Tango Argentino

You guys all probably remember from older posts that I started to dance Tango Argentino about 3 months ago...well it´s summer in Berlin and there is seriously nothing nicer then having the opportunity to dance open air at the Strandbar Nr.1 in Mitte. The music is great (always a mix of original tango and nuevo tango) and the whole atmosphere is just incredible. I can only advise any of you who are able to dance to go there at some point.
I´ve actually become such a tango junkie lately that I have sort of neglected everything else, including my blog, and I am very sorry about that.
Here are a few impressions of my tango argentino experiences...enjoy!

My Fashion Week Outfits

In my opinion one of the funnest things you get to do during fashion week is to choose exciting outfits which you might not wear on a "normal" day where you have to go to university or just take a quick walk through the city. No, lets just say how it is: Fashion week is all about "being seen" and hoping that as many people as possible take pictures of you, so that you might have the chance to find youself in a few magazines later on.
For the choice of my outfits I tried to stay true to myself, meaning that I really chose pieces which I also like to wear on any kind of day (ok, maybe not in these combinations, but I think that you guys all know what I am trying to get at). I tried to choose fun and colorful outfits which are not only exciting to look at, but also comfortable to wear.
Here a quick overview...enjoy!

IstanbulNext

The last day of the Berlin Fashion Week has come to an end and with it four wonderful days full of interesting encounters, amazing shows and exciting parties.
The last three collections which I saw today were all created by young turkish designers (Ece Gözen, Nazli Bozdag and Nevra Karaca No.7). I have to say that until then I had never heard of a big turkish lable and had never seen a show by a turkish designer, so I was very interested to see what they would be like.
The designs ranged from sporty but feminine and chic pieces all the way to leather coats with an asian touch.
In the end my expectations were definitely fulfilled and I am already looking forward to the next show by a turkish designer.

Fashion Week Day 4

And also on the last day of the Berlin Fashion Week I would like to share a few street-style outfits with you.

Dawid Tomaszewski Show

Today Dawid Tomaszewski enchanted the audience with his feminine, elfish creations and extravagant braided hair-dos. Also not forgetting the ever present sunglasses which gave every outfit a mystical air.
What a great show!

Fashion Week Day 3

And another couple of impressions from the Berlin Fashion Week...enjoy!

DfT hosted by Stella Mc Cartney

Today I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Designer for Tomorrow Award 2013 which was hosted by Stella Mc Cartney! The objective of this award is to honor new, young and talented designers and the winner receives his or her own fashion show at the next Mercedes-Benz Fahion Week along with a couple of other things. This year the five finalists came from Germany, the UK, Rumania and Taiwan.
In the end the winner turned out to be Ioana Ciolacu Miron from Rumania with her collection "Paradox".
The collection was based on opposits/contrasts, such as "feminine but strong", and included alot of fluent and transparent fabrics,  which did not only end up convincing the jury but also the audience. Congratulations Ioana!
Oh and by the way, I am very sorry that I did not get a chance to take a better picture of Stella Mc Cartney, but at least you can still see her from the side...

Fashion Week Day 2

Another amazing day has come to an end and once again there are a couple of impressions which I would like to share with you. Starting from an interview which I gave for swiss tv in which I got to present my blog and talk a little about myself, all the way to the amazing Designer for Tomorrow Award.

Stay tuned for more infos and a couple of pictures! 

Marc Stone

Today I had the chance to attend the "Marc Stone" fashion show at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.
Although I usually tend to appreciate female fashion a bit more then male fashion, I have to say that it was a very pleasant show to attend. Strait cuts in rather earthy colors and leather sandals combined to create casual and stylish oufits which can be worn at any time of the day. Not forgetting to mention the also rather prominent sunglasses and backpacks which completed the looks.

Welcome home Fashion Week!

Fashion Week in Berlin and once again the city is presenting it´s unique and extravagant style.

Here are a few street-style impressions of Day1.

Enjoy!
