SATURDAY ROOFTOPS

Saturday was a lovely day in Berlin. It was sunny and it felt like spring was upon arrival. I spent my first half of the day working from the Aletto Hotel roof top. (So wanna come back up here when it's truly summer!). We were shooting for Face of Africa Germany. Well I was pretty much only observing and assisting, but I had my camera with me so at some point I took it out and it all evolved into little foto session up in the skys of Berlin. Also I couldn't help but snap these beauties in between the breaks and I just had to share these pictures with you.
For the day I choose my I don't know but I was really feeling the mix of glitter, jeans and leather dressed down casually paired with my favorite boho chic bag from Stradivarius and one of my coolest Weekday sneakers. Also I kinda tried the neckparty thing. Gotta find proper necklaces for a decent neck party. Anyway...
Have a lovely week guys!

BACKSTAGE AT ALENA AKHMADULLINA PRESENTED BY MERCEDES-BENZ ELLE AND THE RUNWAY SHOW

This season was my first time backstage, backstage at a runway show. Backstage frenzy is mad. Mad in a capturing way - somewhat like a New York Minute. So many people in one room, everyone working their best. From photographers, to cameramen and video teams, interviewers and journalists for important magazines getting exclusives and in between the models have to get changed, dressed - but at least everyone has their own personal dresser. It's mad how everyone waits in line to shoot their two questions at Alena Akhmadullina while she takes minutes of her precious time to conversate, while she's still trying to keep a check on everything happening backstage because she's minutes away from her big moment. The moment her models walk the runway in her creative vision for the world to see.

"MODEL" OFF DUTY

Hahaha well not Model, but I was highly inspired by Stockholm Streetstyle's Model off Duty section for my post title today. Anyway as you know and saw on Instagram I had a shooting for Adidas NEO on yesterday and this is what I wore to it. I was a bit nervous because I'm not a model and although taking pictures of myself almost daily and posting them on my blog/facebook/twitter it is different when you are suddenly posing in a production full of professionals for a label with their team. I'm super lucky to have been in it with NEO because you know how much I really love the Adidas NEO team and how they always make me feel at home around them, plus I already knew the photographer personally and my co-"models" were my friends Annie and Chi. :D

DIAMONDS ARE A GIRLS BEST FRIEND

The Diamond Tears by Monster are easily the most beautiful headphones on planet and I love mine to death which I got for my birthday end of last year. At this point, thank you again Monster! I don't leave the house without them anymore. As I said in my outfit post earlier, every time I'm out with them people keep staring at my ears. They're super fancy and a really really gorgeous set of headphones. I think the crystal colored ones (mine) are perfect for women. They also come in different colors as for example the black ones that will look good on men.
But what's more important is the sound quality that comes with them. Listening to my iPhone music feels like a whole new experience in comparison to my earphones before. Wow Apple earphones suck.. :/ I can easily listen to music on the highest volume without feeling deaf afterwards. What's even cooler is there is another hole where I can plug another set of earphones to mine, so I can listen to music with a friend.
I think the Diamond Tears are the perfect example of a great blend between quality and look; where technology meets design, as Noel Lee was going on about in his Keynote Speech during IFA.

I'M STILL SEXY WITHOUT QUESTION! GUESS JEANS + RED COAT

If I'm sexy without question lies in the eye of the beholder, but what I mean to say or the word that I'm missing in the title is feel. I still feel sexy without question and I think I won't ever get over how good these pair of jeans make me feel. Being sexy is all about an attitude and a feeling you perceive and the perception you give. It's not really about the clothes you were (or you're not wearing), it's about an inner feeling. And if that is your boyfriend's shirt, the little black dress or your backless top that makes you feel that way, so be it.
For me it's messy hair, red lips or these pair of great fitted jeans.

THE TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERT VIP EXPERIENCE WITH KEDS

Not too long ago I visited the Taylor Swift concert here in Berlin's O2 Arena as Keds' special guest among Anni, Vreni, Mauri, Jan and a few media representatives. Keds invited us to come enjoy ourselves into their exclusive VIP Box (which is like a master suite of a hotel!) from where we had the best seats (they were even cushioned!) and had the entire O2 World in sight with just one glance. We were treated to delicious food and appetizers, great caesars salad and dessert, from which I had at least 10 - not kidding. And the champagne kept flowing as well. And shoes, lots and lots of shoes spread across the VIP Box, all from the upcoming SS2014 collection.
