I’d been sneaking around this dress for a few weeks (I didn’t even try it on, just kept putting my hands on it, thinking how nice it was) – a classic. Normally, I’m not that lucky, but this time I even got it for more than 70% off. Somehow the saying is right: “Nothing haunts us more than the things we didn’t buy.” – I’m pretty sure we all know this feeling. I always keep trying to be reasonable, rethink what I’m about to shop, and most times I leave the things at the store, only to come back home and get angry at myself for not taking them home with me. Consequence: I come back and the pieces are gone. But from time to time, lucky me is even rewarded with such little specials as “last piece”, “only one in my size” (most times both) or “super sale”. Just like with this dress. Last piece, my size and a very good price. Ka-ching! ;)

Now this beautiful silk dress from See by Chloé is mine and I love it so, so much! Silk has definitely become one of my favorite fabrics. I love the feeling of barely nothing on my skin! Plus, this dress has a gorgeous print and a great cut. I love the little cut-out at the upper part of my tummy, I love the back with the long bands to knot, I love the flowing skirt – this dress is just perfect and it doesn’t need a lot of company (accessories, you know). ;) I went for black sandals and no jewelry except for my favorite Dior earrings (besides the creamy white pearls, these black marble and silver mirrored little balls are the ones I wear all the time – still, I’m looking for all-black ones or something totally different and I can’t wait to see what versions of these earrings Dior will create in the future!). My little showstopper is this bright matte lipstick from Anastasia Beverly Hills – definitely a favorite. I need to get more of those great lipsticks!

DEIch bin ziemlich überwältigt – das hier war mein meistgeliktestes Outfit ever auf Instagram (zumindest die kleine Preview davon)! Allerdings muss ich zugeben, dass es definitiv auch zu meinen Lieblingsoutfits gehört. :) Den Jumpsuit hatte ich ja mittlerweile schon einige Male an – auch für Events am Abend war er schon öfter ein wunderbarer Begleiter. So auch letzte Woche am Donnerstag bei der “Cabaret”-Fashionshow von Maite Kelly für bonprix hier in Hamburg. Passend zum Thema hab’ ich mir natürlich auch outfittechnisch ein bisschen was überlegt und zusammen mit dem roten Jäckchen von Pucci (ist es nicht grandios – das war ein meeeeega Schnäppchen bei TK Maxx!!) eine Art “Zirkusdirektor”-Look gestylt. :)

Für das Shooting (das wir schon mal vorab gemacht haben) habe ich noch eine Sonnenbrille gewählt, die mit den goldenen Bügeln zu den anderen Accessoires passt – irgendwie stört es mich zwar nicht, wenn jemand Silber und Gold mischt und zusammen trägt, aber selbst ist es mir dann doch lieber, wenn alles eine Farbe hat. :) Die Haare haben auch mal wieder ein neues Styling bekommen (erstaunlich, wie viel mehr Spaß es mir macht, mit den kurzen Haaren was auszuprobieren!) und da das Outfit ja schon ziemlich im Vordergrund steht, hab’ ich mich beim Make-up eher zurückgehalten.

I’m really overwhelmed – this outfit is my most-liked outfit ever on Instagram (at least the little preview of it)! I have to admit that it’s definitely one of my favorite outfits too. :) I’ve already worn this jumpsuit a few times – and it is a great companion for evening events. Just like last Thursday at the “Cabaret” fashion show by Maite Kelly for bonprix here in Hamburg. I wanted to match my outfit to the motto of the evening and created kind of a ringmaster look with my red Pucci jacket (isn’t it great – this has definitely been my best TK Maxx bargain!). :)

For the shooting (which we already had the weekend before) I chose some sunglasses with golden frames that perfectly go with the accessories – somehow, I don’t care about others mixing silver and gold, but for myself I prefer only using one color. :) My hair got a new styling (it’s fascinating how much I like to try new things with my short hair!) and as the outfit is already the center of attention, my make-up is very simple.
