Wearing glitter boots, that’s how I roll.

Birds in cages dream of flying high, high on the sky. Freedom is a precious thing for those who lack it. Seeing animals imprisoned in zoos always causes a little bit of sadness in me, despite the joy of being able to see tigers, lions and elephants, without traveling to places far away and going to a safari. Therefore I am happy, that they are pretty bird cages on my top, but just beautiful cherry blossoms instead of imprisoned animals. The sweet illustration on my top makes me think of an Asian fairy tale, just like Disney’s Mulan. I’ll never stop being a Disney girl for sure.

I am back to pink hair as you can see. Feeling like a bird myself again, Sara the flamingo. And lucky me is a free bird as well. Free to wear whatever I want, free to have fun and enjoy myself.
This is one of my genuine vintage looks again. I know a few of you would love more of my fifties looks. I wasn’t very much into the mood for this kind of style lately, but a visit to Collectif Clothing changed everything instantly. I couldn’t leave without this skirt and top. Especially the velvet skirt caught my eyes immediately. It’s amazing: Like no other shop, Collectif seems to have discovered the secret of how to make girls feels like ladies, just with a piece of clothing.

Add a little bit of glitter – just like I do with my shoes – and every gray day will have a happy end. How do you like this pink look my lovelies?

It’s So Fluffy!

A bold statement for a bold look: Bam Bam, here I am!

Bam Bam! Another day on my mission to colour the world. I am the Tasmanian Devil of colours and I mix together in a wild frenzy what crosses my way. Bam Bam says my belt and that’s exactly how I feel. My pom pom addiction has come back as well. Do you understand why when you see this pink marabou feather earrings?

When I spotted my new rainbow crop top in a vintage shop in Zurich, I had to think of my friend Jessica from Dazzle & Jolt instantly. She is a big inspiration to me, because she is the most colourful person I ever met. Just thinking about her helps me to never get gray and boring. I think the pattern of the top is rather unusual for vintage clothes. I wonder who owned it before and imagine that she bedazzled her boyfriend or had fun at the beach while wearing it.

I am hiding a Heattech top and a second pair of tights beneath my outfit, to make it fit for this cold day. Even if I love scarves and fluffy jumpers, I refuse to wear them every day. Heattech is the solution how to wear less thick things without freeze to death. People always wonder how I manage to go out with just a thin top, now you know my secret.

I hope I brightened up your gray winter day a little and I am curious to hear how you like this look.

Furby’s Colour Orgy

Of course my back is bright as well. Furby approves for sure.
Forget what I told you in my last outfit post about turning into my less quirky and more elegant “Winter-Me”: Today it’s time for a true colour orgy! I decided that not even the cold weather can keep me from wearing my jelly sandals and I finally found a jumper that seemed to be made to feed my hunger for brightness and rainbow colours. The more gray and black clothes I see on the street, the bigger my urge to dress bright gets.
It’s called Furby and I think the name was chosen well. When I first discovered it, I couldn’t decide if it is the most ugly or the most awesome jumper I’ve ever seen. It looks like being made by a mad designer, who used all the left overs of yarn he found and made this piece of clothing. When it arrived I instantly loved it so much, the decision was made: It’s truly amazing and it makes me happy! I just saw a picture of Katy Perry wearing it as well, how lovely to be her style sister!
Winter time is beanie time. I was very much addicted to veiled ones last year and after considering for a moment if this should be over by now, I couldn’t resist to customize another beanie with a beautiful birdcage veil. I love to be the pink dot in a gray winter landscape.
Wishing you a colourful day my lovelies and I am curious to hear what you think about this look!

