ALEXANDER MCQUEEN AT THE CORNER BERLIN EVENT

Yesterday I had the honour to attend the Alexander McQueen cocktail reception held at The Corner Berlin. Together with Jasmin I visited the event to enjoy some drinks to music and the 19 piece runway collection that was exhibited in the store in attendance of Sarah Burton. Yes, the creative director of Alexander McQueen was there in flesh. :)

Gestern hatte ich die Ehre die Alexander McQueen Cocktail Rezeption im The Corner Berlin zu besuchen. Zusammen mit Jasmin besuchte ich das Event, um ein Paar Drinks zu Musik und den Anblick der 19-teiligen Runway-Kollektion zu genießen, die dort im Beisein Sarah Burtons ausgestellt wurde.  Ja, die Kreativ-Direktorin Alexander McQueens war höchstpersönlich da.

The weather has suddenly changed in Berlin! It's the first time this year I can go out without tights and it's super hot here. Also I'm wearing my new silk blouse I found at Mango. I'm totally in love with this piece, because of it's drape in the front. The shorts is new as well.

Das Wetter hat sich ganz plötzlich in Berlin geändert! Es ist das erste Mal in diesem Jahr, dass ich ohne Strumpfhose rausgehen kann und es ist superheiß hier. Außerdem trage ich meine neue Bluse aus Seide von Mango. Ich total verliebt in dieses Stück, da es vorne so schön fällt. Die Shorts ist ebenfalls neu.

Seeing these pieces was magical and I fell in love with the clutches, that were exhibited as well.

Alexander McQueen is truly genius!

Diese Stücke zu sehen, war traumhaft und ich habe mich gleich in die Clutches verliebt, die auch ausgestellt wurden.

Alexander McQueen ist einfach ein Genie!

Not only did I get to touch and see the actual Alexander McQueen pieces up close, I also had look at the entire concept store. The Corner Berlin held runway pieces from Kenzo, Lanvin to Celine in store. Remember how I told you I found the Celine floral look crazy? The pieces are actually not that heavy on the eye in real life! It's crazy how I've gone from seeing designer runway pictures on style.com, reminiscing and dreaming about them to getting to see them in reality and being invited to their cocktail parties in just a year all thanks to this blog. <3

Nicht nur di, aber ich konnte mir auch den gesamten Concept Store ansehen. The Corner Berlin hielt Runway Stücke von Kenzo, Lavin bis Celine bereit. Erinnert ihr euch, wie ich euch gesagt habe, dass ich den Celine Floral Look viel zu viel fand? Die Stücke sind nicht ganz so aggressiv in der Realität! Es ist verrückt, wie ich von Designer Runway Bilder auf style.com sehen, darüber nachdenken und träumen bis hinzu sie in der Realität bestaunen und sogar Einladungen zu deren Cocktail Parties kam in nur einem Jahr, alles dank dieses Blogs. <3

SPONSORED VIDEO: RIVER ISLAND VOGUE DANCE OFF!

Hey Guys!

River Island has launched a new campaign called "River Island Vogue off" which I find very entertaining. It reminds me a bit of Ellen DeGeneres Dance Dares I so much adore (the Emma Stone Edition's got to be my #1!). River Island is one of my favourite England shops (shops I always visit when I'm in the UK. e.g Primark, Topshop, New Look..) because of it's great fashion.
River Island is always very up to date with trends. It's a pretty good high street fashion store. So "You've got the looks, but do you have to moves?" 

And you can become part of the campaign with their quirky Facebook app. In fact yesterday I have been procrastinating and instead of working, watching a version of me dance across my computer screen. It's really easy. All you have to do is upload a picture of you to the app or simply choose one of your facebook pictures, select a dance routine, hit the go button and watch yourself do the dance!
Psst! You can even make mini versions of your friend dance if you like to laugh at them.

So if you need a good laugh, why don't you try it :)

Hey ihr Lieben!

River Island hat eine neue Kampagne namens "River Island Vogue off"gestartet, die ich sehr unterhaltsam finde. Es erinnert mich ein wenig an Ellen DeGeneres Dance Dares, die ich so sehr liebe (die Emma Stone Edition muss meine #1 sein!). River Island ist einer meiner Lieblingsengland-Läden (Läden, die ich immer besuche, wenn ich dort bin z.B. Primark, Topshop, New Look..) wegen der tollen Mode dort. River Island ist immer sehr auf dem laufenden mit Trends. Es ist ein ziemlich guter High Street Fashion Store. Also, "You've got the looks, but do you have to moves?"

