MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK - DAY TWO

For day 2 I choose a one of the boys but still sexy feminin look. ..Or at least I tried. I think this was my most daring and fun look, although it's all black errthang. I say that because during Fashion Week I didn't actually wear a bra, underneath the blazer. But during the outfit shooting the blazer wouldn't stay in place (hence the hideous looking fit. It's actually very form fitting and complementing. Usually..) so I had to play it safe. I'm so in love with my Selena Gomez x Adidas NEO joggers/harem pants and they were perfect for the look I was trying to create. I wish I wasn't so color blind when I choose my bag, because clearly that red MK was a complete different hue and didn't quite match my berry lips or shoes. Oh well..
Nonetheless I loved wearing this look although it made me sweat A LOT during the hot and hectic day.

THE PATRICK MOHR X K1X MK4 DCAC LIMITED EDITION T-SHIRT

In honour of the latest K1X x Patrick Mohr sneaker, the highly anticipated MK5, dropping tonight at midnight, I decided to show you an outfit with my limited edition Patrick Mohr x K1X T-shirt I received during the MK4 DCAC sneaker launch. Of course I'll be at the launch party tonight and I'll bring you all the details and pics form the party. Hopefully in real time on Instagram @LisforLOIS. (phone stolen - still no new one -.-')

I WEAR WHAT I LIKE AND I LIKE WHAT I WEAR - ABOUT BEING TOO FAT FOR CROP TOPS

Hey Guys,
How have you been? Just wanted to share my outfit I chose for the NEO Brunch with Adidas NEO in Munich earlier. Finally get to show you one of my favourite summer jackets which is this flower bomber from the Selena Gomez for Adidas NEO collection.
I've been living this combination lately:  a pair of rad ass and comfortable sneakers, high waisted skater skirts (perfect to accentuate my rather small waist and hide my growing belly under them ;) Reasons to wear high waisted skater skirts: Check! Double check! These kind of skirts were made for my body shape and I adore them!). Paired with a crop top as to give the illusion of me being super skinny, because you know, crop tops are for skinny girls.

SHORT TRIP TO MUNICH WITH ADIDAS NEO

A little while back my favourite Adidas NEO team invited me to come brunch with them in Munich, hang out and have a look at the upcoming collection and what's new for Selena Gomez x Adidas NEO, which will be in stores next week.
The night before NEO treated us to some really good burgers (Hamburgerei, München goood!) reunited with my NEO girls, Anni and Chi. And we were joined by the rest of the Today Is girls and my baby girl Serah.
During brunch at Little Charlottchen München, I browsed through the new pieces and simply enjoyed the time with the team. NEO has some cute pieces coming up, also within the Selena Gomez x NEO collection, which we weren't allowed to show you guys yet. My favourite piece has to be the jacket with leather arms and wine red checked material (I tried it on below) that's perfect for fall.
We kinda all stayed a while until brunch turned to lunch, before it was time to catch my train and head back to Berlin.

SELENA GOMEZ X ADIDAS NEO SS14 BLOGGER SHOOTING + GIVEAWAY (CLOSED)

The photo shoot took place in this amazing location which was empty and almost forsaken, but had pieces of gold all over the place. It was the perfect setting for our shoot. Edgy and with a twist, just like the collection itself. We got to play around and pull our own looks from the newly launched Selena Gomez for Adidas NEO collection which is now in stores. And after Hair & Make Up was done it was time to get started. Huge part of the collection is the flower print that comes in all sorts of pieces in Selena's collection and my favorite piece has to be the bomber jacket. Which is why it was part of my first look. I've kind of fallen in love with the pink sneakers which I weren't so sure about when I first saw them, but after styling them up I think they are perfect. Check out the looks Annie, Chi and me created.

"MODEL" OFF DUTY

Hahaha well not Model, but I was highly inspired by Stockholm Streetstyle's Model off Duty section for my post title today. Anyway as you know and saw on Instagram I had a shooting for Adidas NEO on yesterday and this is what I wore to it. I was a bit nervous because I'm not a model and although taking pictures of myself almost daily and posting them on my blog/facebook/twitter it is different when you are suddenly posing in a production full of professionals for a label with their team. I'm super lucky to have been in it with NEO because you know how much I really love the Adidas NEO team and how they always make me feel at home around them, plus I already knew the photographer personally and my co-"models" were my friends Annie and Chi. :D

THE TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERT VIP EXPERIENCE WITH KEDS

Not too long ago I visited the Taylor Swift concert here in Berlin's O2 Arena as Keds' special guest among Anni, Vreni, Mauri, Jan and a few media representatives. Keds invited us to come enjoy ourselves into their exclusive VIP Box (which is like a master suite of a hotel!) from where we had the best seats (they were even cushioned!) and had the entire O2 World in sight with just one glance. We were treated to delicious food and appetizers, great caesars salad and dessert, from which I had at least 10 - not kidding. And the champagne kept flowing as well. And shoes, lots and lots of shoes spread across the VIP Box, all from the upcoming SS2014 collection.

