GEOX ON TOUR STOPS IN BERLIN WITH FACEHUNTER

Last week the #GEOXONTOUR made a stop in Berlin and the store at Friedrichstraße momentarily turned into a shoe heaven for all invited bloggers as we were allowed to choose from any pair in the entire store to take home with. Shoe boxes everywhere and girls trying on a million pairs while Dandy Diary handled the DJ Set - pretty much last weeks scenario. Meanwhile Yvan Rodic aka Facehunter, possibly one of the most famous streetstyle photographers was there to present his streetstyle book and snap some of the guests for GEOX. On the side note: I have been facehuntered before. Very funny picture actually...

Anyway I was kinda going back and forth between choosing the love of my life (the most perfect shoe - it was love at first sight) and being reasonable (boots for winter. kinda in desperate need of those.). I spent probably an hour doing what I do best: being indecisive, when deep down I know damn well what I want and how the story's gonna unfold.

PRESS DAYS

During the press days I had the chance to go visit the different agencies spread across Berlin and have a look at upcoming designs and pieces. From Pop phones (give me the gold one!!) to futuristic heels and bags at Hugo Boss, from cake pops in shape of shoes and clothes to amazing bags at MCM (new found love!), from falling deeper in love with Nikes and discovering the sneaker story to funky shoes at Jeremy Scott x Adidas, from Drykorn to We are Knitters DIY knits, from lovely necklaces at Anthropology to yummy cupcakes at Desigual and putting on a beard for a good cause called Movember, from amazing clothes at practically everywhere and falling in love with Karlotta Wilde.

JE VEUX

1. Topshop  2. Topshop

I'm trying to make up for my lacking French skills and the disappointment I caused my French copine Victoria, by trying another post header in French.
This time I'm a hundred percent sure I got it right. Je veux indeed means I want. And I want these Topshop heels. So bad! Because they are rad.

.. wow that even rhymed..

You can find them here: Black pair. White pair.
Again, this enough to put me in a color dilemma, because I love both colors and I can imagine lots of outfits for both pairs, but I know for a fact I'd purchase both colors.
Which color do you prefer?

SALE GATHERINGS - NEW IN

As promised, even when belated, here are my recent (if we can pretend nearly a month is recent *cough*) buys from the sales that are now already over as shops prepare to bring in spring/summer collections.
I found pieces for some pretty good deals and that one dress I had given up all hope I would ever own.
Sales can be magical - or disappointing (considering your fav pieces are mostly only available in sizes 40 and up). Mine was rather bargainius.

BOY I NEED YOUR SHOES

via passions for fashion

ZARA. Since I like to snag a few pieces from the men's department (mainly jumpers), I don't see why my affection should stopp when it comes to shoes. These are actually from the Zara women's section, but you gotta admit, they do remind a lot of men's shoes.
Go ambiguity!

ZARA. Da ich mich ja oft in der Männerabteilung bediene (meistens Pullis), sehe ich nicht, warum ich mich denn nicht auch bei den Schuhen bedienen sollte. Die sind zwar aus der Zara Frauen Abteilung, aber erinnern doch stark an ein Herrenpaar.
Go Ambiguity!

GIRLS AT CHICCHICKCLUB

RED SHOES

Say hello to my bargain of the season!
I got these amazing heels for... wait for it...7€!!!
They are from H&M Trend and originally cost 59€. When I spotted them in the corner of my H&M and they were my size I new they would be perfect for a summer Maxidress in Verona.
The sole is a little slippery though.
Do you guys have any tipps on what I can do about the sole, so they don't send me kissing the floor after every 4 steps?

Sagt hallo zu meinem Bargain der Saison!
Ich habe diese wunderbaren Schuhe für... wait for it... 7€ bekommen!!!
Die sind von H&M Trend und haben vorher 59€ gekostet. Als ich sie in der Ecke von meinem H&M sah und sie meine Größe waren, wusste ich, dass sie perfect mit einem Maxikleid in Verona sein würden.
Die Sohle ist ein bisschen rutschig.
Habt ihr irgendwelche Tipps, was dagegen machen kann, damit ich nicht alle 4 Schritte mit der Fresse auf dem Boden lande?

