I know, I know, it’s super cold these days – at least it wasn’t, when we took these pictures. :) And the jacket is kind of warm plus the overknee boots are a good choice to keep your legs warm when  you’re wearing a short jumpsuit. To be honest, I’m still no fan of shorts cause they always go up between my thighs and I have to keep pulling on them all the time, but they look so nice! Haha!

Unfortunately, none of the pieces seem to be available anymore (most of them are already old, though), so I searched for some alternatives and you can find them below.

This winter, I kind of fell in love with striped sweaters. There’s → this cashmere piece and another one from the same brand that I found at the SALE and there’s today’s “Crazy Stripes” sweater from GAP, which is also a SALE find (call me the queen of bargains – whenever I shop, I always find a voucher or reduced pieces or even try to negotiate a bit, in a respectful way!) and therefore not available at the moment, sorry! I found a few nice alternatives, though:

 

Those bright rainbow stripes look great with anything, but I felt like the colors need to pop and so I went for all black around the sweater – plus a bright neon pink lipstick. Isn’t that a great combination? I’m also so, so happy to finally be able to wear my favorite hat again. It kind of looks weird with short hair but now it’s perfect again! ;)

This outfit would definitely also work with sneakers (like → those) but I feel like especially with my beloved Chewbacca jacket (at the end of this post, you can find other styles with it), it looks a little bit better with heels.

It’s been some time since you last saw me with my glasses on – so after the pants I thought it would be nice to bring them back for a special post. They’re on my nose every day but I somehow prefer not to wear them for our shoots. This time, they were exactly what the look needed to be perfect. ;) I guess I should show them more often – glasses can definitely be a great accessory, even if you don’t need them (I do, I’m kind of a mole without them). ;)

But the main actor of today’s post is the plush jacket. I don’t support fur and actually, wearing fake fur isn’t the best idea either because even fake fur can sometimes be real fur and you should definitely check first before you buy or just don’t do it at all. I don’t want to make this post a discussion about morals because I don’t judge people who like fur and I don’t see myself in a position to judge because I eat meat and wear leather, so it’d be kind of hypocritical to do so. Still, I believe that we’re living in a world where fur is pure luxury and not needed – and it is so wrong how mankind “produces” fur products. Anyways, fake fur is definitely a better option if you can’t do without it, and yes, as a style blogger I do like the look of fake fur in winter – especially when it’s such an amazing jacket.

When I went to the market place of → this year’s PSFD, I saw → myPePita’s booth and the jacket instantly caught my eye. It’s such a wonderfully different color combo, a very light gray with a kind of blueish glow, mixed with red and brown and these bold black tiger-like stripes. It’s a statement piece for sure! And the plushy feel ist so soft and great, you won’t even want this to be real fur, it’s more like a cuddly teddy bear that’s warming you. ;) I’m so in love with that jacket and after checking the online store, I found many other pieces I really like – you should definitely have a look at myPePita because it’s another stylish plus-size shop (from EU size 42) which offers actual fashion! And if you feel like ordering, I’ve got something for you – get 15% off your order by using the code Lu1116 at the checkout. :)

First, I wanted to do a look with a flared black dress, but then I decided to do another outfit with my beloved “Lola” dress from Beth Ditto. I love the combo with the dove-gray dress and black details, it’s definitely more interesting than the obvious choice, which is black. Also, it’s good to wear something tight underneath the huge jacket. It will still show your body shape. For some extra attention on the waist (another figure saver and hourglass figure creator, even when you can’t see the whole silhouette), I added a black belt.

DEJaaaa, da ist er endlich – der Schnee. :) Bisher war der Winter hier in Hamburg ja eher dürftig, mehr nass und herbstlich als weiß und winterlich. Am Wochenende war es dann aber endlich soweit und ich hab’ mich über die weißen Flocken sehr gefreut. Auch wenn Schnee immer Chaos bedeutet, ist er ja optisch schon ein kleines Highlight und ich bin gespannt, ob wir ihn nochmal etwas länger zu Gesicht bekommen werden als nur für zwei Tage (heimlich, still und leise bin ich ja doch ein kleine Fan davon, auch wenn mir blogoutfittechnisch wärmeres Wetter doch ein bisschen lieber ist – lässt sich einfach leichter fotografieren, aber dafür ist das doch heute wirklich ein toller Fotoeffekt, oder?).

Aus Berlin habe ich von Zizzi diesen hellblauen Midirock mitgebracht und hatte auch direkt eine Kombi mit Gelb im Kopf. Meine Chewbacca-Jacke kam erst dank des Wetters spontan dazu und um aus dem eigentlich doch sehr frühlingshaften Look etwas Wintertaugliches zu machen, habe ich mich für den Hut (ganz praktisch, um den Schnee dann nicht im Gesicht zu haben) und Schnürboots entschieden. :)

ENThere it is, finally – snow! :) Until now, winter in Hamburg hasn’t been very wintery, but on the weekend I had the pleasure to shoot outside with these wonderful white flakes. :) Even though snow always means a lot of chaos, I really adore the view of white landscapes – and it makes a great scenery for pictures, right? ;)

In Berlin, I got this light-blue midi skirt from Zizzi. I had to combine it with yellow! Thanks to the weather, I went for my fuzzy Chewbacca coat and in order to make this actually very spring-like look more wintery, I wore a hat (good for keeping your face snow-free!) and lace-up boots. :)
