Kiss Kiss Good-Bye to this

Hey Lovies !
I'm looking forward to my last weekend in London, maybe it sounds funny to you because it's already Saturday, but my "weekend" is from Saturday to Monday.
Tomorrow is the Notting Hill Carnival and I have a few other things on my list that I want to see before I have to leave on the 4th September...
Oh, and by the way, did I mentioned that the designer named the Chiffon Blouse after me ?!
Now I'm the only Intern at the studio, Julia left on Thursday, but I had a great last evening with her.
First we went to French Connection ( better known as FCUK ) to buy some dresses. Every woman should have a French Connection dress in her wardrobe !
I found a beautiful LBD* with “future-Vogue-Editor” written all over it ! It perfectly fits to my Olivia-Palermo Pumps, I bought the other day...for my prom ;)
After that we went to a nearby Bar in Mayfair called Pitcher & Piano, which I can just recommend to young women who want to meet a young, good-looking and rich Wall-Street-Banker, who will might take you to DeBeers (!!!)
All in all it was a great evening, we went down Regent Street towards Piccadilly Circus and further to Trafalgar Square , where we finally said Good-Bye to each other.
Since two days now I'm working alone in the shop … It is really quite and I don't know if I could work alone all the time.

Well, I'm not sure about my future.. on the one hand I'm really interested in Fashion Merchandise & Marketing because I love Communication and being surrounded by creative people. On the other hand I'm fascinated from the printed word and of course I would love to work with People who are the best at their field.

JIL SANDER JIL - behind the scenes

Life is a solo trip, but you'll have lots of visitors



My time here in London is nearly over :( ...so I was thinking what are the 6 most important things to carry when you're traveling ?
My top 6 travel Must-Haves are:
-my iPod
-a long and cosy scarf
-a fashion magazine
-my appointment calender ( I can't go anywhere without it ! )
-some stunning sunglasses
-my favorite perfume ( at the moment Jil by Jil Sander )

What are you carrying while traveling ?

Successful women can still have their feet on the ground..They just wear better shoes


Hello Friends and Friends not yet made !

The last weekend I found out why they say it's always raining in the UK...It was raining the whole weekend -.-
I really love London. I really do. BUT this f****** rainy weather is getting on my nerves!!

So I went to the oh-so-glamorous Harrods :) So far so good, but I still didn't found the perfect shoes for my Prom... So I went to Selfridges ( which I prefer ) ...but even there I couldn't decide which shoes I'm exactly looking for... Last Station for that day was Top Shop, and I must say I really love some Kurt Geiger Shoes there, but something was missing...So finally my “Shoe-Story” hasn't ended yet... ;)
...to be continued...

Feist - Mushaboom

...mit ganz viel pimpirimpim!


Wake up !
...it's a beautiful morning :)

In case you didn't get the message, vintage clothing is having a moment. It's even got its own festival called Vintage at Goodwood this weekend !!

Work is pretty funny at the time, because everybody is working on the new collection, and somehow I'm always allowed to try the new things on :)
Today I was asked to try the new shoes for S/S 11 on, so the designer can make a better decision...Awesome !!!
And I can imagine people think we're incredible happy with what we are doing, because where singing all the time at the Atelier ;)

Thanks to Xfm London 104.9 !

Hi friends!
I'm already 35 Days in LDN and I can't believe that I have to leave in 4 weeks.
Everything's really familiar now and after some time you start taking care about the shop, the atelier, the whole brand...even if it isn't yours.
I already feel as a part of it, I think because we get pretty much involved in everything.
For example, these days the new shoes (!) arrived, and I was asked to sort them and to see if “we like them” ...or another really exiting thing was when the designer searched for models for the fotoshoot, and we also choose them and decided which photographs to take for the business card and the website and everything :)
Yeah, it's just a great work experience !

...And in our lunch-breaks we always discover something new. These days we went to a American Dinner where you can bowl,eat and drink :) And they have some mouth-watering Milkshakes!!!

As we all know music is one of the most important things in the creative scene...there are two shops which pretty impressed me, one is called Duke of Uke and it's full of ukes and the other one is Rough Trade, which is just off bricklane, there you can find any kind of music on records, cd's, cassetes...everything you want :)

So enjoy yourself !

I'm so excited !
Today the Designer asked me to draw the new designs for Autumn/Winter 10 !!!
It was great, I never drawed down someone else's ideas :)

And on monday we spend our day at Greenwich Park near the Docklands....uhhh I really love the Docks !!
So we had a little picnic, and we also went to 0°0'0'' Meridian :)
All together a great start of the week :)

PS: I hope nobody recognized that I'm a bit lazy today ;)

Schönes schläft im Schatten



Hi yah !
I'll give you a quick résumé of my weekend..

Thank God it was Friday !
So Julia and I deciced to go out, and a bottle of champagne at Julia's flat and a walk through Liverpool Street later, we finally entered to the most famous Nightclub of London, The Fabric.
It was...I can't describe it ! It was just incredible and amazing and exactly what I was dreaming of :)
Of course you have to pay like 15 Pounds to get in, provided that you look good enough to get in. It's absolutely worth it's price ;)
There just beautiful people and of course very stylish too.
Dresscode: sexy&smart.
And after a gorgeous night I enjoyed my journey home via red double decker bus.
It was amazing to see the city by night with all it's lights, fortunately I got a seat upstairs in the early morning ( to be honest at 4 a.m. ) :)
On Saturday I met the girls at Tate Modern. Oh god.. I could live in a Gallery/Museum, I just love being surrounded by great art. Francis Bacon, Juliao Sarmento, Marcel Dzama, David Shrigley, Christian Schad, Bruce Davidson, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Dali, Picasso and finally Miró....

Really great experience to visit a exhibition called "Poetry and Dream-Surrealism and Beyond" after a night in THE Fabric. hahaha...

Some unnecessary informations:
have got a sore throat, again...I have it very,very often -.-
...but there's enough tea here in the UK ;)
