Weekend Read


I don´t know what about you but I´m not totally arrived yet in 2016. 
Normally I don´t have these difficulties with starting a new year but this time it was quite sentimental and thoughful. 
I hope to get back my energy soon. Luckily, I had two full days off, which I have well spend booking 
my summer holidays, watching some episodes of my favourite series and reading the latest issue of Porter Magazine. 
Now I´m a bit in a blues that this enjoyable weekend is already over.
Anyway, this article about Emma Watson published in Porter Magazine I do not want to keep back.
She has become such a strong and inspiring woman and her commitment made me feel much more motivated.

New in


Hello again! It´s been a while but let´s go on with one of my favourite things to do. 
Showing you my latest sale bargains and some new beauty bits and bobs. 
You know how much I love my Isabel Marant Étoile Patsha Boots in brown. 
As I mentioned in my Black Boots Selection post, I was thinking about getting the black ones as well and 
as you can see I did it. I may not have bought them if they weren´t on sale but it must be a sign
 that there was only one black pair left in my size on sale. I don´t feel guilty because I love these shoes
 so much in both colours and I hope I can wear them for a long long time. 
I feel more guilty about my two new sweaters because I know, that I already own a lot of lovely knitwear pieces. 
But every winter again I feel like I need more of them if I want to survive the coldness outside. 
In my defence I have to say that I neither have a blue sweater nor a black and white salt and pepper
 sweater and I now feel like being well equipped even I already keep an eye on two other non sale models. 
Beauty-wise I finally can tell the Laura Mercier Tinted Mousturizer my own, which was on my wishlist
 for such a long time. Along with that I bought another Diptyque Room Fragrance with a heavenly floral scent, 
which I´m going to use to feel a little more spring-like even if it´s freezing outside.
 Last but not least I got myself a new red lipstick. I´m so in love with this deep berry but still red colour, 
I wore every since almost every day during Christmas time. The perfect colour to go with my dark blue sweater. 
I´m not a hundred percent satisfied with the durability of this lipstick but anyways I love the finish of it.
Did you got anything from the sale or do you remain strong yet?

Home Inspiration

The start into a new year is the perfect chance to approach new challenges or 
to bring old projects to an end. For me the first (fun) project of the year will be to complete my corridor 
by adding some nice little details. These wooden dots by Muuto are the perfect little accessory
 for my rather narrow corridor and also super practical as you can put stuff like bags, scarves, hats or jackets on them.
The dots were on my mind for quite some time and I´ve just found an amazing offer, which I could not longer resist. 
Well, the first step is done and I´m already looking forward to check off this first project from my 2016 to do list.
What are your projects for this year?

Sale Wishlist


Sale is going on right now and of course I had a little look around and 
put quite a selection of sale pieces straight on my wishlist. I´m so excited 
when it comes to sale season and I love a good bargain. Who doesn´t?
My favourite websites to shop high end clothing on sale are farfetch.com, matchesfashion.com, 
luisaviaroma.com, mytheresa.com and net-a-porter.com, which you all might already know. 
But you can make even better sale finds offline. From experience I know that tiny private boutiques 
often offer the best selection of sale pieces. So if you may have not to work yet and 
you are up to a bit of treasure hunting, the time is right. 
But be careful, there are a lot of great deals out there at the moment.
