Stockholm based Our Legacy just released their new lookbook for the spring/summer-season 2011. They come in a “coke-like” eighties style that I really like. Some of the stuff might even end up in my closet. And by the way. If you think the guy with the beard…ehhhh…the bigger beard…looks familiar, you’re damn right. It’s Fredrik, our friend and Nikita-lover that we photographed right before we moved back to Hamburg.

Just right in time at the weekend. Some nice pictures of the new Sessùn collection. In Hamburg we have the same weather at the moment :( No summer at all. The best weather for staying at home and thinking about a new Jumpsuit …
New York based Mishka just released their new lookbook these days and still it is one of my favorite brands for guys on the market right now. Combining great t-shirt designs with a full range of other products, they manage to keep up a really strong brand image. Why? They put the right priority in their photo- as well as graphical-profile and then combining it with the right collabos and content. Looking forward to get some of the new stuff!

Yes, I’m also swapping something at the “SKYY SWAP Market“. The event will be in Berlin on friday, the 27th. The best point is, it’s a charity event for the “Berliner Aidshilfe e.V“. That’s the reason why I’m giving away my “Marc Jacobs and Maripol Necklace“. I bought it in NYC at the Marc Jacobs store that was just around my corner. That one and a ring where the only two things that I could afford. ;) But now it is time to give one of both items away. Happy necklace swapping!

The party collection is one of an important collections H&M every year. This year everything is really grown up and not as bling bling as last year which I like more. Perhaps it got something to do with the whole direction H&M is going this season. See the lastest interviews with Ann-Sofie Johansson Head of Design at H&M, Hannah Teare from Tatler Magazine and blogger Susie Bubble as well.
Since a while I’m following “Stolen Girlfriends Club” from New Zealand as a little stalker. I’m always waiting for updates. For me they represent the perfect combination between edgy, rough and well done products. In the new collections we see a lot of light layering, nude and pale colors. I love the blazer with the shoulder applications!
I’m not the tallest person on earth, but while wearing the new “Jeffrey Campbell ” I feel like a little giant. ;) During our stay in L.A. I was really willing to buy the “Opening Ceremony Version” but it wasn’t out at that moment. As I saw the post at “Les Mads” and found this link to “Revolve Clothings“, so here they are. Say hello to the next “Jeffrey Campbells” in my closet.
How nice the “Monki Lookbook for August” is looking again. When I see such a nice lookbook, I don’t feel like “ooohhhh, bad fall is coming faster than I think”. It almost lets me look forward to it. I’m totaly in love with this look. Soft hanging stuff and a really good looking galaxy printed dress…
It feels like there nothing else to do than sneaking around nice dresses and stare at them the whole day. :) Yes, of course I do have something else to do too but it is nice to look at these “Motel Dresses” and think about nice summer days. I’m in love with each one of them and especially the dotted ones!
Swedish people are famous for there gorgeous sense of style! No wonder with nice online shops like “Modekungen“. I love to surf there and get inspired by all the nice stuff. I’m still in love with laces as you can see. Pale colour in all variations, just nice.
I’m in love with stuff from denmark. When it comes to fashion it’s colourful, a mix of clean, northern classic and innovative cuts, but still extremly wearable like “Best Behavoir“.
Marie Ørberg and Malene Brøchner founded “Best Behavoir” in 2004 and since then been working on nice modern and innovative silhouettes. Have a look at the Lookbook AW 2010. When I see this nice shot preview of the SS2010 stuff, I’m really hoping to make it to the Copenhagen Fashion Week.
At the “A+ Fashionshow” all the fashion design students of HAW Hamburg showed their stuff around different themes in a really nice location in Hamburg. We liked some of the stuff and it was nice to see that New Face Nina was in the show. We spent some good time with Katha, Anna and gueststar Philipp. :) It’s allways fun to spend some time with you …..
Again, this little topknot. It’s crazy! Whenever “Ramona West” does an update in her shop I’m wondering how they always make the topknot look exactly the same way. And by the way, I love the stuff that she is selling as well. :)
Oh I love these picture from “Bea Szenfeld” the polish designer that lives in Sweden. Her collection “Sur la Plage” is inspired by the sealife, fishes and Seegurken. ;) I wanna be soo at the seaside right now.
Someone recently asked when I would put up a wishlist, so here we go. Since I am really a big fan of different t-shirts and besides some zippers, that is all that you’ll find in my closet, “Karmaloop” is always a good place to look. These tees by Dissizit, Dope Couture, Obey etc are my choice.

