BLEU ET ORANGE

Hey Lovers,

Since the weather is so bad all the time and I would love to stay inside all day long I had the idea to shoot inside. Well normally I don't like it that much but I have to honour to live in a absolutely gorgeous flat and so it isn't that bad at all.

Well I wanted to wear something summery although it was raining outside and I created this look.

The look is clean and chic and I really love the casual but though chic feel of it.

Lately I have been loving bright colours more and more. This blue silk-blouse is one of my favourite clothing idioms at the moment and of course I love the shoes. I had no chance to wear them outside.
I choose to pair the shoes to the blouse because orange is the complementary colour of blue and it matches perfect. 

On the eyes: GOSH Eyeshadow in BROWN

On the lips: ESTÉE LAUDER Lipstick - FIG 

I applied a bright lipstick because I think it matches the look best. The outfit is simple but has colour in it and in my opinion it looks much better to wear a bright colour on the lips to drag a little focus on it as well. 

Necklace: H&M

Blouse: ZARA

Trousers: 1921

Shoes: Vic Matié

Actually I'm trying to find "my style" and I am a person who can't decide between the "cool" and the "chic" fashion part. I tend to go with the chic part because I think it'll last longer and I have to say that there was a time I hated to go shopping because I always asked myself the same question: "Does this really fit you? Do you really need this?"

Lately I started to try out new thing and I stopped thinking to much. 

I know which colours fit me and I know that I won't buy any too cool idioms.

Normally I am into grey, beige, black white and all the other natural and very basic but though absolutely pretty colours and since I have stopped over-thinking about that whole clothing thing I bought a few "cooler" idioms and I absolutely love them.

Maybe I am going to be doing a collective haul on these idioms.

I am wearing ESSIE CAPRI on my toenails right now and I actually thought it was a little bit more red but I like it although. You have to know that I am the laziest person belonging to toenails. ;)





I wish you all a beautiful day and

LE JARDIN ET NOUVEAUTÉ

Hey Lovers,

Last weekend was the only beautiful day in a long time and guess what? It has been raining since then. The sun was shining and I got a few new things.

In the afternoon I prepared everything for the BBQ in the evening. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures of the yummy food but Summer hasn't even started so I am sure I'll get another chance to photograph a typical BBQ at Maison Maria. ;)

Okay let's start with what I got last weekend:

The first thing I got is a pair of shoes and OMG I am so in love with these. I have been looking at them since they arrived at my parents shop. These wedges are from the company Vic Matié, an Italian shoe manufacture. And of course they have a neon orange detail. I am so obsessed with the colour orange right now. It always used to be my favourite colour when I was a little child and now I like it again very much. :)

I went to the drugstore and got a few things I really needed and as always I couldn't resist getting some goodies. I stopped at the ESSIE counter and got a orange nail polish with a hint of red in it.

The colour is called CAPRI and I love the island Capri very much. It is extremely beautiful there.

The next beauty related idiom I got is an eyeshadow from the company GOSH, which I really wanted to try out for a very long time. The company came out in Austria last fall I think, but I am not sure. I actually own one product of them, a velvet lip primer, which I never use, not because it isn't a good product, but I am too lazy to use 500 products in the morning. 

Anyways I got the eyeshadow in the colour BROWN.

The eyeshadow has a warm undertone and a few sparkles in it. I think it is the perfect everyday colour because it can be used on its own. Apply it all over the lid and blend it away to create a soft shade and build the colour in the crease. Blend everything well together and you have a beautiful and little edgy everyday look.

This is how the colour looks blended away.

It would also look very good mixed with a lighter or even a darker colour.

The pigmentation of the product is also very good.

I used the eyeshadow the following week and noticed that without a primer underneath it'll smudge away easily. 

But with a good primer it is a good eyeshadow.

The thing I like the most is of course the colour.

As the weather was so nice I went out and took some pictures of our beautiful garden. I love to be in nature and I love flowers. We have a lovely rockery. As child I used to play with all the stones and I even built little houses for my barbies and little dolls. But I also liked to climb onto the bigger stones or play football with my friends.

We have a lot of fruit trees and shrubs. We also have red and black currants in the early summer. I absolutely love the juice and even more I like the yummy jam that we make out of them. Here you can see red currants in the middle of Spring. They are still green but I am looking forward to eat them. 

I wore simple black jeans, a jeans-shirt and coral-pink nail-polish that day.

I absolutely love to be barefoot. To me it is a sign of freedom and it makes me happy. Also it is good for your health. 

I hope the sun will be up in Austria soon an that Summer returns again. I am sick of wearing thick jackets and Hunters - although they are pretty stylish - and I am sick to freeze all the time. 

The only good thing this weather brings with it is that nature is able to regenerate a little bit.

The glaciers won't melt as soon as they would if there was extremely hot weather.

The wood will grow fast and there might be new springs. 

Anyways, I wish you all a nice evening and 

GLITTERING BOTTOMS

Hey Lovers, 

Yesterday my boyfriend and I went to one of the most beautiful places in Innsbruck. To the Castle Ambras. 

I wore my new blazer from Primark I got the other day. It was a real bargain, I paid only 12 € for it. 

I paired my glitter sequin bottoms from ZARA and a simple black shirt to the blazer. 

My sunglasses are from Ray Ban. At the beginning I didn't like them that much but now I start liking them more and more. 

The necklace gave the top of the outfit a little sparkle. 

To light up the whole look I wore my beige Vic shoes I had gotten a few years ago but I have never worn them before. 

Now I am simply in love with them. They are really comfortable and I basically love Italian shoes. The design is always so chic, fashionable and very very futuristic. 

I am going to post an article on my newest shoes. They are all Italian and actually they are old but now they are the most fashionable shoes ever. But more on that later.

Anyways, we stopped at the restaurant in the old castle and drank coffee and ate "Apfelstrudel" and "Topfenstrudel", typical Austrian pastries. 

It's a puff pastry filled with either apple slices and raisins or curd and raisins. 

I really like this sweet dish. 

Before coffee and "Strudel" we took a long walk in the park around the castle. It is just beautiful there. I think this is now my favourite place in town. 

I love the nature so much. I like being there and taking walks. To me this is real harmony and I can relax the best out in nature. I grew up on a farm and I am used to be outside all day long.

Now I have to stay inside most of the day and I am living in a little town. 

Luckily the surroundings are natural and not far away.

Wish you all a beautiful day and
