A Day in the Life of...goes male:-)

Hey lovelies:-)

First things first: My trip to Bristol was awesome! I had a brilliant time there and actually managed to do all the stuff on my list! I went shopping, to Starbucks, went to local clothes shops, visited Cardiff, went to a concert by The Maccabees, did a daytrip to Bath and so on! While Iam writing this, I feel like going again!
But I cant, the new semester just started yesterday:-) Ok, so it seems like I have to get back to my student life- which isn't that bad either!!!

Also, I thought it is really time to do another blog entry on here. I was looking through my past entries and one thing just caught my eye: I never really write about men:-) or their style! So, that is why I've decided to dedicate today's post to some stylish men, Iam currently admiring!
Hope you are enjoying today's entry as much as I did while I was picking out the pictures!





Wishing you all a great week!!!

In new music I trust :-)

Good morning,

However, it will only be a short one!

I have to introduce to you a (new) band I came across last week! They are a British Rock-Indie Band and their current album "El Camino" has been really successful last/this year!
Its........The Black Keys!!!

You should check them out if you like bands such as....The Maccabees, Noah and the Whale, Friendly Fires, Red Hot Chili Peppers...

Here's a link to their current song Gold on the ceiling!!!

A Trip to Bristol

Hey people!

sorry I havent written in such a long time! The old year went by so fast...I couldnt believe it! And it is already March 2012!
Right now, Im having semester break! But Im pretty busy with writing my final paper! Finding a topic, discussing it with my profs, and doing research!
Iam soon off to meet a friend, we wanna go to the movies and watch a French film, which is quite popular at the moment and promises to be a good one:-)

The most exciting thing happening in the next- lets say- month- will be my one week trip to Bristol!
My sister is doing her Master's degree there, and I will visit her to see what she is up to, meet her people and hopefully doing some nice things:-)
We will be in Cardiff on March 16, enjoying a The Maccabees concert (a British band)!
Also, I planned to do this stuff:

What I Want to Do While Visiting Bristol- A List
  • Going to Starbucks/ having a coffee at a local café/afternoon tea and scones
  • exploring the city and its little shops (e.g. clothes shops)
  • Shopping at Cabot Circus
  • Visiting Bristol Aquarium
  • Going to an Art Gallery: „Norman Parkinson: An Eye for Fashion“
  • see your university and class rooms
  • meet your friends
  • going to a pub
  • going to a club
  • (going to a concert or theater: they are showing “King Lear“ at the Tobacco Factory
  • have diner at a local restaurant, serving British food
        (like the one we went to in Galway!)
  • going on a day- trip to Cardiff (discussable:-D)
  • going on another day-trip- not Cardiff:-D alternatives: Bath, cities near ocean...
  • going to the movies (its like a tradition already:-))
I will let you know which things we managed to do, as soon as Iam back!!!

Hope you are all doing great!!!
Talk to you soon!

A Day in the Life of.....The American Music Awards 2011

Hey dolls,

tuesday evening and finally time for another blog entry:-D
I've been pretty busy with uni-work the last couple of weeks and, well, I've also been at my first christmas market this year, drinking the first Glühwein of this winter season! So yummy!

An important celeb event was happening last week- The American Music Awards 2011!
So, I thought it would be worth to write an entry about them- showing you how the stars dressed up to impress- what a twist of words, right?:-D

Country- singer Taylor Swift, 22, was one of the night's greatest winners. She won 3 awards, including "Greatest Artist of the Year". Adele, sensational newcomer from England, won 2 awards! Music superstars like Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, and Katie Perry did not win a prize, unfortunately.

But now let's have a look on this year's fashion- who could win the award in this category?

1. Miley Cirus: The young singer looked fabulous in her white-short dress- love it!

2. Rihanna: I did not like Rihanna's new red hair, however I must admit, I really like it here and the red dress looks actually nice on her:-D


3. Selena Gomez: the singer recently hosted the EMAs 2012 and looked stunning! She does here too, however, Iam not sure if this dress actually reveals a little bit too much, and is too sexy for almost 20 year old....What do you think?

