Hello my dearest friends,

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

 it is another Friday which means another recipe. The past six weeks have been the hottest we have ever had and I really like the hot summer weather but the temperatures have been too high.


So I was searching for ways to cool us down and help us to survive the heat. How about a nice and refreshingly cool drink to start with. We had been to a Mexican restaurant months ago and they had a drink on their specials which was pretty delicious but I don´t really know what was in there so I tried to copy it as good as possible. In the end it didn´t look like the restaurant drink at all, but I was fine with my “own” version I have created and all of our BBQ guests liked it too.

So here is my super easy and quick summer bowl recipe. 

Ingredients:
– 1 bottle of rosé wine (take whichever you like)
– 1 bottle of Schweppes Tonic Water
– blueberries
– raspberries
– lemon balm or mint

– put in the fruits
– fill in the drinks (I used both bottles and added one bottle of cold water too)
– mix everything together and store in fridge
– add some crashed ice before serving it
– lemon balm is optional but I really loved the look and the taste of it


 Hope you are having some fun weekend plans. Today is Florian´s bachelor party and tomorrow is his grandma´s birthday so there is lots of celebrating over here.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Step up your arm candy game with Civion bracelets // discount code…

Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung-Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-sponsored)
the layering trend is still going strong. Layering  pieces of necklaces has been a huge trend since the beginning of last year. 

So what about stacking your bracelets. There are awesome possibilities to do so. Stacking with other bracelets, different metalls or also huge or tiny watches will look great. There are no rules so you can go totally crazy about stacking your bracelets/watches. I was thinking about this quite a time now and then Civion reached out to me and asked if I wanted to collaborate with them so my thoughts were chiseled in stone.

I have created three different ways/scenarios to combine your bracelets with other bracelets and watches.

#1
// Go for Gold
An all golden look on your wrist works for summer or winter. Gold on tanned skin is spreading all the summer vibes as it looks drop dead gorgeous. Also golden bracelets in the colder months totally get me into the Christmas mood. Cause it is sparkly and festive and although you can wear it every day it is special.
The golden bracelet I am wearing is called The Leaf  and it is available in gold and also is silver if you aren´t a gold fan at all.

#2
// Silver and Rosé
This might have been my favorite combo of all three. The small Shape bracelet worn with the delicate watch reveals such a feminine look which is awesome for days and also nights. Or maybe a great option to wear to a party or to a wedding as a guest. The Shape is available in silver, gold and a matt black.

#3
// Black and Silver
This would totally rock for the cooler days and colder months because it is almost to hard for delicate tops and dresses. But if you would like to wear it that way I am fine with it. The Anchor is a wrap bracelet all in black with a silver anchor which acts as a clasp to close your bracelet. I really like the combo of silver and black watch and silver and black bracelet. The Anchor is available in black and also in brown.

 Of
course you could also wear all the pieces alone if you don´t like to
much going on your wrist or if the ocassion requests it. 

So let´s get to the great part my friends.

Civion is offering my readers a 25 % coupon code to shop their site. The discount code is KATI25. Use this at checkout and you get 25% off of your whole purchase.
Are you a jewelry lover/collector who is making each and every trend their own or are you a little more restrained and only go for classics you can always wear?

Polka dot maxi dress….

Hi friends,
(post contains affiliate links /Werbung-Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-sponsored)
since the temperatures are finally cooling down – slowly but steady – I am in total fall mood. Writing down my fall bucket list, planning fun fall trips and activites and also laying out outfits which can be incorporated in the inbetween weather.

But before seasons change completely I had to share this gorgeous polka dot maxi dress with you guys. I have worn it on the weekend and got so many compliments on it. I really am a sucker for maxi lengths whether it is skirts or dresses I just can´t get enough of it.

The medium sized polka dots on the dress are super fun. In fact polka dots and stripes are my number one patterns in my closet. I always thought it would be flowers but they are only number three followed by leopard print.

I got this super adorbale maxi dress from Rosegal. They have the greatest variety on maxi dresses I have seen in a while for really affordable prices. The polka dot long surplice dress I got could be easily transitioned into fall. Just add a leahter jacket, a pair of heels and a felt hat and you are good to go.

Be sure to always take your meassurements before ordering from their site since sizing can be so different. According to my numbers I got a size L and it fit just fine but I could have sized up one size without having any trouble. 

I kept it pretty simple on accessorizing since the dress is so nice by itself so I just added a cream colored hand bag and a pair of nude sandals. Totally works if you ask me.
Do you have any plans for tomorrows holiday? (probably only here in Germany). We want to try SUP for the first time. This is going to be hillarious.
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Turquoise summer dress…

Hi guys,

we are still in the middle of Summer and heat but somehow it feels like fall is coming closer. The mornings and eveningw are chillier and it is getting dark earlier. There is fog everywhere when I walk Chloe. Kind of mysterious but also a little frightening (started watching Pretty Little Liars again on Monday – maybe not the best idea).

I got this dress in Italy at the local market and I love it. The color is gorgeous. Giving me all the beach vibes with its turquoise green hue.

I paired it with all white since a darker brown or black would be too harsch, maybe tan would work fine.

I really like these kinds of outfits. It looks so put together but just took about 5 minutes to figure out what to wear. That is the effortlessy of summer. Put on a dress and slides and you are ready to go. Although I am really craving fall, especially after the three week heat wave we had. It had almost been 40° degrees every day. That is too much.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
