Off to New York

July 19, 2013

unbenannt (2 von 4).jpg unbenannt (3 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 4).jpg unbenannt (4 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 1).jpg

What I wore: Iris&Ink Shorts, H&M Blouse, Zara Blazer, Asos Heels, Miu Miu Bag, (similar SDJ H, FF)

Rebecca Minkoff Bracelet, Topshop Rings, Essie Status Symbol 


Actually I am already in New York, but I totally forgot to publish the draft for this post in the morning. I don't know how often I will be able to update the blog while I am in the US, so for more frequent updates follow my Instagram here

I love those shorts, another great purchase I made this season. I am trying to incorporate more and more things into my wardrobe that are wearable and I can at least think of five different ways to combine it with something already in my closet. I am working towards a more edited wardrobe, because I can't stand it to look at a full closet each morning and still having nothing to wear. What are your tricks to avoid buyer's remorse?

Casual Chambray

July 13, 2013

unbenannt (4 von 5).jpg unbenannt (3 von 5).jpg unbenannt (5 von 5).jpg unbenannt (2 von 5).jpg

What I wore: Zara Skort, Topshop Denim Shirt, Isabel Marant Sandals, Alexander Wang Bag, Margiela Rings, Alexander McQueen Bracelet, Ray-Ban Sunglasses, Gorjana Necklace, joseph, BF , mrp, sb

 A casual look from a few days ago. When the weather is this hot, I really go for comfort over dressing up. This Zara skort has proven to be one of the best purchases I've made this season. It is so versatile and comfortable, I just love pairing it with different things from my closet.
 On another note, in less than a week I will start my American Roadtrip and I couldn't be more excited. Two friends and I will tour the country for a month, visiting different cities like Chicago or Miami. My first stop will be New York, I've only been once and am so excited to go back and explore the city a little more. I would really appreciate it, if you would give me a few tips on what places to check out! Have a lovely weekend:) d

Flower Girl

July 2, 2013

unbenannt (2 von 4).jpg unbenannt (3 von 4).jpg unbenannt (4 von 4).jpg unbenannt (1 von 4).jpg

What I wore: Zara Dress, Denim Jacket and Sandals (all on sale now!), Asos Flower Garland, Miu Miu Bag, Margiela Rings, 

It's been some time that I wore a whole Zara look, I am always trying to steer clear of dressing head to toe in one label, but I picked up the dress and jacket in the sale and they just work so well together. I added some gold sandals and gold jewelry, a few dainty necklaces and rings, to make the outfit a little more put together, but still keep a kind of bohemian feel with the flower crown.
I wore this outfit to a friend's garden party. He throws one every year after the exams and it is always so much fun. I also think that with a few small changes (red lipstick or maybe some red sandals) this would be a great outfit for the 4th of July.
Do you have a go-to look for a garden party or barbecue? Do you Americans already have your outfits for celebrating the 4th figured out?

unbenannt (2 von 5).jpg unbenannt (4 von 5).jpg unbenannt (1 von 5).jpg unbenannt (3 von 5).jpg unbenannt (5 von 5).jpg

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Topshop T-Shirt, Bespoke Blazer (similar here), Isabel Marant Sandals (brown version here), 
Miu Miu Bag, YSL and Margiela Rings (cheaper version here), Kenneth Jay Lane Bracelet, Karen Walker Sunglasses

I actually wanted to post this look yesterday, but I got my hands on the new Dan Brown novel and spend all day reading. 
I just love it when you can dive into a book and the everything else is secondary. I especially enjoy Dan Brown's books, 
because I study Art History and know most of the paintings, buildings, etc he writes about.

Now on to the outfit. My dad had this blazer made for me when he was abroad and at first I was a little hesitant about 
the bright red, but now I love it. Paired with an all white ensemble it looks fresh and lends a great pop of color to an otherwise monochrome look.

White Crop

June 10, 2013

unbenannt (3 von 5).jpg unbenannt (2 von 5).jpg unbenannt (4 von 5).jpg unbenannt (5 von 5).jpg

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Zara Crop Top (recent) and Blazer, Asos Heels (similar), Samudra Pouch, CC Skye Bracelet, American Eagle Necklace, Ray Ban Sunglasses

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend! :)
I sure did, because  for the first time in weeks I didn't have to study. Friday night I watched a soccer game with my boyfriend and his friends and we had some drinks at his place. Saturday the two of us made homemade burgers, we even made the buns ourselves, ate nearly all of them and just relaxed.  
On Sunday I went to brunch with my dad to celebrate Father's day and in the evening had dinner with both my parents. Since I moved out, I am much happier to see them and when we go out for dinner time just flies by.

Now on to the outfit: I know you are going to be tired of seeing this skirt again, but I just love it so much and there are endless possibilities to style it, so bear with me please. I paired it with this amazing crop top from Zara and my Samudra pouch, which gives me a bad case of wanderlust.

Polka Dot Denim

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Asos Shirt (similar) , Zara Boots, Miu Miu Bag (or here), Ray Ban Sunglasses, Saint Laurent and Topshop Rings, Bcbg and Marc by Marc Bracelets

Finally I am able to upload, yesterday was such a busy day! 
I had an exam in the morning, classes afterwards and then I decided to get some frames for pictures I got three years ago. 
Getting two frames turned into an afternoon of shopping for my apartment, all while carrying two huge frames in the rain. I felt a little like Anne Hathaway in The Devil wears Prada where she has to carry those boogie boards and hits everybody. 
But I managed to get some furniture for my balcony, as it is really tiny, it was so hard to find something that would fit. 
Hope you had a productive Monday as well!

Denim

May 28, 2013

unbenannt (3 von 3).jpg unbenannt (2 von 3).jpg

What I wore: Topshop Jeans and Denim Shirt, Mango Heels, Marc by Marc Jacobs Bag, American Eagle Necklace, Nasty Gal and CC Skye Bracelets

Last weekend I wore the Canadian Tuxedo. I stumbled across this nickname for denim-on-denim outfits on some blogs now and just love it. I combined mine with one of my oldest bags and big shades to cover up the night before. 
On another note, I love nothing more than small cross-body bags, but I seldom have the chance to wear them, since in my everyday life I need more of an Olsen-sized bag. 
But I always wear them after my exams, since I can't be bothered anymore with huge bags filled with books, so they have a special place in my heart, since they are the sign that exams are over.

What I wore: Zara Skort, Topshop Sweater and Necklace, Asos Heels and Rings, Louis Vuitton Bag, Karen Walker Sunglasses

I love these days in spring, when you can smell the flowers blooming and the nights are getting warmer. I really enjoy mixing pieces from different seasons during this time of the year, like this look: the shorts are already a summer piece, but to keep warm when the weather changes, I threw on this chunky knit. 

I always go through phases with my style, like the whole black and white thing a few weeks ago and now all white, or white with neutral colors seems to be my go-to choice. I just love the freshness and purity of white, don't you?

Another take on the white trend. I used to wear all-white outfits before this trend emerged, but for some reason I didn't think further than white jeans with a white blouse. Therefore it is very interesting to me, with how many white outfits I can come up with.. I will keep you posted;) 

PS: don't forget to check out my look on Grazia.it here!

What I wore: River Island Skirt, Topshop Blouse, Zara Heels, Reed Krakoff Bag, Asos Necklace, Yves Saint Laurent Ring, Low Luv by Erin Wasson, Marc by Marc, and Gorjana Bracelet
