//208/ Dress: Free People

Free People Lookbook

Issue: October 2011

Photography: Guy Aroch

Model: Julia Stegner

//Meet the beautiful, German Julia Stegner, who has been around for a while and almost classifies as a supermodel (I think??). I´m not too mad about the clothing and I really don´t like the lame captions (most of which I omitted) but I do love the hair. 

//I no longer believe in salons so this will serve as inspiration for the box-dye venture that awaits, which- if nothing else- will provide some amusement for friends and family...yikes.

//207/ Streetstyle 029

Oderberger Straße, Prenzlauerberg, Berlin

//A stylish (non-Berliner) in my favourite street in Berlin. What cool printed pants. And if I´m not mistaken those are the Cutler & Goss sunglasses that I mentioned here.

//206/ SS2012: Alexander Wang

Alexander Wang SS2012RTW

//Of the younger, contemporary designers Wang is definitely one of my favourites. In his last show I particularly liked the 80s inspired patterns and materials and the super cool prints (see the first two outfits from the left). I love the sporty direction he takes and hello how cool is that flower-print helmet?

//205/ Vogue Australia: Paradise Found

Publication: Vogue Australia

Issue: November 2011

Photography: Nicole Bentley

Styling: Meg Grey

Model: Alina Baikova

//Despite that grossly unjust game of rugby on Sunday, I have to admit it: Vogue Australia is in a league of its own. I dont know about the other content (it can´t be that great jugding by the corny captions), but the editorials it produces are truly superb. Here (another) one with lanky Ukrainian beauty Alina Baikova. Ahhh yes summer is on its way.

Jammie Plaza, University of Cape Town

//Well-dressed people on the university campus are few and far between. Here is one of the few...I like the coat and shoes and love the headphones...super.

//203/ Designer: Clare Vivier

Clare Vivier - Foldover Clutch

//I found the perfect oversized, grey foldover clutch made of soft leather at the magical Voo Store in Berlin, only to tell myself that I should wait for it to go on sale (major mistake, I didn´t get it and have been regretting it ever since). I have searched Cape Town for an adequate equivalent, but to no avail. And then I found Clare Vivier´s bags, which are simply perfect in every way. All of them. Take a look at her shop and her blog. Yup, I may just order one. Ideally one in each of the above colours but that, unfortunately would be somewhat excessive.

//In other news, what do you think of the new layout? And font? I realise no one likes change and all that but I feel it is necessary. It´s only temporary, for now anyway. Input would be appreciated.
