And the Kitchen!

Here is a quick view on my kitchen. At the moment I prefer light colours for a kind of fiftiès feeling.

Cosy Christmas Eve Outfit

Every year again on Christmas Eve my whole family meets and eats lot`s of food and I mean really a lot of. So, for this day I need a cosy outfit where I can hide my belly and which doesn`t bother me. Stretch skinnies are always a good option which work nice together with a chunky wool sweater decorated with gemstones. Here comes my cosy Christmas Eve outfit for this year.

Christmas Decoration - Inspiration

Today some decoration for christmas, the reindeer must be handbuild by yourself. So, it`s also a nice way to train your manual work skills.

New In

This is what I bought, borrowed and won this week. Yap, indeed I won something, thank you mirapodo for my new iPod shuffle in pink. Last time I won something was in primary school, a walkman... no more words. The bag is on loan from my mum, because I can`t find a new black one in the right size.
Really a nice idea is the Essie nailpolish collection. As you might have noticed, I´m a little bit addiccted to new nailpolish, especially Essie and Chanel ones. But I usually don`t use a colour very often, so when I discovered the little versions of the Essie winter collection, it felt like a stroke of luck for me. The Nikes will hopefully keep my feet warm through winter. And finally the sweater is a very practical buy, you don`t need a necklace when you wear it.

Almost Black in Black

Today I`m wearing an outfit in black and grey shades with my new classic Converse Chucks. There was a kind of Spring feeling this day, the temperature was about ten degrees Celsius and sun was shining a little bit. So, I took the opportunity to wear these non weatherproof shoes, maybe for the last time this year.

The Living Room

Today I like to show you some impressions from our living room. More will follow later, because the light was very bad in the last days (almost none).

Christmas Sweets

It´s that time of the year when you better don`t step on your scale. Sweets and biscuits everywhere your eyes reach to. On sunday our local street christmas market took place and of course we had to buy some of the yummies there.

cookie monster muffins (looking a bit irritated, maybe they know what`s happening next)

Camouflage and Royal Blue

Finally here is the promised outfit post about my "matchy-matchy" outfit. The trousers look a bit military on the pictures, but they are more tie-dyed than camouflage patterned. And I really felt in love with the nailpolish I`m wearing, it`s colourful, but not too much, a perfect blue shade.

Into the Snow

At the weekend the first snow of the year felt down and we played with Emma outside who was really enjoying her first snow ever. Unfortunately we forget to take the camera with us. So, here is just a picture of  Emma on our balcony.

First Christmas Biscuits

Yummy, these are my first Christmas biscuits this year baked by my mom-in-law. They are as delicious as they look like and I`ve eaten almost every of them in two days. At the weekend I`m going to try myself as a christmas baker, maybe I`ll show the results. Until then I have to eat the rest of these goodies.

Perfect Match?

I found the perfect matching outfit in green shades, but sadly I have to return it. The angora cardigan is too scratchy (even with a long sleeve under it) and the jeans don`t fit like I `ve imagined them to do. But anyway I had to show it to you and as a reminder to me: Try the things on, before you buy them!

New Knits

As promised, now a post about a colour which is not pink. I show you my buys from last saturday and because of the cold weather it was time for some new knits in my wardrobe. At random I bought all of them in black (maybe a not so secret hint to me and my currently pink obsession).

Mini Me

And now I show you Emma`s new coat. The colours are similar to mine, so we can walk along in a perfect partner look. ( I know, I know I`m exaggerating a little bit )

Overdo the Pink Thing

OK, I swear, this is gonna be the last pink post for some time, but I had to show you my new coat and it works so nice with pink accessories.
