Well, “Poppies in Paris” sounds kind of weird, but sometimes, I’m not as creative with post titles as I’d like to be, haha! But since I called my older posts with this dress “Poppies and Daisies”, I wanted to have the flowers in today’s title – and Paris, it’s obvious, why I chose it. Even though this is clearly not the real Paris and totally not the real Eiffel tower. ;) But it was a lucky find – the whole location had so many surprises for us. We thought we’d go for some contrast with that lady-like dress and choose a not-that-nice background but went around the corner and saw this mini Eiffel tower. And only minutes later, that guy came around with his fancy car. Props to the universe for gifting us with these great picture enhancers for our “last” photo shoot together. “Last”, because it was officially the last one with Jacqueline while living in Franconia, but I’m pretty sure we will see each other again and hopefully create more amazing pictures together – maybe even in Hamburg! ♥

Just in case you want to see the other looks with this dress: “Poppies and Daisies I”, “Poppies and Daisies II” and “Poppies and Daisies III” – you can also find them at the end of this blog post, as usual, if there’s material for “style it differently”. And yes, this dress is clearly versatile and was the best dress ever to buy. If I were a dress, I’d be this beautiful one!

After all those super cozy winter looks, here’s a more extravagant and risky one. ;) It’s been almost 10 years since the Jimmy Choo x H&M collection launched in 2009 and I’m still wearing this jumpsuit from time to time. It has become a real classic in my closet and I’ll never give it away until it falls apart. :) It’s such a wonderful piece that keeps bringing me joy and all those sexy feels! 

You’ve already seen loads of “all black” looks here on the blog and it’s something I really wear a lot but this time, I added something special: a blazer! I really don’t wear them often, unfortunately, cause most of them don’t suit me as well as this one. I’m pretty sad that Murek Hamburg is not on the market anymore because they created so many beautiful clothes and this blazer is one of them. By the way: it’s not as shiny as in the pictures – we’ve tried some special edgy editing for these photos! Somehow, this styling asks for it, right? I love that dark look. :)

The shoes are new and directly from Brazil – my mom got them for me when she went there last time in October. These are my first kitten heel shoes and the thing is, I was always afraid to wear them cause I believed that those short little heels look weird on me, especially cause of my plus-sized body. But here’s the proof that they don’t look weird at all. :) It’s definitely best to try things before refusing them. ;)

My second outfit shoot with Katharina brings you this unusual combination! :) And even though it’s something new for me, I enjoy wearing it so much! I’ve worn it a lot because of my closet problem, sometimes exchanged the black shirt with a white t-shirt for an even more casual style, but this is my favorite combo – because I love the mix of super sexy with that cleavage and the casual look with jeans and sneakers. The kimono gives it that last fashionable touch and makes the whole outfit very special and I’m so glad I bought it cause it’s exactly the showstopper I needed in my life. :) Plus: who says, short people can’t wear long jackets? It had to be shortened, though. Haha!

You may have noticed that Katharina’s photos look a little bit different. This is because she’s a professional photographer and uses Photoshop (which I don’t even own and therefore never use!). I asked her to go slow with the retouching but, of course, I didn’t want her to lose her own style of working on the pictures. So this is just a little reminder that you might notice a difference. ;)

And here’s another new friend – the amazing jeans from sheego I wore on the catwalk at the → Plus Size Fashion Days! These pants are SO amazing, I was absolutely stunned when I put them on for the first time. I usually wouldn’t choose the biker style for myself, but I kind of liked it when I “had” to wear it and got used to it. ;) I actually wanted to buy these jeans in blue too, but they were sold out, so now I’m hoping that they come back so I can get another pair. ;)

These are petite length, which means: perfect for me, as I’m only 5’3” – I’m always happy when I find brands who do shorter lengths because that’s always a minus when I finally find a good pair of jeans or pants in general.

You may remember that in April, I went to the → blogger event at the Murek Hamburg headquarters (P.S.: they’ve got an online shop now!) and we got to choose our favorite pieces from the fall/winter collection. This coat is one of three gorgeous jackets I chose and it was also a bloggers’ favorite. I guess we all put it on our wish list. :)
