L.A. WITH ADIDAS NEO: SUNSET MARQUIS

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.

IMG_1649

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.

OFF TO L.A.


I can't believe this is happening. My suitcase is packed and I'm looking at my flight tickets, ready to leave for the airport. I can't believe I'm about to spend 3 wonderful days with the Adidas Neo team in L.A. all because I won the Adidas Neo Style Challenge.
Somebody pinch me please.
