DINNER WITH COMME DES GARCONS - BLUE INVASION LAUNCH & EXHIBITION

On thursday evening the Japanese avantgarde designer label COMME des GARCONS invited me and four other bloggers to celebrate the launch of their new and upcoming fragrance called 'BLUE'.
The get-together started at the store of COMME des GARCONS with a little exhibition around the three new fragrances. We had the chance to take some first, deep breaths on the perfumes - I loved them all!
After some drinks at the Michelberger Hotel we had a walk across the Spree, snapped some pictures of the sun going down behind the skyline of Mitte and finally arrived at the Richard restaurant - which is located in one of the oldest buildings of Berlin. 
It was such a funny and enjoyable evening with a fantastic dinner and it was cool to meet up the PR Team of CdG again. As the German launch of the fragrance will be next month I will post another article about the three sents any time soon. So stay tuned!

As I want to share a part of the BLUE experience with you, I am giving away guestlist spots for the exclusive mini-exhibition of COMME des GARCONS. To get two of them just write me an email to julius@youngvanity.com!

URBAN OUTFITTERS AW 13 PRESENTATION

Last week Urban Outfitters opened its doors at Mitte for the launch presentation of their AW13 collection. Jogger pants, wonderful black leather jackets, without a lot of colors - all held in grey and black. The UO AW13 collection really hit my style nerve.
Best thing: Going through the entire UO stock searching for a free piece - in love with my new backpack!

MINIMARKET X BAERCK STORE LAUNCH EVENT

The swedish design label Minimarket teamed up with one of my favourite stores in Berlin 'BAERCK' (which is located at Mulackstraße in Mitte). The outcome? A colorful plateau sandal which was presented in the little store last night. With a constraint of only 8 pairs (!) you will have to be REALLY fast to get one of them.

#YNTHT LISTENING SESSION BY PHILIPS

Last night Philips and Noisey invited to a wonderful in-store listening session under the hashtage name #YNTHT (YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS). While listening to the DJs music we had great and luckily cool drinks and were able to try out the colorful Philips headphones. 
#YNTHT is a new platform that celebrates the music nerd in all of us, so don't lose time and check out their website here. 

WHAT TO WEAR: SPRING IN THE CITY

Okay, admitted Berlin is not New York (as you can see it on the pictures here) but after all the spring-in-the-city style could be the same. Tripple denim, white and creme all-over looks and floral based shirts with black business shorts (Clavin Klein Collection SS13) - that's my dream of having a fashionable summer in the big city. In the last days the weather here in Berlin was beyond perfect that's why everyone pilgrimaged to the parks and rooftops trying to forget this freezing winter!

As the perfect outfit doesn't get along without the right accessoires I am a total fan of G-SHOCK watches atm. The white modell I own is always around my wrist giving every outfit a 90's but still so stylish character. Especially for spring this G-SHOCK GW-M5610NV-2ER in dark blue and neon green is a wonderful eyecatcher for street-fashion fans and with 129€ more than affordable!