A Crush On Shoes

15 Comments
Pom Pom shoe: Irregular Choice,  Black Boot with Triangle Cutout Heel: Jennifer Chou,
Shoe with Roses: Chinese Laundry, Purple Platform shoes: Black Milk, Jelly Pumps with Hearts: Mel by Melissa, Glitter Heel Shoe: Jeffrey Campbell
I didn’t miss that winter has arrived, but let me tell you something: I think buying (proper) winter shoes is not much fun. Most of the times the shoes you can wear on icy streets are heavy, big and look not like much fun. Therefore I rather have my eyes on pretty high heels. Spending money on beauties like those, makes me happy and this is reason enough to say the money is well invested.
Here I show you my personal selection of shoes I am in love with at the moment. All of them have something very special: They are either decorated in a cool way, have a special heel or a cool fabric. 
I think the Jeffery Campbell boot with the transparent heel filled with glitter, would be the perfect shoe for the festive season. It must look beautiful when the glitter sparkles and moves while walking. Almost like a snow globe. The Mel by Melissa shoe with the hearts is already a classic since the peep toe version from Vivienne Westwood for Melissa and I think it can’t be missed on the shoe shelf. But I wouldn’t mind at all having them all.

What do you think about these shoes, which would you love to wear?

This crazy fruit girl is ready to turn into her more elegant “Winter Self” for this post. But don’t worry: I’ll stay quirky and next summer will come sooner than you think (maybe even in the next post). I see it as my fashion goal to reinvent my style again and again and therefore I enjoy change. I don’t want to be a stereotype, I am no hipster, no vintage girl, no goth and no trash queen, I am simply me: A girl who is excited about her big playground called fashion.

This is the outfit I was wearing for my darling’s birthday. We had dinner at our favourite Indian restaurant in the city. My darling bought me the green dress during our holidays in Barcelona, because he loved the colour. I thought his birthday is the perfect occasion to wear the dress for the first time.

I think what completes the look is the velvet rose fascinator from Jazzafine. While I have a lot of bigger and more crazy fascinators, I love about this one that it’s delicate and has a perfect size to wear it to a lot of occasions. My Poisonberry lipstick from Lime Crime seems to be made for matching the fascinator.

These black Vivienne Westwood for Melissa shoes have been on my wish list for ages, but I missed them when they were on sale. Finally I found a new pair on a platform like Ebay and almost forgot to sleep till the bidding was over. I am a huntress I confess, but a vegetarian one and instead of animals I hunt Melissa shoes. Would you be interested to see a post with my whole collection?

I am very glad we shot this outfit, because it’s connected to a wonderful day and I treasure the sweet memories. I wish you a happy day as well, it’s lovely your read this post!

Thanks to Jazzafine for the lovely fascinator.

How to not get moody while it get’s colder from day to day? I admit it’s hard, but wearing colours and tropical prints is the best antidote. Adding fun to your outfits helps to keep the summer spirit in your heart!

My new T-Shirt from Dazzle & Jolt is perfect for my mission to keep summery. When it arrived, it was instant love. The adorable parrot print in the very bright colours won over my heart and I love the casual fit. I was a little bit afraid it might not look well, like long T-Shirts sometimes do on a curvy girl like me, but there was no reason to worry at all. Since I love parrots this will be among my favourites from now on.

To be prepared for quickly changing weather, the neon green rain coat is my first choice. Plastic jackets have always been among my favourites and I wish I had one in every bright colour. Because this outfit is rather casual, I wear a multi coloured sequin skirt for a touch of glitter. Something shiny never hurts!

Dressed like this I suddenly feel like dancing, no matter if there is rain or sun.What are your secrets to keep yourself in a summer mood and how do you like this outfit?

Do you think golden pineapples are holy? I don’t know, but they are gorgeous for sure!

Did I promise you more pineapple looks? Here is another one and it’s even more fruity than the last one. Probably this will be the last crop top I show you this season, before it gets too cold.

I am madly in love with the pineapple fascinator. Sometimes I wear it at home to just sit on the sofa or do the washing up, because wearing it makes me so happy. It’s very Carmen Miranda and I think the colour combination of the golden pineapple and the green headband is perfect. Definitely another favourite from my favourite hatter Pearls & Swine!

During this summer, I gained a lot of self confidence. When spring arrived, I didn’t know if I would ever wear a crop top again, because I was not sure if this trend is still fine for girls no longer in their teens. This is the shortest crop top I bought and I am really happy to wear it. I think we all should be more daring, have fun and don’t care too much about the perfect body magazines show us. Models are old with 25 nowadays, isn’t that ridiculous?

