  • Pink, Blush & Pudre

    “Dear Siberian weather, we get it – you are cool (literally). Now please move on to someplace else and make way for Spring!” With -10°C or more (less?!) on the thermometer every week, it is starting to become a bit difficult to dress the part. I feel like no matter what I wear, it is…

  • chopped: new hair

    I have always considered myself a long-hair-type. Not only do I have really thick hair that needs a bit of length to be weighed down, but I also find my face rather “round” (personal perception, I know…) and figured a bit of length would help. Then, a few months ago, my best friend decided to…

  • La Toilette

    I love all things interior. If I could, I would make it a hobby to re-decorate our apartment bi-annually. Unfortunately, that is not happening. Mostly because Mike would probably kill me, as would my bank account. While I would love to provide you with new interior updates on a more regular basis, the problem is…

  • Turning 29

    Yesterday I turned 29. Old? Not sure! Happy? Definitely! To celebrate my birthday this year, Mike and I decided to hop on a plane and spend 3 days in Istanbul. Our last visit 4 years ago for Easter and we absolutely loved the crazy busy city, which is why we decided to come back for…

  • leo lover

    I don’t know what it is about the leo pattern, but I have always found myself drawn to it. Some of the leo experiments in the past may not have gone as planned (at least looking back on it now), but my most recent addition to the leopard-print collection is definitely a keeper. Not only…

  • V for Valentine

    I love Valentine’s Day. Not because everything turns pink and the flower stores make more money than on any other day the rest of the year, but because it is the day before my birthday. I have always found it incredibly convenient to have my birthday on the day after Valentine’s Day for multiple reasons….

  • A rendezvous with Beethoven

    Vienna is home to more than 400 balls every year and nowhere else in the world, are balls as romantically formal and traditional as in Vienna – with good reason. Dating back to the 15th century, the Viennese balls have always been a grand affair – peaking to the heights of social gatherings with the…

  • the forgotten

    It rarely happens to me, but sometimes I shoot an outfit and totally forget to share it with you. As you can easily tell from my hair color (3 weeks ago, when balayage was a thing) today’s look is one from the category of “the forgotten”. Since a camel coat and shades of gray can…