LAST SUNDAY..

Last Sunday was my first time ever at a stadium. Adidas invited Annie and me to come hang out for a game for the fixture FC Bayern vs Eintracht Frankfurt. We had dinner prior to the game in Adidas' sponsors lounge within the stadium, dessert and more beer in the break and more dinner after the game. Just before the game was about to start we walked down into the arena and took our seats. The minute I laid eyes on that pitch I was blown away, I nearly dropped my beer. It was such a magical sight and I was hit by the atmosphere and spirit in that stadium right away. We had the best seats, we were so close to the pitch but far enough that we could still see the entire pitch in one glance. Well it was very hollywood with the rain and the little mist and slight fog, the cheering fans all in perfect synch, how everything stopped for a second as I took it all in, except that it was real and mother nature does not stage. I couldn't stop smiling and staring. The game was too perfect too, they won 5-0.

TWO WONDERFUL DAYS WITH ADIDAS NEO

Last week I spent two wonderful days in Nürnberg for the Adidas NEO Best Friends Days which meant we all got to bring our best friend along. Unfortunately Louisa had to drop out very last minute, but Adidas was so kind to let me bring another really really great friend of mine, Ayse, along and we spent the two days with a lot of laughter, bonding, roomservice, one night at the Holiday Inn Nürnberg City, really really good dinner and breakfast, a cup of Glühwein at the Christlmarkt, late night sport session at the Hotel gym with Whoopie and my beloved Serah, a quick invasion of us girls of the Hotel Sauna, hours of girly talk and just way too much fun to fit into two days.
With my usual Adidas NEO companions in crime Desi&Nisi and their best friends we boarded the plane to Nürnberg, an hour later united with the other invited bloggers (It's no NEO trip without Desi, Nisi and Annie! Adidas NEO events are becoming something like our traditional quicky reunion spots :D ), two new faces and my much loved Adidas NEO Team.

Black J.LO (yes that's me in my P.I.M.P coat and shades for no apparent reason - it certainly wasn't sunny outside!) and WasLosAyseeee?! (Ayse) were ready to take over Nürnberg City.

PATRIZIA PEPE "GOLDENIZED" CAPSULE COLLECTION LAUNCH IN BERLIN

Last week Thursday I was invited to the launch event of Patrizia Pepe's Goldenized capsule collection.

The campagne that features fashion bloggers Sylvia Haghjoo, Patricia Manfield and one of my very favourite, Gala Gonzalez was shot by Berlin based street style photographer Sandra Semburg and Nima Benati just two days prior to the launch right here in Berlin at one of my secret hotspots I've recently taken lots of outfit pictures at. Have you guessed? Yes, it's the Museumsinsel. The campagne looks amazing and it's great to see the fusion between a designer label, fashion bloggers and a street style photographer. This campagne is the perfect example of the rising influence of fashion bloggers. Bloggers are the new models, new It girls, new faces and as the latter the new ambassadors.

Our passion for fashion and our following allows us to be taken serious in the fashion industry and end up on posters and displays in stores. No wonder Patricia Manfield, Sylvia Haghoo and Gala Gonzalez were asked to bring a little girl power to the campagne. Besides the street style flair shots there are also classic fashion posters for the campagne that also features the three lovely bloggers.

GRAZIA LOVES LEVI'S: THE NEW LEVI'S REVEL JEANS

Last Thursday Ina and I headed to the Grazia x Levi's Shopping Night, which was a ladies-only event organised by Grazia as sort of an Meet&Greet between Grazia and readers, but the actual highlight of the night was the presentation of the new Levi's Revel Jeans, which I have to admit fit quite amazingly and make a really good ass. With drinks by Ciroc (SO GOOD!!) and finger food, we had the chance to shop all night with a 15% discount all accompanied by a DJ set. But what was more exciting was the fact that we had the chance to get styled by Grazia and complete the look with Make Up by Rituals and get snapped infront of the Levi's photo wall.

Ina and I took the opportunity for a styling session with the Grazia Team and with Mirjana we searched the store for nice outfits. After waiting for what seemed like forever (the store was packed!) but with drinks to get by, Ina and I made our way into the changing room and I finally got to slip the new Revel jeans over my legs. Kinda digging my all jeans look. Check out the pictures below.
Ina went for a festival look.

