Summer is in its fullest. That is really all I can see to the weather. I am currently sitting in my office at work starring at the thermometer and am horrified. It is going to be super hot today and I am already sweating at 8 ´o clock in the morning.
Although the weather isn´t made for me I probably won´t say no to any summerdress which is as dreamy and feminine as the one I am wearing above. The gorgeous flower print, the ruffle detailing, the cut and length are the perfect additions to this dress.
I paired it with a couple orange accessoires like my ChiChi Fan city bag and an orange bracelet and to keep the romantic flowing I added a white pearl hair clip I got from amazon.
This summer dress would also be the perfect transitioning into fall dress. Just wear a pair of booties and a leather jacket with it and you are good to go. Can´t wait until it is finally cool outside to try this look.
If you are interested in another home decor post be sure to check back tomorrow. I am sharing all the affordable art pieces we have hung up in our house.
I am back with another beauty post today. To be more specific another lipstick post. I am a total sucker for lipsticks and while I know I don´t need the 40 I have I can´t say no to a new one coming my way. I first have seen the Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon in an ad at Instagram and had to get a few colors for myself (thank god I am not easy influenced 😉 ).
After trying them out for a few weeks I am super impressed. They go on very smooth and precise as the tip is like a pen. The color looks glossy at first but dries matte after some time and stays on super long plus it doesn´t smudge. The crayons have a little sharpener on the other side I discovered recently so the application is staying easy (not like a convenient lipstick where the tip gets flat after some time and it get harder to not smudge).
Overall it is a pretty cool tool. As far as I have seen there are 12 colors available. I got three shades. A red (color Hustle in Heels), an orangy red (color Laugh Louder) and a purple hue (Make it happen). The purple with be perfect for fall.
I would totally recommend them for the price point of 8 Euro and definitely going to add a pink one to my little collection. Which one is you favorite?
Since it is the middle of the week do you guys already have any plans for the weekend. We are probably going to visit a city nearby we have never been to. Hopefully the weather isn´t too hot otherwise it will be a dark living room for me all weekend.
today´s topic is eating and drinking at Lake Garda and which places we tried and loved. I have already shared our day in Verona here and I am sharing a summary of our whole stay next week. But you can always have a look at my travel tab too if you are interested in other places we have been to.
Lake Garda is surrounded by several small cities we have mostly visited during our last stays so we know already where to go to lunch and dinner and what we like and what not. So for today´s post I am sharing some of our favorites and also recently discovered ones. This was the first time we haven´t had breakfast at our accommodation so we also ate breakfast someplace else everyday.
I am gonna split it up by cities so you can have a look at which one you are close or which one you want to visit.
Peschiera del Garda:
Breakfast:
3 Sessanta
Opening hours: 6:30 am to 23 pm
Best breakfast spot we could find. We had the pancakes with Nutella and the bacon and eggs. Both tasted delicious and we ate every last crumb. They also have fresh pressed juice and avocado toast. Definitely coming back next time. Also how gorgeous are the big dog statues. Adorable.
Porto
Opening hours: 8 am to 11 pm
We had the brioche (filled croissants)/orange juice/coffee and the scrambled eggs, bacon/orange juice/coffee menu.
Lunch / Dinner:
Restaurant Bella Vista
Opening hours: 12 am to 3 pm / 6 pm to 11 pm
I had the tuna steak with spinach as a side and Florian had the Gnocchi. Both dishes tasted absuletly delicious. We had been last year too and it was great too. Worth a visit.
Bardolino:
Breakfast:
Lido Mirabello Beach
Opening hours: 9 am to 9 pm
We had a piece of apple cake and a ham and cheese toast. They don´t offer real breakfast so this would be everything you can get but the view is amazing.
Lunch / Dinner:
Trattoria Bardo
Opening hours:
10 am to 12 pm
I had the tagliatelle with chanterelles and Florian had a pizza. Both was delicious and the house wine (white) tastes great too.
Sportsmann-Ceola (between Garda and Bardolino on the promenade):
Lunch / Dinner:
Torre al Casello
Opening hours: 9 am to 11:30 pm
We love to come here immediately after we have arrived at the Lake. It is the perfect first meal with the best view. The prices are almost cheap and the service and food is great.
Lazise:
Lunch / Dinner:
Restaurante Classique
Opening hours: 8 am to 12 pm
One of our favorite spots we always have dinner. I had the sphaghetti bolognese and Florian the tagliatelle with chanterelles. For desert I ordered my absolute favorite and it didn´t disappoint – crema catalana. So delicious. You have to try it. Florian took the surprise desert and it came with the best and most flavourful pistacchio ice cream I have ever tasted.
Garda:
Lunch / Dinner:
Cafe Roma
Opening hours: 7 am to 12 pm
We have been here last year and had great memories but this year the food wasn´t that good. I had the tuna salad and the lettuce was very bitter and hard at times. Florian had the spaghetti and said they were okay. Overall you have a great view and the staff is very nice and quick but the food did not convince me this year.
This have been all the restaurants we have been to during this visit. If you are visiting one make sure to tag me in your story or just comment on my Instagram or blog post.
As always thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

how on earth can it be Monday again. I just made a cake for Friday afternoon and now I am waking up to a foggy and humid as hell morning morning plus this is going to be the hottest week of all year so I haven´t got any plans so far as I know it will be to hot for me to do anything.
So since there isn´t really anything else to do let´s talk about this beautiful polka dot dress. I LOVE polka dots. In my opinion it is one of the most feminine and cute prints out there. I own several polka dot pieces and I love the retro charme they are spreading. It is such an easy print but perfect for so many ocassions.
I have worn this dress to Florian´s sister´s birthday party and it was a total hit. The black and white polka dot print makes it possible for you to combine it with every color you would like. I went with a blush pink and liked it a lot. If you want to spice things up a little I would go with pops of red or a vibrant pink or even a neon orange.
The cute with the flutter sleeves and the open back slit and high waist reminds me so much of the vintage dresses all the divas uses to wear which totally adds a huge glam factor. I you are not sure what pattern might be for you try polka dots. They are not old and dusty in the slightest. They are glamorous and retro.
Hope you all had a great weekend and also a good start into the new week. Thans for stopping by. Take care. See you.
