Today’s look is a classic (and classy) date look – not that I’ve already worn that (no dates for me right now), but I’m pretty sure this could be a perfect look for a dinner date when things are getting serious. ;)

I actually started liking pink with → this look, so here we are with another pink style! :) While the other one is pretty cool and cozy, this one is rather romantic and elegant, that’s why I accessorized with my most precious pieces – my Chanel pearl peep-toes and the Bottega Veneta clutch (for some extra color, yay!).

I mostly show you my daytime or event looks and usually they’re rather classic (yet extravagant), but this time, I want to show you a sexy night-out look. ;)

Since I really loved Beth Ditto’s first collection, I had to buy a last piece of it. Especially because I’ve got → the “Lola” dress and know how amazing it fits and looks and that it is probably the only tight dress with a pencil skirt cut that works with my figure, I ordered the “Lola” skirt some time ago. Pencil skirts have always been something I’ve avoided because I know that their cut isn’t made for my waist-to-hip ratio and they look like a sack because they’re not tight enough at the legs for the real pencil skirt look. So when I got the dress and saw how great it was, I decided to get the skirt when it was finally a bit cheaper (since I got so many pieces of the collection, it was about time I saved some money). The whole collection is now on its final sale and it’s almost completely sold out (the skirt is only still available in sizes 24 and 26!), so if you waited for the lowest price to get something, you gotta order now before the next collection comes in. ;)

The body is definitely a daring piece and yes, I know that my boobs aren’t as perfect as many would like to see them when wearing such a low neckline. But let me tell you: I’m happy like this. I love this look, I love my breasts (even though they’re seriously not easy when it comes to bra shopping – but → here’s a shopping tip for everyone in or coming to Hamburg!) and I like showing them packed or rather unpacked like this. I don’t get why women are forced to look like in a magazine, where everything’s photoshopped in order not to look saggy or lumpy, where women are retouched to look “unreal” and unreachable so we think that we’re not okay as we are and have to go on diets, work out more than before and maybe even do plastic surgery because that’s the last option to achieve this look. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that I’m against the “optimization” of ourselves, but I want you to know and understand that we don’t have to feel forced to look like something we’re not. And we don’t have to feel bad when we look at those pictures of women who look “perfect” while we can be perfect for ourselves by simply accepting that we’re great – just as we are.

And since I’ve been writing about boobs: take care of yours. It’s breast cancer awareness month and even though I’m not doing a special post about it, I want to spread awareness and tell you to always check your breasts for knots and lumps. I like to do it under the shower, just take two minutes and palpate them for any abnormalities. It’s important to do this regularly so you know your breasts and feel when something’s wrong. When diagnosed early, breast cancer has good chances for cure, so take your time and care for yourself. Do it today and make sure everything’s fine!

And yet another stunning dress from Scarlett & Jo! I’m so happy and thankful that – as a brand ambassador – I get the chance to wear and show you so many beautiful dresses! I’m truly a fan and lover of the brand and proud to be one of the faces of S&J because this is a plus-size brand that actually celebrates diversity and femininity, they celebrate all figures and women and create clothing that lets us all shine even brighter than we already do. ;)

I have to prepare this post before the weekend (it’s Thursday now!) because I’ll spend it in London for an epic photo shoot event (well, now that the post is online it’s over already, and I’m sure it was awesome and of course I’ll write about it as soon as possible!) and all I can think of right now is that I’m super excited to meet so many different women of all ages, sizes and heights, and I know that we will all look amazing in S&J. :)

But let’s talk about → this dress now – it’s definitely my favorite of all times (even though I love the 2 in 1 dresses). I’m a huge fan of transparency and this blue mesh layered piece is so, so beautiful! It was pretty windy on that bridge at the harbor where we shot this outfit, so the skirt part is flying a lot, you have to remember that this isn’t the normal look (it got pressed against my body so much that you can even see my catheter and pump tube, haha!), but even like that it looks so lovely. The lower part actually has a loose cut and falls beautifully and flowy, you don’t need to worry that someone will see what you’re wearing underneath. ;)

I promised you → last time that there would be more outfits with this dress coming – here’s my favorite version, because you can see the dress in full bloom (what a pun, haha!) with not too many accessories (but my favorites!). I don’t think there’s much to say. I’m still very much in love with this dress, it’s just perfect. :)
We also already shot the third look I had planned with it and now I’ll have to be creative again if I want to post more looks with it. ;) Can’t wait!
