Several months ago I was approached by RUE magazine to spend the day with them shopping in a city of my choice in Germany. I thought to bring them to Hannover or nearby Hamburg or Berlin but since I was under deadline with my book, I sadly had to decline their lovely offer. Then I thought to refer them to Steffi from OhhhMhhh, a Hamburg-based blogger. I knew that Steffi was the lady for the job with her magazine experience.

This post is a bit belated as her style guide to Hamburg appeared in the last issue, number 12, but I still have to highlight it because she did a bang up job and well, Steffi is a good friend and I love to shine the light on her whenever possible because she is a tremendously supportive friend and all around total "it" girl - she rocks.

This Friday and Saturday I'll be hanging out in Hamburg for a few days, I have a business meeting and I'll be seeing my good Danish friend Charlotte and also Steffi, so I'm looking forward to being there and putting Steffi's guide in RUE magazine to good use.

If you're ever in Hamburg, definitely don't miss this article which appears in issue 12 on pages 40-46. Lovely work, Frau Luxat!
