Fifty Shades of Pink

15th June 2013 15 Comments

Today it’s time for a lot of pink – fifty shades of pink.

Not just flamingos have pink wings, but my backpack too.

Isn’t this the sweetest colour ever for a name necklace?

Mister flamingo thinks so too and nods.

Gosh, I feel like in a world full of candy floss.

Everything is bright, sparkling and cute.

This is probably the only backpack I will ever consider as absolutely stunning.

A barbie dream come true with the cutest wings.

This shoes are described as “Hipster mermaid shoes”, I agree and love them.

Whenever I travel by bus or train, I spot many copies of the book “Fifty Shades of Gray”. I haven’t read it and I certainly never will, but every time I read the title it makes me a little bit sad. I imagine all this shades of gray next to each other and think, how much more beautiful fifty shades of any other colour would be. Fifty shades of gray sounds like a lot of boredom to me and like the complete absence of every excitement. When I put on today’s outfit with all it’s shades of pink, the title “Fifty Shades of Pink” popped into my mind immediately. Don’t you agree this is far more fun than gray? Pink and orange is a combination I didn’t try very often before, but I like how they enhance and contrast each other.

I am in love with every piece I wear and hope you see it in the pictures. What on earth can beat holographic shoes, a winged backpack and a flamingo bodysuit together in one outfit? My look is inspired by the creative outfits of the girls in Harajuku. I think especially the shoes and backpack express the cuteness of this kind of style very well. The first time I saw this backpack was on a Tokyo style blog and since then I couldn’t stop thinking about it, till I could call it my own.

From now on I wear my name around my neck. This name necklace was a very sweet unexpected gift from Sugar & Vice and since it arrived I don’t know how I could have been without it. I love the colour of the perspex and maybe with this people will finally understand that my name is spelled without an “h” at the end. If it doesn’t work, I don’t mind if people just remember me as the pink candy floss girl instead. Now you have to excuse me, I need to spread my wings and discover a few fluffy clouds.

What do you think about this outfit my lovely readers?

Thanks a lot Sugar & Vice for sending me this beautiful name necklace. I wear it every day since it arrived.

Dancing with the Sphinx

Look King Tut, I got a new outfit!

Are you related to the sphinx shown on my bodysuit?

Sorry but I needed a jacket, it’s not summer yet.

This necklace has an Egyptian touch too, even if there is not as much gold on it as King Tut had on his collar.

My metallic skirt shines brighter than any Pharaoh’s treasure.

Did you know he is called “Abu al-Hol” (father of terror) as well? I can’t see why, he doesn’t look creepy at all.

The Ancient Egyptians loved jewellery, so do I.

You can have have a look at this outfit from every side: I love it. 😀

Jandy, Missguided, lasercut, metallic, shiny, lilac

King Tut would be impressed by this laser cut details of my skirt.

And of course frilled socks and high heels to make the legs pretty.

It’s said that the sphinx speaks in riddles. I don’t know. During all my visits to Egypt, she didn’t say a word, but always impressed me with her majestic appearance. I love to be in Gizeh, to walk around the pyramids and spend hours there. All the tourists who travel in groups have a tight time table and hurry from pyramid to museum to bus and so on, I love to linger in the presence of the sphinx. When I think of Egypt, I always feel the longing to go there again, it’s not just a travel destination for me, but I truly fell in love with this country it’s history and people. While I am far away, I am happy to have at least a little bit of Egyptian inspiration in my outfit with my bodysuit from Bambam. Isn’t it gorgeous? I instantly felt happy, after putting it on for the first time, I listened to the song at the bottom of this post and just wanted to dance like an Egyptian.

If you say one thing about the Pharaohs, say that they love jewellery and shiny things. Because of this, I thought it appropriate to combine my bodysuit with a metallic skirt from Missguided. It’s so shiny, King Tut might be jealous if he could see it. It’s available in a few other colours as well and I have the mad plan to get them all.

What do you think about this look, does it make you dance like an Egyptian?

Bodysuits for Heroines & Other Girls

18th March 2013 11 Comments

Cherry Blossom Bodysuit   – Cat Bodysuit   – Comic Print Bodysuit
Metallic Scales Bodysuit   –   Sunset and Palms Bodysuit   – Sphinx Bodysuit
Flamingo Bodysuit    – Comic Hands Bodysuits   – Barbie Bodysuit

What have Wonder Woman, Ms. Marvel, Vampirella and She-Cat in common, except being comic book heroines? Like many other heroines they wear a bodysuit and experience the most dangerous adventures wearing it. All of them look stunning in their bodysuit.

So why shouldn’t we girls without super powers do it like them? I own a whole pile of bodysuits and at the moment I am especially in love with printed versions. While other girls sometimes tell me they think bodysuits are not sexy, I am convinced by the opposite and think they flatter my body. They highlight your body shape and fit like a second skin. I style them with short skirts most of the time, for a more sporty look you can combine your bodysuit with trousers. I love all the bodysuits I show you about and truly can’t choose a favourite and wish I had them all.

For all my German speaking readers: There is a lovely post about bodysuits on the blog of my friend Elyhana. She loves bodysuits too and looks stunning in them.

Do you like bodysuits too and which one of these is your favourite?

We Can Be Heroes (Just For One Day)

5th August 2012 9 Comments

Batgirl is happy that she found her perfect bodysuit.

Dressed as a heroine the adventures in the city may begin.

Someone needs to watch over the city.

Maybe Batman will come around and join me.

Are there any bad guys out there?

I catch any villain for sure with my claws.

When everything is calm and silent I disappear between the buildings, into the darkness.

The city is safe during Batgirl’s watch and everyone can live without fear.

A mighty hero has special abilities and uses them to save the city and humanity. Who doesn’t adore the comic heroes and heroines such as Batman, Spiderman or Wonder Woman? They experience amazing stories, full of tension and valour. From all the comic book heroes, Batman has always been my favourite. He has style, elegance and he can melt into the shadows with his cool black suit. Batman drives the coolest Cars and he lives in a huge manor. He’s a true Mister Perfect, don’t you think? My excitement for this character was awaken again when Christopher Nolan’s third Batman movie was close to come to the cinema.

A few weeks ago, Lazy Oaf announced their release of a Batman Collection. Of course I had to go for something from this collection straight away. There are many beautiful clothes and accessories for men and women, which made the decision difficult. In the end, my choice fell to this marvellous bodysuit. Every real heroine needs a bodysuit, don’t you think? Heroines don’t wear shirts, but always skintight suits.

Last weekend, my darling and me went to see the new Batman movie. Me in this outfit, he went for a batman t-shirt as well. People must have thought us being the biggest fans in the cinema. I am very glad that the movie didn’t disappoint us and I can proudly continue to wear my suit.

The Batman logo from the 90s is shown on the suit and I must say, I still prefer this to the new version of the logo. This one puts me back into the bubbly fantasy world of Tim Burton’s Batman. It’s far more colourful and quirky than Christopher Nolan’s more realistic version. If I would be in Burton’s Batman universe, I would be a bad, bad Batgirl and take the Penguin’s swan boat out for a ride, invite Michelle Pfeiffer dressed as Catwoman to join me and listen to David Bowie’s song “Heroes” together.

Which is your favourite comic book hero and are you in love with the Lazy Oaf’s Batman Collection too?
