Aztec Modern Interpretation

I decided to add a contemporary Aztec-inspired piece to my wardrobe, a fashion trend that is all about ethnic and tribal elements and not about whole looks where the origins of the look are downplayed! I have always been interested in travelling and diving into different cultures and drawing inspiration from them.
The Aztec look is the perfect Spring style, wearing a piece instantly gives you an uber-cool, street savvy, exotic style without making it look like you’ve tried too hard and instantly evokes dreams of far off vacation destinations.
Contemporary Aztec-inspired pieces use the elements while adding a new twist to keep things modern. I have seen diverse colour plattes that straggle from traditional Aztec shades, as well as an emphasis on geometry or embellishments within the fabric chosen.
If you are looking to make a statement, look for patterned skirts like I did and pair it with a casual white Tee and some nice pumps. I decided to leave my hair natural wavy to emphasize the exotic look

What are your thoughts on the Aztec-inspired trend?

PS: Anna-Lena and I stumbled over the antice flea market which is once a year along the promenade in Überlinge (lake constance) where I found this amazing mauve sequined clutch, so I incoperated it in my pics. Hope you enjoy!

Time journey into the 50's

I went to the most amazing and entertaining "Rock' n' Roll Therapy" concert of Dick Brave & The Backbeats couple days ago with one of my lovely friends Christiane. It's Rock'n'Roll music and contemporary pop music with that 50's Rock N Roll flair. Pretty good stuff especially when you like that kind of music.

So that awesome concert inspired me to do a 50's shoot, not only do I like the music but always adored the look of the fifties style divas Doris Day, Grace Kelly, Brigitte Bardot and Audrey Hepburn. I watched some hair tutorials to get that hair styles. Man I am telling ya, getting this hair flip was such a challenge, my finger got sticked all the time I rolled them up hahaha ;-)

I really welcome the comeback of that fashion style this year and so excited to do more looks if you are interested in. Let me know!

Do you like that kind of music and fashion as much as I do?

In case you don't know the band, I included a music video in this blog, you just need to scroll down and turn up the volume ;-)

Lost in the wind......

I’ve been soo looking forward to showing you this amazing cream dress from H&M– and here it is! I just adore how it looks with the earthy tones accessoires. Love the butterfly arms which gives the dress that flowy touch. Perfect to wear it to the beach or doing a picnic in the lovely nature.
I have a feeling that mixing ‘girly’ with ‘edgy’ is going to be a new fave look of mine this Spring/Summer.
I was experimenting with some different hairstyles, so some nice hippie looks turned out again. Shooting in the nature is so much fun and probably my favourite setting anyways. While Anna-Lena, who takes the most awesome pics ( thank you so much for your support, its' always a blast) and I were walking around in the countryside, we discovered those cute baby calfs, I lost my heart for the grey one, isn't is sooooooo gorgeous? :-)
What about you, where do you feel more comfortable taking your pics?
Hope you enjoy those looks!

Hatte mich schon einige Zeit darauf gefreut euch mein cremig farbenes Kleid von H&M zu präsentieren. Ich liebe wie es in Kombination mit den ganzen naturfarbenen Accessoires ausschaut. Die Schmetterlingsärmel verleihen dem Kleid eine Leichtigkeit, liebe sie! Perfect für Strangänge oder einfach zum Picknicken. Ich glaube der Mix von "mädchenhaftem" mit "kantigem" wird mein absoluter neuer Lieblingslook für den Frühlig/Sommer. Ich habe mal wieder mit meinen Haaren und verschiedenen Style herumexperiementiert, es kamen einige schöne Hippie Looks bei raus. Aufnahmen in der freien Natur bereiten mir so viel Freude und gehören wahrscheinlich zu meinen Lieblingssettings. Während Anna-Lena , die die absolut schönsten Photos schießt (vielen Dank für deine Unterstützung, es macht immer riesen Spaß, mal abgesehen von der Tatsache, wie oft wir uns schon blamiert haben hahaha ;-)..) und ich in der Landschaft herumspaziert sind, immer auf der Suche nach neuen inspirierenden Hintergründen, haben wir die süßesten Kälbchen entdeckt. Ich habe mich unsterblich in das graue Kalb verliebt, ist es nicht absolut zum dahinschmelzen?
Wie schauts bei euch aus, wo fühlt ihr Euch am wohlsten, wenn es darum geht Aufnahmen für euren Modeblog zu machen?
Ich hoffe euch gefallen die Looks?

  

Nautical in the mix

 Dress: Asos

Cardigan: Mango

Blue Blazer: Zara

Heels: Asos

Clutch white, black, red: H&M, Zara, Ebay

             Necklace: HRH Collection

One of my favourite pieces in my wardrobe is this nautical dress because of the gold buttons- I LOVE GOLD BUTTONS as they dress up any outfit :-), and the stripes. It can be worn in so many ways.  Depending on the choice of shoes, clutches, jackets and accessoires individual looks can be created.
Paired with heels and a blazer its upgraded to a business look or to go out on a date. A more casual look can be achieved by wearing flats and a cardigan.
Which look do you like better?

Flash of colours

Every girl should have a pretty florall dress in her closet. I have probably way too much but they are so flirty, playful and girly and totally reflects my personality. Especially this year I am totally obsessed with items that have floral prints on it and must admit that it's one of my favourite trend for this spring and the upcoming summer season. They do set you in such a better mood, don't they?
I wore this dress with two different heels and purses. Which combo do you like better? To give it more of an edgy touch I paired it with my oldschool denim jacket which is probably more than 13 years old.
What about you, do you like floral dresses as much as I do?
