1 1/2 years ago...Tokyo

Good evening ♥

Ah~ I hope you're feeling better than I do (ﾉДT)

My legs hurt so bad, I'm feeling extremely outworn and my head started to hurt a few minutes ago too...

I guess my nervousness is taking over my whole body; exams start in 2 days. (and I'm totally not in the mood to study anymore omg)

Well, today I'd like to share the last pieces of memory from my trip to Tokyo in Dec 2010/Jan 2011 ♥ (those photos I didn't post yet are super random though)

Enjoy ♥

Arashi!

Signed Calmando Qual Poster ♥

Train arrival ♥

Arashi again!

Shia's love: Matsujun

Heading to Sunshine City ♥

Shonen-ai promotion!

HUB Ikebukuro

And those addicting places I could never resist...

Fashion Inspiration Special - monomania Staff Yukke

It's time to say goodbye to popular

monomania Staff Yukke ( ゆっけ )

On Jul 11 he stated that due to personal reasons he is going to stop working for monomania by July 23.

He has now been part of monomania for about 1 year and gained much fame, especially online.

I always loved his way of wearing monomania and also:

Those modified monomania accessories were his work. It's kinda sad that I'll never be able to get one of these now that I'll actually be in Tokyo next spring. Sucks. A lot. I wish I could beam myself to Tokyo and buy one of his works.

You can still follow him on Twitter, he's going to continue using his account  ＠yukeranran

Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase

Good evening ♥

Scrolling through the comments I received for the question "what would you like to see more in my blog?" I noticed that 90% of you would love to know more about my personal life. I actually tend to think it's not interesting enough to blog about, but..well, I'll try to blog more about myself from now on ♥ let's start right now! There are tons of iPhone shots I didn't share with you yet.

Let's start with a quick example of what I do at University!

Part of my study is to explore each kind of media, photos below were for our Student's Newspaper for example:

 I chose to write about trend food (Frozen Yoghurt & Bubble Tea) - back in November 2011 btw.

Next to PRINT media there is the AUDIO part, our job was to create a podcast (my team's topic was sustainability in transport btw)

Another part is VIDEO ♥ probably my favorite next to PRINT

Places I recorded interviews at:

 Photo 1-3: "Theater on Tour" for Children

Photo 4-6: Home of a lady in Heidelberg that is well known for her great success in supporting homeless persons

Well but it's not just based on practical experiences - there's a shit ton of theory as well

 Photo example: Communication Conception - Analysis (Briefing, Setting of Tasks etc..)

Besides Uni there are several other things I do on a regular basis.

Example #1: Dance Lessons (almost) every Sunday in Neustadt

Example #2: Gym ♥ (Tuesday & Thursday)

 Pretty fancy, eh? Haha ♥ (it's the most cheap one in Germany though)

My 2nd semester is coming to it's end right now. Only things left:

- finish a portrait (journalistic portrait) until 23rd

- exam #1: 24th

- exam #2: 26th

(And maybe heading to Hamburg right after exam #2 ♥)

Fashion Inspiration Special - everything BUT monomania

Aloha ♥

Today's Fashion Inspiration is going to be different - I'll share everything BUT monomania!

DUDUUUN!!

You know usually 80% of my Inspriation posts are monomania coords and I thought I should give you a break (before I'm going to continue spaming monomania photos within the upcoming posts).

In my most recent post about KERA I already let you know that Ryutaro (Plastic Tree) was wearing a top I'd like to include in my next fashion post, so here we go starting with exactly that top:

It's part of HIRO / HONEY'S DEAD recent collection ♥

How to wear it? Not that hard:

 I guess it kinda works like a poncho ♥

So yeah some of you may have noticed that brand in my previous fashion posts, too. I'd actually like to buy at least one piece of their range - but they are even more expensive than monomania.

 Love their tag

Another piece I like is the jacket below:

  That print is adorable ♥

Some HIRO guys:

(I actually love guys dressed like that)

And shoes:

♥

Huge contrast: COCO LULU

 Love those overalls ♥ (could never wear them though) - same with the pants on the right (well I guess I could wear those...but not exactly in COLU sizes)

 The photo on the left is a great one in general, the coordinate on the right side is actually typical COLU for me (& I love it)

 Wonderful CO&LU caps to the left ♥

& a super pretty white blouse WITH RIBBON BUTTONS HOLY SHIT  ♥

Not CO&LU:

 (I forgot where I found the left photo...but I love it, it's mega stylish)

& the guy holding that extremely cute top on the right is Golden Bomber's Jun ♥

Of course I can't ever ignore KERA models:

 Look at Shiratama ♥♥♥ she's a huge inspiration for me, especially because we seem to share one closet

Speaking about my closet...don't forget to enter my giveaway ♥ it's ending soon
