Instagram lately…..

Hi guys

summer finally arrived and I am sooo into it I can´t even tell. These days it is pretty hard to get and post a lot of pictures for you because it is still the European Championshiop – this means there is a BBQ in different houses every day. So I don´t have this much time for taking outfit pics but I do my very best for you.

And the weather – what can I say about this. It is pretty hot outside and I couldn´t be more happy and there are summer sales going on everywhere. 
There are so many things to do when it´s hot outside – take a look at my Summer Bucket List Post for some inspiration.

So here are my summer outfits I have currently worn…..

Pants – H&M
Top – New Yorker
Button Down – old
Shoes – Graceland
Bag – Mango
I had worn this one earlier this week for going out with my love.
The pant is like a culotte but not as wide as the usual ones. I paired my button down shirt with a top underneath because it is pretty transparent – but also lightweighing so it´s perfect for hot days.

Skirt – Vero Moda
Bandeau – H&M
Sandals – H&M 
Bag – Mango
Another great summer outfit even the colors are darker than I usual wear during the day. A midi skirt with a slot on the left side and my favorite bandeau top (from H&M  they have lots of different colors every year).

Dress – H&M
Shoes – H&M
Bag – Bruno Banani
This dress is a classic one for a garden party – in my opinion. The blue color is awesome – it is so bright it competely changes your mood. Had worn this on Saturday for attending my boyfriends sisters birthday garden party.




 Dress – Heine
Shoes – Anna Field
Bag – Bruno Banani

A nice maxi dress for the not so hot summer days. It has T-Shirt sleeves and the pattern with the pops of red is just gourgeous.




Dress – H&M
Shoes – Schutempel 24
Bag – Bruno Banani 
Cardigan – H&M

Another gorgeous summer dress in red and white (I am sorry but for me it is the perfect color combination for summer). It is so cute and flattering. Just perfect for the hotter days.




Dress – New Yorker
Cardigan – New Yorker
Bag – Bruno Banani
Shoes – Anna Field

I do like the gingham prints with almost every color but it comes out best in black and white. You gotta tell. 
Dress – Comma
Cardigan – New Yorker
Shoes – Tamaris
Bag – Guess
Another of my typical me dresses. Light material with flower print and lots of colors and of course some lace. 




Shirt – old
Pants – H&M
Belt – old 
Shoes – very old

This is one of my typical casual friday outfits. We do not have an official casual friday at work but as it is just a half day it doesn´t really matter how you dress on this day.
But I still like this outfit a lot. I do not often go white on white but in combination with the tan color it is really fresh and nice.

Had been a very dressy 😉 week. 

Wishing you all a great weekend.
Take care. See you. Love K.

Summer Bucket List….

Hi guys

today I am annoucing my Summer bucket list….

There are eleven things to do to enjoy the summer to the fullest…

#1
Make you own summerdrink

Whether it is a recipe you found somewhere or it is mixing your own drink.
I always like to make a typical sangria with red wine and lots of fruits for summer.

Recipe:
one bottle of red wine
one bottle of sparkling water
orange juice
a cup of brandy you like
apples
oranges
lemons
some sugar
cut the fruits into slices
put the sugar, the orange juice, the wine, the brandy and your fruits into a bowl and cool it down over night.
Put some ice cubes and the sparkling water into it before serving
Enjoy 🙂 

#2
Spend the evenings outside..
This is really important -for me- because sitting outside on the evenings when it is still warm and light until ten or eleven p.m. does a lot for your mood. People are feeling better in the summer month spending the days in the warmth with lots of fresh air. And it is also a great oppurtunity to invite your friends or neighbours and chat for hours… 🙂

#3
Create your own Spotifiy Summer Playlist….

Here is mine for example. I always mix new songs with classic ones.
1 – La Isla Bonita – Madonna
2 – Shine -Years & Years
3 – Shake it off – Taylor Swift
4 – Coming Home – Sigma feat. Rita Ora
5 – Sangria – Blake Shelton
6 – Seven Years – Lukas Graham
7 – Show me Love – Robin Schulz
8 – I just want my baby back – Jerry Kilgore
9 – Lana del Rey – Summertime Sadness
10 –  Madcon – Don´t Worry

a few of mine for example….

