Good morning guys,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links/Markennennung-not sponsored)
after all the holiday hustle and giveaway posts I am back with a fashion post today. By following my blog you might know that I am a sucker for leopard print. Absolutely love it. Wouldn´t change it. 
So since leopard print has been so trendy over the last few years there are so many different pieces and color combinations out there. I choose to go a little aside the classic color theme and ordered this olive green leopard print knit sweater.

 I decided back and forth on how to combine it but I think it looks best with a pair of classic blue jeans. Olive green really is such an underrated color. It works great with so many other colors and fits every skin tone.


To stay in the color theme I decided to match my accessories to the spots and add some sparkle with my golden plattform sneakers.


I wanted it to be a cozy and casual Sunday look and that it just how it turned out.


My last giveaway starts tomorrow so be sure to check that out. It is going to be very sweet.


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

10 Days of Christmas Giveaways – Day 8 – skin care secrets…

Good morning guys,
 (post contains affiliate links/giveaway/Post enthält Affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Giveaway-not sponsored)
I am back (after a little break) with giveaway #8 from my 10 days of giveaways series. Last week has been such a whirlwind and I had so so so much to do that I made a promise to myself, I am never ever again going to take so many appointments for ones week. I totally forgot about one and almost forgot a second one too.
But this weeks posts are going to be back regularly and in order (I need that for my sanity and also you guys know what´s up each day).
But let´s get to today´s topic. Who gets super dry skin in the winter months and hates it? I bet there where many hands up in the air. Me too guys, but I have found a product line I love and always switch back when winter time rolls around.  

The Neutrogena body lotion is my absolute favorite when it comes to dry, itchy and flaky skin. There probably isn´t a feeling I hate more than getting out of the shower and having the feeling of tight skin. Everybody who get´s extreme dry skin knows what I am talking about when I say your skin feels like it is too small for you.

I use the Neutrogena body lotion for very dry skin after every shower/bath. It enriches your skin with the moisture it needs while it soaks in very quick and leaves a smooth and enjoyable feeling on your skin. Also the hand cream is the perfect addition to throw into your handbag for when your are on the go. Washing and sanitizing your hands many times throughout the days (flu season is right around the corner) leaves your hands dry and itchy. Also the prettiest nail polish doesn´t look good when your hands are dry and bloody.

So for this reason I am giving away two sets of Neutrogena body and hand lotion. Be sure to enter below cause the cold is rolling in and you´ll be needing all the help to take care of your skin. Good luck.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Holiday Party – frosty table scape in silver and white + Giveaway winners…

Keine Kommentare

….

Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)
I am finally sharing the winter wonderland inspired table scape I set up for our holiday party two weeks ago!!! How can it possibly be almost the middle of December. Christmas is on the day two weeks away and there is so much I wanted to get done before. 

So first things first. Let´s start by sharing this adorable table scape with you so I can at least cross one thing of my list. 

I wanted to have an all whimsical and frosty table scape for this years Holiday party (party for our friends, not family there) so I incorporated lots of white and silver. By putting it together I had a little fear that it could turn out super boring but I absolutely loved it in the end.

I went with gray table runners speckled with white stars and snowflakes all over. To stay in the theme the platters where also silver as most of the table decor. The cotton napkins are also a light hue of gray. Meanwhile I prefer cotton napkins over disposable ones cause you just need to wash them and they are ready for their next use. Aaaand they add a much more luxe look to the whole table. The napkin rings are the most funny and pretty I have seen in a while and they completed the theme perfectly.
 So for the decoration I added a silver garland to beginn with. In the middle of the garland I put the candle holder including gray candles. For the rest of the table decor I opted for silver and white ornaments. I really love decorating with ornaments and since there are so many different shapes and colors it will probably never get old. To add some wintery and frosty feels I got a bunch of pinecones from our drug store and also a little wodden sleigh and glittery trees. 
The rest of it was kept pretty simple. White plates, silver cutlery and simple glasses. I really didn´t want to loose the focus on the decor.  
As a little guest favor I got these adorable little Raffaelo snowflakes.
It was such a nice evening with lots of stories and laugther and everybody was filled with good food and drinks as they left. 
Are you planning on inviting your friends for a holiday party into your home? Be sure to check out last years table scape here.
And now I am sharing what everyone is waiting for. The giveaway winners for:
– the pink plaid blanket scarf – Colleen B.
– the statement earrings – Jasmin F.
– the Yankee Candle in Holiday Sage – Jasmin F.
Congratulations. Be sure to check your mails as I am going to write you for further details.
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Latest beauty buys + MAC Shiny Pretty Things holiday collection….

Keine Kommentare

….

Happy Sunday guys,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)
so for today (usually there wasn´t a beauty routine planned for today but my schedule got a little mixed up this week so I am sorry) I am sharing another round of my latest beauty buys (I have found a lot of stuff to try and I also have some random things to share I rebuy every time its empty) so let´s grab a cup of coffee and work through it.

The Styled Collection travel case // I first came across this as Katey Mc Farlan from Chronicles of Frivolty reviewed it and I loved it right away. Different compartment, see through and of course a chic design. You name it. But it usually costs 88 $ and that was way more I wanted to spend. So I left it and ordered it a few months lather as it was on sale for 55 $. So happy it finally arrived. We are travelling again in December and I can´t wait to try it. Currently it is on sale for 67 $.

NYX matte lipstick color Siren // A deep plum shade similar to a glas of merlot. This is a dark and moody color but still daylight appropriate. Would look awesome with a skirt or pullover in the same color. 
Bepanthol lip creme // So so happy I ordered this lip creme. Bepanthol is a health brand with usually sells cremes for insect bites and blisters so I was a little sceptical by ordering their product but I am glad I did. Best lip creme ever. I use it every night and it makes the most smooth lips I have ever had and especially quickly.

Rituals The Ritual of Dao hand balm //I have been using the body butter of this line for about two years now and what I love most about it that it isn´t to sweet and has a more masculine scent and bits and pieces of white lotus. I recently discoverd that they have hand balm so I had to have my favorite scent as a hand balm too. It also is a pretty decorative piece and would make a great stocking stuffer as well.

Chiara Ambra foot mask // This is kind of an odd product to me. I knew for a while it existed and finally ordered one with a couple of other products. The foot mask actually contains two sock like thin sheets with the product inside. You are supposed to keep it on for about 20 minutes and in this time you have to sit still (not with like a face mask where you can clean the kitchen with). I didn´t like the feeling at all sleeping into the cold and slimy sock actually it was really gross but it works like a dream. Super soft and hydrated feet. Exactly what you need after wearing boots all week.

L`Oréal Paris Elnett de Luxe hairspray // This is a really random but it is my favorite hairspray ever. I have been using it for years and although I have tried many different ones this one is my all time favorite. The smell, the texutre and the hold are one of a kind.

The Body Shop shea body butter and lip butter // Also another random thing I love. The The Body Shop shea body butter has been a staple of mine for years. My skin gets unbelievably dry in the winter (it´s almost dusting and I am by far not exaggerating) so I always keep a pot of it in my bathroom drawer (the other body lotion for the Winter I love is from Neutrogena). A body butter is a richer lotion which is exactly what your skin needs in the winter. It is a bit pricey

MAC Shiny Pretty Things red lip kit // After the beautiful artic and snowflake inspired holiday collection they had last year I have been waiting desperately for this years products. They are a 100% different than last year. Everything was white with silver sparkles and frozen feels and this year it is vibrant, colorful and holographic. I (of course) got a lipstick set. The red lip kit including one liner in the color Cherry, a lipglass in color Pom Date and of course a red velvet matte red lipstick in color Blazing Yule (not extra available since the shade is only made for the holiday collection). The pouch is super cute. Hot pink with a metallic finish and a bow as zipper detail. The whole set is absolutely adorable. The red shades are just gorgeous and I am totally satistifed with it. Would make a super cool stocking stuffer as well as a nice gift. 
 I will probably have another beauty post next week or the week after cause I did find some intersting stuff on the weekend I want to try first. 


We are out and about to see a play which is called the ice queen so let´s see how this turns out. Be sure to follow on Instagram.
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
