So, after “all red”, here’s some “all black” again – with a hint of red! ;) I tried to do some kind of Dolce & Gabbana look, styling some actual lingerie as a going out look by adding jeans and a casual jacket. I bought this corset during my last Hamburg trip and it was the biggest surprise ever cause I never thought that I’d actually be able to wear one of APs beautiful corsets. Luckily, I spent a whole afternoon there with my friend and the lovely crew and we had so much fun playing dress-up doll with me. And yeah, it kind of escalated with me feeling so, so awesome in this corset that I simply had to buy it. But since I’m single and there’s only me to look at myself wearing it, I decided that I have to create a “daytime” (nighttime!) look with it so it can be seen by everybody without looking like I’m heading to the bedroom. I’ve already done a → similar look, but this one feels more perfect to me and I can’t wait to go out wearing this outfit. ;)

[Produktplatzierung | Product Placement]

We seriously need to talk about how many pants I’ve been showing you throughout the last months. Isn’t it crazy how C&A managed to make me like jeans? So much I even ordered one by myself in their SALE section (this time, an actual skinny jeans) plus another one at → Violeta by Mango (cause it’s embellished with pearls and you know how much I love pearls!) and I can’t wait to try them on.

Today’s outfit is → recycling one of the jeans you already saw. This is not a post of our collab (→ that’s why there’s the label “product placement”) but almost the whole outfit is gifted. Everybody who attended the C&A Collection Preview event in October in Düsseldorf, got one of the #WearTheChange t-shirts (as far as I know, they’re not for sale, sorry!). They’re supposed to promote C&A’s sustainability engagement, especially cause they’re the biggest producer using organic cotton. I believe that this is pretty much a great thing to support by wearing this t-shirt and therefore being a part of the change. ;) But I’d also like to interpret this shirt my way and say that for me, “wearing the change” in terms of plus-size means to be a change by wearing whatever I like. Probably kind of a challenge for some: tucking your t-shirt in your jeans. ;) I dare you to change and try it! ;)

Denim Culottes: Zizzi
Sandals: Arezzo
Bag: Gucci “Dionysus”
Earrings: H&M
Alternatives: Honey shirt,
Boohoo culottes, ASOS sandals,
ASOS bag

This is the last outfit with my old hair color and cut (and now I miss it a lot, gotta come back to this style soon, but at the moment I’m good with the golden brown). :)

I really like the current “Carmen” shirt trend – bare shoulders, ruffles and lace. I found → this lovely top at H&M and wanted to do something different, so I went for a combination with my → denim culottes and a slightly 70s-inspired look. The shirt is transparent, so you can choose whether to wear nothing (say: a nude bra) or something white or colorful underneath – I chose a nude bra (and still (!!!) have to find a good one without straps – it’s a sad story!) and love the look of it. :)

All in all, this is more of a casual look with the denim pants and flatform sandals – I kind of like these relaxed looks at the moment (even though we already shot this back in the middle of March, oops!) and I hope you like them too! :)

From → glamorous to casual in one blog post. ;) This is one of my everyday looks. Especially for traveling, I like it loose and comfy – jumpsuits are my favorite choice (even though you have to get naked if you want to pee, haha!) and of course there have to be sneakers. Because traveling with high heels is kind of unnecessary. ;) A cardi for when it’s cold (like on a plane) and comfy underwear like that bustier that may be seen (I mean: flashy pink – should be seen, right? ;)). Ready for takeoff!
