It's feels weird to admit that I have been drawn to pink coloured clothes and shoes recently. I mean... WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!? I was so sure I would never like that certain bright shade of pink again in my life, but as usual one shall never say never. Especially if it's fashion related. The colour pinks has been been associated with Barbie, blondies and pure trashiness for a while now but on the streets we can see how pink can actually look really nice and quite sophisticated, if combined with simple cuts, calm colours or silky materials. Whilst looking around the high-street and browsing my favourite online shops, pink seems to pop up everywhere! The ASOS happy days sandals are my absolute favourite. I love everything about them: The nostalgic kitsch, the metallic look and the chunky heel which hopefully makes the shoe a little bit more comfy. Pink is such a vibrant summer colour (great for a night out!) and can be easily taken into autumn. Take the streetstyle photographs as an example - pink accessories and key pieces are great colour accents when the first autumn outfits.

Excuse me talking about autumn fashion already...in the head office I'm working in I'm surrounded by wintery knits already!

looking east for inspiration

New York. London. Paris. Streetstyle photography from these fashion cities often dominate blogs and give style inspirations, but this time it's MOSCOW. Thanks to refinery29 I came across these photos of stylish Russian women, who don't need more that some clever detailing to their look. Especially the girl with the fringed scarf caught my attention. She just looks so pretty with her fuchsia lips and cute eye make-up.


New York. London. Paris. Irgendwie stammen die meisten Streetstyle Inspirationen dann doch immer von den Modehauptstädten der Welt, aber diesmal dreht es sich alles für mich um Moskau! Bei refinery29 hab ich diese tollen Streetstyle Fotos von stylischen Russinnen entdeckt und wollte sie gleich erstmal mit euch teilen. Die hübschen Damen beweisen einfach mal wieder, dass man eigentlich nur ein paar tolle Akzente setzen muss für einen tolle Look! Wunderschön fand ich vor allem das Mädchen mit dem Lippenstift im angesagten Fuchsia und geschwungenen Lidstrich. Pretty girl!

Neon. A love-hate-relationship.

Neon colours. Some of you might cringe by the look of it and some just love it. One thing is for sure, the bright colours will stay on trend for S/S 13. Erdem, House of Holland and Simone Rocha all showed collections featuring the bright hues at London Fashion Week. I always had a bit of a love-hate-relationship with neon...but now I have handed in the first part of my dissertation and I'm fed up with wearing my dull winter wardrobe, neon colours seem to be the perfect way to lighten up the day! Instead of mixing up the bright colours with black, grey and feminine materials create a much softer neon spring look.

Inspirational Pitti Uomo

Birmingham was amazing today, definitely an amazing place for shopping & food. A more detailed post will follow as soon as possible.
For now I want to share with you some streetstyle photos from the menswear fashion fair Pitti Uomo in Florence which I found on the streetfsn's blog. Pitti Uomo seems like the meeting point for the coolest and most stylish men from around the world and is therefore right on on the top of my list when it comes to places to visit. They know what to wear, how to wear it and look absolutely unique and charming. I'm in love. Are you?

Thank you streetfsn
