Danke für diese Perlen

Liebes Spotify, danke für diese Perlen: Fine Young Cannibals mit She Drives Me Crazy. Und wer mir jetzt noch das Gegoogle abnimmt, damit ich wieder weiß, aus welcher Werbung ich das Lied kenne, bekommt, ja, sagen wir, ein Eis spendiert. War es Kaffee?

Besonderes Augenmerk möchte ich auf Choregraphie und Verzerreffekte im Video richten. Hammer. Und in den Achtzigern war man bemüht, das Playback für das Video besonders übertrieben darzustellen, konnte der Sänger von Tears For Fears auch ganz hervorragend (vor allem hier in den ersten 22 Sekunden zu bewundern).

Summer shirt

Sommer ist da, zumindest für kurze Zeit. Also endlich Temperaturen, die ein sommerliches Streifenhörnchenshirt gerechtfertigen. Total fair. Shirt aus dem Sale von People Tree.

sounds in july 2012

I am not only into creepy, badass hip-hop. This is what I mostly listened to in july on Spotify.

Some layering.

Sale at Stine Goya

I'll have all of that. To go please! (Except for the shoes, they're already sold out) - Be sure to stop by at scandinavian label Stine Goya. It's sale.

Two toni garrns, two magazines, one special

I went looking for some afterwork reading, when I realised two totally different toni garrns on the Covers of german vogue and german elle. In Addition they both had a special about accessories. Understandable in terms of beautiful toni garrn but weird though...

This Bagpack-Handbag-Thing

Ok, here's the deal: I'm kind of obsessed with Bags. All kinds of: small bags, purses, clutch, shopper, weekender, everyday bags. And bagpacks that apparently make a huge comebacks since three years or so. So I kind of freaked out when I saw this perfect crosstown by Moving Mountains! How cool is that?

Music: I have a thing for...

50 Cent - Just A Lil Bit von universalmusicdeutschland

I have no clue where this comes from but I have a thing for dirty hip-hop and rap. That's my guilty pleasure. So every time I throw a party or are invited I try to crash to music with some 50 Cent or Jay-Z. 

DIY: Bracelets

I had some time at the weekend and summer is still not approaching so I took the inspiration I got from Honestly WTF (you can find the instructions there also!) and did some handicraft work. Got some craft supplies for doing jewelry and pulled together three bracelets. I think they are a perfect give-away for good friends. What do you think? Do you do any handicraft work?

Outfit: Who the hell is Craig?

I have no idea who Craig is. But I remember my roommate asking me that very question when I came into the bathroom two years ago. When I saw a picture on WGSN a couple of days ago, saying that baseball tees will have a huge comeback next year I pulled it out of my closet, thinking "Who the hell is Craig?"

Shirt from a Vintage Store (Kleidermarkt), Pants from American Apparel, Belt was a present (might be from some leather manufacture in Spain I guess)

Ethical Fashion Show and GreenShowroom

Can't wait for Fashion Week in Berlin to begin. Especially looking forward to visiting the GreenShowroom and their Salonshow at Hotel Adlon-Kempinski and the Ethical Fashion Show at ewerk.

TOTD: How everyone is linked to eachother on How I met your mother

Since I'm a huge fan of How I met your mother and a huge fan of gossip I totally freaked out when I stumpled upon this...

I pin my interests to Pinterest

I became addicted to Pinterest the very moment I discovered it. So if you want to, you can follow me on Pinterest as well.

It's an evergrey

Neben dem kleinen Schwarzen ist kaum etwas so universell einsetzbar wie ein grauer Strickpullover. Zu Jeans, Rock oder Shorts, über einer Bluse oder transparentem Top. Und weil wir gerade von Klassikern sprechen: Ein Hemdblusenkleid mal anders, unspießig. Das Ganze auch noch ethisch fair von bibico.

Just found out that a grey knit jumper might be essential this season, or ever. That's why I call it an evergrey. Just like the dress. Ethical fair at bibico.

Some orange

Irgendwo zwischen grau und camel bin ich süchtig nach orange geworden. Geht im Sommer und im Herbst. Und im Winter, wenn man mal Farbe braucht. Also eigentlich immer. Nach Nagellack, dem Circle Scarf von aa (in Heather Orange) jetzt auch ein großer Dreizehn-Knubbel-Riesen-Ring in orange-gold. Gefunden in der Hegestraße, Hamburg (Nummer? 52 oder so...)

Somehow I got addicted to orange. This is the newest piece that I found for summer.

Neuer Monat, neuer Versuch

Ok, ein neuer Versuch. Bislang sind Online-Bestellungen immer bei mir angekommen. Mal mit Umweg über den Zoll in der Hafencity Hamburg, aber sie sind angekommen. Bis jetzt. Denn ein Mitte April bei Topshop bestellter Rock wollte bis heute nicht den Weg finden. Zwischendurch sind später bestellte Etsy-Pakete aus den USA bei mir gelandet. Paypal-Fall eröffnen, Geld zurückfordern. Aber, das bringt den Rock ja noch nicht zu mir. Also neuer Versuch. Für Topshop ein Segen, denn ich habe gleich noch was dazu bestellt (siehe links). Daumen drücken, dass es ankommt.

Ok, I ordered over a month ago at Topshop. Nothing found the way to me. Good for Topshop: I ordered the skirt again and something on top...


edit: Topshop has never been that fast in shipping. What a surprise.

reason or rhyme - bryan ferry

Is there anything better than a perfect Bryan ferry song? I suppose not. Especially with the perfect match Kate Moss on the cover of his album Olympia.

Take a sneak into perfect homes

Once again I came across some interior and decoration in the www. Design Sponge was suggested to me by me Google Reader. And I just love it. Especially the rubric sneak peeks. Which definitely results from the fact that I might be moving in a couple of weeks if everything works out great tomorrow morning. Keep my/your fingers crossed! And thanks to sneak peek I discovered my newly gained enthusiasm for grey walls in the bedroom.

Trivia of the Day: Something about peach melba

Today is the anniversary of the death of australian opera singer Nelli Melba after whom is the dessert peach melba and toast melba are named. Even if Melba just was her stage name. She was born as Dame Helen Porter Mitchell. Melba just was a hint to the city she was born - Melbourne. Always good to know a little party talk...

Whether it's the glasses or the music

I really can't decide whether I just love the song by Devendra Banhardt, his beautiful girlfriend Rebecca Schwartz or the glasses by Oliver Peoples. But altogether in one video is just too much of everything. Ok, so who's going to by me the lipsofire sunglass in taupe tortoise in mink gradient?
