Ready for some more dancefloor aerobics? Okay, so then get your legs stretched, here are our recommendations for the weekend:

On Friday thou shall go to the lovely people from De:Bug magazine celebrating at Picknick with a live set by Nerk and Dirk Leyers and DJs MIA and many more. Or if you dare to bear you can go visit the Pet Shop Bears at the Cuntine (Berghain Kantine) who have Erobique as their special guest star for the night. But you might wanna check if you are male and have enough chest hair for that one, though.

On Saturday you can join the fun crowd at the Yum Yum Party at Scala, or swing your hips to housy funky electronic tunes by Mara Trax, Alexkid and Matt Sims at Crush. And if you feel like putting on a hat again, then you should dress up Twenties style and head over to another Boheme Sauvage night at Oxymoron. Flyers after the jumpsicle.

Bohemian Times

 

Boheme Sauvage - Wintergarte Variete

Last Saturday we found ourselves at the Boheme Sauvage party at the Wintergarten Varieté. It was another magical night in the spirit of the Golden Twenties. The Shellack was spinning, the sugar was flaming and the fringes were flying. And as I watched the crowd dancing and the fancy couples waltzing over the stage in perfection I asked myself how much more glamorous the nights must have been back in the days compared to our modern-day understanding of a party. More impressions after the jump.

A Secret Fashion Picnic

Picknick

A picnic in a beautiful park always has something very mundane. You feel a little like in the old days where you drove to the country-side in a coach and sat on a white or red-checked picnic blanket. There were times when the team of iheartberlin was more inclined to those kind of amusements. Apparently these times will return, thanks to Lands’ End Canvas, who has invited us to a mysterious picnic in the park where we get the chance to change some of our old garments with the new Canvas collection. For that they have already sent us the most important accessory: a picnic basket. Because they have also thought of our readers, you get the chance to win a second picnic basket including two invitations to the Canvas Picnic. How to win this nice present you can read after the jump.

La Fête Fatale

Millicent Binks

Yes, right, ladies and gentlemen, this weekend is starting off way earlier! To have a nice and easy start I recommend the promising premiere of Fête Fatale presented by the Secret Seduction Society. It’s supposed to be a clash of beauty and bizarre – the first regular burlesque party in town.

The Fête fatale is the little whimsical sister of Bohème Sauvage, a Twenties Party which is one of my favorites in this beloved city. So with this big mama in the background I am convinced you cannot go wrong at all. More after the jump.