I love illustrations, especially fashion illustrations. When it comes to that, I like Danny Roberts from “Igor+Andre” ones the most! We all know that Zara was stealing a pictures from “Betty“, did an illustration and released a T-Shirt with her. But there is a company that does it right! “Forever21” is collaborating with “Danny Roberts“. They picked a few fashion-bloggers and did a collection. Nice move! That’s the way I like! I’m kind of jeslous in both ways. ;) I would love to do an illustration collection and be on a shirt as well. ;) Man kann nicht immer beides haben und manchmal auch gar nichts von beidem. ;)
It’s been a really long time since the last outfit post. I’ve been sooo busy the last couple of weeks. Sorry for that. I have to say that I’m still in love with my Acne-Shoes.
(Jacket – Urban Outfitters, Shirts – Cos, Pants – Cos, Shoes – Acne)
This wishlist is all about form, silhuettes and colours from “Pixiemarket“. I always like their styling and the mood they transport in their pictures.
I have a big eye on the jumpsuit. Love love love!
Now it is over! My beloved white sunglasses from “Cheapo” are broken, schnief! This time I’m buying a really priced one since I live in Sweden and good sunglasses are necessary. In L.A. I tried some “Super” with Carl Zeiss glasses and I really loved them. Especially the “W Line“. What do you think?
I love dots in all variations, small, big, transparent,… Dots, dots, dots and not alway just Leo ;) This gorgeous items are “Ruby AW 2010” from New Zealand.
Those days you see the the new “American Apparel” pictures in every blog and it is time to pick up the discussion again. Philipp and I also had really wild talkings about the former campaigns. He really liked them and I really hate them. He likes it because of the look and attitude of the pictures and the strategy to build the brand. I hate them for the easy way of promoting something. It is so easy to provoke with their pictures. It is really too easy! Everyone can do that, just hold your ass into a camera and take a picture and write something with Helvetica. Sorry, for me, that does not work. Some people compare it to the “Vice-Picture” but for me, there is a huge different. Of course “Vice” is having the same asthetic feeling but they are not trying to sell anything and there is always a story behind the picutres. I’m happy to see that “American Apparel” is changing the look of the brand now! It is hooking me up and makes me wanna buy something. That’s kind of smart, because the stuff is kind of…
Yeah, the last days summer started even in Stockholm!!! You cannot imagine how happy I am about it. So new summer stuff is needed. As bright and mixed pattern as possible, please. From 0 to 100 and I hope some really summer patterns will help me. Like a this stuff from “Topshop“. I hope you are not getting blind while looking at it. ;)
The Checkered-Brothers, Miss Acne and I spent some time in the city to get some things from the “Fashion against Aids” stuff. It was totally funny. Did you also find something? :)
I totally fell in love with this black and white dress. It is a “Minna Dress” that is a label from England and coming in AW2010. I LOVE IT!
I have to say that I’m not really an “Acne-Lover“, but from time to time I fall in love with some items. This upcoming winter it could be that I’m in love with some things that they show in their “Pre-Autum Winter Lookbook 2010“. I love the hat and the jumpsuit and the contrast in the outfits. Soft fabrics next to warm and rough stuff. I love that you just see a bit of the gorgeous shoes under the long dresses. “Acne”
Swedish “Monki” that belongs to “H&M” is coming with an update of their really cute “Spring Lookbook” from earlier this year. I still like the whole idea, the styling and the collection but I’m kind of disappointed. Normaly “Monki” always comes up with a new nice idea for each season. Kind of sad that they just updated the old one. But I think to top both the lookbook from spring and summer is a really hard job and perhaps needs to be prepard really well. We will see what they will come up with in autum. Until then, I will have a look at this really nice one.
One of my favorites labels is “Stolen Girlfriens Club” from New Zealand. Normally I don’t post pictures from Fashion Shows where I haven’t been on my own, but rules are there to break. ;) As I got an email with those pictures this morning I totally freaked out ;) I saw some of the items yesterday at “Les Mads” and was in love in a second. “Stolen Girlfriens Club” for me stands for edgy, cool, street kind of grunge kind of super something! YEAH, LOVE LOVE LOVE. The last collections here and here.
