♥ Winning a pink camera from the Essence Contest ♥

Yesterday a mysterious packet arrived and to my utter shock and surprise it contained this precious pink camera from Canon.

It first I could not figure out where it was from, because there was no letter in there and I did not recognize the sending company. Perhaps it was a gift? Or a mislead order? But the postal sticker clearly stated my name and my address. After several hours of phoning half of my relatives to say thank you (they where even more surprised than I) without success, I finally googled the sender and suffered my second shock:
Last December I took part at the EU-wide creativity contest "Be a trendmaker" to hand in new ideas for potential product lines for the make-up company Essence cosmetics (reread the post *here*). And under the prizes were make-up sets, vouchers, Ipods and ...yay cameras! So the secret of the pink camera was solved and overjoyed I wrote a thank-you-letter to the Essence headquarter. I am so happy!!!! (And it's PINK!!!)
Here is the collage I handed in in December, along with several ideas for a possible make-up line (e.g. pastel eyeshadow colours, golden glittery lip gloss, soft pink nail polish etc.):
(The theme is "Royal Princess - The crown is yours!")

Love,

Kiss Kiss by Coco

This outfit was inspired by Lookbook and Coco
Chanel alike. Watch the Coco movie, I can
highly recommend it!

Lilly wears: (blazer only, blouse orsay, skirt vintage, tights+hat ca,
boots marco polo, necklace ebelin, rose rossmann,
earrings madonna).

My favourite hairstyle at the moment. I cannot braid my hair

at the side, because I have a stair cut and all the strands
stick out of the braid instantly.

New pink skirt :D.

Black leather boots (Marco Polo)

A quick outfit post: May I introduce my new boots? They are perfect for the cold and snowy weather. I bought the skirt at the Vintage Fashion market last December and this was my first time wearing it. Two photos are a little blurry, the camera has it's probs sometimes. The necklace is pinned together by a safety pin to keep it in place. The rose is one of my favourite accessories, even if I cannot wear it often.
I watched the Coco Chanel movie a few months ago and was impressed how she managed to fight successfully against all the traditions of her time. Picture courtesy by FJ. I wish you a great weekend! Tomorrow is my test, so I will be occupied for the following 24 hours...
Love,

Mon petit manteau rose

Lilly wears: manteau ca, hat hm, bag budapest, jeans mister&lady, gloves vintage, boots varese.

Aujourd'hui madame rêve de Paris...
May I proudly introduce? My soft pink manteau. Wearing it makes you feel like a princess^^. Shooting took place pre-snowing. I opted for an outdoor shooting, because the usual 'yellow door' setting is out of the question. You guess what happened? During shooting we had like fifteen people walking by or directly ran into the picture ( including bikes, dogs and mums with their little children). Under this conditions I wished to be back inside-LOL! Big thanks to FJ, who did his best ("Wah, it's blurry again...pleeeze take one more! The sun is so strong-my eyes are closed!!"). Fashion blogging has its hardships!!
My friends refer to this hat as "the cauliflower"- that says it all (German: Blumenkohl).
Love,

Yeah that's love, baby

Sweet lace, ruffles and ribbons from Heaven^^.

The fashion equation: sequins + pearls + tulle skirt = perfect outfit!

And the delicious party food to get along with the outfits! Yummy. Source

*** SONG: Kylie Minogue - (Can't stop) Giving you up ***

Hi cupcakes! Let's say life it what happens to you when you try to set up a plan and the moment you have all pretty organized...something comes up unexspected and you can forget the whole planning thing. When will I finally acknowledge that?? I went shopping today and spent a wonderful time seeing all the latest pieces at the stores. As it is really late at the moment and I am half asleep, please be patient for them to be posted on Saturday evening.
I totally heart the clothes in the collage!! This negliee...the skirt...this shirt...awww. They are my top 3 pink favourites by H&M at the moment. My friends keep making fun of me, because I appreciate pink that much...come on gals, it is one of the most beautiful colours in the world!
Pink rules the world - it's as simple as that!
Kiss and goodnight,