#4
Visit your local lakes…
 For a real refreshment on a pretty hot day there is nothing better than laying by a lake. The shadow is cooler under trees and lakes are so refreshing and the best is you can also take your dog with you. So the furry ones can also cool down on those days…


#5
Take a weekend of…
Choose a weekend and a place nearby (about two to three hours away) you always wanted to see and stay the weekend there with your boyfriend or your girls. This can be a very relaxing weekend. Sometimes it is a need to get out of your stressful weeks and full weekends of getting lots of errands done and vising lots of people. 
Austria Trend Hotel Salzburg


#6
Wear your favorite dresses…
Nothing gets me better in summer mood than wearing my summer dresses. You feel different wearing these flattering, lightweighing and floral or nautical or paisley patterned dresses.
#1 mint berry
#2 missguided
#3 Tommy Hilfiger
 
#7
Fall in Love….
Summer sets lots of feelings free. So maybe you find a new love or you fall even more in love with the one you already got 🙂


#8
Summer Reading….
Choose some books you would like to read during summer. There is lots of time – while laying at lakes or at the pool. 
Have a look at booksofthemonth.com for some inspiration. They do have 5 New York Times bestseller every month.



#9
Try out summer recipes…
 When you love cooking like I do you might get in cooking mood in summer. They vegetables and fruits are different, the meals get lighter and more creative and I always get in this californian cooking direction – so my fav at the moment is definitely some great GUACAMOLE.

Recipe: 
2 ripe avocados
dried tomatoes
cream cheese
1 lemon
salt and pepper

Put everything toghether and mix it until it has the consistency of cream cheese.

Enjoy with bread or flatbread or just pure – yummy
#10
Get your feet ready…
For wearing sandals you gotta get your feet ready cause this is a must have for everybody. Fix your nails and paint them in a hot and trendy color and remove your cornea and lotion your feet to make sure they look soft and healthy.

#11
Book a summer vacation…
We already booked our summer vacation. It is going to Italy but I am not going to tell you any closer.
 I am sooo looking forward to this. Haven´t been out for a long time after packing and moving and doing tons of stuff in my new home.

#12
Summer BBQ´s
Arrange as many Barbecues as you can. There is nothing better in summer than cooking outside, eating with your friends and sipping a beer and enjoying the sunset.

This is my summer bucket list for this year. Some points even stay the same for most of my years but I am pretty satisfied with this one.
What are your summer plans ? Let me know.
Take care. See you. Love K.

Nude Accesssoires….

Hi guys

the best thing about summer is that we can use all of our light accessoires. The colors are brighter and should pop out so there is nothing better than a nude handbag, hat or even sunnies to set the focus on the color. But that doesn´t mean that it wouldn´t be worth it to take a look at them…

And the best is nude accessoires almost fit to every piece of my – and probably also to your – summer wardrobe. So these ones are really great for your budget because they are so versatile in using them and there are sooo many combination ideas – you won´t need as many pieces.

Hope you all had a nice weekend (I had two BBQ´s and a birthday party to attend and yesterday was antoher soccer game I had to watch – Germany vs. Slowakia and we won – so I probably need a weekend to rest from this weekend 😉 )and you are having a great start into this week.

Take care. See you. Love K.

Review – Book of the month…

Hi guys

today I want to show you somethig I found by coincidence on Instagram and it turned out to be absolutely great.


Book of the Month

A website / online book delivery service.

When you decide to join their club you can choose which different kinds of books you usually read or you would like to read like:

History
Fantasy
Crime
Science – Fiction
and so on…

after that you can decide how long you want to get books they choose for you. You can pick one month, three or 12 and of course how many books you read per month and how many you would like to get each.

There are lots of photos and reviews on Instagram where you can have a closer look at.
This is the first book I got and it is in the June selection (have a look here). It is a novel and it is called Moden Lovers – from Emma Straub.
Haven´t read it yet – I thought I am gonna take it to my summer vacation but that is at the end of August and I don´t think I can leave it unread this long…….
It is an awesome page and a great idea and I have always been searching for something like this…





And if you like reading it is a nice alternation – instead of picking any books you get them recommended.

Take a look and try it out. Have fun reading.

Take care. See you. Love K.
