At Darklands

I still haven’t fully recovered from the sleep deprivation caused by all the crazy partying I did in Berlin, but I’m slowly getting united with what was left behind on Thursday. Introducing here my new hooded Boris Bidjan Saberi cardigan which I, after taking a long view, acquired from my absolute favorite Berlin boutique, Darklands, on the day of our arrival. This pretty little number is made of bamboo and is so soft and comfortable that I spent the rest of my four day mini vacation literally living and almost sleeping in it. The only time I gave it a little rest was on Saturday, when the sun was beaming from a blue sky, making it too hot to even wear a shirt for that matter. So yes, our destiny is sealed, we are pretty much inseparable now and will stick together through thick and thin, until unraveling threads (I hope never) do us apart.

My boyfriend says that the weather right now is exactly how it is during October in Southern California. Obviously we have chosen the wrong place to live in because I would kill for weather like this all fall through; Being able to wear a leather jacket with sandals is pretty much what I would call the perfect season.

Speaking of which, this Obscur leather jacket has been lurking in my closet ever since June, waiting for these perfect, end of summer days to come. When we were introduced to each other in Paris, it was love at first sight. It’s a great feeling to wear a piece of art that has been designed by a friend, making the garment much more personal and interesting – almost if it was telling a story. I really can’t wait to show you guys what the Obscur designer, Richard Söderberg, has in store for next summer but more about that soon…I promise.

Après le spectacle Damir Doma

I hope you are not tired of my Paris stories yet because here comes another one. After the Damir Doma show we decided to fool around, chat to some  of the fellow street style photographers, and actually properly perpetuate my outfit for once. Do check out my friend Arash’s self-made wedges that I jokingly named as “Shit Owens“, and which Arash himself describes as “a desperate attempt at feeling fabulous” (after breaking three pairs of these RO medges during spring. Not to worry though, according to the very helpful and friendly Rick Owens sales people in Paris, with the new f/w 10 collection the quality issues have been solved). At least they provided entertainment and were one of the most photographed shoes out there. Arash dreams of becoming a shoe designer one day and I really don’t blame him for doing so, at least he is not lacking of imagination.

Goodbye spring, welcome summer (part 2)

To save you from a complete picture overload, I decided to save my outfit shots from Saturday’s party to a separate post. My ensemble consisted of pretty much of an Owens/Demeulemeester union,  more specifically of the Rick Owens maxi skirt that I bought awhile back but haven’t photographed until now,  a silk Ann Demeulemeester top from my Berlin trip, my precious Owens wedges and a zipper necklace from Ann Dem as well.  My hat is a fast purchase made on Saturday morning  and it’s from the H&M Fashion against AIDS collection. I had been eying on it ever since the campaign images hit my email box a few weeks ago, and in a way it kind of reminds me of this season which only, has a positive ending to the story.
