in the fields

Sun, 03 Jun 2012 17:59:02 +0200

Hi! This week the most awful thing happened to me. I didn’t have internet access at home for a couple of days!!! This had such a huge impact on my daily life. Terrible how we all are dependant on the world wide web! Luckily everything’s back to normal again so that I’m able to show you some pictures my sister snapped of me today. We went for a short walk (yes, me in high heels) just in time before it started pouring down. Now I’m back on my couch where I’m going to spent the rest of the day. Wishing you all a beautiful and relaxed Sunday evening!

wish list!

Dreaming of the perfect summer outfit! I found the most stunning maxi dress. It’s by Carven and it want it so badly. The maxi dress is also ideal for the upcoming wedding season and why not just wear flats? What about you? Show me your favorite outfit!

back to basics

I’m giving my nails a little break of all the pink/red/orange shades I normally use. Must say that I’m very satisfied with a more natural look right now (Chanel Island & Essie Ballet Slippers).

The winner of my sans-online giveaway is Sarah M. Congratulations!

Yeah, finally they are mine! Obsessed with my neon shoes from Zara. They were sold out for weeks and are available online now! Go and get yourself a pair!

kids only?

Hi! I’m utterly in love with baseball jackets at the moment. I bought this one here for my nephew at H&M kids yesterday. Now after trying it on I wanna keep it for myself. But as I’m a good aunt I’ll get my own one from our favorite Swedish retailer! So I have to consider H&M kids in future, too!

#1 As summer decided to make a break I was freezing yesterday. At least I was able to wear my new parka.

I think I’m going to cut my hair shorter. Need a change!

#2 I have been trying to reorganize my shoe closet this week. Still not finished but aren’t Lanvin’s shoe boxes too pretty to throw away?

#3 cute mint underwear found at COS

#4 little feature on ‘my daily style’

Let’s welcome the latest additions to my shoe closet! Believe me or not, but I didn’t own any black sandals before. That’s one reason I couldn’t resist buying these beauties!

What are you up to this weekend? I’m going to a flea market only for girls which sounds to be fun. Wish you a beautiful day!

THREE FLOOR // lookbook

Wed, 09 May 2012 00:14:54 +0200

I discovered THREE FLOOR a few months ago and fell in love with the label from the very first second. The collection is subtle and surprising but yet affordable. These are some of my favorites from the coming High Summer Collection which will be launched on May 12. I wish I could have them all! What about you?

it's time for new sandals

Sun, 06 May 2012 18:24:15 +0200

How was your weekend guys? I’m reorganizing my shoe closet and noticed that I just have one pair of flat sandals. I love my bimba & lola flats from last year but it’s also time for an alternative. You can see my favorites below. Which pair do you like the most?

Zara two-tone sandals/Zara snakeskin print shoes/orange Sandals by Acne

Marni sandals calfskin effect/black&white ones by See by Chloé/Proenza Schouler leather&canvas sandals

plans

Thu, 03 May 2012 10:58:00 +0200

I’ve made insane plans for May 2012! I wanted to work out daily. Naturally just a bit every day. Let me tell you how I already failed miserably on May 2nd.

Yesterday morning I prepared all my workout stuff incl. weights. Yesss, very motivated. But now they only seem like decoration to me. Scroll to see what went wrong…

…first I didn’t go home after work. I visited the usual suspects, Zara was one amongst them. There I fell in love with these printed pants. Gorgeous right?

After Zara I met up with a friend and had a 2nd (!!!) lunch. Not enough that I was not exercising, I enjoyed a giant chicken/bacon/egg sandwich. Ok, still I could have gone home to follow my initial plans. But…

…we went to a little event at the MAC counter where blue margaritas were offered. Shame on me! I really have to work on my motivation. What about you? Hope I’m not the only one out there.

camouflage

Sat, 28 Apr 2012 21:07:00 +0200

Summer has officially started today! That’s why I spent the whole day in the city hanging out with friends.

A while ago I posted this streetstyle look on my facebook page. Needless to mention that it’s shot by Tommy Ton!

Since then I have been looking for a camouflage parka and found one at Urban Outfitters. I just can’t wait to wear my new jacket (colors are acutally brighter than on this picture - blame Instagram) with cool heels, jeans and a t-shirt. I’m afraid I’ll get a chance to wear this outfit next week. It’s going to get colder again.

london diary

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:48:00 +0200

Virginia and I spent two lovely days in London last week. Though it was a very short trip we managed to do a lot. It was the first time we attended the movie premiere of “The Avengers” which was a very cool experience. You kind of feel a bit overwhelmed seeing all these stars on the red carpet so that we didn’t manage to take a lot of pictures (that aren’t blurry). But nevertheless our trip was awesome. The second day we went shopping (ok, mostly window shopping), had great pizza and much more. Thanks to Edelight for taking us to London!

We are already planning our next trip. Any suggestions?

But first of all some impressions!

P.S.: The winner of the Mirapodo giveaway is Milerama (via random.org). Please check your inbox. Thanks everyone for participating.

I don’t wanna sound like an old lady but doesn’t time fly way too fast? This week was packed with so many things that I would have needed quite a few hours more. Therefore I’m just relaxing today and showing you my favs of the week!

#1 New MAC lipstick (frost angel) and gloss (partial to pink) which are perfect for a subtle every day make-up.

#2 Using this Kurt Geiger pouch as a wallet. Love its mint green color.

#3 I’ve tried these amazing Givenchy sandals on in London!!! The block heel makes them very comfy. I guess I’ll have to wait for a very good sale.

#4 Check out this editorial for Marie Claire Spain. I love the model’s eyebrows. Beautiful!

packing my suitcase!

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 22:27:54 +0200

I always pack last minute! My friend Virginia and I are leaving for London tomorrow morning and I still have so much to prepare. As you know from my previous post we’re going to attend a movie premiere. With the help of my gorgeous friends I managed to put together an outfit for the event. But of course I have to pack some casual and comfortable things as well! Do you like my choices?

smart casual in London

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 22:17:00 +0200

I have some great news to share with you! I’m flying to London on Thursday to attend the movie premiere of “The Avengers”. I’m gonna see the cast of the movie such as Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr. LIVE on the red carpet!!!!!!!

There are no words to describe my excitement!!!! (I know I’m using way to many exclamation marks!)

What the hell am I going to wear? It’s so hard. I feel I have nothing adequate in my closet. The official dress code is “smart casual” which made me calm down a little bit. But it’s still quite difficult. What do you think of a cool jumpsuit with sexy high heels and the right accesories? I will also get my hair and make-up done.

I’m thankful for your advice!

best buy

Mon, 16 Apr 2012 15:53:55 +0200

I guess I’m known as the girl with the vest by now. Since I bought this Zara piece I haven’t really taken it off anymore. But who can blame me? It goes with EVERYTHING. Love it with my floral pants! Do you agree with me?

London calling?

Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:47:41 +0200

We are so used to bad and rainy weather these days that I wouldn’t mind going to London at all. I discovered an amazing giveaway on Edelight where you can win a short trip to UK’s capital city with also attending a movie premiere. How great would that be? My umbrella is ready to take off to London and so am I.

You will see my whole outfit tomorrow. Stay tuned!

good day

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 23:10:35 +0200

Hiiii, though it’s Friday the 13th it didn’t bring me any bad luck at all! Actually it was a great day with inspiring talks with a very inspiring friend! But I don’t wanna philosophize about life so here’s what I wore at the office today! :-)

Enjoy your weekend!
