Fashion does not always make sense. And it doesn’t have to. Lately I have developed a love for mini bags – totally impractical because you can hardly fit your phone and lipstick, let alone your wallet, notebook or (as I like to do with my usual bags) supermarket shopping in them. But, look at them, aren’t … Read More
Focus on: Sophie by Sophie (and a discount for you!)
I am a big fan of Scandinavian jewellery design because of its simple, graphic shapes, which are time- and ageless and, if you ask me, make very good everyday pieces. One of my favourite jewellery brands from Sweden is Sophie by Sophie. I wear their classic knot cuff (which you can see here) almost every day … Read More
My favourite things in August
Time flies. It’s the end of August already and I am asking myself were summer has gone … Is this what happens when you have too much work and too little time to take a break – or were there really so few summer days this year? I am still hoping I will somehow manage to … Read More
Cool heritage
I have always loved plaid, double-breasted wool blazers – classically cut, based on men’s tailoring. They have a touch of heritage but nonetheless they are timeless pieces that can look so cool with leather trousers or skinny jeans. In the past seasons Stella McCartney and Saint Laurent made the perfect, yet sadly not quite affordable versions. … Read More
What I’d like to wear now
My favourite things in July (including two recipes)

I did not even manage to publish this post in the month of July – it comes one day too late. I hope you’ll forgive me. 😉 So before I … Read More
Blue Sunday
Hello again! I’m back after some offline days. I spent the weekend at my parents’ place and in the countryside to recharge my batteries. Sadly, the weather was too bad on Saturday (rainy and stormy) to put my initial plans – lounging around in the garden, reading under the apple tree and drinking iced coffee … Read More
Summer wedding – what I wore
I was invited to the most idyllic and lovely summer wedding in Bavaria last weekend. The party lasted for almost three days and the bridal couple and their families were the best hosts. It was surprisingly hot in southern Germany (I guess you feel the closeness to Italy there) and with temperatures in the upper 30°C … Read More
Fashion and Food in Berlin
I was in Berlin for Fashion Week last week (you can see some snapshots from fashion shows and my stay on my Instagram account). Here is what I wore on Thursday (due to many appointments in different parts of Berlin I went for sneakers during the day and only changed into high heels at night): silk … Read More
My SALE picks
Now that summer is finally here, I feel like I have nothing to wear once the temperature rises above 30 degrees. It’s a phenomenom I encounter whenever the weather makes it impossible for me to wear my usual “uniform”. So I did have a look at the sale after all (and placed an order for … Read More