Eat pineapples, eat chocolate cake and wear crop tops or whatever you like to my lovelies and never let somebody teach you something else! Whatever you wear, wear it with confidence and it will look stunning.

How do you like this pineapple dedicated outfit my lovelies?

Yellow dip dye tights go surprisingly well with baby blue heels, what a new discovery!

Sometimes I wish the world was made of candy floss. Imagine a place where everything is full of pastels, candy and softness. Anything harmful or bad is beyond the imagination. I love strong bright colours, but if there is something like a paradise, I like to think it must be filled with pastels. This soft colours mean peace, tenderness and dreaminess to me.

Because of my thoughts about paradise, I combined the dip dye dress with it’s cute bow back detail with lace gloves and angelic jewellery. I had the paintings of Raffael in my mind when I choose my accessories and gave the outfit a touch of a madonna with unblemished hands.

I wish I would be invited to a wedding and would love to wear this outfit. But why not just wearing it out for any occasion? I believe that the perfect dress should be worn and not be stored till the perfect moment for it arrives. You make the moment perfect. I would even go out dressed like this just to buy a bottle of milk and turn a very ordinary moment into my pastel dream.

How do you like this romantic outfit my lovelies and do you love pastels too?

10 Lovely Fashion Finds

Miss Lovett, Glitter shoes, Candy Colours, Melissa
Red Lips Shoes: Vivienne Westwood x Melissa, Round Sunnies: Romwe, Crystal Ring: Nasty Gal,
Marshmallow Skirt: Topshop, Lightening Bolt Bag: Paul’s Boutique,
Flower Print Top: Lashes of London, Flamingo Phone Case: Etsy, Bow Top: Miss Lovett,
Glitter Shoes: Minna Parikka, Cat Face Bag: Sugar + Style

This is a selection of the items I like best in the online shops at the moment. A lot of prints, pastels and cute details included to spread fun.
I will ignore the darker autumn colours that are sneaking into the shops as long as possible. Down jackets? Nobody needs them, as long as there are light girly things spreading fun instead.
I definitely need the flower print top with the cute metallic bows and the Melissa heels. I think the lightning bolt bag is a winner too. I have a lot of fancy bags, but just a few bags for everyday use. This one could be the solution. I really have to restrain myself, not to order everything and I just hold back because I want to leave some pretty things for you.
What do you think, which of this items can’t be missing in the perfect wardrobe?

Monsters & Cats from Outer Space

I can tell you what monsters and cats form outer space have in common:
They are both rainbow-coloured.

Accessoires and makeup in bright pink are a must for this look.

The clutch is great to hide your face in case you encounter any paparazzi,

The cats are playing hide and seek behind the braces of the high-waisted skirt.

This comfortable jelly sandals in lilac are the perfect shoes for hot summer days.

This look is a mad liaison between the 50s and the 90s. A little bit of retro, a lot of craziness. Galaxy cats are floating through a rainbow coloured sky, while the cute furry monster twinkles with its long eyelashes. Nineties neon disco meets pink vintage chic. Yes, today I let styles clash together and mix wildly, what doesn’t seem to fit at first.

You’ve seen this high-waisted pinafore skirt before here, I styled it to a genuine retro look. I wondered if it would look good in a more quirky outfit as well and was surprised how well it goes together with the cosmic cat print. The tee is quite long and it doesn’t look good on my curvy body if I wear it loose, but tucked into the high-waisted skirt the silhouette is accented to flatter.

The true star of the outfit is the clutch: I wrote about British fashion designer Joanna Pybus before here and this is her first piece I own. I love the cute monster and always catch myself stroking it. I was tempted to not show my face at all in this post, because it’s just too much fun to hide my face behind my monster.

I’ll definitely have to go back for more Joanna Pybus items and recommend you to keep an eye on her too. I am curious what she comes up with in the future. I guess it must be cute and colourful, maybe it will be furry too…

Do you like this crazy look?
