Shopping & Food in Berlin: The Store

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

The Store in Berlin is a unique concept, which is mixing gastronomy, co-working and shopping. It is a hang-out for startup founders and freelancers, spending their day working on their MacBooks and sipping cappuccinos. It also is a store for modern street style, decorative items, books and music. And lastly, if that wasn’t enough already, it’s a restaurant for breakfast and lunch. The lunch always consists of five different salads, that go together in a bowl and are always healthy and delicious. I can also highly recommend their cold-pressed juices, which are actually made by hand and on-site in a small juicery truck – try the Beetroot, Pineapple, Ginger!

Nuori Travel Essentials

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

We have been trying out these Nuori travel essentials the last weeks and simply loved the products. I especially like the foaming cleanser, which basically smells like fresh fruit and cleanses your face gently with a soft foam. The special thing about Nouri is, that all the products have a date when to start using them. Since many other beauty products only have an expiration date, they sit in the shelves for ages and no one thinks about how many ingredients may also fade or loose their benefits over time. That is why Nuori products have a start-using-by date AND an expiration date, in order to make sure that the products are the freshest on the market! We think that is an amazing concept that no one has really thought about before. In cooperation with Nuori

In Summer, there is nothing better than being able to just throw on alight, colorful, swinging summer dress! I fell madly in love with this one by Desigual that we found during their #DesigualSale. I already know where I’m going to wear this beautiful little dress – vacation plans have been made! So happy to be in the sun soon. Dress – Desigual In cooperation with Desigual

My Desigual Summer Pt. I

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

There’s nothing better to show off your summer tan than with a white, lacey dress! I’m absolutely in love with this find by Desigual. It’s perfect to feel like you’re on vacation, even when you’re already back to work and everyday life. It’s best combined with some wedges or flat sandals and maybe a light leather jacket if the weather is unpredictable as it is in Berlin at the moment… Dress – Desigual Leather Jacket – Mango Shoes – Mango Bag – Zara In cooperation with Desigual

Bachelor Thesis: Finding a topic

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

As the title of this post revealed I will give you a little insight into my university life. Since I just finished my bachelor thesis and handed it in last week I figured out it would be nice to give some support to those who still have this challenge ahead. One of the hardest things in the process of setting-up the bachelor thesis is finding the topic you want to focus on. Nevertheless there are some elements you can follow in order to find the right topic. 1. Choose a topic you like by creating a mind-map This seems to be a simple advice but its so essential. You will work on this topic for months and therefor it needs to be something you are happy about. Sometimes the best way to evaluate your ideas is to create a mind-map in order to structure your thoughts. 2. Do some research If you were able to limit your selection to three to one topics its time to do some research. Check the literature statues, read articles …

The magic of working at the theater

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

Since nine years I have been a part of the Dance Academy Marita Erxleben. Each year we create a ballet inspired by a fairy tale. Over the years this has become a true tradition for me and since 2013 I started to snap some backstage pictures during rehearsals and performances. I love pictures taken from the audience area but my favorites are those that take you behind the main stage. This is the actual location where all the magic happens in my opinion. You can feel the tension, the excitement and the passion everyone shares. Here you see moments of joy, anxiety and anticipation. If you ever get the chance to work at a theater, take it. Here you are able to experience new roles and just escape the daily life.

Both are refreshing and the ideal travel companion since they also come in hand luggage sizes (smallest for women is 15ml, for men 30ml). In cooperation with HeadspacePR and Mexx

Coffee in Milan: Bar Luce

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

Throwback to a wonderful time in Milan. Of course I had to visit Bar Luce, part of the Fondazione Prada und fully designed by creative genius Wes Anderson. I can actually say, I felt more like being part of a colorful film set like the one of Grand Budapest Hotel that being in a café in Milan. But that is exactly what makes Bar Luce so exciting – it is so otherworldly, it transports you into a different place and you can somehow fade out day-to-day life.

Indulge House Fashion Week Special

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

We’ve always been fans of all the blogger events that take place during Berlin Fashion Week and are not designer’s shows but rather crafted especially for bloggers. Last Wednesday we had the pleasure to attend the Indulge House Fashion Week Special at AMANO rooftop. It was a relaxing morning, with a Pilates session by Isabelle, who is a former ballerina and personal Pilates teacher from Berlin. Afterwards we enjoyed some food by superfoods & organic liquids Berlin and also various lovely brands, like Eins Berlin crafted jewellery and Nuori skincare products. Thank you for this event!
