can you believe that the long-awaited festive season is actually over? It's time to get rid of the decorations, remove the Xmas trees, get back on track and focus on work and university. January also means that it's time to watch award shows and discuss Oscar nominees. Wes Anderson's incredible masterpiece The Grand Budapest Hotel is getting the credit it deserves. He's the most unique and talented director of his genre - Seriously guys, this film will change your view on art and cinematography forever. I obviously have to mention our beloved Sir Cumberbatch, every Cumberbitch is cheering for you Beau! ;)
Our favourite stores already celebrate the (very early) beginning of spring: Dolce & Gabbana show us some stunning florals, while Chanel and Dior keep it light and casual. Here is a little peek into Munich's luxurious shopping world, can you spot some ultimate spring 2015 trends? ;)

Welcome to the beginning of the annual Oscar week! I'm more than excited for all the gowns, jewels and obviously the winners. Will Leo go and get it this time? I hope so! Actually he is the only 39 year old, who already deserves something like a special platinum Oscar. Yes, Leo is my ultimate crush of 2013. The Great Gatsby, Django Unchained, Wolf of Wall Street, seriously just give him that thing! But then there's Matthew McConaughey, who changed his image as an actor with one of the most powerful performances of the decade. And girls, we melt when Christian Bale appears on the screen. So it's still Leo, right? Or is it Christian, or Matthew... But hey, when it comes to the Best Actor in a Supporting Role there is only one, right? Bradley Cooper... or Jared or Jonah ;)
What is your all time favourite Oscar moment? I don't even have to spend a second thinking... Adrien Brody winning the Oscar for his incredible work in Roman Polanski's The Pianist in 2003. This man is everything! He is the most incredible actor I've ever seen on screen. He has the most intense on-camera presence and that face... beautiful. Adrien will always be my number one crush, he's perfect!
Girls, do you need more convincing arguments? Just check him out on any red carpet. He rocks the finest suits, the most luxurious watches and everything is just flawless from head to toe. Brody looks like a masterpiece. I love a man who loves to be the best version of himself. Only a man like that deserves a woman who does the same. I know that the '03 Oscar was definitely not the last one. We just need another legendary director, a good plot and the perfect role. Maybe The Grand BudapestHotel? The Pianist was his movie, nobody could have done it better. He was also excellent in Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Limited, the 90's thriller Oxygen and ... Manolete. Manolete is probably one of my favourite movies ever. Honestly I'm not into all those over sugared romantic dramas but this one is unbeatable. The gorgeous beauty Penelope Cruz, the setting, the costume design, the music... A true story told in the most beautiful and artistic way. This movie way highly Oscar worthy. Oh Adrien, vous êtes incroyable! ;)
Will you guys be up all night? I see you guys tomorrow discussing the best/ worst dressed. On which side will Steven Tyler end up this time? ;)
Have a great evening
Love
