It’s that time of the year where everything slows down. Unfortunately the economy tries to push against this natural rhythm and while our bodies want to become slower and have less energy we feel exhausted pretty soon. Therefore it’s the right time for some recreation – away from the Christmas madness.
Balance
With sundowns at almost 3pm it’s hard to be productive… or even stay awake. So, luckily I spent some days at the Falkensteiner Balance Resort Stegersbach to give my body some rest. Okay – I have to admit I was commissioned to create a video there, so it was not only for recreational purposes :) But I did have some time to relax as well – check out the video here.
Stars
Close to Vienna this 5 star resort is here to help you get away from the stressful and loud Christmas time. Excellent food, wellness treatments and a well tempered pool area are here to recharge your batteries.
Dressing up
I also love to get dressed up nicely for dinner in a hotel restaurant – not only to show some respect to your partner and surroundings. And luckily the “we are all cool kids by looking like trashcans” era is almost over so you can get back to a nice clean shirt and wear a shiny watch on your wrist.
Designer to watch
Speaking about clothes – you know my love for underdog designers. This time I want to talk about Lutz Huelle, who is maybe not so much of an underdog anymore. The designer was forged in London’s famous Central St Martin’s fashion school were he still works as a tutor.
He worked for Maison Margiela (like pretty much every upcoming designer these days) and also as a consultant for MaxMara. Recently he was announced as new creative director for Delpozo – a Spanish luxury house. So we can be excited what he will do for the company! Maybe he has the same impact like J.W.Anderson has for Loewe?
