Me loves the new What Katie did things! F/W 12

Hello everyone,

What Katie did is one of my favourite British vintage inspired lingerie designers (along with Kiss me Deadly) and they just released some new things. LOVELY THINGS!!! Here are some of my favourites!


New in the cabaret line! A sheer peach and black bustier and a lovely sheer girdle! While neither the bustier or the bra comes in my size (ONE SIZE too small! Darn!) the girdle is something I will keep my eyes on. But hey, if the bustiers and the bra are sucessfull they maybe extend the sizes a bit, huh? There is also a Waspie to go with the bra, but it is not my cup of tea - I prefer the girdle :-)


 I really love the Clarice sets (left and right side) in eau de nil color. Again this is something I hope to be sucessfull so they extend the sizes. If so the tap pants and bullet bra set would be something I REALLY need. In the middle you see one of the Lulu sets. It got a revamp. I am not sure what they revamped, but I own it in both the underwire bra version and the bullet bra version (see here) from the old design. It is  georgous. seriously. And I have no doubt so is the revamped version!

POLKA DOTTED stockings are my fave in their new hosiery collection!!!! MUST be included in my next WKD order!

And if you are German and have no credit card I am sure parts of the new things will show up at Ars Vivendi and Gothesque.

Shoes and exes... Swedish Hasbeens :-D

Hello everyone,

yesterday I stumbled over Swedish Hasbeens and you know what? I found out that´s not a phrase to refer to in regard of my exes, it is a actual shoe brand :-D And a cute one. Unfortunately the shoes fit my style, but not my wallet, but their campaign is just too pretty not to show it! http://www.swedishhasbeens.com





Particulare faves...
















Needless to say I´d rather have the shoes than the exes ;-) Lovely, totally my style with their cute retro look and color range but really nothing I can afford.  Maybe they have a huuuuuuuuuge super-hyper-sale some day???

Or: Hello Swedish Hasbeens. Please hire this


retro model for the next campagn. Yes, you can pay me in shoes!

Why I won´t have a New Year resolution this year!

Hello everyone,

it seems that everybody is doing a loooong list of New Year resolutions once more. Not me! Why?

1. All the things people decide to do are done already. I rarely drink anyway. I do not smoke. I eat a salad for lunch more often than I don´t. And most of the time I do my little fitness routine. No need to change anything. It will evolve. No need to put pressure on myself. My lifestyle is healthier than most peoples anyway.

2. Iam satisfied. I have a nice job, the greatest boyfriend in the world and occassionally a shooting. So no need to change anything of it.

That said I hope 2012 will be as nice as 2011 was for me :-)

Don´t drink and play tonight!

Keep cool!
Sari