NEW ZARA SHOES

I'm a proud owner of my very own infamous Zara pumps!
I bought two pairs of shoes right before I left for Verona. I'll show you the second pair in another post.
And I have to tell you guys these shoes were not made for walking my feet.

Ich bin jetzt eine stolze Besitzerin von meinen eigenen Infamous Zara Pumps!
Ich habe mir zwei Paar Schuhe kurz bevor ich nach Verona gegangen bin gekauft. Das zweite Paar zeige ich euch in einem anderen Post.
Und ich muss euch sagen these shoes were not made for walking meine Füße.

INTRODUCING UNITED NUDE

Creativity at an ultimate Level I Kreativität auf einem ultimativem Level

Looking through some of my designs of my room (I redesign it a lot on paper), there has been an element that dates back to 2006 and has been in each design. The illuminated shoe case. It's an simple ikea bookcase with lights in each department. Now I'm not a light architect, but I figured I could put a little lamp at the top of each department hence the name illuminated shoe case.

Now take this idea and multiply it across an entire wall, turn of the main lights, put that of the shoe case on : Welcome to the United Nude Store.

This is what I mean with taken creativity to another level.

Going to an United Nude store must feel like going to an art exhibition, only that you can buy your favorite piece of art and take it with home. :D

I can't wait till I finally get to enter one of their flagship stores. Ultimate experience!

Their shoes are crazy, odd, weird! They are so freakishly creative, infact my first response upon seeing United Nude shoes was "What is this crazy shit?!" quickly followed with a "It's awesome!"

Love at first sight.

The designer duo behind this label is Rem D Koolhaas and Galahad Clark, an architect and a shoe maker, and it was founded in 2003. After reading more about them my appreciation for their designs grew even wider.

Their shoes are like pure art to me and the more I look at them the more I appreciate them. I love the architectual touch and the creativity behind United Nude and simply the idea of combining fashion with architecture.

Truth is, I've been wanting to become an architect but also a fashion designer for a while. United Nude makes both happen :)

United Nude collaborated with Iris van Herpen, a dutch designer.

It took my a while to actually like these shoes, simply because I found the lines too distracting and I couldn't make up my mind whether this was a wedge or a heel. Today I adore this shoe and love the deceiving effect. The brown model is also one of my favorite designs. But you'd never catch me in the first pair (white) as they are just too odd for me :)

Another reason why I love United Nude is that even though they are so crazy their designs are still totally wearable! (Can't say that about Lady Gaga)

They've become my ultimate inspiration pump and fueled me to believe that everything is possible, dream bigger and combine possibilities.

We'll be an never ending love story. If United Nude was a man, this would be the moment I'd ask him to marry me :P

My top 6 favorite shoes in no particular order. It was hard picking them out. Naturally, there are also some shoes that I don't like, but I look at them with different eyes now.

via afterdrk, United Nude, angelascalon, dezeen.com

I'd love to wear United Nude shoes to Fashion Week this summer. Fashion week feels like a free pass to wearing crazy outfits, things you don't wear during your everyday life unless you are Lady Gaga ofcourse. 

The only legimate time of the year you can to go all gaga/experimental when it comes to dressing. And these shoes are made for Fashion Week (not that I wouldn't wear them every other day anyway :P) They are stunners and immediate eye catchers ;)

Infact they've got my mind spinning over potential outfits to Fashion Week.

Created to inspire. 

I believe that that is the reason behind Lady Gaga... ahhh I could go on for hours with my theories on human behaviour! Maybe I should become a psycologist :P More on my Lady Gaga theory another time ;)

We owe United Nude and Lady Gaga a lot, they make up for the lost hope, creativity and fantasies in the oh so boring people of our lost society.

This is as obvious as inspiration can get. And we need to welcome it with open arms and appreciate it.

Love Lois xxx

Ps: See you in a week! Off to Florence :D

pps: What do you get when you cross an architect with a shoe maker? United Nude ;P

NEW SHOES

Say hello to my new shoes! I won this pair of shoes from Josie Loves (great German Blog by the way) Mirapodo Birthday giveaway (thank you!). They are from Billi Bi. Seriously I would have never thought I'd win with all the people participating to win their dream shoe. But the shoes are heaven! They arrived last week, when I still wasn't allowed to go out because of my operation. And because I couldn't go out with them, I walked around the apartment in them :) They are surprisingly extra comfortable. And they look so chic too. I love them!
Going to be wearing them a lot this summer.

