COLORS AND PRINT MIX I #FCfindyourlook

Lois Opoku Pepe Jeans Blogger Event look 2 lisforlois
Hey Guys,

I've been thinking about visiting Fashion Week abroad. It's time for me to see more than Berlin Fashion Week and Fashionchick is giving away this huge opportunity with the #FCfindyourlook competition. With the first Save The Dates popping up in my inbox I'm left with a is it already Fashion Week yet?! feeling and the desire to explore more than just Berlin.
Of course London, Paris and New York have been a huge dream for me and crazy enough I have received invitations to London and Paris before. But I never went and I've never attended for reasons like buying a plane ticket and the expenses of staying. Another city that's always been of interest for me has been Stockholm and Amsterdam Fashion Week.
With this huge opportunity from Fashion Chic, an all paid expense trip including tickets to shows and meetings with other bloggers and fittings, it seems like a dream so close to come true. Hopefully I'll win! I cant wait to blog from Amsterdam and share my adventures with you. Keeping my fingers crossed! Will you vote for me?

A SPONTANEOUS SHOPPING TRIP TO THE DESIGNER OUTLET BERLIN

Designer Outlet Berlin Michael Kors lisforlois
Last week I got my girls Desi and Nisi to join the mini road trip for a shopping spree at the Designer Outlet Berlin with some really awesome shopping companions.
We were all hot for the new Michael Kors Store at the outlet, which btw is 2x the size of the store at Rosenthaler Straße, and holds lots of treasures from watches, to clutches, sunglasses and so many amazing bags. I immediately fell in love with the little red Michael Kors bowling bag I have been eyeing for a little while. But I didn't get it, because although a great deal at the Designer Outlet Berlin (309€ to 209€) I wasn't sure if I wanted to invest in it yet. I'm going back to get it! Can't stop thinking about it. And honestly I only got my red Mango bag because it reminded me of it.
Instead a bought this really cute Stella McCartney x Adidas collection sports top which was reduced to 15€.

ALL PEPE JEANS EVERYTHING

Lois Opoku Pepe Jeans London lisforlois
This is one of the looks I created during the Pepe Jeans Event. I immediately fell in love with this two piece set with the graphic print made of old school fotos and what looked like newspaper excerpts I their really gorgeous showroom amongst all the other pieces we got to discover. The lemon colored leather jacket (colorful leather jackets are my Must Haves for this summer!) was a stunner and I loved pairing it with the two piece. There's a second look I created which I'll show you soon. Hopefully the weather is going to be warm again soon. (hello summer?! where art thou?) And then it's finally no tights, colorful leather jackets and cute little two piece sets weather!

RED DRESS AND LACE BUNNY EARS

Red Dress Bunny Ears Lois Opoku lisforlois
Hope you guys are enjoying your easter weekend so far! I wanted to share an easter themed look with you guys and finally put on this amazing red dress. It's one of the dresses I got at the ASOS sample sale, which is a total dream. I love the tulip shape of it. And honestly I wish my hips were always this wide, because I believe the sexiest curve on a woman's body are her hips. The earrings were a gift from Lola & Grace, because I was one of their weekly winners for the Instagram competition (you guys seemed to love that picture as well! Click). They've got Swaroski stones in them and are a super great statement piece. Btw I'm totally into the combination of a vibrant red and rose gold accessories since this look. I don't even mind that I mixed it with a pair of gold heels.
As for my lace bunny ears? I will never get enough of those..
Happy Easter!

THE NIKE FREE 5.0 PRE-LAUNCH EXPERIENCE

Nike Free Lois Opoku lisforlois Nike Free 5.0 Launch Berlin lisforlois

I visited the Nike Free 5.0 Pre Launch experience together with the Nike Team. Everyone was welcome to the event, given that you showed up in any pair of Nike Frees. Luckily I own a pair, my only shoes I use for gym and love ever since I got them. The event was fun! They had a photo wall inspired by the new Nike Free 5.0 campaign, drinks and snacks. You were able to try on the new Nike Free 5.0 and even hit the block for a quick run with one of the trainers in the shoes. I even got to design my own pair of Nike Free 5.0 with Nike ID. It took my forever to design my shoes because of the limitless options and color ways Nike ID offers. But finally I decided on something.
Can't wait to hold my pair in my hands and see the results!
I hope they'll look something like on screen!
