Summer Must - Haves: Mules - DES & JEN
Eigentlich haben wir Mules schon im letzten Jahr gesehen, doch dieser Schuh kann immer neu erfunden werden. Gerade in Kombination mit lässigen Jeans, aber auch Kleidern und Röcken werten sie jedes Outfit auf und verleihen einen besonderen Touch. Was macht sie besonders? Wir haben uns auf Anhieb in dieses schwarze und weiße Paar von Högl verliebt, da sie klassisch aber trotzdem sehr modern sind. Mit den breiten Riemen bieten sie Halt und sind trotzdem ausgefallen, setzen einen Akzent im gesamten Look. Wie kombiniert man Mules: Mom Jeans sind schon lange im Trend – mit lässigem Strick ist das Outfit schon fertig. Doch auch edle Culottes und Kleider bieten eine perfekte Grundlage für die absoluten Summer Must Have Schuhe. _________________________________________________________________________ Even though we have seen these shoes last year already, this model can be reinvented endlessly. Especially in combination with casual jeans, but also with s the dresses or skirts they add a special touch to every outfit. Was makes them special? We fell in love with these black and white pairs by Högl straight away, because they are classy and yet very modern. The wide straps provide stability when walking and they have a very unique look, and complete the …
Valamar Collection Imperial Hotel - Rab Island - DES & JEN
In July we spent couple of days at the Valamar Collection Imperial Hotel and really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful place… Some general information: The Valamar Collection Imperial Hotel designed for adults was established in 1927 as one of the first hotels on Rab island. It’s a great place for those wanting a luxurious getaway from the hustle and bustle of daily life. 🙂 Location: The hotel is located close to the old town of Rab next to the exotic town park. We reached the island in approximately fifteen minutes by ferry boat (Jadrolinija) from Stinica (mainland Croatia). On the ferry boat we made friends with this amazingly beautiful cat called Rudy haha. Departures are every one to two hours. The hotel has a big parking lot for the hotel guests, which also includes an electric car charging station. Accomodation/Rooms: The rooms are very modern and clean. We stayed in two different rooms. The V Level Premium Junior Suite (biggest of all rooms) and the V Level Superior Double Room. The latter one has a balcony, which makes your stay definitely more pleasant. We recommend to choose a room with a seaside view as the other side is facing …
Cruise 2019 Recap - DES & JEN
Louis Vuitton ‘A trilogy of Palm Springs, Rio and Kyoto’ – that is what Nicolas Ghesquiére said about the collection shortly after the show. The mix of traditional silhouettes and the modern interpretation of the heritage of the brand create beautiful designs. Some of the influences were martial arts, nature and an urban flair – and just like Japan, which was one of the main sources of inspiration, LV was able to protect their heritage while leading in design and creation. One of the many highlights of this collection is a blazer jacket in earthy tones, worn with a skirt and over-knee boots; this outfits creates the perfect balance of traditional elements through garments or colours in combination with modern pieces in unexpected shades and forms. Credits: LOUIS VUITTON Women Collection Fall-Winter 2016/2017 © Louis Vuitton Malletier – All rights reserved” Dior Inspired by the Escaramuza riders or Mexico, and the women that took it upon themselves to make the all-male sports a female tradition in bright colours and big skirts, Maria Grazia Chiuri combined silhouettes of the 1950s with the vibrancy of the Mexican riders. The key elements include strong X-Silhouettes created by wide belts, high-waisted skirts and the …
Luštica Bay - Montenegro - DES & JEN
Hello lovelies, As some of you may know from our Instagram Stories, we were able to visit the Lustica Bay area in Montenegro, which is a new luxury area with villas, apartments, a harbour, cafes and bars. The official opening of the area will be in July of this year, which is why it is an amazing get-away for the late summer or fall. With the entire area, including all buildings, houses, pools and the beach area being completely new, the standard is pure luxury. We loved sipping coffee on the sun deck of our hotel, walking along the 4km promenade of the beach and enjoying the delicious local food. The luxury resort has practically risen from nothing, and offers everything you might need – the beautiful coastline, the beach, incredible food, luxurious hotels and rustic apartments. One of the hotspots we visited was the Ribarsko Selo restaurant, which offers organic and homemade food – which was just delicious! Another highlight was the boat ride on the Golden Osprey yacht to the blue lagoon. The Golden Osprey is one of the finest sports fisher boats in the world and offers an amazing interior area with bedrooms, a dining area and …

30th birthday! - DES & JEN
Hello loves, Shortly before kicking of the new year, we are sharing with you a more personal blog post. It is all about our 30th birthday. We celebrated this special day at Kulinarium 7, our family-owned restaurant in Vienna which specializes in Dalmatian cuisine (Crotian food). It was definitely a night to remember. We had our closest family and friends with us. Some of them made it even to come from abroad. It was wonderful to have them all with us. Our day started with lots of preparations, as you can imagine. Of course, we wanted to look perfect for our “ big day” and got our make-up done by Julian who works at the Mac Cosmetics Counter at the newly re-opened Douglas store at Mariahilfer Straße in Vienna.

H & M Conscious Exclusive FW18 - DES & JEN
Hi everyone, I am sharing with you a little article today about a new editorial we’ve had the pleasure to work on together with Flo Moshammer for the first ever H & M Conscious Exclusive FW18 Collection. For so many years, we have had the pleasure to work with the brand and see their development from season to season, introducing always new, creative ideas. This collection drives sustainability and involves recycled cashmere created from leftover yarn and velvet made from recycled polyester sourced from used uniforms. Inspired by a lost fragment of an ancient tapestry and historical artifacts, the collection is full of dramatic, yet romantic silhouettes with a modern edge. To me, the Conscious exclusive Collections have always been one of a kind. Even more, we are thrilled to show you our photos that we took at Rathaus in Vienna. On that note, the H&M Conscious Exclusive FW18 will only be available online, launching on September 27th at hm.com. Make sure to check it out. 😉 Speak to you soon. Xoxo Des Photos: Flo Moshammer