Tomorrow is the end of our easter holidays. I feel like I didn't have any holidays at all, being forced to stay in for a week and the week before in hospital. Normally I do a lot in the holidays or just hang out with my friends. I hardly saw any of them these holidays. Oh well.. tomorrow is back to school. Not really looking forward to it, but I wish you guys a lovely start into the new week :)

•••

Sagt hallo zu meinen neuen Schuhen! Ich habe dieses Paar beim Josie Loves (super Blog btw) Mirapodo Geburtstags Gewinnspiel gewonnen (Vielen Dank!). Sie sind von Billi Bi. Mal im ernst, ich hätte nie gedacht, dass ich gewinnen würde, bei all denen die mitgemacht haben um ihren Traumschuh zu gewinnen. Aber diese Schuhe sind göttlich! Sie sind letzte Woche, als ich noch nicht rausgehen durfte wegen der OP, angekommen. Und weil ich noch nicht raus durfte, hab ich sie eben in der Wohnung getragen :) Sie sind überraschend gemütlich. Und sie sehen so chic aus. Ich liebe sie!
Werde sie den ganzen Sommer tragen.

Morgen fängt die Schule wieder an. Ich fühle mich so als hätte Ferien gehabt, war ja gezwungen zu Hause zu bleiben für eine Woche und eine Woche im Krankenhaus. Normalerweise unternehme ich viel in den Ferien oder hänge einfach nur mit meinen Freunden rum. Ich hab sie kaum gesehen diese Ferien. Naja.. morgen heißt es dann wieder ab in die Schule. Freue mich nicht wirklich drauf, aber ich wünsche euch allen eine tolle Woche.

via Deichmann

I love this shoe from Deichmann(and I have more that I'm loving!) and I've been thinking if I should go and get it. It's a pretty peep toe shoe, classy and black. So I can wear it with just about anything. Love the see through detail, the pattern, that's the part that's got my heart skipping! :D  In summer this shoe will be perfect. I can see myself wearing it 24/7 already. But maybe I love it so much because there is a tinsy detail I want to add ;)
I only I had something like a Shoe-flatrate ^^

•••

Ich liebe diesen Schuh von Deichmann (und ich habe noch mehr die ich liebe!) und überlege ob ich ihn mir holen soll. Es ist ein schöner Peeptoe-Schuh, classy und schwarz. Also can ich in mit so gut wie allem tragen. Liebe das Detail, dieses Muster, dass ist der Teil der mein Herz höher schlagen lässt! :D Im Sommer ist dieser Schuh perfekt. Ich kann mich jetzt schon 24/7 in diesem Schuh sehen. Aber vielleicht liebe ich diesen Schuh so sehr, weil ich ein winziges Detail ergänzen möchte ;)
Hätte ich bloß so etwas wie eine Schuh-Flatrate^^

NEW BOOTIES

I went shopping for shoes today. I’ve been looking for a new pair of boots, because mine are broken and in no way acceptable to use anymore. I didn’t find the boots today, (I always need the perfect shoe, a shoe that I 100% love, when I’m buying them. But who doesn’t know this? ;) The shoe is okay, but… I like the shoe but…) but took this pair of booties with instead. 
They’re surprisingly warm and really comfy. They are lined to the inside, that bit of fur you see, is in the entire shoe. Not like most shoes, that have it merely for decorating purpose and are not warm at all, like one is deceived at first sight. The height is perfect, not too low and not too high. Just the right height for a whole day in heels. Can’t wait to wear them out already!

I got them for a really good deal too, 20€. They are from a no name shop somewhere around the Kudamm. I just realized that till today I don’t know that name of the shop! But when me and my girls talk about it, we know what we are talking about. Haha :)

I still need to look for boots though. Thinking about buying a cheap pair of fake Uggs for the mean time.

Great News: I’ve been featured on the Polyvore blog!!! My wishlist set was featured in their recent post. It totally made my day when I saw that I’ve been featured. The are some really great sets featured on the official polyvore blog. To see my set featured makes me feel honoured, especially because I’m pretty new in the polyvore world. I’ve only created 3 sets for far, one of which has been featured!

