Street style: the Germans

Whom do I know, who wears what trend and what designer look? Truth be told, my favourite guessing game is "who has been offered what designer piece?"
When it comes to social networking, we always seem to care more about our own tribe. Who has what relationship status? Who's friends with who? Today "online stalking", or the trend of gathering too much information about people via Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat, has become an indispensable part of our reality.
After a couple of wine glasses, scrolling and giggling, we're not even sure how we have ended up there.
"Are you doing instagram forensics again?" my friend always jokes while I go on about theories of association between the state of mind of an online profile, the person's relationship status and their choice of hashtag or image.
There is something very human about looking into someone's life through the digital (or print) keyhole and though it's rather simple to do these days, it's not a new phenomenon really. The "events and celebrity" pages of newspapers and magazines have always been among the most popular. We seem to be perpetually curious about who makes it on the page among those celebrities. Is there anyone I know? Am I in there?
I am always happy to discover German colleagues in the photos, regardless whether I know them personally or not. Here's a selection of my latest findings:

Modepilot ist Deutschlands erster Modeblog. Mit seiner GrĂŒndung in 2007 war und ist er Vorreiter der unabhĂ€ngigen Mode-Berichterstattung. Noch heute wird die Seite leidenschaftlich von MitgrĂŒnderin Kathrin Bierling gefĂŒhrt. Sie ist eine ausgebildete und erfahrene Journalistin, die zunĂ€chst bei der Financial Times lernte und arbeitete und dann einige Jahre bei der WirtschaftsWoche beschĂ€ftigt war, bevor sie die Seiten Harpersbazaar.de, Elle.de und InStyle.de verantwortete. An Modepilot liebt sie, dass sie die Seite immer wieder neu erfinden muss, um am Puls der Zeit zu bleiben. Worin sie und ihre Autoren sich stets treu bleiben: Den Leser ernst nehmen, nicht sich selbst.
