I can’t believe it’s almost August. But it is. And that means that Fashion Week will be here before I know it, so it’s time for me to start thinking about how I want to transition my look.

All summer, I’ve stayed pretty true to the coral lip and lined eyes that I fell in love with when I saw Kate Moss’ Topshop shoot.

(By the way, thanks to all of you who recommended MAC’s Lady Danger in the comments on that post. I’m already on my second tube.)

And now, I think I’ve found my first new look for fall thanks to Diane Kruger at the Inglourious Basterds premiere earlier today in Berlin.

We’ve never made the trek to Berlin Fashion Week (coming up in July). But we hear it’s pretty groovy and a helluva time. The people over at Revolve did however go on a fashion-finding mission to discover how they do things in the land that brought us the Kaiser.

Now they’re bringing back the best of Berlin to Los Angeles at a pop-up shop at the flagship Revolve store at 8452 Melrose Avenue.

This one-day-only event takes place from 11am-8pm on Saturday, June 13 and features clothing from Lala Berlin, Penkov, Reality Studio and more.

And with the promised Pilsner, German chocolate cakes, weiners, and a 15% off discount, we suggest you Californians head out for some shopping and snacks.

In case you’re in Berlin tonight, and in case you’re curious about Iekeliene Stange’s photography-related pursuits, you’re in luck, because her first Polaroid-only exhibition, “I Like Ponies,” gets feted with an opening night party by projektGALERIE at 7pm local time.

Entrance is free (even for the party), and the pictures stay up through January 31st (more details here).

On a side note, projektGALERIE’s blog includes some interesting information: That Iekeliene is so serious about her work, she’s considering moving to Berlin full-time in order to concentrate on her art.

So does that mean less face time with the Dutch model for the fashion world? …

There’s an industry joke that it’s always Fashion Week somewhere, and last week was Berlin’s turn.

The German city known for its emerging art scene (and apparently its emerging cover of American Vogue starring Keira Knightley) played host to over 20 runways, including Anglomania by Vivienne Westwood, Boss by Hugo Boss, Joop, and Kai Kühne.

Some of the clothes looked amazing, but German press aren’t giving the same praise to the girls:

German newspapers are claiming the event ignored rules put in place by the country’s Health Minister, saying girls needed to be at least a size two, and over sixteen years old, to walk on runways. The Minister announced before the fashion shows that “[Germany] wants to take a stand against unhealthy body image.”

The situation is just a reminder that New York’s runways are about a month and a half away - and though we love models as much as any casting director, we hope none of them look sick, either.

This year, Hugo Boss and Vivienne Westwood presented their collections at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Berlin.

In January, Zac Posen will join them.

The 27-year old style star will bring his Spring ‘08 collection (which you already saw in New York) to Germany, just weeks before he presents his Fall ‘08 line in New York.

The trip might be exhausting, but it could also be a great investment:

In recent years, the Berlin art scene has exploded, bringing rock stars and fashion designers back into the city for vacations and collaborations, and paving the way for a new creative and retail community - sort of like London in the ’90s. If Zac lays down some Berlin roots now, he could attract a new group of acolytes that could help grow his brand abroad - not that Mr. Posen needs much help in the sales or PR department…

Zac is joined in Berlin by Wolfgang Joop, who is reprising his Spring ‘08 collection for the Berlin crowd - it was first shown in Paris last October.
