Do You Want To Join Me In My Fairytale? This photo series is a beautiful expression of a daydreamer like me that’s often lost in her fairytale world. After a bit of hick ups, I was finally able to finish editing all of the photos. I’m beyond happy to share them with you today. The photos of this shoot are no doubt my most favorite yet. Looking back it’s actually quite surprising I shot in this stunning dress for the first time! This gown is years old already as well but still looks like it’s fresh out of the H&M package. As you can read from all my gushing, I’m not only obsessed with this beautiful dress but these photos in general. And because I love them so much, you can find the second part of this series, with lots of different shots, on my instagram page. I really hope you enjoy this fairytale-ish series as much as I do. Have a lovely new week my loves! DRESS: H&M

LAW ROACH – IMAGE ARCHITECT – AND HIS RETIREMENT
Iconic Law Roach announced his retirement days ago and the fashion industry is crying, throwing up and sliding down the wall with a bottle of wine as a result. As if they’re not the reason he did what he did. I’m not going to lie, I didn’t know who Law Roach was when I first heard of his retirement announcement. Well, more exactly I knew all the iconic outfits he’d created for various celebrities, but I did not realize that Law Roach was THE stylist and the brain behind some of the most iconic looks on red carpets. Of course, I had to do a deep dive into this fascinating fashion genius. So, if you’re still a little confused who Law is and what that buzz around him is about, look no further than this post. Law Roach is one of the best known, liked, and respected celebrity stylists in the industry. He coined the term “image architect” and seeing his creations makes you understand why he’s not just a “stylist”. He has the ability to transform celebrities from ‘cute, but meh’ into fashion icons and household names in the industry. Megan Thee Stallion, Ariana Grande, Anya Taylor Joy and, his probably most well-known client, Zendaya are just some of the people he has worked with. Let me be honest, if there was a look on the red carpet that was absolutely stunning and breathtaking, it was Law that had probably styled it. He’s also been a judge for America’s Next Topmodel and the show Legendary. Additionally, he was the first black stylist to be featured on the cover of Hollywood Reporter’s “most powerful stylists” issue. Now unfortunately, there has also been a lot of struggles Law has faced behind the scenes for years on end, reaching from overt nepotism to racism in the industry.This year it seemed to have reached the tip of the iceberg and he said “no more”!Many have been speculating that that “tip” was him being snubbed at the LV fashion show, where he did not have a seat in first row sitting next to his protegee, like always. Seeing that Zendaya is said to be LV’s new ambassador, it’s definitely weird. Now couple that with the fact that when Anya Taylor-Joy was the ambassador for Dior Law was pretty much ostracized from her styling team, another snub from a LVMH company has a bitter taste to it. And this is just the stuff we can see, who knows how bad it was further behind the scenes.BUT thankfully, Law Roach is not leaving is completely in the dust. He is retiring 100% yes, but that’s just for celebrity styling. He’ll stay in fashion as, he says, he’s finally ”free”. I cannot begrudge him for his decision, hell, discovering his decision gave me a bit of cold feet seeing as I want to get back into fashion and styling, welp. Nonetheless, Law has made a household name for himself and can be incredibly and absolutely proud of himself.I am very curious as to what adventures he’ll be getting into next and can’t wait to see what fabulousness he brings us next. He has been doing a number of interviews recently and it’s quite entertaining listening to him.Also (and this part is really just for the universe), I’d REALLY like to meet him one day. He seems to be very kind and totally hilarious. I hope that, just like me, you’re caught up babes. Enjoy some of his styles I love the most in the following.See you soon. Until the next post.xx Ama
My wellness vacation in Kaprun (Austria) was exactly how I imagined it – wholesome and perfect! I’ve been longing for a Spa retreat for yeaaars now. Yet being a broke student at the time and then COVID suddenly hitting all of us and stopping life as we were used to, made it seem like it was almost impossible. So I cannot even describe how excited I was just planning this vacation, let alone arriving there. At the end we decided on the Tauern Spa hotel in Kaprun. First of all – the views were absolutely incredible. I’m not the biggest nature person, granted the fact that I almost die every spring because of my allergies might be a BIG contributor to that fact, but there I was just blown away. It was so so beautiful! Our days mostly looked like this: waking up to the view of the mountains, after breakfast directly heading to the sauna, enjoying massages and then end the day with a luxurious dinner and some yummy cocktails. Inbetween we decided to explore a little town called Zell am See near our hotel. We also took up the opportunity to go (almost all the way) up the mountain called Kitzsteinhorn with a passenger ropeway. Since I’m actually afraid of heights I’m not going to lie, there were some moments it set in that we’re thousands of meters up in the air and the anxiety followed, but I was able to focus on the beautiful view which really helped. I mean look at these photos – it was sooo worth it! On our last evening at the Spa hotel a little girl (not older than six or seven years old) that was seated with her family at the table next to us came up to me and gifted me a painting she made for me. Her mother explained that she loved the outfits I had been wearing and thought I was pretty, so she decided to make a painting for me. Aww, that was most definitely one of the sweetest moments in my life and a highlight of our vacation. That painting and it’s meaning really is a treasure for me. Currently I’m looking for a beautiful frame to put it in, but I just have to share a photo of it with you all. Overall I had such an incredibly lovely time and I will definitely be going back for more. If you want to see more impressions of this vacation, head over to my instagram! Have a lovely sunday and a great start into the next week!
Ladies and gentlemen, summer season is finally here! I just know you’re all currently busy planning all the details of your hot girl summer. Girl, same here, same. Germany has never been known for the greatest summers, but dang. This year’s summer weather is certainly not what we hoped for after being cooped up inside for months. But Mama did not raise a quitter, so we’re going to make the best out of this kinda-sorta-summer-weather. This year’s vacation is going to be an absolute relaxing wellness vacation with loads and loads of massages (I’m so excited, I could just jump around all day!). So why not give myself a little extra and buy some new swim wear. And while I’m at it, I might as well share my faves with you. I’m still on the fence on wether it should be a bathing suit or a bikini as my covid pounds are not ready to depart from my body yet. Which one is your fave? And please share if you know of other amazing swim wear (brands). BATHING SUITS BIKINIS Have a lovely week!
It is finally warm again, the sun is out and glowing and my spirit is in a higher frequency than in all previous months. My favourite summer dresses are waiting to be worn and adorned and I’m so excited! Here’s one I actually shot last year, but never got the post on my previous blog Phuck It Fashion. This lovely Cos dress has been a real oldie in my stable, yet still looks as if I just bought it a few days ago. Quality, I tell you, quality.