Und ihr könnt Teil der Kampagne werden mit deren witzigen Facebook App. Um  ehrlich zu sein, habe ich gestern statt zu arbeiten, eine Mini Version meiner Selbst beim tanzen über meinen Bildschirm zugesehen. Es ist ganz einfach. Alles was ihr tun müsst ist ein Bild von euch auf die App hochladen oder einfach eins von euren Facebookbildern auswählen, sucht euch eine Tanzroutine aus, drückt den Weiter-Button und schaut euch beim tanzen zu!
Psst! Ihr könnt sogar Mini-Versionen eurer Freunde zum Spaß tanzen lassen.

Also falls ihr was zum lachen braucht, das wäre mein Tipp :)



Here is what I looked like I So sah ich dabei aus:

Caught in the moment! Mini-Me's tribute to none other but the legend Michael Jackson. Yes, that's suppose to be Thriller!

Erwischt! Mini-Mes Tribut an niemand anderes als den legendären Michael Jackson. Ja, das soll Thriller sein!

PASTELS

Elie Saab Haute Couture spring 12 - Backstage

Forget color blocking. Forget bold colors. This seasons runways are all about pastel colors. Seems like everybody is into Cotton Candy and tired of neon or anything bright after a season that cried and practically screamed for colors. Color blocking is so last season! (*cough* That doesn't mean it will prevent me from wearing color or strutting the color blocking style if I want to.)
Feels like candy land!
Put on your pink tinted glasses and let fashion take you to the candy shop...dut dut. Maybe it'll let you lick the lollipop...

FEELING QUITE SENTIMENTAL TODAY

I've been having my ups and downs today. Dunno whats up, I guess I'm a little over-emotional today.
...Or blame it on post period hormone imbalance.
I haven't done an inspiration post in a way too long time, so here's what cheered my up today.

I read a really good blog post on Marie's Blog, where I also stole the pictures from. x)

Also I couldn't help smiling and when I watched this video. Not only is it a cover of one of my favorite feel good songs (I like to party to this alone in my room - you guys know what that looks like ;) ), but also I love how Leroy is simply having fun. He's truly gifted. And how cute is he?! :)
So why am I smiling out from ear to ear? Because you put a smile on my face, Leroy. Keep doing what you do.

I'm sporting my MAC Such Flare! Matte lipstick. J'adore very much! Oui oui mon cherie <3

I have an exam tomorrow, so wish me luck.
Good night guys, love you <3

MY FIRST MAC LIPSTICK EVER

MAC Such Flare! Matte

One of the perks of going to events, besides meeting great people and having fun(!), is that at the end there is always goodie bag. Mostly. And sometimes they are full of surprises, like the one from the Adidas Event, because that bag gifted me my first ever MAC lipstick. I've heard lots of good reviews about MAC and I've always wanted to try some of their products, but I never got myself to buy something. When I saw this lipstick in my bag my heart jumped of joy.
It's a beautiful dark red with matte finish and currently my favourite lipstick. I'm amazed at how long it actually stays on, because I have the type of skin that sucks up make-up quit quickly, so I'm used to reapplying lipstick often. With this one I don't.
Now that I've tried one product I really want to try more from MAC. How do you guys like MAC? And how do you find my new lippie? Well, I don't think I need to say that love it. :)
Have a great start into the new week!

•••

Eines der guten Dinge an Events ist, neben den tollen Menschen, die man dort kennenlernt und Spaß haben (!), dass es am Ende immer eine Goodiebag gibt. Meistens. Und manchmal befindet sich eine tolle Überraschung darin, wie zum Beispiel in der von dem Adidas Event, denn diese Goodiebag schenkte mir meinen allerersten MAC Lippenstift. Ich habe schon viel gute Kritik über MAC gehört und wollte auch schon immer mal Produkte testen, aber leider bin ich nie dazu gekommen. Als ich diesen Lippenstift in meiner Tasche sah, sprang mein Herz voller Freude.
Es ist ein superschönes dunkelrot mit mattem Finish und zur Zeit ist das mein Lieblingslippenstift. Ich bin echt überrascht wie lange der hält, denn eigentlich habe ich Haut die Make-Up recht schnell einzieht, und daher muss ich Lippenstift oft nachziehen. Mit dem muss ich das nicht.
Jetzt wo ich ein product getestet habe, möchte ich noch mehr von MAC ausprobieren. Wie findet ihr denn MAC so? Und was haltet ihr von meine  neuen Lippie? Ich denke nicht, dass ich erwähnen muss, dass ich ihn liebe. :)
Wünsche euch einen tollen Wochenstart!

