Here are my presents for my family & friends.
Get inspired:

Advent wreath: do it yourself.

This year I created my advent wreath:

bambis by hirschglück

A friend of mine also did one by herself.
The wreath is by rice.dk, the bambis by hirschglück. Then she sprayed the wreath silver, so that it looks more glamorous:

Ralf Möller

The picture with Ralf Möller is one of my favorites. In reality he is even more attractive and really friendly. 

He is a German and American actor and former competitive bodybuilder. Ralf is best known for his role of Hagen in Gladiator (2000) and many more. Furthermore, he is a friend of Arnold Schwarzenegger and is often photographed with him.

Thank you for the talk and your nice words!

Thank you for your nice words!

Rebecca of GNTM was nice and in reality even more beautiful. Thank you for this picture!

Then I also met Monica Ivancan and Axel Schulz.

Monica is an IT-Girl, model and actor. She has also been in FHM, GQ, Maxim and in the Playboy. She was soo nice and funny! Thank you for the cute picture!

Hangar 7.

The Hangar-7 of Red Bull in Salzburg, Austria, has become what it is today because of these structural requirements: a place where technology, art and entertainment come face to face and naturally complement each other, and of course a garage that any airplane would love to call home.
Much of the fascination of Hangar-7 lies in its architecture. If you are standing inside the vaults of Heaven seem to open up above the historic aircraft and exhibits. If you look at the construction from outside, the similarity to a wing which radiates uncommon dynamism and weightlessness is striking, despite the 1,200 tonnes of steel and 380 tonnes of special glass used in the construction.

If you have a detailed interest, read here more.

An exhibition of a very special kind of art is currently showing at Hangar-7: the high art of Formula 1 design. Marvel at the structure and internal life of the Red Bull racing cars from close quarters – from the very first model to the current, successful cars.

Hangaris Botanicus:
They are rare, requiere high-maintenance and come from all over the world. What is meant are not the aeroplanes of the flying bulls, but rather the plants in Hangar 7.

Hangar-7 is not an easy place in which to showcase art: 7,000 square metres of glass around a steel frame, a wing profile of almost 100 metres in length. Everything breathes transparency, light and weightlessness. There are no walls, no supporting surfaces and the light changes constantly with the position of the sun. However, it is precisely this unique atmosphere that makes Hangar-7 one of the liveliest art galleries in the world.

Relax, pause a while and enjoy. The Carpe Diem Lounge-Café at Hangar-7 immediately next to the Flying Bulls' awe-inspiring historical aircraft transforms a simple espresso into an all-round sensory experience.

The Mayday Bar not only serves exquisite international cocktails, but has also put recent scientific and nutritional findings to good use to create some truly tasty dishes. Smart Food in the Mayday Bar!Would you like to be at your best, feel great and look fantastic into the bargain day in, day out? Who wouldn’t?!!

 And now some mixed pictures:

Bouquet.

LV - Wonderland.

 

Everytime I passes the shop windows of Louis Vuitton, I can't believe my eyes..

I mean look at this wonderful, extravagant decoration! This is more than just showing the products, this a LV-wonderland.

Every idea behind this design is really phenomenal. I think it needs hard to work to get this.
But what should I say - it's LV. They've got the money.

Nevertheless, I adore these shop windows, everytime a little bit more.

Rick Genest will challenge your sensibilities about what you believe to be beautiful.

By 19 he was committed to his full body tattoo project and stayed loyal to Montreal artist Frank Lewis, who designed the majority of his body over the next six years. 

To date Genest has spent over $17,000.00 on tattooing his body and will continue until his tapestry is finished. 

In this moment, he has serendipitously become the ‘it’ muse for anyone who believes in a brave new world without judgment.

His international thrust into the spotlight is a true rags to riches story.

Nicola Formichetti, Lady Gaga’s personal stylist and the creative director of the legendary Paris based fashion house Theirry Mugler, was instantly fascinated.

The two clicked instantly and Formichetti invited Genest to Paris to model in the Mugler men’s fashion show.

Formichetti then cast Genest in his biggest role to date; a pronounced cameo in Lady Gaga’s video ‘Born This Way’ filmed in New York City.

His relationship with Formichetti has him pose for such magazines as GQ, Vanity Fair and Vogue Hommes Japan, as well as a collaboration with the juggernaut of the fashion photography world – the renowned —L’Enfant terrible Terry Richardson. 
And also the fashion magazine shooted him:
