Last weekend I spent two and a half days in Copenhagen with my family. The plan was to stroll around the city, admire Danish design, eat pastries, drink coffee and generally have a hygellig time. We took the train from Hamburg and were greeted with a very rainy, windy Copenhagen (which made walking around not very … Read More
California dreaming
Last weekend I went to Berlin with my boyfriend to sit in the sun, meet old friends, have dinner at Katz Orange (one of my favourite restaurants in Berlin) and a hipster breakfast at Distrikt coffee on Sunday, and simply to roam around a bit. The cherry on top: It was actually warm enough to … Read More
Want to bamboo with me?
Maybe I’m feeling the feminine me at the moment – currently I’d love to wear flare jeans, deep-V silk tops, patent Mary-Jane pumps, delicate diamond hoop earrings and oval, old-Hollywood sunglasses. Silk top by Réalisation Vintage Gucci Bamboo bag (e.g. here) Re/Done cropped flare jeans Otiumberg diamond hoops (I’d love to wear one in my helix) … Read More
Grey February
It’s freezing cold but I am tired of hiding in masses of winter coats, scarves and oversized knitwear. So lately I have taken to just layering T-Shirts, jackets, blazers and thinner coats. Okay, I still added a knitted beanie and scarf to this look before actually heading out – but it still makes me feel … Read More
501 Skinny
Haha, here’s that look in real life (lacking dream bag and shoes, sadly). As you know, I have a soft spot for the perfect pair of blue jeans – so, a big thank you, Levi’s, for finally making a skinny version of the iconic 501. It was about time you listened to all those girls … Read More
What I’d like to wear now
I know, I’m repeating myself but I’d still like to wear the perfect faded, light blue, vintage-style pair of jeans. This month, I’d add patent boots, layers of sweaters and the new star of bags, aka YSL’s new version of the Sac de jour – a little softer, a little younger, a little more je … Read More
Favourite things in January
I’m back with another list of things that are currently making my days a little more joyful, relaxing or entertaining – and that’s certainly necessary in January, this month that always seems a bit grey after the sparkling holiday season. 1. NORTHSTAR NECKLACE I never go without jewellery (aka layers of necklaces, bracelets, rings and … Read More
Christmas dinner
Only one more week till Christmas. I’ll be heading off into my holiday break soon, but before I do, I have to enjoy all Christmassy things in the city once again: Christmas markets, Christmas windows, Christmas ballet (I can’t wait!) and fancy Christmas dinners. Apropos dinners: Here’s what I’m wearing tonight: Turtleneck by Uniqlo (similar here) … Read More
2 ideas for New Year’s looks
I always get very excited about holiday dressing – after all, when, if not now, are you going to dress up like you mean it? I’m talking sequins, sparkle, stones, patent and satin. Since I usually live in jeans, shirts and boots, every year as the holidays approach, I find that I don’t have enough “evening … Read More
December walk
I certainly wouldn’t call myself a sneakers girl (my ever-growing collection of (mostly western style) ankle boots speaks for itself), but there are some sneakers that I actually feel like myself in: my old Converse, for instance, a relict from my teenage years that I still love and wear a lot, as well as my canvas Superga that I … Read More
