PRIMARK OPENING

Before I go all fashion week on you, I want to tell you about the Primark opening. Primark finally open its doors to a two story center full of shopping. Along with other bloggers and Primark representatives as well as press, I was invited for the Pre-opening, which meant I was allowed early admission, treated to a breakfast, listened to a speech by the founder of Primark (Kudos to her German skills!) and given a tour of the store, before the official opening at 11. o'clock.
With the 50€ gift voucher I found in my goodie bag I went shop shop shopping! There was no turning back at that point. Haha!
It was nice to see a million familiar blogger faces and the Grayling Team was so kind as usual.
Welcome to Berlin, Primark!! Finally..

OUTFIT: BREAD & BUTTER BERLIN 2012

During Fashion Week I found a free minute to check out the Bread&Butter fashion fair. I was really looking forward to come by since the last last visit (read: running through the entire place in search for the G-Star booth for the G-Star Show in attendance of sweet Clemence Poesy and running back out to catch my ride to be escorted back to the fashion week tent for another show) left quite an impression. I went together with Carina and Nisi, who was kind enough to capture my look of the day for me.
The Bread & Butter is a enormous fair with brands like G-Star, Mavi, Desigual, Adidas, Onepiece etc. being represented. It's a street style denim trade show and you must definitely come with loads of time on your hands to check out the fair.

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.

Inside The Corner Berlin, Alexander McQueen's runway pieces:

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
