We were totally thrilled when we first heard about Burberry’s new face for the Fall campaign: everybody’s darling and STYLE HEROINE in the making Emma Watson. The Harry Potter star is enchanting the fashion world this August, as she rocks the cover of both Elle UK (watch the behind the scenes video here) and Teen Vogue.
Inspired by Emma’s charm we created our own, summery version of Burberry’s effortless Brit chic…
I like contrasts. So I was extremely happy when I found this shoulder-padded cardigan/jacket/awesome piece at H&M yesterday. The color is a powdery rose which perfectly sets off the sharp-shoulders and makes it work for late summer days as well as fall.
When we took a trip to Antwerp a couple of weeks ago it felt like shopping heaven! The hometown of Dries van Noten and Martin Margiela not only hosts the famous ModeMuseum but also has a quite unique selection of small boutiques, avantgarde designer stores and vintage shops. Curious;-)?
Was browsing through the new ELLE (the German issue for once) yesterday when I came across these beautiful drawings taken from Cally Blackman’s collection of the most remarkable fashion illustrations from 1900 until now. The one shown above (“Dior Dress” from 1949) was done by René Gruau for a magazine called “Femina”.
Hello you GOSSIP maniacs all around, admit it: you are dying for the new GG season to air! It’s exactly a month until the return of drama, high fashion and… Chuck Bass!

For years we had been carrying the heavy weight of those overpriced, overly decorated IT-bags and it seems as if the phenomenon just had a revival with the much-anticipated Alexander-Wang Mini Duffle bag that sold out in no time. For those of you who want to take it easy this fall here’s an eco-friendly (and comparably cheap!) alternative: the canvas shopper. We picked out these three beautys:
So the leo’s back AGAIN for fall. Only this time without the Dolce-Gabbana-boldness and much cooler! Queen Isabel (Marant) showed a new leo-look paired with black rather elegant jackets and studded booties.
Voilà, some of my favourite summer looks! As with Carola, my colour palette is rather neutral with lots of black, white and grey…spiced up with some pops of gold. This summer I practically live in my jeans shorts, which I dress up with a blazer and heels or down with my favourite Miu Miu gladiators and a simple tee. Did I mention that I spent most of the time searching for the perfectly fitting white t-shirt? Sometimes, the simple things are the hardest to find…!
Not sure if it’s still the influence of my Milanese summers (all jet-black and dressed up despite a billlllion degrees outside!) or maybe just the fact that summers aren’t what they used to be: the color palette of my favorite summer pieces is clearly not summery…BUT I have a sort of Scottish tan going on so anything brighter than “greige” would just look ridiculous anyways (I figured)!
