we are the robots, dumdumdumdum.

i've found so many crazy shoes lately and now i can't wait to share. ( finding prices for some of these is a pain in the ass, so i decided to not include them in this case. which is on most of them, haha. damn slow internet. )

coclico ndakinna $388.00 - i really like how the front spat is attached to the sole. and the heel isn't that high so i could still walk!

prouenza schouler wedges ( not in store yet ). totally to die for! it reminds me of the sea because of its wavy heel form!

pierre hardy wedges ( prize not found ). well these are obviously pretty hard to walk in, but the straps, the colours! these are made for summer.

chloé wedges from 2007 ( the prize was also nowhere to be found ). aaaaaah! first: colooooouuurss! second: the wedge is beyond genious. like a step shoe!

clementine shoe ( website doesn't work for me ). so tell me. is this shoe awesome? it's a wooden wonder! zipper action!

acne belville ( 440 EUR ). the geometric of this wondrous boot totally knocks me down.

acne atacoma 440 EUR ( pic by nubby twiglet ). i still love these over everything i've seen lately. this is 'i'm gonna walk over you'-attitude!

is it a shoe actually? or just an optical illusion? either way, this is so futuristic and crazy, that i'd like to slip in and walk straight to mars, venus, and, lo and behold, i even wouldn't spare a black hole with these! i have no clue who made this, but this guy ( or woman ) needs a nobel prize for this, haha.

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

november: thuringian forest.

the day we visited the thuringian forest near luisenthal we would also receive the death notice of my cousin. while the day in luisenthal was pretty magic - i even found a goat skull to take home for my not so fast growing skull collection - the time we got home and received the phone call of my grandmother, everything went dull. we always had hoped for him to recover - over the course of his sickness there were multiple times we'd thought he was on his way up, but that also counted for the times it was clear that the cancer was severe and probably not defeatable. in the end he fought four years, but he couldn't conquer. his constant optimism & general good will wasn't enough as his body decided to give up on him. i'm still thinking a lot about him, he was such a good natured guy, always seeing the good in everything and everyone. it's so strange to know that he's never going to be on any future family party gathering again. we discussed so many things whe...
