Schuhe!

Nein.
Keine Angst.
Ich werde kein Fashion Blogger. Das überlasse ich meinen Freunden Olschok und Floh.

Über “le coq sportif” und “pantofola d’oro” angefixt und mutiger geworden (immerhin waren Pantofola d'oro Fortezza neon green flash 2012 grdas Pantofola d’Oro in grau mit leuchtgrün Fortezza neon – green flash und ich habe auch die neon schnürbänder verwendet) habe ich jetzt mal den Entschluß gefasst ein paar retro Sneaker von Adidas zu kaufen.
Ich bin ja ein Kind der 7ziger und somit legitimiert die Schuhe meiner Kindheit nochmal zu kaufen.

Dementsprechend bin ich kürzlich nach Mailand gereist.
Und mit leeren Händen wiedergekommen. Dafür gab es in Birmingham diese Woche Erfolge.

Mal sehen wo das noch alle hinführen soll. Ich hoffe das wird jetzt keine neue Sucht.

In dem Sinne

PS: der schwarze steht auf einem Kupfertresen in dem “Wetherspoon Pub” im Birmingham Airport. Sowas ist auch sehr cool 😉 Aber für daheim weiss ich noch nicht recht wo ich die Bar einbauen soll. Keller hab ich ja keinen.

PPS: mich juckt ja ein Top Ten Hi. Davon habe ich als Teenager auch diverse verschlissen.

Small pit falls if posting to Facebook

I am not a SM (social media) guru like my friends Florian and Heiko from Kunkel & Kohl but I am a frequent and critical user of IT systems.
There is one thing I noticed when following Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo on Facebook.
Both brands are doing similar things they frequently post images of shoes – obviously. I like it a lot because thats why I am following a brand. However Jimmy Choo posts celebrities caught wearing Choos (forgive me) and Louboutin only posts their shoes.

Why am I mentioning this?
Because Jimmy Choo consistently fails to bring the main actor, the shoe, on the picture unless I click to enlarge. But why would I? I’ve seen the actress looking stunning so I move on. OK the name of the shoe is shown (Anouk). But how do I make a connection if I do not see it. I mean I do not see the product in below. Ah yes and on the desktop its the same. I really like the idea of bragging who is wearing your shoes. Thats all fine. But please keep stop hiding your amazing creations.

Louboutin makes it absolutely right. The shoe is in the center. There is a story being told an everything but the shoe / product is in the center of interest. And it gets me even interested because I now want to know the name of the shoe. So I start going to their site and look around.

Travel socially

I extended my business stay in South Africa by a few days on a private basis.
Since I wanted to see a few things around I asked colleagues on how to organize my trip. They told me: get a car. Go drive and if you feel like it get a hotel from Trip Advisor.
I was curious but I took it as advice from a trusted person and did as told.
I have to say. It was a really good advice. I never used a “social” travel tool before.
