Today, I’ve got another festive look for you. Actually, it’s not only a look for festive occasions but also every day and every party. :) Thanks to → this gorgeous and basic jumpsuit.

I finally found the perfect black overall during Black Friday when it was already reduced and got it with 25% discount (unfortunately, it’s sold out in almost all sizes by now, but I’ve picked out a few other black jumpsuits that look very nice, you can find them below). It was pretty pricey, but totally worth it. Quality, fabric, cut – it’s just perfect and a great addition to my closet. By the way: one of my plans for next year is to sort out my clothes and get rid of a few pieces – I’ll maybe sell a few online and later on a curvy flea market, but of course I’ll announce everything when the time comes! ;)

Back to the actual topic: this could be my Christmas look for this year, or maybe my New Year’s Eve outfit – I don’t know yet. All I know is that I really want to wear this jumpsuit, because I totally love it. And there’s some space left for all the delicious food awaiting me around the holidays. ;)

I chose golden metallic and holographic accessories, my favorite duo from Gucci and after a loooong time, I’m finally wearing these beautiful earrings from ASOS again! Black and gold is very elegant, I think for special occasions it’s even nicer than combining black with silver (I think silver is more “everyday”, you know what I mean?).

I also splurged a bit more on my make-up: light gold, dark gold, extreme falsies and glitter (what’s XMAS and NYE without all the sparkling?). It’s actually a pretty easy look, just make sure that the eye liner is even (I know, there’s the first problem) and the falsies stay put (yeah, second problem – mine tried to leave after shooting in cold wind because my eyes tend to tear pretty fast in this weather… – I definitely need a better glue!). The light gold eye shadow is placed all over the lids and the dark gold only in the crease to give it all more depth, that’s it. Add some nude-rosé lip gloss, maybe even layer some more glitter on top (I’ve got this gorgeous lip gloss from an old Chanel collection, it’s transparent with tiny pink and blue glitter particles and was just perfect here!) and you’re ready to party!

Dress: Rue 107 “Serengeti”
Platform Sandals: Schutz
Earrings: SIX
Alternatives: New Look sandals,
ALDO earrings

I’m a #ruebabe now – a few weeks ago I received a package from the US with some gorgeous → Rue 107 clothes inside, including this incredible “Serengeti” dress. It’s been a little challenge to shoot summery clothes in fall, but I didn’t want to miss showing you how great this dress is. There are two more Rue 107 outfits in the making and coming, and there’s also a bikini left, but I don’t really know how to shoot and post it at the moment. No summer at all = no time for bikinis. And the weather has been very disgusting this weekend and won’t change for the whole week, so I guess I’ve got to feed you more fall-like outfits. :) But I really tried to integrate my summery stuff into our German fall and I hope that it inspires you to not pack all your dresses and skirts away yet – cause there’s always a way to wear them even when it’s cold! Okay, honestly, it was still pretty warm when we shot today’s pictures, so there’s nothing looking like fall, but the next ones, I promise! ;)

Dress: Lindy Bop “Agnese”
Platform Sandals: Luiza Barcelos
Hat: H&M Divided
Sunglasses: Dolce & Gabbana

Earrings: Dior “Mise en Dior”

Bracelet: Hermès
Alternatives: Windsor Smith sandals,
ASOS hat 

You can’t imagine how excited I was when I saw this dress on Instagram – I was so happy to finally find a dress that looked like the (reverse) design of my Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses’ box, which I totally love. When I bought the sunnies, the beautiful box made me so happy that it got a special place at home where I can always see it (by the way: I’m really talking about a box, not only this sunglasses case I’m using as a clutch in these pictures – but it has the same design). What I wanted to do ever since was wear a dress with the same print, together with these amazing sunnies. But only D&G had a collection with this print and we all know that there’s no chance for me to ever fit into one of their dresses, unless they do a plus-size line. ;)

Anyways: there was this afternoon when I was browsing through my Insta feed and spotted this Lindy Bop dress. I went to their online shop and ordered within a few seconds, not even thinking twice. And here we are: isn’t it perfect? I’m SO in love with it!

I wanted to create a very lady-like look with this dress, kind of 50s chic. I guess this blazer was the perfect choice because looking at the photos I feel a little “royal”, haha! ;) Of course, for fall season, I had to choose a hat that matches the whole look. And the nude sandals are my favorite souvenir from Brazil, they’re so perfect and go with almost everything, just like this outfit. I hope you like it as much as I do! :)

Dress: Kiyonna
Platform Sandals: Gucci
Clutch: Gucci
Earrings: Topshop
Alternatives: ASOS Curve dress, Carvela sandals, French Connection clutch, Johnny loves Rosie earrings, Love Rocks earrings

DEMeine drei Styles für das Wickelkleid von Kiyonna hab’ ich euch schon gezeigt (und es gibt sogar noch einen vierten Style, wenn auch nicht für das “Little Black Dress”, denn in rot habe ich das Kleid schon → in London getragen) – meinen Lieblingsstyle hab’ ich noch ein bisschen genauer für euch festgehalten. ;)

Immer, wenn mich jemand fragt, ob ich einen Styling-Tipp für dicke Frauen habe, nenne ich das Wickelkleid. Es gibt eigentlich für jede Figur einen passenden Schnitt davon und es zaubert immer eine schöne Figur – wo eine Taille ist, wird diese perfekt betont, wo keine ist, wird optisch eine hindrapiert. Meiner Meinung nach gibt es nichts Weiblicheres als ein Wickelkleid und eigentlich sollte jede Frau eins besitzen. :)

Für den Glamour-Look habe ich zwei wunderschöne Teile von Gucci dazukombiniert: die Sandalen und die dazu passende Clutch im Vintage-Metallicleder-Look mit absolut traumhaftem Holoschimmer (im richtigen Licht wirklich ohne Worte!) sind genau die richtige Portion Glamour, um ein wunderbares Outfit für den Abend zu haben. Ich bin noch ein bisschen weiter gegangen und hab’ meine liebsten Statement-Ohrringe aus London von Topshop dazu gewählt und trage sowohl auf den Lippen, als auch auf den Nägeln ein dunkles, beeriges Rot.

ENYou have already seen my three styles with Kiyonna’s black wrap dress (and there’s actually a fourth look, even though it’s not with a LBD, as I wore → this dress in red in London) – this is my favorite style and that’s why I want to show you more pictures of it. ;)

When people ask me which styling advice I have for big women, I always say: a wrap dress. There’s a matching cut for everyone and it always makes a great shape – it accentuates already existing waists perfectly but can also create a waist if you haven’t got one. In my opinion, there’s nothing more feminine than a wrap dress and every woman should own one. :)

For this glamour look, I combined it with two gorgeous Gucci pieces: the sandals and their matching clutch in a vintage-metallic look with the most beautiful holographic shimmer (it’s unbelievably beautiful in the right light!) are just the right amount of glamour for a wonderful outfit for the evening. I even decided to go one step further and added my beloved statement earrings by Topshop, and I’m wearing a dark berry red not only on my lips but also on my nails.
