Fashion is fun – at least that’s how I see it. I love trying new things, getting experimental and mixing stuff, being someone else every day. One day I’m girly and retro, the other day I wear sporty sneakers and look rather casual. Actually, I don’t know how to call today’s style, it’s definitely a crazy mixture: sheer body, casual dress and suede sneakers with a metal toe cap. It’s not a typical Lu style but I totally love it, even though it’s been hard for me to wear sneakers with my dress. Gosh, I think whenever someone asks me about fashion faux pas, I always mention white boots and pairing sneakers with dresses – but normally I mean floral summer dresses, at least this one is pretty minimal and therefore not THAT bad, right? And even white boots can look pretty cool, depends on your style and your attitude! ;)

So, how did this happen? I wanted to find something different for my sneakers – I fell in love with them the second I spotted them online. Actually, I love sneakers, I just don’t really like wearing them, I think they don’t look that good on me. But there are so many wonderful designs – like this one. That’s why I wanted to give them a special “setting”. :)

I also wanted to style the dress in another way – you’ve already seen my Kardashian version → here, very feminine and curvy, so today it’s totally casual. Since it’s pretty cold already, no sleeves were no option, and with a jacket the dress looked totally awkward, don’t know why. But I had the idea of wearing a body underneath – with some special sleeves. On top, I found this hat from my grandmother last time we visited my parents and thought it was pretty cool, and it made the outfit complete.

I think it’s really something different, especially if you know me and my looks, but that’s the point: be creative! That’s what fashion is for. It’s okay to stay in your “comfort zone”, it’s okay to prefer flattering clothes and it’s okay if you don’t want to get crazy, but: it’s also okay to break out of your “comfort zone”, it’s okay to say “eff flattering” and wear whatever you want, and it’s absolutely okay to get crazy. There are no rules, no limits, no actual fashion faux-pas. You’re free!

That’s the last outfit we got to shoot before Hamburg decided to switch into rain mode for, like, forever. The moment I stood in position, ready to shoot, it was like the world decided to show us how much rain was saved in those dark clouds. People walking by the bus stop in front of me (and those sitting in the buses – hello!) must have thought that I’m totally insane, but work is work, right? After the shooting I felt like I had been dipped in a pool backwards – got a hot cup of tea at home and wrapped myself up on the couch. So obviously what I said a few posts ago really happened: more rain, more wind, more darkness and more “I don’t want to go outside!” – and why should I? To get soaked, catch a cold and stay alone at home in bed with loads of tea and medicine? I don’t think so! Let’s hope for some better weather soon, I’d love to shoot again next weekend! :)

Today, I’ve got an idea for a party look for New Year’s Eve for you. Last time going outside with bare legs. I hope that you all will party inside most of the time if you wear such an outfit, cause I know now what it feels like to get into the typical bad weather on NYE (at least I don’t know other weather that night, I guess all my life it was raining at midnight…) – and you don’t want to do this, believe me. :) You better pack an extra pair of warm boots, haha! ;)

Anyways: Christmas and NYE are the best time to shine and sparkle, that’s why I got this dress and paired it with some fun blue heels. Since it’s definitely going to be cold outside (that’s a fact, unless you’re celebrating at the beach – and I’m already jealous!), I added a fuzzy jacket and fixed it with a belt. Of course, it makes me look like a tiny thick teddy bear, but I guess everybody looks a bit fatter in such jackets, right? And it’s about having fun with your clothes and I definitely like the combination – it’s a statement! But as the dress looks great alone, you’ll get to see a few pictures of me freezing in the rain, just for you. And please excuse the poor quality of the pictures, it got darker and darker with every click. Sad story, I really wanted to shine but had no chance against the clouds… :(

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! ;)

Well, this could probably have been a great look for Halloween – just add a saucy lace mask and you’re good to go! But since Halloween is already over, this is my interpretation of a sensual “Femme Fatale” look. This dress emphasizes a woman’s curves perfectly and has a cut-out just on the right spot. I really love the fabric, it’s a bit heavier and therefore falls very nicely. It’s my favorite dress of the collection, perfect for a very classic look that you can wear in a formal or sexy way – it’s up to you! ;)

For my version, I went for almost nothing around, just a pair of classic high heels and only a few jewelry pieces like my black and silver “Mise en Dior” earrings and my everyday companion, the “Clic Clac” bracelet from Hermès in greige and white with silver hardwear. And to pick up the lipstick: my beloved “Arty Ring” from YSL in dark silver with a purple stone.
All in all, this is a very dark look, considering that I chose a very dark lipstick (it’s not black, it’s an extremely dark purple!). I could have chosen a red one but I wanted to do something different. ;)
