random | christmas wishlist

pictures via topshop; zara; aa and uo

here we go, my humble wish list. well, it is indeed humble as there is not nearly everything on it. just some random picks (from top to bottom, left to right):

1. turban hat from topshop, ca. 25£

2. sequined clutch from zara, ca. 40€

3. ambush boots from topshop, ca. 75£ (of course i'd much rather like to have the pistols, but 400€ - do not think santa is that generous)

4. le vernis by chanel, ca. 22€

5. kate moss by mario testino, seen at urban outfitters, ca. 55€

6. velvet bralet from topshop, ca. 25£

7. crystal necklace from urban outfitters, ca. 21€

8. asymmetric pumps from zara, ca. 100€ (i cannot get the fact around my head that i didn't want them when i could have them and now i am basically chasing them..)

9. THE COOLEST NAILPOLISH EVER! of course from american apparel, ca. 9€

as i said, there is a lot more, but well - this would made me happy for starters!

besides all that, i just wish for another happy year, staying healthy, spending more time with my family and friends and especially, being more creative and finding more time for le blogging!

what is your biggest wish for christmas?

sunday song | lana del rey - video games

don't have no words for it. she reminds me of natalia avalon, summer nights and red wine (even though i do not like it).
i simply love lana del rey, she is so weird and her music is as well, that it is just good.

happy sunday people!

ps: and happy first advent to everybody who celebrates it!

trends | leggings

all via we heart it

i saw them a while ago for the first time - to be exact, when i was about 6. i wore them everyday anyday, i just loved them. and i had them in many patterns and fabrics! maybe i was a trendsetter all along..
ANYWAY! when i saw these leggings a couple months ago, i didn't realize what i was seeing. my childhood love had come back to me - leggings that are in the best case knitted or made of velvet oooor, even better, have some fancy patterns that now would be called ikat or aztheqe or something similar (when i was young i was calling them christmas-leggings as many of mine had reindeers on them - LOVE!).
when i was in hamburg last weekend, i could not avoid stopping by at urban outfitters and i found that they had many lovely leggings that just felt right. they were for the most part a mixture between leggings and sweat pants; i think that is just the right mix for the lazy holy days.
howeverrr, i am not too sure if i'm not.. 16 years too old for that (yes, i had to count). what would you wear these pants to? what shoes, what tops? should you go for the all-pattern-mixed-look? well well well..

what do you think guys?

so long,

trends | zara lookbook november

november lookbook

i am madly and utterly in love with the november lookbook of zara woman's collection. the print mixture, the pj-pants, the flower prints.. love! not to forget the absolute casualness of the model's looks and her pure beauty.

L O V E  and a desperate need to have it all.

proper blogging to come soon (the usual)!

outfit | close enough to start a war

sweater,choker,parka - h&m/shorts - cos/tights - wolford/shoes - converse chucks/bag - zara/foxtail - gifted

i guess its official: tights season is back. 

whenever i get a new piece (that usually i am in love with) it is incredibly hard for me to also wear other things that i owned before. therefore, i wanted to let go off my dr.denim-jeans at least for once and dug out those cos shorts that i bought in summer. now i wish they were even shorter but only cause i can wear them with tights now ;-)

also, making something suitable for wintertimes that you bought on a hot summery day seems to be a difficult task. there is nothing worse for me than people trying to pull off their jeans cut-offs during winter with black tights. but these shorts didn't make much for a challenge.

all paired with my last-season parka from h&m and my beloved zara-bag. foxtails are cool in summer, but they really are awesome in winter (or fall, for that matter) i think!

how are you with new pieces in your closets? do you wear them until you cannot look at them anymore, too?

so long,

xo

ps: only 7 weeks to go until christmas! who is as excited as i am?!
