Coffee in Berlin: Is this even McDonald’s anymore?!

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture
On Ku’damm Berlin a new McDonald’s Restaurant- wait, this is wrong, is it a diner? Café? Take Away?I cannot tell anymore- opened. This place does not look like a fast food restaurant at all, more like a pretty, romantic Café. It is equipped with couches, candle lights, chandeliers, book shelves…
Long since, McDonald’s is not only fast food anymore, it is fit salads plus, slim and smiling Heidi Klum, or McCafé- a specialist in coffee. I seriously have to admit that the McDonald’s merchandizing and commercialization department made a very good job of it. A metamorphosis from unhealthy fast food to healthful, fresh salads and freshly made fruit smoothies is definitely a huge step in corporate philosophy. Nevertheless this is the only way for a big company to survive: adapt to the changes of its market and consumption of the new generation. I prefer cheeseburgers anyway! Ha!




Autumn Outfits Part I

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture
Today was an example for a beautiful autumn day- sunny, cold, leaves all coloured. Unfortunately today seems like an exception at the same time. Germany has to face low temperatures and rain to no end. We cheer us up with watching the newest trends on http://www.vogue.de/fashion-shows – with some latte macchiato and cookies at the best. AND with huge, cosy, soft, cuddly pullovers.

Blue Bag

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture
This bag (bought at River Island) is multitalented. You can wear it either as a shoulder bag, as well as a clutch or crossover. Additionally blue is one of the major trend colors this autumn winter. Since it has finally arrived, we can only comfort ourselves with the right accessories for cold days.




Bristol

Home sweet home!

Yesterday I got back home from a one week class trip to England. We stayed in a youth hostel
in Bristol. Since living in England for a rather long time I never have been to Bristol and
was really stunned by it’s art scene.I guess some of you maybe know the street artist Banksy or have seen some of his work without knowing who the artist is. He is from Birstol and of course there is a lot of his work
around the city. We did a little tour through the streets and spotted the one or other
Banksy art work.

Here are just some pictures of the whole trip.

Shopping in Berlin: Wald

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture

 

What do you get, when a stylist and a model team up?
Yes, a super stylish store in Mitte.
Dana Roski and Joyce Binneboese are the owners of the store “Wald” in Berlin. It is located close to Hackescher Markt, an area crowded with fashionable people (so, actually the perfect location for a fashion store if you look at it). Nevertheless since a longer time the stores around here have become a bit more upper price class. That’s why the two girls want to keep their own price tags at a “low” but not cheap level. You will find a range from 15 Euros up to 500 Euros. It is not like walking into Acne and wincing because you can’t afford anything.
Their style is a good mixture and you find a lot of Scandinavian designers such as Carin Wester. Their intention was to create a store were you feel relaxed and cool and that the clothes reflect what they would wear themselves. Your are warmly welcomed to come in and try everything on.
I myself fell in love with a red pair of leather pants, cosy knitwear in a soft creme colour and some silk blouses. I will be back for sure!

Outdoor in Berlin: Berlin Festival

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture
The Naked and Famous
Pantha du Prince
Last saturday me and my friend went to the Berlin Festival. The music festival was located in Tempelhof, Berlin’s former airport. Huge stages were built up in the hangars and many food stands were offering festival delicacies like veggie burger or pasta. However the atmosphere was great- people just wanted to hear good music and have a good time. While sunset everyone sat on the ground, dipped in sun beams, relaxing. Our personal hightlights of the night (yes, there were several!) were Florrie (soon I’ll do a whole post on her, she has been so impressive), of course Naked and Famous, as well as Pantha du Prince and lastly Boys Noize- they rock!

Nightlife in Berlin: Bars and Clubs

Veröffentlicht von Midnight Couture
We have been asked more than once now to tell or favorite bars and clubs in Berlin. Since everyone has a different taste in music and location we can just give you the one’s which reflects our own one.

Bars
King Size Bar
The name is actually not fitting the location. The bar is really small and you would walk past it if there would be no people standing outside.
Full? Always! People? A mix of chic and stylish people who like to hang to out there rather than dancing all night in a club.
Open from Wednesday to Saturday, 9pm to 7am
Newton Bar
Open Sunday to Thursday 10am to 3am
Friday to Saturday 10am to 4am
