There are things you either absolutely love or totally can't stand. This also applies for clothes, such as these dresses: When I found them on tumblr the other day I immediately fell in love with them. I googled every possible way of describing them to find out where to buy them, but Google only came up with ways to dress cats, which wasn't quite the thing I was looking for. I even saved the picture on my laptop to then zoom on the price tag, but unfortunately, that didn't work either. So I asked around, but the only thing I heared from my friends was 'What the hell is that? I probably wouldn't even wear them for a costume party, never mind in public!'. Well, I know that this isn't for everyone, but I would totally wear them! What do you think? And where can I buy them?
Lots of love,
Josie

Random - My addiction to Soft Grunge
I don't know about you, but I have this absolute obsession with soft grunge pictures. My cousin asked me what that actually was, and I wasn't even able to explain. I really can't tell what it really is - I just absolutely love those pictures. I am spending hours reblogging them on tumblr (if you want you can follow me here), and I am so addicted it almost annoys me because I don't even know what I'm actually doing on there all the time. But as I started to love those soft grunge pictures, I began to dress more like the girls in the pictures too. It's just so inspiring! I love boots and oversize shirts and jumpers and jackets and I really like to look a bit grungy. And more natural...I realized that when I watched High School Musical 3 with a friend last week. I love Vanessa Hudgens, but she's just a bit too...perfect. Her hair and her face and her eyes and her clothes and just everything about her is so perfect. I want to be a little less perfect and a little more me. That's why I really like Miley Cyrus' style. I absolutely adore her (well, her new hair style is debatible), but apart from that she has a great style. Natural, grungey, a bit rebellious - I just love it. Plus she doesn't care what others think of her, and that is something everyone should do. I stopped giving a fuck and started living and dressing the way I wanted to. Miley Cyrus, these pictures and the style - they just show self confidence. That you are happy with yourself no matter what others say. And I think that is the reason why I love them so goddamn much.

Hair - Dip Dying
I love dip dyed hair! But I think it depends on your hair style what colour looks best. For long, light blonde hair, I find light pink very nice (like in the picture). Shorter, dark or hazelnut brown hair looks fabulous with blonde ends, and red-haired fashionistas jazz up their hair style with a warm dark brown. It's an easy way to change your style when you don't know what to do with your hair (or when you don't want such a huge change like cutting your hair by 20 cm). I normally prefer natural colours, but I make an exception for really long (!!), light blonde hair, which just looks amazing with light pink ends. It wouldn't look too nice if you dyed it in a really dark colour like black or dark brown; the difference between the two colours would be too big. So whatever you like best, keep an eye on the difference between the colours. In doubt just ask your hair stylist, friends, parents...or me!

Fashion - A way to stay warm and stylish
I found this picture on tumblr, and I totally fell in love with it. It reminded me of last year's autumn, when I went camping with my friends...This jumper is just the perfect way to stay stylish AND warm. The important thing is that the jumper must be massively oversize, so you can wrap it around your body. You can either take one of your boyfriend's jumpers (so cute. Plus it smells of him, so you can think of him wherever you go) or, if you don't have a boyfriend (such as me), look in your dad's wardrobe and I am pretty sure you'll find one. If you still aren't successful, you can buy them at topshop.com or riverisland.com. Or ask your Nan to knit you one! They always look the best anyway, plus you will have a unique model!

Music - Flex
One of the benefits of going to a boarding school is that you meet loads of people who ALL tell you about their favourite music and loads of times it is actually so good that you just cannot stop listening to it. :)
Flex is a great example of such music. One of his songs - "Nothing To Say" is acutally the inspiration for our blog's title. Besides being definitly good looking (look at the picture!!) he makes great music, a bit of rap and pop maybe?
What he definitly managed to do is to make music that we, Josie and I, both enjoy! She is hopelessly romantic and hates all the dubstep and house and also the sligthly more Indie music that I listen to while I just can't stay all the lovesongs she is listening to ;).
Our favourite Flex songs are "Playground" and "Nothing To Say".
Watch "Playground" :))
Just watch some of his videos, they are not only incredibly well produced but are also just fun to watch, (is it that hard to put some vegetables into a bowl? REALLY?).
Thanks for making our past days awesome!

Fashion - The thing about Skinny Jeans
I'm always getting a bit mad when I read things like "You can hide your skinny jeans at the back of your closet now, they are so last season!" in fashion magazines. Why the fuck are they last season? I see people wearing skinny jeans everywhere I go, and I love them! They match with absolutely everything, they are comfy, they are easy to get. Sure, there are other types of jeans coming. But never say that skinny jeans are last season! They might not be the only type of jeans you can buy anymore, but they are definitely still worn. They have always been worn, and they will always be worn. Just as simple as that. So I won't hesitate to buy skinny jeans this season, and next season, and the season after that...despite all the fashion magazines that are telling me I should hide them. I would rather frame them and put them up all around my house.
Lots of love,

Fashion - Late Summer Magic
Don't you find late summer as magical as me? I totally love it. It's probably the time of the year I like the most. I'm a total summer girl, nothing makes me happier than being able to wear my favourite sundress, while I'm out with the girls for some summer shopping. But late summer just feels so...magical to me. It's the time when I get back from vacation, and all the post cards and letters and catalogues are lying on the table waiting to get sorted. I usually look at the post cards first, then grab all the catalogues and won't come out of my room for hours because I am looking through all the new autumn stuff. And even though I enjoy summer so much and I love sun and ice cream and hotpants, I am so incredibly excited to go do some autumn shopping! Because with fashion & the seasons, that is a thing for itself. If you asked me what season of the year I liked the most, you would get two answers: I like the weather best in summer, definitely, but the autumn fashion is just heaven. Not too much to wear (like in winter), nor almost nothing at all, like it's the case in summer. And I could die for all the trench coats and boots and knit stuff and so on (if I listed everything I would probably not be ready by tomorrow...). And late summer is just the best time for autumn shopping. You don't feel all 'OMG it's summer let's wear hotpants everyday even if it's not even that hot!', but at the same time, you're not quite ready to give up wearing skirts and dresses just yet. Late summer is just like twilight (nope, not the book.) - it's not quite light but not totally dark either. And twilight does have this magical something, don't you think? And I find the sitting-in-my-room-shifting-through-the-new-autumn-collection-catalogues-for-hours pretty amazing. OK, maybe you think I'm totally insane right now. But isn't that also a good thing? If we were all the same, the world would be a pretty boring place. So I'll go get my catalogues. If you don't hear from me for a while: I'm stuck trying to find out whether I like wine red or coral pink better this season.

Hi guys!
So, this is our new blog! We will try to update it as often as we can, when we are not busy studying for the IB...
We are Josie and Victoria, two girls from Germany, but going to school in the UK and we love travelling! This is a blog about style, fashion, hair styles, manicure, music, countries, etc...we have plenty to write about! And we hope that you guys find it interesting, so we don't just keep talking to ourselves...
At the moment we are in our second year of IB, and it's only 8 months to go until the great finish! Kinda scary to be honest...but sooooo exciting aswell! Imagine all the fit guys at uni...aww! And as Frances Fisher alias Ruth DeWitt Bukater in Titanic says: The purpose of university is to find a suitable husband. Well, if not a husband, a simple boyfriend would do it aswell...At least for Victoria, because I am already busy cooking weekend meals for my boyfriend (who has no cooking or washing up skills whatsoever) in boarding school (not that I have a life or anything...). College life can be quite exciting aswell, you know...
Well, this was only a little insight into our lives, more will follow!
Lots of love,
Josie & Victoria
