Leopard Tights x1


Tokyo really surprises me with that sudden change to spring. Looking back to my home tome in Western Germany, still beating degrees around 10, I feel stunned once again by this planet.


Cannot believe that with sitting in a plane for a little over 9 hours tomorrow, will bring me to summer in Australia.


How does your weather look like?

Pastel Green




If you post "green in fashion" into Google, you will receive around 1.580.000.000 scores. 


Reading about different brands launching campaigns and 
collection for a more environmental-friendly reasons.
Or health and ethical concerns. 



Amusing to see Berlin Fashion Week with the "Eco Fashion week" likewise on the top site of my google search.

Stripe Shorts x3


 Patterns and Stripes do not go along well?

I thought so at first, but was really surprised seeing that I fell in love instantly with that black based pattern and stripes clothes. 


Overall is black a pretty thankful and giving "color". One may argue, that black is no color, but the result of fully light absorption.

Basically the absence of color.



In 1982, launching Yohji Yamamoto and Rei Kawakubo outside of Japan in Paris, their style in layering and especially black is described as turning point:

"At the heart of this nothingness was the color black. Black, at the time, was a subversive choice. It was the color of mourning, of subcultural rebellion, of emotional dissonance, of artistic distemper. It was the essence of the avant-garde." (read further here: Voguepedia)



Why do you choose black?
