I would really like to have a new fragrance for this summer (which, I trust, will come back soon. It cannot be cold and rainy for the rest of the summer months). The problem: I cannot decide. Here are four fragrances that I fell in love with the minute I tried them: 1. “Fleur d’oranger … Read More
My favourite things in May
I am sorry there is so little going on here at the moment. I promise this will change very soon (the blog’s relaunch is finally about to happen – stay tuned!). You might think that starting a freelancer career will give you enough time for blogging, but since I do not work as a fulltime-blogger … Read More
My favourite things in April
I would like to introduce a new category to Rosy Cheeks. Since I always come across so many things that make me happy – when travelling, through my work, when I browse the internet, … – I thought I should’t just post them on Instagram or Pinterest but give them their own little section on … Read More

You know what I love? Fantasy wishlists. This year, I’ll try to save up (again) for the bag of my dreams – Louis Vuitton’s “Sofia Coppola” bag in cobalt blue –, but I also wouldn’t mind the following: a loose-fitting pair of jeans (since I’m only wearing skinny jeans this would be something entirely new in … Read More
For the twill of it
The world of diptyque
Maybe you can tell from my Instagrams that I’m a fan of the diptyque scented candles (but who isn’t? They’re so chic!), yet I only recently tried the diptyque perfumes and body care. There are three fragrances that I particularly like: “Philosykos”, “Ofrésia” and l’Ombre dans l’Eau. Sooo nice! Especially the first two. You have to go and … Read More
