IBIZA PART 1

I'm back from my gradtrip to Ibiza and it was really one of the best times of my life. Days started at 2pm with all inclusive fatty foods and drinks, non-stop touristy photos, table tennis matches, the beach, massages and overall slouching on the coaches. Evenings lasted until 6 in the morning at Amnesia and Pacha, with Swedish House Mafia, Chase & Status, Deadmau5, Calvin Harris. All too good and all went by too quickly. Here starts the marathon of (day)photos taken during the awesomest week ever.















I'm leaving for Beijing in one hour, so I'm scheduling a couple of these IBZ posts until I install VPN to try and access facebook/blogger etc from good old china. If it doesn't work, I hope you all have the best summers and I'll be back August third. If not, this is just cheesily embarrassing. See you!

a different style on the street

Spotted: artist/hamster Joanna Zhou having a fluffy time frolicking down the streets of Vienna. All for a creative purpose of course.

snake bite



Creepily intriguing accessories that look/feel like mini snakes. They would double-up neatly as Halloween props. Both from H&M.

so this is it i guess

My last post before I leave for Ibiza tonight! I've scheduled some posts and marked them quite clearly - just to remind you that I'm not being heartless not replying to your comments hehe. I'll definitely update between landing and leaving again next week. Hope my automated self is alright to get along with, and enjoy your week, dearies. kisses and bear hugs, vicky.

mini photobomb

this week has been a mix of photoshoots, art gallery visits, friend's birthday dinner at tgif's (seriously workin my bikini-bod with that cheesy bacon cheeseburger), the indiemag afterparty, fleamarkets, catch-ups over coffee overdosing and way too many episodes of modern family. i'm trying to cram 6 weeks worth of vienna-ness into a week before i leave and it's getting tiring. lot's of run-on posts coming up peeps.




simple errand outfit from earlier in the week. I wore cycle shorts in an attempt to eradicate possibility of any skankiness in the shortness of the dress.


magazine t-shirt from t-post! they sent this to me over a year ago and i've hardly worn it...mainly because it has pictures of naked men in the front. always a pleasure to walk around proudly with. just ask the grannies i 'omg'ed.



spotted this smart and quirkily dressed boy around museumsquartier the other day after a photoshoot. i saw him when the tram passed and when i got off i made a beeline towards him. his named is Darko Lukac, he's 22 years old and he's this year's winner of the Austrian Style Awards. knack for accessorizing is evident, as is the perfect balance of everything in this outfit.

little maggie

I had a test shoot with my little sister yesterday. She's getting so good at posing - better than some agency models I've worked with - and I get to be as bossy as I like! She looks quite disgruntled in most of these because she's in that brace-face stage of her life atm.










Sad news: this week will be the last of my blogging for 6 weeks at least since I'm first going away on my grad trip to Ibiza (!) and then immediately when i get back i'm off to Beijing (!!!) where Blogger, Facebook etc are all blocked. *sadface* If any of you know how to surpass the Blogger-block in china, pleeease tell me. I will be very very grateful.

chinese fashion showcase



f21 romper | vagabond gladiators | mango bag

Last night was the Chinese Fashion Showcase, where four young designers from Shanghai presented their collections. Very contemp. takes on the more traditional tendency of styles in China, and a lot of unique shapes.








Designers: Hiu Man Chau, Na(too), Judy Hua, Keeven Zhai

into the blue



vintage dress | levi's mens shirt | h+m top and necklace | minnetonka boots | mango bag

midi skirt + boots = calves that seem too short.
quick snaps of yesterday's outfit at a friend's bbq. it's so unbelievably hot today that i think i might just overdose on icecream. went to the fleamarket in the morning and now i'm getting ready for dinner by the canal and then going to see a chinese designers showcase. never mind my monotonous writing today, i'm just in a rush!

mustard and ketchup




h+m dress and cycle shorts | belle sandals | rings from markets and primark

Some more rooftop frolicking from yesterday while trying not to be depressed about the permanently spitting skies. I have too many posts lined up, this is getting ridiculous. I've been up to a lot of productive shenanigans lately though - some of which may be revealed - so I'm pessimistically content. Hope you've all been good!

ELEVEN FESTIVAL - THE FIRST



Stefanel jeans jacket | Forever 21 romper | Camper shoes | Zara bag

Went on a little introductory excursion to the 11 Festival today, with dearest Leonie. It's a week-long series of events here in Vienna revolving around the two interconnecting worlds of fashion and photography, and we started off by going to the Liska/Guerilla stores. Prepare yourself for a massive photobomb.
