MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK - DAY FOUR

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.

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK - DAY THREE

Another day, another Fashion Week report! Let's embark on my adventures for day 3. This time again in my usual colourful spirit. I wore the most luxe Sandro piece on which I spent my savings on without a blink of an eye, paired with the coolest shoes in my entire closet. I'm so in love with this piece and the heels. Both new. But naturally I didn't leave the house without a pair of flats in my bag, which is why part of the day I wore flats. But, yes my outfit was on point most of the day! ;P

MBFW BERLIN FASHION WEEK - DAY TWO

For day 2 I choose a one of the boys but still sexy feminin look. ..Or at least I tried. I think this was my most daring and fun look, although it's all black errthang. I say that because during Fashion Week I didn't actually wear a bra, underneath the blazer. But during the outfit shooting the blazer wouldn't stay in place (hence the hideous looking fit. It's actually very form fitting and complementing. Usually..) so I had to play it safe. I'm so in love with my Selena Gomez x Adidas NEO joggers/harem pants and they were perfect for the look I was trying to create. I wish I wasn't so color blind when I choose my bag, because clearly that red MK was a complete different hue and didn't quite match my berry lips or shoes. Oh well..
Nonetheless I loved wearing this look although it made me sweat A LOT during the hot and hectic day.

Hey guys!
How have you been? I've finally been able to upload my first fashion week diary. And like in true old fashion I will take you along my day from morning to end and show you my outfit. Although I didn't do particularly much on day one as opposed to the million shenanigans I used to be up to, I had a fun day that left me tired and happy to be in bed afterwards.
Scroll down for outfit details. (All the way at the end of the post like always ;) )
Let's get started.

ABOUT FASHION WEEK.. AND THE TREND OF COMPLAINING

Well, the fashion world is filled with superficial people. *Shocker* It's nothing new, and it comes with the territory. That is the business and it's been like that every fashion week. Yet somehow blogpost complaining and ranting and assessing and judging have been surfacing like fake Chanels in a Chinese factory - quicker than you can spell F.A.K.E and in multitude. *Sigh*.. Don't get me wrong, most of the posts are legit and have a very good point.
But honey, misery is not a good color for you, complaining doesn't suit you and judging makes you look fat.
