Sold My Soul For Rock&Roll.



Hamsa hand top: PrettySucks || Mesh longsleeve shirt: Romwe || Velvet sangre biker jacket: UNIF || Studded shorts: River Island (old) || Overknee socks: H&M

Let me introduce you to the most beautiful biker jacket EVER: the velvet sangre jacket by UNIF! It was a christmas present from my parents and you can imagine how happy I must had been. UNIF has always been a great inspiring brand to me and finally I got something by them haha. Velvet is definitely my favorite fabric, it's always edgy, beautiful and so soft! That jacket is everything, especially because it's got my favorite red tone and of course - it's made of my favorite fabric. I wanted to dress in a typical "rock chic" way for this look, so I grabbed my fishnet long sleeve shirt (btw it's perfect for layering and combining like when you wear it with a cut out or cropped tee/sweater or a dress…) and my Hamsa hand printed shirt I got from the german label Pretty Sucks which I already mentioned in an outfit post before and my all time favorite studded shorts you probably know. :-)

Dreaming of summer. / Bohemian inspiration.

You can barely feel spring coming, it gets warmer and warmer and the days are getting longer again. Every year at this time I'm totally in a summer mood, I'm looking forward to the hot summer nights, wearing my lovely kimonos/crop tops/shorts and enjoying the summer sun and scents of flowers and grass. As soon as spring starts I usually wear my bohemian/hippy influenced or festival inspired looks. I really would love to be at Coachella as every year but so what - I simply dress like I'd be at Coachella. 
Crochet vests, fringed kimonos, airy colorful printed dresses, feathers, floral crowns... - here I come!
The key pieces: Kimonos, crochet/lace clothing, colorful vintage ethnic prints, fringes, floral crowns, feathers and turquoise or vintage jewelry.

Pokerface.



Casino jacket: Vintage || Mesh crop top: H&M || Disco pants: American Apparel || Necklace: Urban Outfitters & vintage

Finally I can show you my other vintage jacket I got on christmas. I also got it from the "Urban Outfitters One-of-a-kind" collection like my other sequined trophy jacket. Somehow this is my favorite outfit shooting so far, it's my favorite combo ever. It's not only because it includes my favorite color black, it's actually that gold/black combo and that coat. I've never seen any coat like this before and when I visit vintage shops my "wow moment" is always missing. It has some poker inspired details and it reminds me of Las Vegas in some way haha. Well to be honest I love Las Vegas and its atmosphere, I definitely want to go there when I'm in the US someday. Maybe that jacket already had been there before or was created there, who knows. I'm always wondering where the vintage pieces actually were made, were worn and were loved. Do you have any vintage pieces and know the story of them or maybe you can imagine it? Just comment, I'm curious. :-) xx

Take me to infinity.



Shearling leather jacket: Mango || Cropped tee: PrettySucks || Floral skirt: Rosegal || Boots: Jeffrey Campbell

Do you know that problem when it's like 5-10 °C  outside and you don't have any clue what to wear? Well, this outfit is the perfect one! I had been searching for a black shearling jacket for ages after I had seen the one by ACNE which is way too expensive for me of course. When I was in Munich I found this amazing jacket on sale for only 30€ and it's definitely similar to the ACNE version. And even more important is the fact that it keeps me SO warm, I love that cozy material so much. Aside from that I'm obsessing over faux sheepskin (and I mean faux, because I totally refuse wearing real fur!)  anyway haha. Even if it's cold outside doesn't mean you can't wear any crop tops. This beautiful one from PrettySucks (a really cute & edgy online shop from Germany!) speaks for me: "Always be yourself, unless you can be a unicorn. Then always be a unicorn!". ;-) I also got another shirt from PrettySucks which I'm going to show you in the next outfit posts. The floral skirt from Rosegal (they also got many other vintage inspired items, check them out! :-) ) is also very soft and my coziest one. I never can get enough of floral printed 90s vintage pieces.

When the lights go out in London, I'll be gone.



Shearling leather jacket: River Island || Crop top: Truly Madly Deeply via Urban Outfitters || Tartan leggings: Topshop || Boots: Dr. Martens

That outfit includes many AW13 sale pieces I bought some weeks ago and they were true bargains! I was so happy when I got my hands on that beautiful shearling leather jacket for half price on Asos. It has the perfect length for a winter jacket and I have to admit that I had an eye on it months before haha. The cropped tee was also on sale on UrbanOutfitters.com! It's from my favorite t-shirt brand Truly Madly Deeply, so I simply had to put it in my basket. The leggings wasn't on sale, but I ordered it because I needed a thicker leggings which keeps me warm in winter - I don't wear any denim pants unless they are shredded and destroyed (perfect for winter, I know haha) so I had to get an alternative and those were perfect! I also love the fact that they got a green tartan print, they definitely put some punk spirit to the outfits.

When these two worlds collide, there's nothing left behind.



Shirt: Librastyle || Cardigan: Romwe || Leather jacket: Forever 21 || Ripped lace leggings: Sammy Dress || Studded bag: Sammy Dress || Boots: Dr. Martens 

All I do is layering in winter. Somehow I prefer wearing tons of layers instead of wearing a warm winter jacket and only a shirt. To me it's always way cozier and I don't need to leave my favorite jackets in my closet during winter which is SO annoying, isn't it? That grey-black cardigan has become my favorites, because it's so soft and the color goes with everything and adds a highlight to black outfits. I bought the leather jacket one size up in order to wear more layers underneath, but fortunately the jacket is pretty warm on its own because of its faux fur collar and quilted lining. I was so happy when this cool comic printed shirt arrived from Librastyle , they also sell many other awesome tees, the shop is definitely worth checking out! The tees are affordable and on top of that the quality is amazing! I also got a second cropped one  that I'm going to show you in one of my upcoming outfit posts. I hadn't worn a bag in my outfit posts before, I guess haha. Well, I had to show you this one, because it's simply perfect. When it comes to bags I'm sooooo picky. I usually wear studded or fringed ones, but I'm always looking for some edgy ones. This one has lovely studs all over and the size is perfect (I usually only take my iPhone, pocket mirror, lipstick,sunglasses and money with me) . That bad boy is from the wholesale shop Sammy Dress where you can buy so many awesome stuff for such a low price. The quality is still very satisfying and they've got some edgy clothing you won't see in the streets every day. The ripped lace leggings are also available there - somehow they remind me of my disco pants because of the very tight fitting (even though the material is less thick) what is definitely positive!

… By the way if someone's wondering about the title "When these two worlds collide, there's nothing left behind." I used - it's a part of a chorus of one of the greatest songs ever to me - "Collide" by Axewound. When you're not into rock/metal music and screaming (okay there's singing in it, only parts of screaming) you should better not listen to it haha. But if you are, you'll have to give it a try. :-)

Silver soul.



Leather jacket: Zara || Sequin dress: Zara || Necklace: Forever21 || Boots: Ash 

I saw this sequin dress in a campaign photo on the Zara website and I knew I had to get it - unfortunately I had to wait 2 months until they finally put it online and start selling it. So I immediately went to Zara the next day and bought it haha. It's simply beautiful and it's similar (no, it's almost the same!) to the sequin dress by Saint Laurent for the AW13/14 collection. I'm a huge fan of Hedi Slimane's creations, because his clothes are 90's perfection in a very glamorous and beautiful way. I love the fact that the dress is also some kind of lingerie-like because of its straps and mesh hem. To me this dress is not only wearable at night, that's why I decided to wear it with a biker jacket and my all-time favorite studded booties.