ADIDAS STYLE ROOM

"Unite all originals" is next year's big over all theme at Adidas and therefore Adidas is reviving some of their old historic classics as for example the ZX850 sneaker.
As for Adidas Originals in particular - next season in honour of the World Cup to be held in Brasil, Brasil itself has become an inspiration which is visible in the Adidas Originals collection in form of footballs printed all over pullovers or simply the color green and jungle prints as a reoccurring theme.
And what's happening at Adidas NEO? Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez will be designing another collection for Adidas NEO next season. Already got my eyes set on Selena's bomber jacket with the sheer arms and floral details.

IFA WITH MONSTER: MY LOOK

DOUBLE DENIM AND A BEANIE

If you ask my friends to play the association game and my name came up, especially during winter, pretty much all of them would say: neon pink beanie.
Ah my beloved neon pink beanie. It actually became my trade mark. You couldn't see me in the dark, but when you saw a 1-50 midget (I'm taller than 150!) with a neon beanie at far you could be 100% sure it was me. Adidas Neo sent me this cute beanie that can be worn inside and out. Good thing I have more beanies to choose from for this fall/winter. They're having a "How do you rock your beanie?" Competition on Twitter at the moment for you guys. You are supposed to show your own style either via twitter or using the social mirror in store. The most creative picture wins.
Be sure to enter for a chance to win a 100€ NEO voucher before September 18th. It's your last minute chance :)

NEO PANTS CHALLENGE

Here are the pictures of my latest collaboration with Adidas NEO and it's part of the NEO Pants Challenge. Together with Laura from The Limits of Control I represent Berlin Team Blue. Our task was to style a blue trousers from the A/W collection (yes that's the collection we shot in L.A.) and go out to the streets and shoot our style. We ended up at Warschauer Straße and had a great afternoon and fun shooting these pictures. I hope you can see this in the pictures and video as well. I was really happy to work with Laura because she's a really good friend of mine and I was lucky to be put in a team with her. Also we were really lucky with our team color. Being team blue meant I got to pick my favourite trousers I already adored back in L.A.
Keep your fingers crossed for us, because we want to go to the Adidas HQ!!

L.A. WITH ADIDAS NEO: THE A/W PANTS COLLECTION

I wanted to share some more pictures from my 2083483923090343 I took during the shoot in L.A. Adidas NEO has a wide range of colorful pants for this season. You'll be seeing more of the pants collection for my latest collaboration with Adidas NEO. I was assigned a team color and had to style up that trousers. And guess what? I got my favourite pants! As if they knew :D
Can you guess which ones I loved the most?

L.A. WITH ADIDAS NEO: SUNSET MARQUIS

As if being called at every single lay-over just to make sure I was alright and being picked up by a driver  (same driver who picked me up and brought me back to the airport when it was time to say goodbye to L.A.)  in a Lincoln having my own party in the backseat with Kendrick Lamar playing at full blast (my driver was the best!!) wasn't already cute enough, I was allowed to call the beautiful Sunset Marquis my home for 3 days. It was all very overwhelming and quite fascinating for me. Sunset Marquis is a beautiful place to stay at. It's right in the center of West Hollywood. A walk away from La Cienega :D
Me and my best friend had googled the hotel prior to my trip, but those Google images do no justice.

L.A. WITH ADIDAS NEO: A DAY ON SET

Ok so when I came home from my Abifahrt I got a mail from Adidas Neo saying I won the Neo Style Challenge. My reaction: Hold on so this was an actual competition? With a prize. And I won? Wait.. did somebody say L.A.?? NOWAY!
What did I miss? When I first got to mail to participate in the Neo challenge I thought, "Why not?". I already had a clear idea of what I wanted to do before I even knew what the clothes looked like that I was going to style, plus it sounded like a fun project. I honestly thought that being a "stylist for a day" was their fancy way of terming me styling my friends. That was me being a "stylist for day", right? Somehow I missed this was an actual competition with the price being 3 days in L.A. assisting styling the new Adidas NEO campaign. You can imagine how surprised and happy I was!

READY FOR L.A.

When flying I usually try to wear something that's very comfortable. Mostly a long pair of trousers because it can get extremely cold during flights (especially night time flights!), a pair of sneakers and a top paired with a jacket I can easily remove or throw over according to what the temperature is like on board. And this is the outfit I wore during my flight to L.A. with Adidas Neo.

I usually wear the outfit that incorporates most of my clothes I want to bring along, during the day of my flight. Also I consider this as my number #1 trick. It sometimes collides with my "comfortably dressed for flight" rule. However this allows me to bring along half of my closet, even if it's just a three day trip.
