Wearing: Spektre Sunglasses& Other Stories Scuba Skirt (similar here, here, and here)and Angora Sweater(similar here, here,  and here), H&M Paris Runway Collection Over-the-Knee Boots(similar here, here, and here), H&M Angora Beanie, and a Proenza Schouler Bag

As someone growing up in the 90's, the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about over-the-knee boots is "Pretty Woman" and the connection is unavoidable.This is the reason why I never thought I would be wearing a pair. Like EVER. However, after who knows how long they made a comeback and in a non-Pretty Woman kind of way. To be honest, it is hard to find boots like that, but this H&M boots from the Paris collection are spot on.
At first, I was not convinced about it, but seeing them on other bloggers made me rethink my decision about not getting them, though by then, they were sold out online. Luckily, a nice girl on Kleiderkreisel (a German site where you can buy, sell, and exchange items you don't want anymore) sold them to me brand new and with label for the same price they were sold online.
I have been craving long boots for quite a while and my eyes were set on the infamous Givenchy Shark boots, but the price tag that comes with them is what  has been stopping me from clicking them away home. For now, these H&M boots have sufficed and satisfied my craving.

Als ein Mensch, der in den 90ern aufgewachsen ist, ist "Pretty Woman" das Erste, woran man bei Überknie Stiefeln denkt. Die Verbindung ist unvermeidlich. Deswegen hätte ich nie gedacht, dass ich jemals ein Paar Überknie Stiefel tragen würde, aber sie sind zurück, obwohl auf eine verschiedene art als bei Pretty Woman. Ehrlich gesagt finde ich es schwierig solche Stiefel zu finden, aber diese aus der H&M Paris Kollektion sind die Perfekten.
Am Anfang war ich nicht davon überzeugt, aber nachdem ich sie an vielen Bloggerinnen gesehen habe, habe ich mich dazu entschieden, sie zu kaufen. Leider waren die Stiefel damals online ausverkauft. Zum Glück hat eine nette Kleiderkreislerin sie mir für den selben Preis verkauft, wie sie online verkauft wurden. 
Ich wollte lange Stiefel seit einer langen Zeit und ursprünglich wollte ich die berühmten Givenchy knie-hohe Stiefel, aber da ich den Preis viel zu  hoch finde, habe ich sie am Ende nicht gekauft. Für jetzt reichen mir diese H&M Boots und ich kann mich überhaupt nicht deswegen beschweren.

Habiendo crecido en la década de los noventa, lo primer que viene en mente cuando uno piensa en botas arriba de la rodilla es en la película "Pretty Woman". La conexión es inevitable y por eso nunca pensé que algún día las llevase yo. Ahora éstas marcan tendencia pero no de la misma forma en que Julia Roberts las llevaba. Para ser honesta, encontrar botas que no se vean vulgares es muy difícil, pero estas botas de la colección de Paris de H&M son perfectas.
Al principio no me convencían, pero después de verlas en varias blogueras me hizo considerar comprarlas, pero ya era demasiado tarde para ello en ese entonces ya que estaban agotadas online. Por suerte, una chica que fue muy buena conmigo me las vendió nuevas y con etiqueta  al mismo precio que se vendieron online.
Desde hace tiempo he tenido la intención de comprar botas largas y tenía los ojos puestos sobre las famosas botas a la rodilla de Givenchy, pero el precio es lo que me ha parado de comprarlas. Por ahora estas botas de H&M han satisfecho mis ganas de botas arriba de la rodilla y estoy muy contenta con ellas.

Outfit | Neoprene Dream




Wearing: & Other Stories Neoprene Skirt(similar here, here, here, here,here and here), Zara Draped Shirt (similar here and here), Windsor Smith Sandals(similar here and here), and a  Proenza Schouler Bag



EN

As most of you know, neoprene is the fabric of the season. I have been craving for a neoprene skirt (actually all things neoprene) for quite some time, but I never found the perfect one until I stumbled upon this beauty from & Other Stories (and because one wasn't enough I bought myself the electric blue version as well to add a pop of colour in my monochrome wardrobe). 

It looks good with strappy sandals, ankle boots, over-the-knee boots, you name it, so it's a good investment if you think about it. Neoprene adds structure to any garment, so I think that in that sense, it is a great fabric and we might be seeing it a lot for the next upcoming seasons.


DE

Wie viele von euch schon wissen, Neopren ist das Material der Saison. Ich wollte einen Neopren-Rock seit einer langen Zeit, aber ich habe den perfekten nicht gefunden, bis ich über diesen von & Other Stories gestolpert bin (da einer nicht genug war, habe ich auch den blauen gekauft).
Er sieht mit Sandalen, Stiefeletten, und Überknie Stiefel gut aus, deshalb ist er eine gute Investition. Neopren gibt jedem Kleidungstück die richtige Form, deshalb glaube ich, dass es ein großartiges Material ist, von welchem wir wahrscheinlich noch mehr werden in den kommenden Saisonen.

Como muchas de vosotras sabéis, el neopreno es el material de la temporada. Había buscado una falda de neopreno desde hace mucho, sin mucho éxito para encontrar la perfecta hasta que encontré ésta de & Other Stories (como una no era suficiente, tuve que comprarme la versión en azul eléctrico).

La falda es ideal para combinarla con sandalias gladiadoras, botines, botas largas y por ello es una buena inversión para esta temporada. Lo que me encanta del neopreno es que le da una estructura a cada pieza, por eso creo que es un material excelente, el cual veréis mucho en las próximas temporadas.

THE HAT FOR NOW: A TURBAN

Posted by Bethan Holt, Junior Fashion Editor at Large

We're backing the turban as the headwear of the Summer. Ok, so they might not be so street as a Rihanna-favourite cap nor so easy as a straw panama but, damn, are they chic. A turban is the kind of hat which works on the beach but also on a rainy Saturday night when you're going out clubbing and can't be bothered to do your hair. Basically, they're fabulous.

What has prompted us to think about turbans now? If any of you have visited & Other Stories' London store, then you will probably have seen how they have a bikini and turban matching set by Abigail Lorick. They have had it displayed for some time on the table you pass as you go up the stairs in the London store, well they did at least until I went in a couple of weeks ago. I've seen it so many times (do I sound obsessed?) that it has planted a seed for how I'd like to look when I finally make it to the beach in July. Sort of like someone out of a Slim Aarons photograph, please. Chloe Sevigny livened up her Proenza Schouler Met Ball dress with a black turban which took it from perfectly nice (though very un-punk) to something really rather Gloria Swanson-like. Funnily enough, Sevigny's mate Marc Jacobs cited Swanson as an inspiration for his decadently glamourous Autumn/Winter collection. All Sevigny needed was a stonking huge diamond brooch at the front of her turban to look proper 30s socialite.

Some of the most originally stylish well-known women in the world are keen proponents of the turban. Sheikha Mozah, a wife of the Emir of Qatar, has regularly appeared at state occasions across the world in turbans made to match her choice of outfit, usually a sleek column in piercingly bright purple or understated grey or navy. She brings a fresh slant to Islam's modest dress codes. Kids Company founder Camilla Batmanghelidjh co-ordinates her rainbow coloured turbans with  her multicoloured robes and scarves to dazzling effect. She always looks like she might be on her way to some wild celebratory festival. These two women are proof of the turban's brilliance; Sheikha Mozah is about elegance while Batmanghelidjh is all colour and fun, but neither would look right to us now without their respective takes on turbans. Proof that you can make the humble head wrap completely your own.
