- Liked a few pieces from the Spring/Summer 2012 lookbook of the German label Strenesse Blue. I’m especially in love with the blue suit!

- Yesterday I recognized that I’ve N-E-V-E-R worn these Zara sandals. But I still remember how much I wanted them. Such a shame!

- Lots of tangerine on my nails/lips these days (though the lipstick doesn’t look very tangerine here)

- My sisters and I used to go running a lot last year. The past few months we blamed the early darkness for not “moving” anymore. Now we put an end to this excuse with ultra cool headlamps.

- The hunt for the PERFECT parka has finally come to an end. Thanks to my birthday, a gorgeous sale and Yves Salomon!

wishful thinking!

Wouldn’t mind to call these pieces my own:

- Outfit from the new H&M summer 2012 lookbook though I’m fully aware of that it looks way better on Frida Gustavsson than on me. But I can live with that!

- It’s already 2012 and I still don’t own any studded flats? This needs to be changed soon!!! Love these here from Loeffler Randall.

- Oh and how pretty is this JACLYN MAYER bracelet by the way?

- New YSL lip gloss. They come in amazing colors!

- Topshop cross body bag with neon details

My friend Virginia is travelling around the world right now. I thought it would be great to share some of her amazing pictures with you. She’s my Indiana Jones! Enjoy!

Hi, this is Virginia. I’m doing the work behind this blog with Dani.

Actually I never wanted to appear on the blog but Dani asked me to write a
post about my journey and so here I am sharing some impressions with you! :)
Since July I’m travelling through South America. My journey started in Córdoba, Argentina where I stayed 4 months long to study.
Right now I’m in Brazil on the beautiful island “ilha Grande” and hence “fresh” off the Bolivian jungle. I’m going to spend two more weeks in Brazil and will catch my
flight back home from Rio de Janeiro.
I visited many places, met a lot of great people and saw how wonderful and outstanding nature can be.

Next stop: The Beach. Have a lovely Sunday everyone, what are you up to around the world? Still snow and cold where you are? Sending you my warmest thoughts from the beach today, “marinated” in the beautiful flavor of caipirinhas of course.

ARGENTINA

CHILE

PERU

Finally arrived to Machu Picchu after 4 days hiking in the rain!

Isnt it cute? Its a babylama!!!

Had a strong feeling to hug a random family on Christmas…

BOLIVIA

After this you dont need discovery channel anymore: saw how the babylama was born and how it tried to walk after 2 minutes!

How do you recognize a tourist in Bolivia? The sweater! Here in the salt flat of Uyuni.

Riding the death road

Getting killed by the mosquitos in the jungle of the amazonas

Looking for Anacondas

Crocodile dundee

BRAZIL (or: Caipirinha-wonderland)

Where I am now: on our terrace on the beautiful island Ihla Grande…

I have to share these two great books with you which I just got last week!

100 Unforgettable Dresses is a beautiful gallery filled with pictures of memorable red carpet moments, looks from runways, movies and much more. I’ve already browsed through this book many many times. It kind of makes my heart beat.

Hal Vaughan’s book “Sleeping with the enemy” about Coco Chanel is not about style or design at all! It’s about the icon’s activities during World War II. I wanted to read it since it has been published - also because of its good reviews. Has anyone of you already read it?
