It’s tough to be a man. At least fashionwise it is, because for a man it is a very thin line between ‘too much’ and ‘not enough’. A woman can pile on accessories and still look classy, whereas a man is easily considered ‘unmanly’ or ‘dandyish’ once he choses color, print or extravagant accessories. That’s … Continue Reading
London/Night 7: How to dress for a fab night out? A little bit of drama is neccesary, a hint of eccentricity, NOT practical (but not entirely uncomfortable either), a little chic, a little sexy, a little colour, a dash of gold – et voilà: a perfect outfit for having your picture taken in the badly … Continue Reading
I can read Susanne’s clothes. More than any of my other models she lets me see how she feels by the way she dresses. It’s a language and a signal to the world, inviting or protecting. We meet at the river Isar and Susanne is dressed all in black. Basically, all you can see is … Continue Reading
Good style – what’s it worth without charisma? Claire has got plenty of both.What I like most about Claire is her beautiful smile…and her great sense of style. She is wearing a belted leather circle skirt with a simple white T-shirt and a black military coat. Simple and good choice. However it’s her bright blue … Continue Reading
How many pairs of shoes do you really need? Asked a thousand times before this question is never an easy one to answer. Most certainly the answer always depends on who you ask. Is it a man or a woman? Is it a ‘fashion-person’ or not? Does a certain indomitable need for shoes run in … Continue Reading
London/Day 7: First day in London. viagra pharmacy2u It’s a Friday and Friday means Portobello Market. It’s a lovely day and London is as beautiful as it can get.

How do men manage to get dressed so quickly? I have a breakfast date with Joerg and I am running a little late so I send him a text message. 3 minutes later he replies that he totally overslept, just woke up, but will be there in 10 minutes. I order coffee and scrambled eggs … Continue Reading
I notice a slight change in Claire’s autumn/winter-look compared to her spring/summer-style. Lots of layering, playing with different styles and materials and her longer hair make her seem softer. I like the fact that Claire doesn’t follow one look, she combines a heavy leather biker-jacket and woollen socks with a floaty and feminine dress and … Continue Reading
Paris / Day 6: Today we are leaving for London but before we head to the train station we have some very last minute errands to run: Corey buys a last pair of absolutely neccessary shoes and we pay a short visit to the fabulous Hermès store – and are not dissapointed. Great architecture and … Continue Reading
What’s so special about Susanne? Is it her white blueish hair? Or maybe it’s the huge (and often handmade) scarves that she uses to accentuate her silhouette and sometimes also to hide from the world. Or is it her special feeling for color combinations? Maybe it is her kind and discreet personality in contrast to … Continue Reading
Paris/Day 5: It’s our last day in Paris – tomorrow we are on our way to London – and one last time we are heading to the fabric show. Corey blends perfectly into the parisian street picture and almost looks like a typical’Parisienne’ on her way to the greengrocers. A very classic and quite elegant … Continue Reading
Joerg knows very well how to accessorize in a non-classic way. He is not interested in conventional ‘man’s accessories’ like cufflinks, big watches, belts or ties. He rather choses almost childlike accessories like the red plastic necklace, the little button or his retro digital watch to complete his almost monastic, simple look. Also quite unusual … Continue Reading
