//These are from inside the art house Tacheles in Berlin, I find them particularly moving. At one point there was talk of tearing the legendary building down, but I think fortunately they have come to their senses and let this home to many artists and popular tourist attraction stand (??)

//Voo Store in Kreuzberg, Berlin has been voted the best boutique in the world by Super Store- in my opinion a well-deserved title. I stayed only a few hundred meters away when I was in Berlin and I made a point of popping in every few days to see what news things they had (in the last image I stopped by with some friends)...I was never disappointed by their interesting selections!
//Amongst other brands they have favourites such as Stine Goya, Acne, Dr. Martens, Wood Wood and Jeffrey Campbell. Take a look at their blog or their facebook page.
//I love the solid, single colour, the two different textures and the casually sultry off-the-shoulder top. I also love the thick black-rimmed glasses-I have been considering getting a pair, just so that I wear my glasses more often...
//To me the appearance of a place is more important than what it has to offer (no worries, I don´t apply the same criterium to people (!)...). The memory of this lunch is etched into my brain because of the beautiful bright colours that worked so well together...the food was less than memorable but that was kind of secondary to me. It may seem bizarre but it must derive from an desire to move in and see only spaces and things that are aesthetically pleasing...and places to take in food are no exception!
//I have been scarce of late, splitting my time between sitting in court and writing essays about things I don´t care much for. I will however review some of the fantastic things that have been happening at the Spring 2012 Ready-to-wear shows in New York and London shortly. For now I will leave you with a rather nondescript photograph of the leafy Maybachufer in Kreuzberg, not far from my place of residence in Berlin. Thanks to the many of you that pop in daily, I can´t imagine what keeps you coming :)
//How cool? Only in Berlin! The gentleman in clothed entirely in latex, from Bodycult. My favourite is this, take a look. Latex is super hot right now, always has been really, (see previous post) and I will be posting more of it soon...

//Here is the final result, the behind-the-scenes of which you have seen here and here. There´s a bit of a clean nineties look going on, and a grown-up sporty feel to it (hence Relaxed Biking). If nothing else I hope it provides you with some amusement for the day, maybe the week. Josie and I certainly had fun!
//My gorgeous friend Alex whom I miss dearly and her equally stunning cousin Ava rocking some basics. White tee and Ray-Bans...you can´t go wrong. Throw in a kick-ass hairstyle and it´s a winner. Or a super hot body and a snug black dress, et voilà!
//This is one of my favourite streets in Berlin, give it a visit when you´re in the city! It has become quite touristy, but the Cafés are superb, and the buildings are lovely.
//All the best for your adventures in France, Alex!

//Some more "behind-the-scenes" photos from the Relaxed Bikingshoot, which I am posting separately because they don't really go with the others. Ehhmm hello I would also like a gold-sprayed bike please.
//Another popular market in Berlin is the Turkish market where I got most of my groceries: delicious, fresh produce as well as materials and other odds and ends.
//In the photos is Laura from Dear Dorothywho paid me a visit in Berlin. Other than a super blog she also happens to have a beautiful clothing range which she gave me a perfect, perfect dress of (!)...I will photograph it soon. So long take a look at her range here and like her hereand be sure to notice her awesome cuff.