3. Taylor Swift: The winner of the evening looked stunning in her metallic shimmering dress on the red carpet. I really like her hair, the bangs give the whole look an edgy touch!


4. Ellie Goulding: The British singer and songwriter has a great taste of fashion! She always gives her own style to it and this LBD is simple but yet classy. I think its her hair that gives her the look that "little something"

5. Heidi Klum: Model, perfume maker, host, and buisness woman is just an allrounder! How can a mother of four actually still look that good? A lot of discipline needed to keep this body in shape, I guess. I think this dress is nice, but it is a little "safer" than her usual outfits!

My award would go to......Ellie Goulding!
How did you guys decide?

Talk to you soon!
Have a great week!

A Day in the Life of....the OSCAR

Hey guys,

by now, probably most of you have realized Iam a big fan of music, cinemas, TV series ....
Iam also a big fan of award shows! I like seeing celebrities in their great dresses, discussing who looked good and who don't:-D
What is the biggest award show in the world? Right...the OSCARS!
There's no more glamorous, more star-packed, and fashionable show than the oscars. For one night, each celebrity tries to look the best he/she can! Sometimes, month long preparations are necessary to look stunning and perfect in the designer gowns. So, in honor of this year's oscars I picked out my 5 favorites!
Have a look....
 





What do you guys think about my oscar favorites?

Hope you are all having a great week so far!
Take care,
xxx Anni

A Day in the Life of....Blair Waldorf

Hey everyone,

its Monday evening and time for a new blog post!
In one of my last entries, I wrote about my top-10 series! Iam a TV-junkie and I pick up new series so easily (unfortunately:-D). To my defense, Iam not responsible for the fact that there are so many great shows to watch! Especially, US-shows.....
One of my favorite shows is....Gossip Girl! I just love the characters, the drama, and especially the fashion!
I think each character has his/her own unique style. There are the boys...
(1) Chuck Bass: heir of the Bass-empire, owns a fortune, suits are his fashion-statement; I love his classy way to dress; he's always looking like an actor from the 20s...considering his fashion:-D
(2) Nate Archibald: handsome, athletic, sexy, womanzier....just few words to describe Nate. His style is more laid back, between Ralph Lauren and Hollister:-D
(3) Dan Humphrey: grown up in Brooklyn his style reflects that...his usually dressed in jeans and comfy t-shirts, and his curly hair makes him the cute-boy-from-next-door! :-D
The girls....
(1) Serena Van der Woodsen: blonde hair, blue eyes, great body....funky, sweet, sexy, yet grown up. Serena knows how to dress herself in short skirts and pants, which show off her great figure!
(2) Blair Waldorf: Blair is actually my favorite character in the show; because of her attitudes and behaviour and her way to dress. Blair is the chick, upper East side girl, who knows how to wear classy dresses and skirts. She has an unique style, since it is classy and there is always a modern twist.

I love Blair's style and this is why I wanted to share with you some of my favorite Blair Waldorf outfits....and here we go.....






Hope you like them as much as I do!

See you next time!!!

A Day in the life of....Ben Howard

Hey guys!

As Iam really busy with university work, this will be just a quick post and update for you!
Listening to BBC Radio1 always has one big advantage: discovering new artists!

The last weeks I was into a new young musician named Ben Howard. His music is just brilliant.
He is from Devon, England and I would describe is music-style as folk-Jack-Johnson:-D
He just released his first album "Every Kingdom" and it is nothing but awesome. Every song on the album is fun to listen to and he sounds even better live!

I hope I will have the opportunity to see him next year in February, because he will play a gig in Bristol and since I happen to have a sister, who is studying there, it would be perfect!

My advice: Go to youtube and check out his songs!
This is a picture of him:

and him playing his latest track "The Fear":


See you soon!
