Very british !

Bonjour !

First post since a few days and I'm back from Germany !
I spent a nice week there but now it's time to post again.
While reading the German magazine 'Joy' in the train back to Austria I noticed a few sites with Brit-Chic photos. It really inspired me and I thought : 'Why don't you write about Brit-Chic' ? So here you are:

I really like England and it's traditional clothes because it just looks great !!

If you want to look British you have to get something from Burberry !

I need to get such a scarf from Burberry : 325 €

cape-coat from Burberry London  : 895 €

I love the autumn 2012 collection from Tommy Hilfiger - it looks so British : 

Pullover from Tommy Hilfiger : 149 €

Skirt from Tommy Hilfiger : 129 €

Earrings : Forever 21 - 2,90 €

And now an English outfit for less : 

Pullover : H&M - 14,95 €

Tomorrow it's going to be a longer blog (I promise) 'cause today it's already late.

Lyrics of the Day :   Stranglers - Golden Brown 

Golden brown texture like sunLays me down with my mind she runsThroughout the nightNo need to fightNever a frown with golden brownEvery time just like the lastOn her ship tied to the mastTo distant landsTakes both my handsNever a frown with golden brownGolden brown finer temptressThrough the ages she's heading westFrom far awayStays for a dayNever a frown with golden brown
Picture of the Day :  'Miss-NO1-Englishwoman' Duchess Catherine

KEEP CALM AND LISTEN TO BAT FOR LASHES !

(Re)naissance

Bonjour !

After my self-confidence - blog yesterday , it's time to write about fashion.


I love the lastest collection 'Versailles' - the idea of mixing the classic Chanel-flair with the baroque period of Ludwig XIV is great ! (The fashion-show even took place in Versailles)

The spring 2010 collection reminds me of elves in forests . (My sister would love it)

But enough of Chanel (for a start)

Marc Jacobs' shoes are also Ludwig XIV-like (Autumn-Winter 2012/13)

Seems to be a popular theme for the upcoming season

Sorry, it's not going to be a very long post today because I'm busy with packing my suitcase for my trip to Germany ! 

Picture of the Day: Florence Welch for Vogue America September 2012 (also a little bit 18th century)

Lyrics of the Day: Sleeping at Last - Turning Page

I’ve waited a hundred years
But I’d wait a million more for you
Nothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do
If I had only felt the warmth within your touch
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough
Well I would have known
What I was living for all along
What I’ve been living for
Your love is my turning page
Where only the sweetest words remain

KEEP CALM AND READ MY BLOG 

Bisous , Katharina Dorothea

Mainstream - No thanks !

Bonjour !

There's one thing you should know about me: I try my best not to be mainstream.
I neither like mainstream-music nor mainstream-clothes !
Anyone has got a problem with my way of thinking or clothing? - I don't care !
That's one of the main reasons why I decided to start a blog - I'm able to share my thoughts with people who understand me and accept me as I am ! 
I've got my own style and I think everybody should have one because in my opinion you can express yourself the best through clothes. 

(That was my agony-letter ...)


Today it's all about the perfect body
Has this topic got something to do with MAINSTREAM ? -Yeah, it has !
You can get a picture of what you're ought to look like if you look around.
Everywhere there are models laughing at you with their 'perfect' bodies from their billboards.
I confess : Sometimes I feel a little downcast because of my teenager-hormones that make me feel bad about my body. But then there are days when I'm totally satisfied and wouldn't want to lose a gramme - today's such a day ! I love my curves that make me a real girl ! I wouldn't want to look like a breakable toothpick.
Marilyn Monroe should be a role model for every woman because of her curves - doesn't she look good  ?  

A few centuries ago , being chubby was a sign of richness and fertility. 

If you take a size zero woman like Victoria Beckham or Allegra Versace - they are pitiable. I mean : Don't they get anything to eat or can't they afford some food ? (they would have the money) Or do they just want to make teenagers feel bad about themselves?

Pure femininity

I'll end this topic with a picture I found on weheartit.com:

Today, I read : 

JUSTIN BIEBER MAKING FUN OF PRINCE WILLIAM'S HAIR LOSS!

Prince William - who had saved a teenager from drowning yesterday - has to be insulted by a boy because of his hair loss. Justin Bieber first has to be as courageous, selfless and modest as William is and then he'll might be able to make fun of him . I really think that Justin wouldn't even want to jump into the water because of his hair!!! 

Sorry but I'm really upset ! Poor William ! Actually, I didn't abhor Justin but today I changed my mind !!  

I find it kinda funny !

Picture of the Day :  Prince William, Princess Catherine and Prince Harry and the guy on the right looks like Colin Firth !









Lyrics of the Day : Florence and the Machine - No Light , No Light

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day
You can't choose what stays and what fades away
And I'd do anything to make you stay
No light, no light
No light
Tell me what you want me to say
Through the crowd I was
Crying out and
In your place there were a thousand other faces
I was disappearing in plain sight
Heaven help me
I need to make it right
You want a revelation
You want to get right
But it's a conversation
I just can't have tonight


KEEP CALM AND LOVE ENGLAND !

Bisous, Katharina Dorothea

Pourquoi pas ?

Bonjour !

Favourite ♥

So , today I went to the ophthalmologist where I hoped to get glasses ! & guess what he said : YOU DON'T NEED GLASSES ! Actually, I should be relieved but I love them so much - they just make you look and feel so intelligent ! The Ray Ban glasses are the best !




But enough of my problems ...

Usually, I'm not that pale

A few days ago my cute photographer-sister Annika took pictures of me -
                                                               here's the result :

Some retro stuff

I love retro things - that's why I adore Lana del Rey ! She's got such a great style and voice !

Video: Breaking Down

Lyrics of the Day:  Lana del Rey - Radio

Now my life is sweet like cinnamon
Like a f-c-ing dream I'm living in
Baby love me cause I'm playing on the radio
(how do you like me now?)

La première entrée

Well, my first entry- how exciting ! I'll try to post something as often as possible ! So, I'm already looking forward to Monday because I'm going to Germany with my sister and my cousin. Pictures of some outfits will follow after our trip.

Yesterday , I realized how important hats are to me - you can wear them every season! I especially like Florence Welch's ones :

Florence Welch

Louis Vuitton also got the hat-fever: 

En vogue

But Kate Middleton is the Queen of Hats - She also is the Hat-Person of the Year

You should really think about buying a hat !!

Lyrics of the Day: Marina and the Diamonds- Teen Idle

Yeah I wish I’d been a, wish I’d been a teen, teen idle
Wish I’d been a prom queen fighting for the title
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible
Feeling super, super (super!) suicidal
The wasted years, the wasted youth
The pretty lies, the ugly truth
And the day has come where I have died
Only to find I’ve come alive

(It's a song that criticizes some of the Teenagers in the world)

Bisous , Katharina Dorothea