DICK CLARK DEAD AT 82 'Massive Heart Attack'

DICK CLARK DEAD AT 82 'Massive Heart Attack'

EXCLUSIVE

Dick Clark -- famed TV producer and "New Year's Rockin' Eve" host -- died from a massive heart attack this morning ... TMZ has learned.

Clark's rep tells TMZ, the TV icon had been in St. John's hospital in L.A. after undergoing an outpatient procedure last night. Clark suffered the "massive" heart attack following the procedure. Attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful.

Clark was 82.

Clark's health had been on the decline since he suffered a significant stroke in 2004 -- forcing him to retire from his hosting gig at "New Year's Rockin' Eve," which he created in 1972. Ryan Seacrest took over in 2006. Dick has appeared on the show sporadically ever since. His final appearance was in 2011.

Months before suffering a stroke, Clark told Larry King he also suffered from Type 2 diabetes.

Clark got his first big break in 1956, hosting what was called "Bob Horn's Bandstand" ... what would later be renamed "American Bandstand." Clark continued to host and produce "American Bandstand" until 1989.

Dick hosted Miss USA from 1989-1993 -- and Miss Universe 1990-1993.

In addition, Clark also hosted a bunch of game shows -- like "Pyramid," "Scattergories," "The Challengers," and many more.

Clark had been inducted into practically every hall of fame on the planet -- including the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame.

Clark had also received a total of 5 Emmy Awards for his work, as well as a Peabody Award. One Emmy was a lifetime achievement award.

Clark was married 3 times -- and has 3 children from his first two marriages. He is survived by his current wife Kari Wigton.

"For now, Dick Clark ... so long."

Graphic video of teen being restrained, shocked played in court

DEDHAM (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - Video of a student restrained and shocked for hours at the Judge Rotenberg Center was played in court on Tuesday after a years-long battle by the center to keep it from the public eye. 

The video, which shows former resident Andre McCollins screaming, writhing in pain, and begging for help, was played at the start of McCollins’ trial against the Canton-based Judge Rotenberg Center. 

The Rotenberg Center convinced a judge eight years ago to seal the video, and the battle continued up until Tuesday morning when their attorneys asked Superior Court Judge Barbara Dortch-Okara to bar FOX Undercover’s camera from recording the video as it was played. 

Dortch-Okara denied the center’s request, clearing the way to give the public the first look at how these controversial electric shocks are used. The video was taken by one of the center’s classroom cameras.

McCollins, then 18 years old, was shocked 31 times that day in 2002. Lawyers for the center and its clinicians say it was part of the treatment he needed to quell his aggressive behavior. 

“These are dramatic tapes, there’s no question about that,” said attorney Edward Hinchey, who represents two of the Rotenberg Center’s clinicians. “But the treatment plan at the Rotenberg Center, the treatment plan that Andre had in place on October 25, was followed.” 

It was an emotional day for McCollins’ mother, Cheryl, who was in court watching as the beginning of her son’s ordeal was played.

Andre is shown seated at a desk inside a classroom as a staff member asks him several times to remove his coat. He stays still, apparently not responding or removing his coat, until he is given a shock.

He screams and falls to the floor, yelling as he tries to hide under his desk. He was eventually restrained face-down, a helmet on his head, without breaks for food, water or the bathroom. 

“I never signed up for him to be tortured, terrorized and abused,” Cheryl McCollins told the jury. “I had no idea, no idea, that they tortured the children in the school.”

She also testified what her son was like when she visited him three days later after the incident. She said she found him in a “catatonic” state.

“I couldn’t turn Andre’s head to the left or the right. He was just staring straight. I took my hands and went like this,” she said, waving them as if in front of his eyes. “He didn't blink.”

McCollins did get Andre to Children's Hospital that day, where he was diagnosed with acute stress response caused by the shocks. The jury also heard her testify about watching the video and hearing staff members laughing while her son was on the floor.

More video is expected to be played Wednesday as testimony continues.
