watching. </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

I can't even tell exactly why but there were these deeply emotional moments I just felt goose humps all over my arms. Conducted by Sir Simon Rattle (just like <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.com/2012/04/salzburg-easter-festival-carmen.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Carmen</span></a>), Nachtlied op. 108 was composed by German pianist Robert Schumann. </div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Schumann is one of the greatest representatives of the Romantic era and this clearly reflects in his works. </div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Time literally flew by.

I received it when I was 15 and can still remember the disaster in one of Selfridges' cabins. I wanted this dress so badly and I was just too small for it. No problem for Daddy Cool, who remembered the possibility to shorten it (wow something I didn't even think of at all at that moment) and from that on it was mine. I love it with all my heart since I wore it for so many special occasions... and it seems as if it is as timeless as a dress could be. Very young but still understatement. This time, I didn't go for my signature red lips but for a slightly warmer tone. This berry colour builds a completely new contrast to my skin and the black outfit. The earrings are secretly my mum's and were just exceptionally given to me for this event (Mum, they're still alive, I didn't loose them & you can relax now). </div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Another evening full of beautiful music and a completely different Sunday night program than usual:</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">A concert by Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 8 C-Moll conducted by Zubin Mehta, an impressive personality and by far the most beautiful concert I've ever been to. I'm not lying - this is real music. Not something I'd preferably hear at a club but something that deeply touched me. Together with the best grannies this world has seen, I've been able to sit in the second row again, therefore had a perfect view on the artists. The whole concert just lasted for one hour and a half, which I find a good time to sit and listen - other than this I would have gone a little nervous most probably. That's actually something I experienced in these past two days. It seems as everything is so fast, changing and constantly moving - nothing is really existing for a longer period and there's no real time to deeply enjoy something. Not that I'd complain about it but it's a little surprising how quickly I could get nervous just from silently sitting in a hall and listening to something for a longer period than some song of Avicii could last. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">As the concert ended, I couldn't stop feeling excited - the pride and meanwhile the passion Mehta turned to the audience was not to overlook. An impressive evening. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I finally went for the full outfit consisting of the coat I've been already wearing and the matching dress. The mixture of the tweed-like material and the lace are once again building a classy but meanwhile catchy contrast. I couldn't resist but to take my beloved earrings again... and please note that I'm proudly presenting you the 20th time I'm trying some curls (and can actually show it to the rest of the world). </div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Being in Salzburg always gives me a homely feeling. Not least because a part of my family is living here. This time is absolutely different to all the other moments I spent over here: I'm able to attend the Salzburg Easter Festival, an annual festival of opera and classical music. Founded in 1967 by Herbert von Karajan, the festival is an expansion of the summer event and attracts people from all over the world. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">As this was my very first time to see and opera, I was quite excited not knowing what I shall expect and what will happen. But the moment, I entered the building, the Großes Festspielhaus, I was already in the ban of another sphere I just rarely enter. A wild mixture of people mingling together all waiting for the opera to begin were standing around. From breathtakingly beautiful to more questionable ball gowns (why do some people think that wearing a very short dress would be appropriate for an opera premiere!? style is something you just can't buy) - I saw them all. My awareness and knowledge of bad plastic surgery extended to a completely new level and so did my cultural education. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Carmen, composed by Georges Bizet, was perfectly put in scene. Although I don't have any similar comparison to what I was able to see and hear yesterday, I just can't say anything else than share my pure fascination of it. When the first of four acts began, I felt goose humps and the way women were slowly but surely emancipating and emerging out of the slow shift to realism was amazingly brought to life. Strong, bold and with pure self-confidence Carmen was having her debut at the Easter Festivals. As I was reading some background of Bizet's opera, I was slightly surprised of how Carmen's character was presenting a fake redheaded women with a certain power, a strong voice but meanwhile no real sexiness. Maybe I was just thinking about something utopian but I associated a stereotypical Spanish full woman with wild, dark hair and nothing to hide. More passion, more temper - someone like Anna Netrebko would have perfectly fit to this role. I wonder why they didn't choose her. With a little more tackiness, Netrebko would have been the first person could think of when searching for a substitute of Madgdalena Kozena. However, Kozena, who's also the wife of Art Director Sir Simon Rattle (who did an amazing job!) played quite fair and had an unmistakably beautiful voice. So, nothing seriously to complain about. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">After three hours of sitting in the second row, we were moving from Carmen to some late night dinner at Hotel Sacher, located on the other side of the Salzach river. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Being famous for its Austrian cuisine, I enjoyed some of my favourite dishes and had some interesting, enriching talks. Some of the rare moments, when I stop thinking about everything else happening around me and simply reflect. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">For this occasion, I chose something elegant. This dress is an alltime-stunner, which is never wrong and will surely accompany me for a long time. Once possessed by my mum, it was passed on to me and as I don't have any siblings, I still need to get that feeling of second-hand within the family ;). The earrings build some contrast and together with one of my favourite bracelets, make a statement to the rather low keyed and clearly cut dress. The shoes are plain, classic and high enough to make a small girl see a little more than usual.

