I’ve known the girls and boys from → Wundercurves for quite some time now, but we only managed to do a collab now. The wait was worth it, cause I got to choose this amazing outfit and show you a special look for winter! :) 

I really like the idea behind Wundercurves – you get to choose from almost all plus-size shops on one place. By today, they’ve already got one of the biggest global selections of plus-size fashion. Plus, you can get inspired by their very own magazine and they’ve got this super cool “Insta Shop” where you can find looks from other plus-size bloggers and directly shop them (or similar pieces). And if you want to be a part of it, just add #Wundercurves to your outfit posts on Instagram. ;)

They asked me to do a winter outfit and I decided to search for something that’s cozy but also has that special twist (you know me, I can’t do anything without adding something a little different!). Of course, it had to be a coat and since “teddy coats” are pretty trending right now, I went for this tri-colored version which is perfectly cozy and warm for those cold wintery days. First, I thought about adding a nice sweater plus jeans, but since I’ve been showing you loads of pants in the last months, I chose a comfy knit dress. It’s pretty tight, I know, and I wish I could’ve gone one size up but XXL was the biggest size available and I must say that this is definitely not a 2X, it’s very much smaller.

For my special twist, I added the red overknee boots I’ve already told you about. Of course, the actual look I had in mind with them, is still coming, don’t worry, but don’t they look amazing in this combo, too? I think they’re just that special extra the look needed to become one of those typical Lu styles. ;)

As I promised you in my last post about the PSFD, here comes my first look with a dress from Paprika. I fell in love with it the second I saw it at the marketplace and had to buy it as soon as I got back home. I actually wanted to shoot it with a hat (you all know me: fall = hat season) but then I liked it even better with that crazy hair style (loads of dry shampoo and hair spray but I haven’t used a curler!).

I also love to be back at wearing overknee boots and got a new pair for this season – bold red ones which I want to wear with the other Paprika dress I bought! ;) Can’t wait to shoot the look! It’s gonna be so cool (at least in my mind). :)

Today’s post could also be named “How to wear your summer dress in winter” – because this is one way to do so. :) Scarlett & Jo’s light and easy pocket dresses aren’t the best choice to wear right now because it’s horribly cold outside (especially when you’re standing on top of a parking lot at the airport – it definitely doubles the cold thanks to the wind!). But there are a few ways to leave your summer dresses in the closet and make them wearable in cold temperatures.

My look adds a warm chunky knit cardigan, warm tights and overknee boots. And for that extra splash of color: my bag love, the fuchsia “Miss Dior” (it always makes me happy when I wear it – also because of the color!), and green earrings, plus some bold make-up. ;)

This time, I was smart enough to get → the dress one size smaller than usual. I’m wearing a UK 14 because I learned that this cut (you already know it from → this dress and also → this one – I just wore them off the shoulder because they were loose enough) is very loose around the bust and since mine isn’t that big, I can size down for a better – the actual – fit. Good idea, because now it really works for me! ;)

I’m a huge “American Horror Story” fan – currently watching season 5 (“Hotel” – and Lady Gaga really deserved that Golden Globe for her role as “The Countess”!) and I love it! My favorite season is “Freak Show” and I’m probably the biggest fan of Jessica Lange as Elsa Mars. These days I was actually pretty sad about the death of David Bowie because I fell in love with → Jessica’s performance of “Heroes” – and the song itself –  on the show.
But for this outfit, I chose season 3, “Coven”, the one about the witches, all dressed up in black for important occasions and looking pretty rad. I kind of mixed the style of the series with that of another one called “Scream Queens”, which, to be honest, I’ve not watched yet but seen a few pictures and kind of liked the styling (that’s where the fuzzy jacket of my look came from). :)

So that’s how my “AHS: Coven meets Scream Queens” look was born. I’m wearing a basic flared dress paired with my Chewbacca (let’s bring in a little Star Wars too!) jacket and overknee boots. For that special touch (you already know I like to make all-black looks more special with an extra something), I finally wore a head wrap again (it’s a huge vintage silk scarf from my mother), my red Gucci bag (with a shortened strap) and added shiny silver details – the belt and my favorite sunnies.
Yes, that’s a very extravagant outfit – and that’s why I love it even more. :) Some time ago I read this quote on Insta: “Dress like you’re already famous!” – my motto for 2016 and the future. :) There’s no reason to hesitate about dressing up whenever I feel like it, and it just reinforces my words from 2015 even more: wear whatever you want, whenever you want!
