YOUTUBE: VLOG - SHOP WITH ME, YOUTUBER FASHION SHOW & SHIRIN DAVID FANTREFFEN

vlog lois opoku youtube
The music-cockblock-association aka GEMA fucks my brain. Getting this vlog up was next level struggle.
After my video being blocked in 27 countries (of course Germany was first on the list) for using a remix that sounded too close to the original for the content ID claim robot, I had to cut the video again after finding a great indie musician on soundcloud.
Turns out this not-so-undercover indie artist got somewhat famous so her old song became subject to a copyright claim. Same game over again.
At this point I couldn't care less about being able to monetize the video or not. After being stripped of that right, GEMA still had the audacity to block that song SOLELY in Germany. Like fuck why??? I just wanted it to be viewable regardless of where you are. And I came so close to saying, well fuck it and fuck you Germany, if want to see my video go to www.unblockyoutube.com
From here on out, it's not my wahala.
Bye. I'm out!

But being as caring as I am about my readership and viewers (hello to every 176 of you on Youtube!! <3), I couldn't let it not by my wahala.

So I finally beat the music-cockblock-association and the content ID claim robot, while still being able to find somewhat acceptable music for my video (actually I'm digging this song very much), but I couldn't bother to cut the video according to beat anymore. Forgive me.
Anyway I'm happy that my first vlog is up and it is like a homevideo of a really cool day. I take you shopping with me and my friend Sophie, just us girls being girls. Later we get to have some fun with INDIE Magazine + a shooting and I met the cutest fan girls!
I don't want to say to much since I want you to waste your next 12 minutes of your life watching my video! ;)
#GoSubscribe and #GiveItAThumbsUp!
Peace, Love and BYE-Felicia-BYE-gema

INDIE MAGAZINE x YOUTUBE

Lois Opoku INDIE Magazine shooting x Youtube Fashion Week is over and soon I'll bombard you with all of the pictures and posts from last week. I'm already happily sharing images under the hashtag #lisforloismbfwb. Do check it out, if you can't wait to see what I was up to.
But the Friday before Fashion Week, before all madness began, Youtube invited a few bloggers and vloggers for a get-together and styling session with INDIE Magazine in the newly opened Youtube Creator Space Berlin. The session was fun and I tried on two overalls, an olive one from Topshop and this one in the pictures, which I finally opted for. (Thanks Sarah for your expertise!). But you guys seemed to LOVE the olive one on Instagram. What you couldn't see though, was that you could tell it was way too big in reality. It's all about the angles on Instagram ;) Facetune, Photoshop, plastic surgery.. what for when you got angles? LOL.

Anyway, I'm totally digging overalls atm, from a lace insert overall to the sexy front criss crossed overall for a sexy plunging cleavage... They are just so cute!

I don't actually think these pictures will appear in the INDIE Magazine, but nonetheless they are great shots for a blogpost. Leni has always shot amazing Streetstyle pics of me.
Thank you Youtube, and especially Claudio for organising! If this event was a video, I'd give it a big fat thumbs up.
Speaking of thumbs up and videos, I filmed a little vlog from that day which went live on Youtube, beginning of last week, but GEMA had to cockblock me of course. I've just selected new music and the vlog will be live any minute. Be prepared to go shopping with me as I take you backstage of the styling session and more. You can watch it here.
