Lunch in Berlin: TheEats

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

The newest shopping addition around Zoologischer Garten is the concept mall Bikini Berlin, “..filled with a collection of carefully curated and compatible boutiques”. Of course there have to be some culinary destinations around the mall and one of them is TheEats – a deli, restaurant, bar and terrace extending over three floors. With my fellow student Swenja I met for lunch at their deli, located on the ground floor (restaurant and bar are a both). They serve a lot of different dishes. You can chose between pizza (also quarters or half ones), pasta (starting at € 6,50), sushi, salads and burgers with sweet potatoes (€ 9,50). We both went for their salad offer. From a variety of salads you were able to choose four different ones, costing € 6,50 in total. In addition you could add meet, chicken, vegan or fish bites – each costing € 1,00 extra. It’s nice to put your own dish together! Breakfast is also available. However it wasn’t that easy to understand their system but you can certainly ask their staff for help. …

Marrakech Photodiary I

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

Marrakech is the most wonderous, wild, beautiful and exciting city in Morocco. You only need to blink and there is another thrilling sensation just around the corner. Still, it is a city of contrast – the big place Jeema al Fna would be sleepy throughout the day but it awakes at night when there are hundreds of food stands offering numerous delicacies. For fashion victims the Souks (huge moroccan market complex offering predominantly leather goods, spices and lamps) are a must – if you know the right places you can shop suede leather bags, scarfs and blouses at low cost but high quality. Always talk to the people working at the stands and only buy where you feel comfortable. Marrakech as well has a new city that has many lovely places to offer, for example the Grand Café de la Post, which has a unique atmosphere as well as a sophisticated menu. Even tough one must be prepared to see snake charmers, some meat stands that do not seem to offer the freshest products, a completely …

Morocco is simply one of my favorite travel destinations ever. This country has a raw beauty hat isn’t easily found anywhere else.

Peach and Lace

One of the most difficult trends this season probably is the adequate styling of leather skirts and pieces. We love to see them on the runway but somehow styling them in our daily lives can be quite a challenge. Girls need to watch out that leather does not look too sexy or somehow inappropriate, it’s as simple as that. Therefore, I went for this perfectly smooth, light peach colored leather skirt from Zara, which has the perfect balance between stylish, sexy and classy. Skirt – Zara (sale!) Blouse – Sir Oliver Necklace & bracelet – Sence Copenhagen Shoes – Softclox Bag – Liebeskind

BFW S/S 2015: Photo Diary Lavera Showfloor

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

Sustainability is a topic that concerns all of us and which slowly but surely has found its way into the fashion scene. I think especially nowadays, in times of shocking incidents like the Bangladesh factory collapse, we are more concerned about our clothes’ origin and finally start to ask questions about material, production, working conditions or methods. It is most important that fashion labels react to this customer sensibility hence green fashion is more trendy than ever. The lavera Showfloor, which takes place on occasion of the Berlin Fashion Week, is one of the most important events when it comes to so-called green glamour. On three show days, laver shows designers all over the world that all have one thing in common: their collections are not only highly fashionable but also made under fair circumstances and with sustainable materials. This summer, I was working at the lavera Showfloor and intact responsible for finding these 11 international designers, who fulfill ethical but also fashionable standards. It was definitely a challenging job but I enjoyed every minute …

Festival Style

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

A simple slip-on dress in black is always a good choice for a festival. Add some pretty silver jewellery, comfy sandals and a bright nail-polish! Et voilá – ready you are. If you want to wear make-up choose waterproof one, you simply never know what the weather will be like. Also elaborated hair styles are a waste of time.
