COCKTAIL WITH JIL SANDER NAVY

Lois Opoku blue jacket ootd lisforlois
A couple of weeks back I enjoyed a cocktail evening with Jil Sander Navy. For the occasion I wore my midi-length figure hugging H&M Trend dress paired with a cobalt blue biker jacket and the perfect black bucket bag from Berlin based Designer Nina and her label Zookie. The is suede leather amazing.
Jil Sander Navy is very modern, clean cuts and silhouettes; the color scheme very simple: navy, bold green, black & white graphics and the occasional signal color orange as a subtle highlight. The store concept is a mirror of the Jil Sander philosophy. Jil Sander Navy reminds me a lot of COS but much more high end and quality. I was surprisingly very much into the new collection and I nearly picked the loafer high-heels to come home with me. The collection is very unlike me and what I'd usually wear. I prefer anything tailored at the waist, since that is what looks good on me.
But that's fun in fashion, being able to try new stuff out. Don't let yourself be defined by what's been, what you are accustomed to or people's idea of who and what you are. Be brave enough to try new things, new styles.

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

Levis Grazia Magazine Event Berlin Revel lisforlois
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.

GRAZIA STYLE NIGHT


Here are the pictures from the Grazia Style Night that took place a while back. I haven't been able to share them with you, but here they are. I wore my new Zara shoes, THE Zara shoes (remember the story?) out for the first time that night. And they are really comfy. Still got a pair for anyone who wants them!
Anyway, I'm back home after a day of horror at London Luton airport, a little stressed and deprived of sleep, but happy to be home again. Tonight I'm going to the Drake concert with my friend. Excited much! :) Last time we went to a concert together it was a hell lot of fun :D Hoping today will even better!

Hier sind die Bilder der Grazia Style Night, die schon etwas länger her zurück liegt. Ich bin vorher nicht dazu gekommen, sie mit euch zu teilen, aber hier sind sie jetzt. Ich hab meine neuen Zara Schuhe, DIE Zara Schuhe (erinnert ihr euch?), zum ersten Mal ausgeführt. Und sie waren ziemlich gemütlich. Hab immer noch ein Paar übrig für jeder, der sie mag!
Jedenfalls bin ich wieder zu Hause nach einem Tag voller Horror am London Luton Flughafen, etwas gestresst und schlafgeraubt, aber froh endlich wieder daheim zu sein. Heute Abend geh ich aufs Drake Konzert mit meiner Freundin. Aufgeregt! :) Letztes Mal als wir zusammen auf einem Konzert waren, hatten wir unglaublich viel Spaß :D Hoffe heute wird sogar noch besser!

GRAZIA AND GLAMOUR STYLENIGHT EVENTS




Tonight was the GRAZIA Stylenight event with P&C. I was originally planning on going there with Nisi and Chi. But we ended up not going because of the chaos for the big deal confirmation mail created by GRAZIA.

Somehow Nisi and Chi didn't get the confirmation mail. I did but I must have deleted it admidst all the spam and so I contacted GRAZIA the day before the event asking if it was much of a problem showing up without the printed version of the mail. Honestly, I wouldnt have noticed my mail missing, if I didn't wake up thinking, "Shit is the event today or tomorrow?!". I do this kinda stuff 2 minutes before my bus comes while I'm already 20 minutes late xD. L is for Last-Minute :P

I wrote to them on Facebook, Twitter & their e-mail. On Facebook they told me to write them an e-mail with my data. I did and never got an answer. Nisi did, but they kept answering with stuff like "Places are limited bla bla bla" Yeah, that wasn't the question. That's really poor service. Like really poor.
So we did lose interrest in going. And actually I wasnt feeling to brilliant either.

Nevermind! I'm going to Glamour Shopping event with MANGO! Whoop ! Whoop! My favourite magazine, my favourite shop. And we dont need to print a stupid confirmation letter. They've got the guestlist. ;)

Check out Mango's homepage to enter! I bet it's going to be brilliant. I'm looking forward to enjoying 30% off the new collection, drinks, ice cream and makeup consulting :) It's in 3 different cities in Germany. But I think it's happening in more countries. Hurry before all places are gone.

Heute war die Stylenight mit GRAZIA und P&C. Eigentlich wollte Nisi, Chi und ich zusammen hingehen, aber haben es uns dann doch nicht angetan mit dem ganzen Rummel  von GRAZIA um die so wichtigen Bestätigungsmails.

Irgendwie haben Nisi und Chi keine Mail bekommen. Ich hatte zwar eine, aber die muss ich mit dem ganzen Spam gelöscht haben. Ich habe dann Grazia ein Tag vor dem Event gefragt ob es denn so schlimm ist ohne der ausgedruckten Version zu kommen. Ehrlich gesagt wäre mir das auch gar nicht aufgefallen, wäre ich nicht mit dem Gedanken aufgewacht, "Scheiße ist das Event morgen oder heute?!" Ich drucke so was immer 2 Minuten bevor mein Bus kommt, während ich eh schon 20 Minuten zu spät bin aus xD L is for Last-Minute :P

Ich habe ihnen auf Facebook, twitter und an ihre Mail geschrieben. Auf Facebook haben die mir gesagt, ich solle nocheinmal eine E-mail mit meinen Daten schicken. Ich habe nie eine Antwort erhalten. Nisi schon, aber die haben immer so was gesagt von wegen "Plätze sind begrenzt bla bla bla" Ja ach, war ja auch nicht die Frage. Armes Service. Sehr armes service.
Wir haben dann unser Interesse verloren. Und ehrlich gesagt gings mir nicht so brilliant.

Scheiß drauf! Wir gehen zum Glamour Event mit MANGO! Whoop! Whoop! My Lieblingsmagazin. Mein Lieblingsshop. Und wir müssen diesen dummen Brief auch nicht ausdrucken. Die haben eine Gästeliste ;)

Geht auf Mangos Seite um euch anzumelden! Ich wette es wird super. Ich freu mich auf 30% off der neuen Kollektion, Drinks, Eis und eine Beautyberatung :) Es findet in 3 verschiedenen Städten in Deutschland statt. Beeilt euch, before alle Plätze weg sind.
