Good Morninggggg!! Guess where I am?
I'm all packed and on my way to Paris Fashion Week for a super duper short trip! 

I think it's save to say that I just shuffled half my wardrobe in a suitcase non the less haha  *last minute packing*

I'm most exited about shooting street-style so hopefully my schedule will allow it! and hopefully I can get my hands on a box of Ladurée Macarons! (yum yum ~ note the kitchen association in my Paris collage) I will be sharing a Hotel with Cindy, my Paris Fashion Week buddy! so Fun times 4 sure!

See you in Paris!

OUTFIT: With my Urbanears

This is kind of how I look lately.. me and my Urbanears headphones have been inseparable! I call them pillows on my ears ;)

This was me waiting for my photographer friend to take some outfit photos! Downside of the Urbanears is that I get sneaked-up-on by people a lot nowadays haha, I seriously don't hear anything when wearing them haha

The Urbanears came in a big box delivered to me by Bloggerswardrobe, seriously the best goodie box ever, just wait untill you see the other goodies ;) I think it's just funny how the Headphones have been in daily use ever since I've got them, I never expected that I, of all people would become so headphone depended!

Me and ma' Earzzzzz *_*

English roses

Ok, guys, Allan is super busy and i am super sick, so this is the only sneak peek we have time for.
Allan has finished his London rose flash set and we will be bringing a limited run to the convention where you can buy them!*
He'll also be tattooing roses from the set, but it won't be the usual "custom flash" deal that can only be done once, as these sheets are for sale.
But there'll be other designs to choose from too, not just roses, and we'll bring along the flash from last year as well, so anything that didn't get tattooed last year, will be up for grabs this year.

As for merch, we'll have t-shirts, flash, and some other limited prints that we'll keep a surprise for now.
Possibly originals too.
So come see us at the booth this weekend and check out what we got!
We have also updated Uncle Allan's portfolio with a bunch of brand new tattoos, some of which that haven't even been on the blogs or instagram, so that's worth a look too.

Oh, and for those wanting to get tattooed: if you get to the booth and there happens to be more than one person there, please form a line behind the person who was there first!
If people just stand around, we have no way of knowing who got there first, and we want it to be as fair as possible.

Hard at work, every night after actual work

See you tomorrow, London!


*We will make more when we get home, so they will eventually be for sale here on the blog too, but probably on different paper.

OUTFIT: It's Blue and Knitted

wearing: Esprit Cozy Blue Jumper, Black Jeans, Esprit Blouse, Esprit Satchel, Gestuz Shoes

Wearing the Esprit look that I styled during my visit at the Esprit flagship store in Amsterdam. The weather was grey and cold so perfect for a big knitted cozy sweater in a beautiful blue! I really wanted to wear something casual and comfortable with a very subtle sophisticated touch (the blouse) and used the color of the Satchel as finishing touch.



I couldn't help but leave the store wearing another Esprit look ;)
Wearing a Esprit woolen coat, green knitted jumper, bouclé skirt and Esprit leather Tote!

ps. Guess who was wearing something Red and Knitted? ;)

Esprit's Fashion and the City

I'm invited to the Esprit store to style my favorite look! So exited! So far my favorite items are the colorful knits and matching corduroy pants, the beautifully tailored basics, the checked blazer in electric blue and green and the coats! I'm still balancing between going to style soft natural look with a city sophisticated urban touch or to go for a more Basic look with colorful and bolder accents in accessories! (I'm really loving the bags and the knitted jumpers and think that they would stand beautifully on their own)

  

What I love most about Esprit's new Fall Collection is the inspirational vibe of the big cities! New York, Paris, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, all these capitals have their very own styles. Also when it comes to fashion.

Gisele Bündchen takes us on a virtual trip to the world’s most exciting fashion hubs in Esprit’s Fall Look Book. Showing us what to wear this season for a shopping tour on 5th Avenue, a stroll along Amsterdam’s canals, a café au lait in a Parisian bistro or a party in Downtown Hong Kong!

What are your favorite Esprit Fall items?

Sofitel New York

Standing outside the Sofitel Hotel on our last day in New York, just before heading out on our "last" shopping spree which ended up being an adventure (all adventure creds go to Yara!)

Since it was still quite hot and we had a lot of walking to do I was wearing my (new) sheinside navy blue dress with Zara velvet loafers, kind of an easy look :)

We were so lucky to be invited to stay at the Sofitel Hotel, based in Midtown Manhattan, a very short walk from Bryant Park and Times Square, the location and Hotel couldn't be more perfect! 

I always pay attention to locations for the sake of the trains/subway when staying in New York, especially during fashion week. Around this area you can find almost all the trains you need to go quickly uptown, downtown to the meatpacking district or east!

The Hotel was amazing, really one of the best Hotels I have stayed so far! The room was perfect for the two of us staying together!





Yara's look! I'm so in love with her leather shorts and studded loafers and hemmmm yes, the bag! Yara was also the best Fashion Week Companion ever haha, I don't think I have ever laughed so much! I can still feel my abs!





After taking these photo's we went shopping (the most funny shopping spree ever) 

It was Epic Yara day; Yara who got a ring stuck on her finger in a store that she couldn't get off making the most funny faces, Yara who lost her camera bag, Yara running around loosing her shoe, Yara running back again, Yara who found her Camera bag again, only to name a few Yara moments and all in just a few hours ^_^ Loved it :) We had some really great laughs! I guess I particularly loved it since its normal me who runs around like a mad woman loosing everything ^_^

Some photos in "our" room, clothing (sheinside dress) and yes, shoes stalled out!

All in all I had such a great time with Yara staying in New york and the Sofitel Hotel and I can't wait for the next NYFW!

Quickie

Here are a few pictures of tattoos... from the phone, sadly, but still, better than nothing, right?

We have some news soon, and hopefully i'll have time to post some London flash preview before next weekend (gah! So soon!), but for now, this is what you get!

Finished rib piece on Mads (his second one, see the first one here)

Henrik's really old bodysuit in progress... 90% of our medical tape supply goes to wrapping up this guy!

We went to Berlin last week where Allan tattooed Sarah in her beautiful new shop... hopefully we'll have a healed picture of this soon... it's geeky as fuck!

We'll be bringing new prints, t-shirts, flash and possibly some originals to London, so that should be exciting!

Flower Girls

 

The Australian Bloggers looking gorgeous together while taking a break from the shows at NYFW! All the floaty florals kind of deserved a little post of them own and besides the girls behind Tuula, Gary Pepper and Shine by Three are just totally nice and fun to hang out with!

 

And now the big picture: Bags, Camera's, Shoes spread out, I told you, we were taking a break ;) with Nadia from Froufrouu, Yara from thischicksgotstyle and Jason from Citizen couture!
