- currently craving, wishlist material & my finds -
Life is short
Buy the shoes, drink the wine and order the dessert.
After an unexpectedly warm December, I literally forgot what Winter can be like. Temperatures below zero - what's that? Well, today was a pretty good reminder. With -2°C plus windchill is freezing, trust me! In other words: I need to dress warmer.
It was always my intention to take a few days off around Christmas. I purposely turned the ringer on my phone to silent and had planned to leave my laptop shut for a while.
If you're not quite as ready to go, then I have some last-minute gift ideas under 30 € for you today. Showing someone your appreciation with a gift for the holidays doesn't always have to mean spending tons of money. Smaller, personal gifts are just as amazing, if you ask me!
If your friends (or you) are anything like me, traveling is the biggest luxury. There is something so magical about exploring new destinations, chasing the sun and warmth during Winter, tasting foreign cuisines or learning about different cultures. Of course, traveling in style makes it even more fun, which is why I have picked out a few must-haves for everyone that loves to travel...
For the next 3 Sundays, I want to exchange my usual cravings (meaning: things I want) for gift guides (meaning: things I want to give). As much as I love receiving presents, I am also a big sucker for giving. It is so much fun trying to find the perfect gift and seeing the other person's appreciation and smile when you absolutely nailed it. Of course that doesn't always happen, but to up your chances a bit, I have created 3 different themes for the 3 gift guides with plenty of ideas.
Good morning and welcome to Black Friday! The one day of the year that we are officially allowed to go nuts in terms of shopping - because if you think about it, we're actually saving money with all the amazing Black Friday sales and discounts going on. To make things a bit easier, I've round up the best Black Friday sales + coupon codes for you guys, as well as my personal wishlist from each store. Ready, set, shooooop ...
While I am trying my best to adjust my wardrobe to the outdoor setting, I does take some getting used to all the layers and not leaving home without a scarf and gloves again. That's why I did the work for you, and put together my essentials for Winter today. Aka "my tipps to keep warm" ...
Come Winter, I feel like I am living a déjà vu year after year. It gets cold outside and I am left with a closet full of espadrilles and sneakers, but nothing warm to wear. This week, I am definitely craving a pair of great winter boots, meaning: if you have any recommendations or thoughts on my selection, please let me know! "Help, I need somebody - help, not just anybody ..." ♫
Today, at brunch, Mike looked at me and said “Isn’t crazy how November will be over in 2 weeks? The year will be gone before we know it”.
You know those things that nobody actually needs, but everyone wants? The little things that add a special touch to your outfit - or in today's case, your apartment! Interior design and decor definitely fall into that category for me and make me happy. I love fresh flowers on the dining table, scented candles spread out around the living room (I know, basic bi**h alert) and framed prints placed on the stairs next to stacks of magazines. I feel that creating a home you love, no matter how small or big, ...
Things I am great at? Well, aside from cooking pasta bolognese (recipe coming up tomorrow) or watching 10 episodes of Modern Family in one go, I am also great at thinking too long before making a purchase.
When it comes to Winter, I like to go with the motto of “oh my gaaawd, it’s so fluffy – I’m gonna die!”.
There is always a certain magic that comes with a city located by a large body of water.
After a week spent in beautiful Tulum, we decided to head further inland for an additional two days in Mexico.
Visiting a newly opened hotel always has pros and contras. A few advantages and a whole bunch of possible risks.
If you have ever found yourself researching hotels for New York City, chances are pretty high that you have come across, or heard of The Standard High Line Hotel.
As much as I love the excitement of exploring and getting to know a new city, there is something extra special about returning to a place.
