Artack

Now that New Yorkers returned to the city they used to love, and probably feel like they can love eating out of the "Big Apple" again, I am wondering… Is ART the new drug within all the really hip citizens of this city? Art Basel is over! Thank you, or should I be sad?! I am probably more sad than thankful in all honesty. The really cool people are back in town. Since I didn't get the message to fly out 3 days before Art Basel even began, I must be one of the 14% of the repulsive people who had to stay in this hidious place on earth. I give them a few more days before I am buying them a one way ticket to Cluj, Romania, which is according to Huffington Post one of "The 12 Cities That Will Shake Up The Art World In The 21st Century". I cannot listen to any more superficial art conversations. I am sorry, but most of you guys don't even know how to spell the word ART… yes only 3 letters! 
I don't want to bad mouth the exhibitions itself… I saw some really nice installations. The thing is… I don't need to see the ludicrous faces of New York's "high society" in front of it. Please do us all a favor and block your Instagram, so I am not tempted to see your various poses in front of a piece of art that reflects your beauty. I am sure the pool parties were very abstract and artsy enough, too! All in all, I have nothing against you guys, it's just the aftermath I don't want to be involved with. I know you are special and smart… you don't have to explain yourself anymore! You will see... tomorrow New York will be the city you love again. 


Here some of the works that were displayed and for sale at the art fare. (These are some examples, which probably should have stayed at home as a scrap pile - but still worth taking a picture for Instagram)

Mid-Length Skirt

Proenza Schouler’s Fall 2013 collection showed the women that mini skirts can stay in the closet until summer. This season we are going to stay classy with midi-length skirts.

I got myself one of the skirts at H&M and just love the way it flows. It is very simple yet very dramatic. With a cropped top or a knitted sweater it makes the perfect thanksgiving outfit.

Re-boot and be patent!

Patent-leather (I used to avoid because of dislike) reached my feet. I have no idea how it got there, but for some reason it gives my outfit the final touch this fall. I purchased two ankle boots from Zara and like the feedback I get.

Wild Ones

Not only in spring this trend is crossing our way. Also this fall we will see a lot of wilderness hitting the streets. I went hunting in the seasons sale and got myself a few animalistic items to roar up my closet.

Ankle Boots

Fall is around the corner and I am looking for a nice pair of ankle boots with a chunky heel. These are my three favorite pairs so far. I found them while browsing through the Zara online shop and one of my favorite designers Alexander Wang.

Berlin ALWAYS Calling

I love NYC, but I love Berlin just as much. It is my home and I can see myself moving back. It is filled with culture - art, music, inspirations. Every time I go back home to visit my family and friends I find new places to go. The best about Berlin in the summer is the river Spree with its many laid back beach bars. The turkish and flea markets offer the best and freshest foods for a low price. If you are looking for some special designer pieces, either in clothing or art, you should visit Hackischen Höfe. Hidden between buildings you can experience a quiet city life with many cute little stores.
