#REDROCKBIGBLOGGERCOMP

Dressfashion Prom Dresses Manchester

 


  
Remember the post I was telling you guys about "RedRock"? 
"RedRock is a label created by Kiran Lall fashion designer and stylist with a knack for an original diy style and indie inspired fashion approach. All items are hand made in RedRock studios in Northampton, UK. As all pieces are hand made no two items will ever be the same, creating a truly individual style for each and every customer.
RedRock is for girls who like to have fun with fashion, stand out from the crowd by wearing something a little different that can't be found on the High Street. RedRock is not about following trends but looking great wearing WHAT YOU WANT ...and still FEELING A MILLION DOLLARS $$
More recently RedRock has be involved with re-working vintage clothing from the eras of 60's, 70's and 80's for something a little extra special and timeless!!
The label has only been running a little over two years but has already secured rails at some of the UK's hottest boutiques, received national press including Sew Hip Magazine, Drapers and Company Magazine, put on their first fashion show in London's infamous Brick Lane. RedRock designs have also been seen on E4 Skin's favourite and been requested by the likes of Paloma Faith, Lauren Pope and Audrey Kitching!!"

RedRock competition: WWAW!

Dressfashion Prom Dresses Manchester

I SURE want to get my hands on some REDROCK goodies!! 
That´s why I just joined their latest Blogger competition!

They are calling all bloggers? Ok, Anni heard your call, and here´s the answer!

WWAW? <- What Would Anni Wear? 
Well - something like this:


I decided to pick the "Heart Football Cropped Tee" - because - HELLO?! I love football! Well, american football AND soccer. Football. How confusing is that? Football all the way, though. I rock my Chargers jersey while watching games. I am football. Period.

So how would I style it? I have exactly the same boyfriend shorts I picked for the mashup above. They are one of my favourite pieces during summer, cause of endless ways to build an outfit around them.

The "adidas Wings 2.0" by Jermeny Scott are on my "I would do almost anything to have them"-List for a looooong time now. I saw someone wearing them during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Berlin a couple of weeks ago. Jealous.

I carry around tons of stuff, so I usually need big purses. This one by Stella McCartney rocks!

Which summer outfit is complete without a pair of aviators? NO OUTFIT! So there you go! The whipped cream on top of my outfit ;o)

Ok you guys over there at REDROCK, gimme that goodie bag now! :oD

Little Treasures // 11 Months

About 1 year ago was the first day I walked into my new apartment in Bavaria.
The moment I was walking around for the first time, I knew what I wanted to have:

A secretary.

Back in Trier I started looking around eBay and flea markets, but didn´t find one that I 
a) liked and 
b) could afford.

Time went by, a few weeks later I was in Bavaria again to finally get  the keys for my new home. The janitor showed me the rest of the building, including my cellar compartment. He opened the door...........

...........and there it was! A wonderful secretary! In movies there would have been a spot pointed on it and maybe a choir of angels singing "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
It was a bit dirty, but looked exactly like what I was looking for.

So I asked the janitor "Whose is that????" And he answered: "It´s in here since forever, so if you want it, you can keep it!" I was sooooooooo happy!

But: that thing weighs about a ton! I live on 4th floor!

Last weekend, after 11 months of waiting, me and M finally made it and carried it up the 81 steps (oh plus the 10+ steps from the basement to the first floor...).

And here it is :) my treasure!

1977 Victoria's Secret Catalog

Dressfashion Prom Dresses Manchester

I must admit, I was a little surprised to learn Victoria's Secret was around in 1977. Evidently, they started that year in a San Francisco shopping center. They also put out a mail order catalog in '77 which has been lovingly scanned for your viewing pleasure at Yeeeeee.

 





You may recognize the model in the picture above. That's Melody Anderson from Flash Gordon. I don't know about you, but I find that rather interesting.