I don't know why but I hate short flights. They don't allow me to feel comfortable in the airplane (once I'm falling asleep, some stewardess comes over to ask for some drinks, magazines, perfumes, tell me to pull out my headphones because "we are already landing", WHATEVER #leavemeforeveralone), nor do they cause less drama than a flight to the North Pole would do. D) Last but not least, I recommend everyone to watch Jenna Marbles' way of describing exactly what I was thinking for a long time. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzcBDXyJO_w" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">"What bitches wear at the airport"</span></a> is the all-time-scenario surely everyone of us has seen at LEAST once in a lifetime (for me, it feels like it happens EVERY time I wait at the security check - it's the hard knock life for us, it's the hard knock life for us). </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Having said all of this, I'm happy to relax the upcoming days, attend some operas and just don't think about how I will manage my next departure for skiing...! ;)</div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

Due to this, I can already imagine wearing these shorts at the beach as well as during a night out. </div><div style="text-align: justify;">I wrote about my deep and everlasting passion to this material when I pulled my <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/christmas-outfit-2011.html" target="_blank">lace dress last Christmas</a> </span>but I simply love the way you can combine it to nearly every occasion. Whether day or night, lace seems to be always appropriate if worn in the right way.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This time, I went for a little contrast within the look - being covered up all in black (perfectly showing my total paleness to the world) but still using playful shorts to some boyfriendstyled blazer is one of the combinations that automatically came up my mind. To add a little more elegance yet don't leave it in a way too black in black light, I reduced my accessories to golden details only. Inspired by Dolce & Gabbana (and still completely in love with this look), I put on my creoles and just couldn't stop thinking about how this piece of jewellery adds some decisive image to the whole outfit. With this look and various ideas of how I will combine these shorts to other pieces, I went out for an early dinner at Hakkasan Mayfair with my dad.</div><div> </div><div style="text-align: center;">Blazer: Zara </div><div style="text-align: center;">Lace shorts: Zara</div><div style="text-align: center;">Top: Northland</div><div style="text-align: center;">Creoles: my mum</div><div style="text-align: center;">Bracelet: Collier de Chien, Hermès </div><div style="text-align: center;">Bag: Chanel</div><div style="text-align: center;">Sunnies: Ray Ban </div><div style="text-align: center;">Shoes: Office</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">No, not exactly a cape. But wow, I haven't worn my poncho in ages. Last times I remembered putting this beautiful thing out was during my <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/outfit-at-tefaf-2011.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">visit at Tefaf</span></a> in Maastricht and <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/2011/01/snake-is-so-much-more-than-just-game.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">a sunny day</span></a> in Cologne, which both is now exactly a year ago. Too bad but then again understandable since a poncho is something you can't wear all the time. And still, I always try to be a little innovative with it. Surely, it would always look good with some black pants but then again...it bores me out to wear the same combinations over and over again (*this statement doesn't apply to all of my black-in-black-love I'm deeply carrying in my heart). </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Originally I wanted to go for my <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/brick-lane-by-day.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">snake printed sneakers</span></a> by Prego, which I wore during a day at Brick Lane some weeks ago, but then found another piece I didn't wear in a longer time - the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/2011/11/leopard-meets-uni.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">leo dress</span></a> </span>with its outstanding shoulderpads. Lastly worn during some hard study times (why the hell did I pull this for a day in library!?), I felt the urgent need to integrate it to my poncho outfit. Due to the fact that London weather is constantly changing from 4 degrees in the morning to 15 degrees in the noon up to 19 in the afternoon, I'm sick of changing my clothes twice a day (either I'm feeling too cold, then I'm leaving the tube feeling like I left the rain forest behind..). That's why I thought that the dress will keep me warm and meanwhile doesn't give a too hot ground for the poncho. As I'm just rarely putting any lighter shades on myself, I think that this is the best way I could have done an outfit exceptionally existing of beige and nude. I thought to combine this outfit to my favourite Guess heels but then found out that this looks way too bold. The heels would be fine but the black in contrast to these light tones would have been too harsh. That's why I went for a completely new look and put on my just lately purchased Marant-alike sneakers. </div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Having parents who are not only attracted to outstanding art but also having a great sense for architecture and interior design had ultimately a major influence on me. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Since I discovered the variety of architecture blogs, I always admired some specific ones that offer me a daily dose of amazing inspiration in that sector. As I'm not calling myself an expert (in contrast to what I call my parents), I can't tell much about the facts that attract me the most in terms of specific houses, buildings or interior. But something I can certainly say: I love puristic design. Straight lines, symmetry and that special something, which engages the person to a cool but welcoming atmosphere are the ultimate factors that always make crave to live in such an environment all by myself one day. That's why I'm an obsessive collector of pictures of this world's (personally considered) most amazing houses and that's why I found that it's time to share some of the over 1000 images with my readership. To start off with my newest label "<a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Architecture" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><b>Architecture</b></span></a>" (for some other impressions, <a href="http://pulcinellata.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Architecture" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">click on the sidebar</span></a> and discover which amazing places I was able to visit and other stuff that perfectly matches this label), I thought about sharing The Washington Park Residence. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Being a project by the <a href="http://www.sullivanconard.com/" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Sullivan Conard Architects</span></a>, this house is located in Seattle near Lake Washington and Cascades. The elements of rare stone and nature orientated elements and colours build a beautiful balance to the clean and structured shape. The picture that attracted my at first (and mostly!) was the one presenting the entrance with the sunlight flooding the room and offering an incredible sight. Thanks to the broad windows, the house holds a link to the surrounding nature and meanwhile maintains privacy. The way the light can flush into each corner if you want to but doesn't necessarily has to, is something I absolutely adore. As a contrast to the raw stone and wooden elements, the steel walls add that cool atmosphere and show some major awareness of modernity without exaggerating. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">However, there is one decisive thing that didn't convince me, thus makes the whole appearance a little harder to look good for those of us having not such an architectural affinity. It's the interior. Although I like furniture, which perfectly fits to the palish nature tones, I personally don't like the various pictures hanging nearly everywhere. It takes some essential room. </div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA9zM6Lu7TXeot2jqLFIUol7LhyuWz0D9k34r-oZk-sGnpjCyVEeObscVKXJso1yrr8BXHKiSgcBTWmorPNlsTig03uX9Rcv0VUwKBSN3NeKHmzeVAV9hhNmhcw5SuUlRxu7TBLiUhVZU/s1600/wpark03.jpg" style="cursor: move;" /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Reviewing the last week was like thinking about the funniest moments someone could have in one entire life. I spent some amazing days together with one of my favourite people and some quality time yesterday with another favourite one. It seems as if half of Europe is glowing and so I couldn't resist but to take one of my some-while-ago purchases and put it on. This jacket is the perfect creation for a wonderful day out and meanwhile keeps some flashy details that let it even match for a casual dinner. The material (100 % cotton) feels supercomfy and rather gave me the impression of wearing a jumper instead of a jacket that slowly but surely makes it into my spring/summer-favourites list. The neon stripes add that vibrant touch and then again maintain that certain order (I love) when mingling with low-keyed grey. The destroyed tucks at the end of the sleeves and the neckline enduce that little rebellious something, which builds a contrast to the cut and material. The detail that adds this elegant and special twist are the golden chains and especially that oversized zipper. I just love how different elements come together on one item and create a completely new and refreshing look.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Originally, I wanted to combine this jacket to my striking skirt but I successfully forgot it back in Cologne - that's why I thought of refusing to wait for it (getting it next week when I'm meeting my parents in Austria) and rather show another alternative to wear the jacket. Sometimes, I just have that one specific outfit sticking in my head, which doesn't want to leave it until I wore it and which doesn't allow me to pull anything else with the thought items. It still gets on my nerves of how I was able to "forget" it.... but then again I suppose that this is something, which happens when you a) have three different types of closets in three different countries and b) your luggage is always suffering from tremendous obesity, which doesn't allow you to even think about packing any additional stuff. That's why I still have to wait for my aforethought combination. But I guess I'm doing fine with this casual alternative. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Together with my bag and the golden as well as skull details I chose, I spent half of the day around Tower Bridge and on the other side of the Thames. Sometimes, I just enjoy being the tourist in the city. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