•••

Ich war heute Schuhe kaufen. Ich suche schon seit einer Weile nach neuen Stiefeln, weil meine kaputt sind, so definitiv nicht mehr getragen werden können. Ich habe heute keine Stiefel gefunden, (Ich suche immer die perfekten Schuhe, Schuhe die ich 100% liebe, wenn ich Schuhe kaufe. Aber wer kennt das nicht? Der Schuh ist okay aber... Ich mag den Schuh aber.. ) aber habe stattdessen ich diese mitgenommen.
 Sie sind überraschend warm und wirklich gemütlich. Sie sind gefüttert, das bisschen Fell, dass man sieht, ist im ganzen Schuh. Nicht wie die meisten Schuhe, die dass nur zur Deko haben und kein bisschen warm sind, wie man auf dem ersten Blick denken würde.  Die Höhe ist perfekt, nicht zu hoch, nicht zu tief.  Perfekt für einen ganzen Tag in Heels. Kann gar nicht warten sie endlich draußen zu tragen!

Ich hab sie für einen guten Preis bekommen, 20€. Sie sind von einem no name Laden am Kudamm. Mir ist gerade aufgefallen, dass ich bis heute nicht weiß, wie der Laden heißt! Aber wenn meine Freunde und ich darüber reden, wissen wir alle welcher Laden gemeint ist. Haha :)

Ich brauch trozdem noch Stiefel. Überlege ob ich mir vorübergehend einfach ein paar billige Uggs kaufe.

Tolle Neuigkeiten: Ich würde auf dem Polyvore blog gefeatured!!! Mein wishlist set wurde in deren letzten Post gefeatured. Das hat mich total glücklich gemacht, als ich das gesehen hab. Es gibt wirklich gute sets auf dem offiziellen Polyvore blog. Ich fühle mich geehrt, mein set da zu sehen, besonders weil ich neu in der Polyvore Welt bin. Ich habe bis jetzt nur 3 sets erstellt, und eins davon wurde gefeatured!

INTRODUCING CHIARA FERRAGNI BOOTS

I'm starting a new section that I'm calling Introducing. And this is the first post :) It's not meant necessarily that I'm introducing someone or something new, but people or things I just want to talk about. And I mean who doesn't know The Blond Salad?
Although her shoes are fairly new and they are freessh!

WHEN BLOGGER TURN DESIGNER I WENN BLOGGER DESIGNER WERDEN

Everyone knows Chiara Ferragni or her blog The Blond Salad or at least heard of her. She is a fashion blogger from Milan and has been blogging for about a year and a bit. Her blog has been turning out fantastic. She has 26,500+ followers and just got 37.000+ fans on Facebook too. (She really is a star in the fashion blogger world.) And recently she has designed her own pair of boots.
You Go GIRL!

The boots come in 5 different colors and can be purchased of her website chiaraferragni.com or in store - address of the store can be found on her website. I must say I'm not a big fan of the white ones, but all the other colors are so dope. Especially the red ones! These boots are so cute :)

I predict that in at least a few months everyone will know 'em, wear 'em and love 'em. And she already has one fan. Me.

She actually had a Christmas Giveaway and the prize were her new boots (ofcourse ;) ). Naturally I managed I miss the giveaway (seriously how do I always do that?? Arrgh!) else I'd be showing of my new Ferragni's. If I had won, that is ;)

But I'm not the only fan. I spotted Aimee (pronounced [Aw Mee] or Mommy without the 'M) from Song of Style (by the way also a great Blog, definitely one of my favourites :) ) sporting some Ferragni's.

For Chiara a dream has come true as she said in an interview/on her blog (I seriously need to get my sources right. Haha :) ) And I wish for her that more and more of her shoes will come and that she will truly be living her dream, if she isn't already :) Who knows, this may be the beginning of something big.

This anyway is a fabulous start. And we must admit those boots are to die for! Anyone jealous? ;)

I hope that one day my blog will be as amazing as hers and that maybe one day I'll meet her at a fashion show with other fashion bloggers. But for now I need to sort out my blog. Honestly, it really doesn't look much of a fashion blog yet. No outfit post ... and whats a fashion blog without outfits and fashion? :) And I still haven't got my header sorted out. Oww!
