New video guys!!
I shot a lookbook with Nisi with four of my looks I wore to fashion week. The video turned out amazing with her help. Nisi's talents stun me everytime. Anyway go see it for yourself!
Click the image to head over to my youtube channel and the video directly or watch below. Don't forget to subscribe, because guess what? It's free and it'll make me super happy to be on this journey with you together.
You can find all the details to the looks and blogpost here:
What's fall without a cozy knit, some overknee boots or bordeaux nails? It's been a while since I uploaded content to my Youtube Channel but I during Fashion Week I had the chance to be part of the #YoutubelovesFashion movement and met some really cool Youtubers, one of them being the lovely Eileena. We hit it of well and a collaboration was bound to happen sooner or later. If you have been stalking me on Snapchat(loisopoku) you already know it happened sooner.
So we filmed a two part fashion and beauty pieces/essentials/must-haves for the coming fall season and discussed our personal favourites. Enjoy some Sunday inspiration for fall. Have you guys updated your closets yet? What's your personal must-have for autumn? Let us know! Here on the blog in a comment below or on Youtube.
Also be sure to subscribe to my humble channel (it's free!) and make sure to visit Eileena's new blog and of course leave some love on both our videos and channels.
The music-cockblock-association aka GEMA fucks my brain. Getting this vlog up was next level struggle.
After my video being blocked in 27 countries (of course Germany was first on the list) for using a remix that sounded too close to the original for the content ID claim robot, I had to cut the video again after finding a great indie musician on soundcloud.
Turns out this not-so-undercover indie artist got somewhat famous so her old song became subject to a copyright claim. Same game over again.
At this point I couldn't care less about being able to monetize the video or not. After being stripped of that right, GEMA still had the audacity to block that song SOLELY in Germany. Like fuck why??? I just wanted it to be viewable regardless of where you are. And I came so close to saying, well fuck it and fuck you Germany, if want to see my video go to www.unblockyoutube.com
From here on out, it's not my wahala.
Bye. I'm out!
But being as caring as I am about my readership and viewers (hello to every 176 of you on Youtube!! <3), I couldn't let it not by my wahala.
So I finally beat the music-cockblock-association and the content ID claim robot, while still being able to find somewhat acceptable music for my video (actually I'm digging this song very much), but I couldn't bother to cut the video according to beat anymore. Forgive me.
Anyway I'm happy that my first vlog is up and it is like a homevideo of a really cool day. I take you shopping with me and my friend Sophie, just us girls being girls. Later we get to have some fun with INDIE Magazine + a shooting and I met the cutest fan girls!
I don't want to say to much since I want you to waste your next 12 minutes of your life watching my video! ;)
#GoSubscribe and #GiveItAThumbsUp!
Peace, Love and BYE-Felicia-BYE-gema
Okay this has been a step I've been thinking about for a looooong time. Trust me, I have considered stepping into the Youtube world since the end of last year. Well actually about a year ago just before my trip to L.A. I told and he suggested Youtube to me and kinda inflicted that thought within me. Then I started helping Nisi filming some of her videos and it really became something I seriously considered.
Now I've finally done it. I took the step.
Here it is. The next step. And I'm ready for new adventures and creating new content. New kind of content. You'll finally get to see me in action. I decided to start with an outfit video, something I do on my blog already anyway, just that it's in motion this time. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. So let me know what you think about my first video, which I couldn't have done without the help of my friend Nisi.
Do you like it? I really hope you do. Because I really enjoyed making it.
For outfit details, head over to my new channel: Lois Opoku and watch the video Outfit of the Day - Waterfall Skirts and Leather Jacket on Youtube. You'll find everything in the description box and I've directly linked a few items incase you want to shop them. Oh and hit the "thumbs up" and "subscribe" button while you're at it. It'll make me really happy.
Ahhhhh...
Okay. Okay.
Oh and just a piece of advice, whatever you've been planning or considering on doing, may it be this week, the last couple of months or right this second - JUST DO IT <3