But then again I thought that a) this heading is too long and b)...is it really that bad!?. Okay, maybe not that exaggerated but still: What did I think when I bought this shirt!? I can still remember it hanging there in all its amazing orange at COS and the moment I decided to go for it. Plain, minimalistic and just the flashy colour speaking for it, I already had several outfits in my head. So yesterday, London changed to summer mode (18 degrees!!) and I knew: I'm going to take this thing out and put it on! Together with my studded mouse friends and some other golden details, I felt perfectly confident to end this amazing week (and attend the lecture) with an orange statement. What happened instead?! I can't tell. But the moment, I put this shirt on, I was already in deep doubt whether this is supposed to cover up your butt but then again doesn't give you the chance to take it as a mini-dress.... or whether this is just one of the worst cuts I ever came across. Surely, I could have combined it to some plain leggings but then again I was just stuck in my imagination with these trousers and once I decided to wear something - I go for it! The following six hours were filled with looking in any kind of reflecting surfaces (buses, vitrines, doors and other similar things are a perfect mirror substitutes) and thinking about how this could look better. The answer to this? There is still no answer to it. The mixed feelings are there and my thoughts shuttle between "I will only wear this on the beach or to some leggings" and "Come one... it doesn't look <u>that</u> bad".</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">After all, I went for some shots and tada here is the outcome.
