I’ve been living in my current apartment for two years and only now do I feel happy with the lamps. I think it takes some time to find nice lamps that add something to your apartment apart from light (the obvious) – especially if you’re not able to pay enormous sums. From my experience and numerous trips … Read More
Wishlist for spring
I’m pretty happy with my stack of favourite pieces and reliable basics in my wardrobe at the moment. And I’m not planning to dare any fashion experiments within the next weeks – all I’m looking forward to are light silk blouses, canvas sneakers and cropped jeans. If I could choose, I’d like to wear Acne … Read More
One day in Porto
With femtastics I was invited to Portugal last week. I got to visit Porto during one very warm and sunny afternoon and drove around the Douro valley, one of portugal’s prettiest wine-growing-districts (this is where port wine is from, originally). It was my first time in Portugal so I did my best to soak up … Read More
Cropped
Seems like currently my wardrobe is all about special boots and new shapes of denim. After last week’s post about my new favourite Levi’s and silver boots, here are two other pieces that are on high rotation at the moment: cropped flare jeans and bordeaux python boots. I actually like the cropped flare cut a … Read More
Silver boots and blue jeans, Baby
Nothing makes dressing fun again like a new pair of boots – especially when they’re shiny and silver. I love the 70s disco feel about these, evoked by the block heel and square shape. #Topshopstrikesagain. Every time I look at my feet when I’m wearing them, they make me happy. Last night I wore them with my faux-fur … Read More
My favourite things in February
Following up my travel moodboard my favourite things in February are almost all about (mentally) escaping the cold and wet weather. I’ve been inevitably drawn to everything that reminds me of sunnier and warmer climes and I couldn’t help but stock up on new pieces for my holiday wardrobe. NEW TRAVEL FRIENDS Alright, I’m all set for the … Read More
Boots boots boots
I’m a boots girl. Of course, sometimes I like to wear pumps, brogues, loafers, ballet flats or sneakers (the latter usually when I work out). But I feel most like myself, most confident and comfortable when I’m wearing boots – western, chelsea or combat. I think all it takes is one look at my shoe shelf … Read More
Interior wishlist
I can’t wait to spring-clean my home: install new lamps, change the rugs (I’m still hunting for the perfect Beni Ouarain rug), finally find a new dining table, get the balcony spring-ready, clean out my wardrobe and the shelves, improve my shoe shelf, maybe even paint the hallway in a different colour? … Here are some things … Read More
Healthy snacks
Here’s a confession: I am a snack addict. I get hungry every three to four hours – and if I don’t eat anything, after four hours I will get moody, and after five hours without food at the latest, I will turn into a terrible, very grumpy person. And no matter what I’ve had for lunch, I … Read More
My favourite things in January
I must admit that fashion-wise January really isn’t the most exciting month. The new season seems so close but hasn’t arrived in stores yet, the old season seems old – and anyway it’s best to just dress for the weather, meaning for snow, ice and cold wind. I think it’s for these reasons that I’m … Read More
