Hey guys! Whats UP? Hello!

It's been forever since I've done Style Ideas, but I've kind of missed doing these collages with pieces I covet and wish to style up, mentally dressing up in clothes I don't necessarily own. Girl's gotta dream! They're planned as a regular part of my new blog concept I'm working on. You guys let me know what you think.
For the first Style Ideas revival I was inspired by the cold breeze and the falling leaves today. The whole look is centered around my personal IT bag: the MARCIE. I know Chloé has created the bag of the moment - there is no way getting around the Chloé Drew(LINK), especially in the bloggersphere. But can I be honest for a minute? Yes, I'm a huge fan of Chloé bags, Chloé and Céline to be exact. Drew is cute for a night out. But my favourite Chloé handbags have always been the Chloé Paraty and the Chloé Marcie medium totes as perfect everyday companions. They're part of a little obsession of mine I've kept well cultivated by regularily adding them to my shopping basket while browsing online, feeding directly into my obsession, ever since I started my blog.
The look is very heavy on nude as you can tell. But I wanted to kept it fun with loose leo print pants and an eggshell white cozy knit to keep it casual, functional, cozy yet flirty & fun. Tbh, I didn't really think about the look much, I just created as I went along, just like the way I get dressed. I was just really feeling those pants in combination with nude and that stunner of a bag.
Also, I think you can never go wrong with rose gold accessories and a little mush green to embrace fall. (Need to buy that shade asap!).

Love Lois xxx

YOUTUBE: BEAUTY/FASHION PIECES FOR FALL

eileena lois youtube fall fashion beauty must haves
Hey guys!!

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.

RESERVED

Reserved Brand fashion showroom
Stopped by the Reserved Showroom last week and picked out a few (too many!) pieces for my wardrobe. Can't thank Häberlein&Maurer enough for inviting me to choose some pieces. And I can't wait to style them up!
I already wore one of my hot pieces, the hot pink stunner, to Vogue Fashion Night Out but totally forgot to snap it. Boo me!
Anyway stay tuned for more looks :)

EXCLUSIVE: MONSTER x CHANEL - LUXURY MEETS MONSTER SOUND

Monster x Chanel headphones Lois Opoku lisforlois
The first glimpse of the exclusive collaboration of Monster and Chanel was first seen on the runway in Paris of Chanel's Fall 14/15 collection in Karl Lagerfeld's famous Chanel Supermarket installation. After Swizz Beatz and King Karl posed for a picture on Instagram everyone was talking about them.. and the hideous 12 000$ Chanel shopping basket. By that time I had long had confirmation that Monster was indeed working on a Chanel heaphone and I couldn't wait to see the product. Then the hype about the headphones died down a little. One week ago at IFA was the first ever official press reveal of the luxury headphones taking Monster to a whole new level. And I was one of the only few to lucky enough to be present.

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK - DAY FOUR

lois-floral-13 fashion week street style
Hey guys!

How have you been? How was your summer? I just got back from 3 weeks in Kenya. I apologize for the awful quietness here on the blog. Initially I auto-planned some posts for you but it all got lost in the hectic of getting ready for Kenya.
Anyway I can't wait to share my travel pictures from Kenya with you! But first I want to complete my fashion week diaries and show you my last outfit. Also, I'll still be posting some material from Fashion Week throughout the next weeks, well because I can. Don't be confused.

I held day 4 at fashion week super low key, I was in an awful lot of pain but I dragged myself to two shows because I had backstage appointments too, opportunities I really didn't miss out on. My energy however was not enough for the much sought after Marina H. show (which blew minds btw!) or her closing party at night, even after coming back to rest at home. Sometimes when your body says no, you gotta respect that.
Nevertheless I never forgot to wear my smile as my prettiest accessory.

LA REDOUTE x CORALIE MARABELLE x CHRISTINE PHUNG x ETIENNE DEROEUX

It's been a while since I've done a lookbook post or simply posted pictures of a collection I liked in a kind of an inspiration. Amidst my fashion week diaries I wanted to take a minute and share a special designer collaboration and images of 3 lookbooks with you guys.
Special because it is a collaboration between a giant and three new faces on the horizon of fashion. The french fashion house giant La Redoute known for fashion from shorts to evening robes, has teamed up to support three up and coming fashion talents in a designer collaboration highlighting these young creatives - Coralie Marabelle, Christine Phung and Etienne Deroeux for A/W 2015 collection.
I love seeing big houses collaborating and supporting young designers. It's one of the most refreshing things seeing a new designer at fashion week and thinking about whats next for them. Now they are out in the open, what will they create next? Now that they have the resources and exposure, what will they make? Anyway I very much liked the capsule collections and the lookbooks, which is why I had to share.
