Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
I wanted to get this room done for almost forever. Since we moved in this figured as a boxroom and everytime I cleanded it up it became a new mess within a few days. Even if we would have guests they would not be able to stay in this room and to be honest I was fed up of this mess so I decided to work on a theme which could work with this small room. 
The room was already colored in a cappuccino color and had one red wall. In fact I hate painting and I didn´t want to get a new color for the room cause I actually liked the combination.
I wanted to go with a modern black and white theme for the room since the red was enough color for a small room like that. I changed the curtains from red into white and also the bed from wood into a beautiful ironbed. 
There was a picture above the bed which I have changed into these two canvas pictures. I ordered them from posterxxl and the print is bought from etsy. The shop is called PrintsHomeDecor and they have many fashion prints. 
The shelves where also red but they are Ikea so I just bought the same ones in white and just changed them. The decoration on the shelves mostly is from H&M or from Nanu Nana. I linked everything for you under the photos.
Now onto the bedside table. The drawer is from Ikea from the Malm series as well as the dresser but I loved the way they matched with the floor so I left them inside. I found this lamp at TJMaxx for a real steal. The clear part looks so clean and modern I fell for it immediately. I also ordered two coffeetable books for the bedside table and added two candles. 
How gorgeous is this adorable little bench covered with a white faux fur. It is perfect to put your bag or your clothing on and it also adds such a charme to the whole room. 
The mirror area was a little harder to arrange. There was a big golden mirror before which is now in my office so I needed the same size or a bigger mirror to cover up the traces on the wall.
And in fact I had no idea what to put on the dresser as well. It took me some time to figure out but then it was clear. If I would be a guest at someones house I would not want to bother every couple hours to get something to drink so I think a tray with a few drinks and glasses is just the right thing.
The beadspread, the cat pillows and of course the black and white carpet rounded up the whole theme for the room and in my opinion it turned out perfect. Even I would like to spend a night in our guest room now. 
What do you think? I still have three other house projects planed for this year so stay tuned. Two of them are finished already.
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Casual Saturday #31…

….


Hi guys and happy Saturday,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
this sure has been a hard week for me. First of all I was still at the beginning and second of all I had to go to work in the end, even on Friday. But now it is the weekend. I am brainstorming new ideas and also new recipes. And overall there isn´t much I am doing. 

We are at a birthday party tonight. Let´s see how this turns out (starts with a soccer game on TV).

But first things first. I am already packing for our upcoming trip to Lake Garda so my bedroom looks chaotic. A lot. But my luggage from SuitSuit has arrived and I am so happy. It is big and pink (color is Pink Lady) and super affordable and I think it fits everything I want to take with me.

Also there is still some stuff I need to get. I really need a pair of great nude colored bras and I also wanted to have a pair of white statement earrings in shape of a flower or somehow white or nude.

I alos ordered some skirt from Asos (they had a 20% off day this week) but have to try them on first. I realized that in fact I don´t need anymore skirt for our vacation cause we can´t stay four weeks but Summer is starting so it probably won´t hurt.

!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p, cb; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; cb = new Date().getTime().toString(); p = ‚//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js?cb=1526560090494?cb=‘ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‚object‘){ if(doc.readyState === ‚complete‘){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ’script‘, ’shopsensewidget-script‘);

I also finally got my kitchen ready so this is going to be the next room I am shooting, also our entry way only misses one piece which is already ordered. So happy we can finally end the renovation and decoration phase and have much more time to do other things or nothing.

I have some new recipes I want to try out first but I am pretty sure there might be a bunch which are interesting for the blog.


The week in blog posts:
Monday – The perfect black asymetrical midi dress…
Tuesday – The white denim mini skirt…
Wednesday – Wedding Wednesday – DIY rustic wind lights…
Thursday – Cheetah print ruffle dress and bamboo bag…
Friday – Food Friday – greek summer salad…

But for now I am watching the Royal Wedding of Meghan and Harry.

I am wishing you all a nice weekend and thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys,

 we are in the middle of BBQ season so I am sharing some I am sharing a bunch of easy and quick side dishes the next weeks. Today´s recipe can´t be exceeded in its simplicity. A super easy and super quick Greek Summer Salad.


You need 5 ingredients:
– 1 cucumber
– 1 glass of black olives
– a pound of tomatoes
– 1 piece of feta cheese
– 2 or 3 purple onions (I like the purple ones better for eating them raw cause they aren´t as spicy as the white ones)


Cut everything into small pieces (depends on how you like to eat it) and mix it togehter in a big bowl.


For seasoning I just used two table spoons of simple freeze-dried salad herbs and olive oil as required.
Mix everything together (that´s how you get a better feel of how much olive oil you need).

We are going to have a BBQ on Saturday so stay tuned for more recipes. 

Have a nice Friday. Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Cheetah print ruffle dress and bamboo bag…

Hi lovelies,

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

we are still in pouring rain over here. It is incredible how much it can rain. There where three thunderstorms yesterday throughout the day and a huge one in the night.

So I thought I am posting a look on the warmer side. I have worn this last weekend and loved it. A good cheetah print is something you can wear for years and years to come so I love buying pieces with this print. Not only dresses but bags and cardigans and beanies –  you get my point right!!

The color combination of tan, black and white is – I think – the most blogged color combo I have ever seen and I can totally relate to that.

I have paired the printed dress with my favorite pair of tan wedges and my beloved bamboo bag. I had worn this look to a BBQ and everybody wanted to see my bag. I still love it so much. It is pure art to me.

The hair style I am wearing in lots of my photo shoots lately is one I have seen first over on M Loves M a few month back. But now lots of bloggers love to style their hair this way. It puts such a girlie feel to your look and loosens it up a lot.

Hope you are having a great day. It feels like Monday to me today cause I am the first day back at work. But tomorrow is Friday already.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
