Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)

I know it isn´t even official summer and I won´t complain but in these hot and humid days all I am craving is an airy oversized non sticky off- shoulder dress which makes this piece perfect.


It is from the H&M L.O.G.G. section and I love it. Got it in two more colors (navy and white dots and black and white stripes) but I think I like the green one the most.


I paired it really simple. Just put on a pair of white wedges and a pair of white sunnies and a matching bag. Unfortunately the little straw bag is sold out but I think this pretty ring handle bag matches as well. 


The gloss I am wearing is from MAC. The Versicolour Stain in Forever Darling. Usually I don´t buy a gloss cause I am still on the matte wave but this one was a gift to another purchase and I love it. It dries really good – not as good as the Retro Lip Stains  but for a gloss pretty well – and stays a long time.

Thanks for stopping by guys. After two day I have only 2 work days left. Italy I am coming.

Flowers and pops of pink…

Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)

why not starting a slow and tired Monday with some pops of pink. I am such a visual person and colors do a lot for my mood (even if not for my tiredness) so every once in a while I need to switch my nudes and whites for pops of pink or red.


I got this skirt a few weeks ago from the Asos sale section and loved it ever since. This is one of my favorite style of skirts. A midi a-line. The pattern and colors are totally me so this was a must buy.


The look I am sharing above is how I stlyed it for work so if you are working at an office which isn´t super formal you can easily pair it with a ruffled muscle top otherwise I would recommend a blouse.


If pink isn´t your thing you could also go with the apricot shade in the skirt. This is why I love patterned skirts so much cause you can extend the way you want to stlye them.


Hope your weekend was as great as mine. We did a lot of stuff but not in the stressful way. Yesterday we visited a cave nearby and it was a really cool experience also cause it only had 8° degrees inside.


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Casual Saturday #33…

….

Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
and happy Saturday. Another super hot weekend is here and I couldn´t be happier. There are some things we have planed but not too much so there is still enough time left for doing absolutely nothing.

Yesterday we where out at the cinema to watch the new Jurassic World movie. They only had 3D which was a little disapointing cause I am not a real fan. I always get a headache watching 3D movies over a long time. But it was alright. I don´t want to say anything about the movie here in case you wanna see it by yourself.

We also went to the home depot yesterday because I want to change a little corner in my bathroom and I need some wood and a few decoration articles.

Today we are heading to my grandma´s. We haven´t been there in weeks so it is time.

For tonight we don´t have a plan so we might have a BBQ for ourselves and call it a night. 

I have tried and tested two brunch recipes which where awesome. Including salmon and other delights.

And tomorrow I am going to make some mini bundt cakes. You might think no big deal right ?! But they are going to include bacon and scallions. They might be the perfect side dish for trying out new red wines. 

In fact there wasn´t so much shopping involved this week. I got some tech stuff like charger, powerbank and other cables but you can read this in #travelthursday ´s post. 

I ordered the invitations for our bridal bruch and also some of the decor I want. But until I know the final number of attending people I can´t get everything.
 I am going with a rose and gold theme. Really girly this time since my wedding colors are orange and burgundy.

After a walk through our local drug store I have added a few beauty products into my home so I am going to try these out first before talking about them but you can click them in the widget below.


Now the week in blog posts:
Monday – Pink flamingo…
Tuesday – DIY – pom pom tote
Wednesday – Buttoned denim skirt – ruffled sleeves…
Thursday – #travelthursday – packing for Italy…
Friday – Food Friday – strawberry mini cakes…


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Food Friday – delicious strawberry mini cakes with cream…

Hi guys and happy Food Friday,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
with the beginning of June the strawberry season has finally started too. I don´t know what it is about this delicious little berry but whether you are making juice, cake or jam out of it or you are eating them pure they are so so good.

And the smell guys. Sometimes I wish I could capture the smell for you. The strawberry field smelled so sweet!!!

Since I am not a real fruit lover I do have my exceptions when it comes to strawberries (or raspberries, pineapples or melons).

We picked about 8 pounds so the first thing I did when I got home was making dough for a strawberry pie (and the leftover strawberries where cut for jam but this recipe is coming next week then).


Here are the ingredients:


for the dough
3 cups of flour
2 tablespoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/3 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or paste
3/4 cup butter not melted


– mix the ingredients together until your are having a sticky dough
– then put some flour onto a clean area in your kitchen
– knead the dough with your hands until everything is combined just fine


-take a rolling pin and roll out dough evenly
– take a cup in the size you like and cut out round pieces 


– I made all the little dough pieces below from one dough so this really is enough
– let them cool down for about 15 minutes
– spread a mixture of confectioners sugar and heavy cream on top and bake for about 20 minutes by 160° degrees


for the strawberries:
– 750 gramms of strawberries
– 2 spoons of sugar


– marinade the strawberries with the sugar and let them rest


for the heavy cream
– take as much heavy cream as you like and whip it until its really solid
(you can make the test by flipping your bowl – if it doesn´t come out the consistency is great (but be careful or you are producing quite the mess)


Now head to your nearest strawberry field and get your fix for the weekend.


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
