I personally loved the outfit above but when I look at the pictures now I think I see a huge resemblance to the Blues Brothers. Anyways Kimonos are life to me. They are one of the best Summer staples you can get. Cute over a dress, cool worn with a pair of denim and also the perfect cover over a bathing suit. 

For this look I went with the first option – kimono over dress. If you have a ton of uni colored dresses the colorful kimonos are perfect for you. Absolutely spices up the usual.

Blue seems to be the color of the season for me. I have scrolled through my Instagram and found a ton of blue pieces. I wasn´t even aware of this. So to complement the baby blue kimono I put on a pair of blue and white striped mules. 

As far as accessories goes I went all in with a black straw hat, a pair of sunglasses and my Tory Burch Gemini Link.

Happy Saturday you guys,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sonsored)

we made it to week two of the #closetchallenge and so far so good. I have only added a few things to my cart as fall inspo but that´s it. The longer I am away from looking for things the less I am thinking about.

My mind is already thinking about all things Fall but since it will stay hot for the next few days Summer clothing it is and therefore I am going to share a lot more inspo on my Instgram stories.

We are heading out for dinner now with friends. See you on Monday. Have a nice weekend.

TGIF ladies, 

I am sharing a family recipe with you today. To be honest we don´t have many recipes in our family which have been passed on by generations, maybe a good handful, but the ones we do have are delicious.

So for today´s Food Friday blog post I am sharing my grandma´s nut cake recipe. It was the only cake she has ever made or could make and we got to enjoy it every weekend but it was awesome. So soft and juicy inside and a chocolatey delight on the outside. 

Maybe the trick are the secret ingredients you can find inside the cake – whole hazelnuts and chunks of dark chocolate. Sounds good? You would be surprised how delicious it tastes. 

So without no further ado I am sharing the recipe with you.

Grandma´s Nut Cake Ingredients

 – 250 gr. of sugar

 – 250 gr. of flour

 – 125 gr. of butter

 – 3 eggs

 – 1 package of baking powder

 – 250 gr. of hazelnuts

 – 250 gr. chocolate chunks

 – extra chocolate to melt over the cake

 – melt the butter and mix it with the eggs and the sugar until fluffy

 – add the dry ingredients until your batter is mixed nicely

 – add the chocolate chunks

 – pour the batter into a bundt cake tin (every other cake tin would work fine too)

 – put it i the oven for 35 to 40 minutes by 180° C

 – let the cake cool down and pour the melted chocolate over it

 – if you like you can put some hazelnut chunks on the warm chocolate to decorate as well

Check out my recipe tab for more great dishes/sweet treats/drinks here.

See you tomorrow for round two of my #closetchallenge.

Happy Thursday my lovely ladies,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate LInks-not sponsored)

let´s talk tanning today. We are heading towards the end of Summer and you might think by now I would have a slight tan of my own but I don´t. I have been more outside than ever because I am home with our baby plus we have a blow up pool but I am still pale over here not to say white, snow white.

I have tried different self tanner but to be honest I was staying away as long as possible to be more specific until this year. Do you remember the tanning lotions that came out way back when we where teenager? They were impossible to apply evenly all over so there was always a spot where your natural skin color still existed and the selection has been more than poor. With this still in the back of my mind I dreaded using self tanner for a long time but I have found a great alternative – the Vita Liberata Body Blur.

What is it and what does it?

Bacically it is a foundation for your skin. It colors your skin and definitely blurs out little bumps and bruises plus the body blur leaves a smooth and shiny finish thanks to shea butter as ingredient. It is supposed to hold up to 24 hours. 

You can apply it with your hands or a make-up brush but I used a self tanner mitten to apply it as evenly as possible. I got the color Latte Light and it definitely looks still natural on my skin but I think I could also have gone one shade darker. 

I liked it a lot as it doesn´t rub off on the clothing plus it survived half an hour in the blow up pool. It definitely is a great alternative to a actual self tanner or a spray tan. I would not recommend to use it daily but it is great for events where you want to look good from head to toe. Although it is a little pricey costing 35 Euro it absolutely beats being out in the sun and getting burned. 

Have you already tried it as it is not new ? Did you like it?
