This is what I’d take for a Berlin city break with easyJet Holidays’

This is what I’d take for a Berlin city break with easyJet Holidays
Well Berlin uber, funky street style capital. Paris is chic but Paris SO knows it.
But Berlin, Berling doesn't give a monkey's what you think or what is chic?
Berlin style is all about being different, comfortable, true to yourself. Londoner love abit of Berlin for the gigs, bar scene, the unique people and the attitude.

First things first, I'll be packing minimal items, because I need space in my case for the return leg of my journey, because I'm going shopping in Berlin.

Fabby little independant stores like A.D. Deertz (addeertz.com) and Wood Wood are top of my hit list (woodwood.dk).

SHOES
But fancy shoes are out the window for city break shopping - so trusty leather converses are in the bag. (shown in the photo) 
Okay fancy smart black shoes for a posh bisto, might be useful too.
SKIRT
Love abit of ZARA and this beautiful long green skirt will look great from day to night.(shown in the photo) 
ON TOP
Daytime teamed with a plain white t-shirt and funky BrickLane vintage jewellary.
Night : Well baroque was all over the catwalk and will be spicing up my wardrobe too. I think this shirt from River Island will look great with a beer. (shown in the photo) 

I'm keeping warm with my demin jacket (shown in the photo) and a good black vintage leather jacket too.
Ohh heck, will I'm dreaming I'd also pack a lovely little Lana Del Ray mulberry handbag in midnight blue mmm





Just remember sunday is a day of rest, so clothes shops are all shut - which is a jolly good excuse to stay up til the wee small hours on Saturday night dancing and exploring.

Right that's me packed the essentials - time to rock and roll

Capture the Colour

http://www.travelsupermarket.com/c/holidays/capture-the-colour/

So I wanted to put together a colour slide of five colours : Blue, Green, Red, Yellow and White and these pictures were all taken in London in the year of the Olympics.

Red was me at the Royal College of Art's summer ball - infront of the Red Dada wall.
Green was an art installation infront of a wall of beer bottles
Blue was at the Secret Cinema event for the movie Promethius - all the freaky little bottles in the blue light
Yellow was in NYC when I saw Avenue Q at the theatre
White was the pavlova mergaine that I made for a dinner party with friends




My favourite bloggers who I think should follow this : Run-riot.com and Londontheinside.blogspot.com and Stellaswardrobe.blogspot.com and Londonshopfronts.com and Londoneater.com and Stylebubble.co.uk
I've told them all about it on twitter too!

Zanlando looking good

So Zanlando.co.uk have this super awesome fashion competition on at the moment, pull together a style from their massive range of clothes, shoes and accessories upload it to your blog and hey presto, if its good enough, you might just win yerself £3600 worth of new clobber. And my favourite part of the prize, if that you receive the prize vouchers monthly in £300 chucks, rather than one massive winfall. How good would that be, every month guilt free online shopping - whoop whoop ! Anyway I pulled this outfit together, it works for my style and running about London getting on with my job.

For me I'd wear the Tommy Hilfiger SCOTTS VALLEY - Skirt - grey (£105) with comfy, edgy Fly London MANGO ankle boots (£155) perfect for cycling around town on the Boris bikes, with a bargain of a Blazer - Vero Moda - PDO Blazer £42.00 in grey, with a classic white shirt, Hilfiger Denim FROST - Blouses & Tunics - white. But in my Pieces Herla Bag in red tartan (£48.00) I'd also have space for essentials and an outfit for a drink after work with the uber hot man who I pass occasionally in my office building. I've no idea who he works for, but I reckon my new found confidence due to new threads would enable me to finally ask him out.

For my date I'd wear the Bench Daniel jersey dress, with my Fly London boots plus the funky Diesel GANRI-SERVICES - Belt in brown, round my waist would add some direction to the outfit, without it being TOO trying.
