Hi guys,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
we are back from our vavation so I am starting the day with a bittersweet feeling today. First of all we are happy to be back cause we missed Chloe and our bed so much but second of all I am back at work today and the weather isn´t as great as the last days so I really would like to have a couple more days.

Also the laudry and the unpacking and the thousands of pictures to sort. Oh boy. So let´s move on to this look I have worn before we left. I really am a lover of maxi dresses and maxi skirt and and also pleated skirts so when they are all in one send them right over.

Coral is a great summer color. It matches so perfectly with taned skin (didn´t have one in this pic but I am on it) and also with so many colors. With dark greens, with nudes and whites and grays and black.

I paired it with a black shirt including a gorgeous flower print. I really loved flowers from the beginning and even if they aren´t on trend anymore I won´t stop wearing them cause they are a real staple to me.

Hope you all had a great weekend and thanks for stopping by. I am working on how to share all my travel information and all the pictures with you.

Food Friday – homemade delicious strawberry jam…

Hi guys,

since strawberry season is still going strong (hopefully we will be blesses with this delicities as long as possible) I am sharing my jam recipe over here. This really is the simplest recipe I have ever made. 

The only thing you need is jam sugar and strawberries and maybe a squeeze of lemon if your strawberries are pretty sweet.

Ingredients:
– 1,5 kilo strawberries
– 1 package of 3:1 jam sugar (should be 500 gr.)
– 1 lemon

Instructions:
– wash the strawberries and cut of the stems. 
– puree the strawberries (depends on how smooth you want the puree to be)

– put the whole package of sugar and the strawberry puree into a pot and heat it up
– put the timer on 4 minutes by the time it starts to cook and let it cook for the whole time
– be sure to stir from time to time and to take a non-sticking pot
– be sure to wash the jars with hot water before filling in the simmering mass so the jars won´t explode
– fill your jam mixture into the jars, close them and turn them upside down until the mixutre is set
(you can also read the instructions on the package)
I put a ribbon around it and a tag onto it and gifted a few to family members but you can also eat them all by yourself.


Have you already tried my strawberry mini cakes? They are super simple and declicious. Get the recipe here.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

My quick and easy pool side make-up look….





….


Hi guys,

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

and happy Wednesday from Italy. We where exploring the fashion capitol Milan yesterday so after a full day of stylishly exploring and walking around we needed to relax at the pool today.


So I thought why not share my quick and easy poolside make-up favorites.


Since I never dive (I would make an exception to swim with manatees or a whale shark) I always put on make-up while at the pool. It is less and more neutral than usual but I still don´t want to be naked.

As base I am using the Maybelline dream cushion make-up in the color sand. It is a darker shade so it is great if you already have a little tan. 


To cover it up and keep it matt I am applying the L´Oréal Perfect Match translucent powder (also got the matching brush cause who doesn´t love a gorgeous mint shade).


Another summer favorite of mine is the Hoola Bronzer from Benefit. I always have one at home. It is just such a staple which gives your look some depth but is isn´t over the top. And you can apply as much as you want.


To finish my look I am using a waterproof mascara from Manhattan. The no end mascara has been a long time favorite of mine. Also have the normal formula at home. I am sticking to the mascara I love cause for me it really is a pain in the butt to find a good one.


Also who doesn´t love some color. I definitely do. I am very happy that L´Oréal came up with a sheer lip color line – the color riche shine lipstick. I got the color glazed pink and I really love it. Gives your lips a hint of color but isn´t overly pigmented. Just the right amount for the pool.

Also a good idea is too take some blotting papers with you to the pool. This way your make-up stays on and you don´t shine also you don´t have to reapply every couple hours.

And last but not least for a quick refresher I got the Biotherm L´Eau. A scented body mist. This smells so so good. My SIL used it one day we spent together and I immidiately loved it and bought it a few days later (totally forgot to picture it, sorry guys).


After talking this much about the pool we are heading to it right now. Thankfully it is right around the corner. 



Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
