Hi guys,

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

the days are still short and it is still cold outside (not a surprise in the middle of January over here) but at least the snow is gone.

I have been wearing this look about two weeks ago and also the exact same about two month before and I have to say a faux fur collar doesn´t hurt at all. Not only does it look like a light and modern version of a fur coat Anastasia would wear, it also makes you feel warm and fancy.

I paired it with a black dress full of flowers, I got from the Mango online shop some time ago. The dress also includes hues of olive and and white but I think to go with grey accessories was the best choice here.

 This really is a easy and flowy winter outfit. I am always all about dresses and skirts before pants. It is just way nicer than wearing pants. We have all the possibilities here so we gotta take advantage of that.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Wedding Wednesday – details on my Wedding Dress….

Keine Kommentare

….

Good morning y´all,

(post contains not sponsored links/Werbung/Beitrag enthält Markennennung, Verlinkung)

I am more than happy to shar another Wedding Wednesday post around here. Still have to left after this one. It was getting a little quiet with my wedding posts because the holiday content was just too much so this one had to go back to drafts until a free Wednesday which is today.

 It is probably the most important post of this series – the wedding dress. The bride wouldn´t be a bride without it so I wanted to share as many information about mine as I can.

I didn´t have the most detailed idea of what dress I wanted, the only three things which were very important to me are sleeves, a button tape with white buttons on the back and a long dress. 

My dress style is between an a-line and ball gown dress since I have such much faric (seven skirts underneath).  The dress has an in-built corset and a natural waistline (which works very well for every body type). Around the waist line is a belt draped with a little flower arrangement including some silvery pearls.

The neckline is sweetheart and covered with a longleeve made from lace and flower embroidery on the sleeves and on the neckline. Now we are at my favorite part of the dress. The low back with the many many white silk buttons I wanted so badly. A little plus for me – the sleeves also had buttons. Wasn´t too good for getting ready but I had one bridesmaid on each arm and my mum at the back so the buttons where closed in time.

I have never heard of the designer before. It is a Belgian label called Jarice Bridal and my style is called My Dream from their Elegance line. I have to admit I didn´t have a special designer in mind. I just wanted a dress I was a 100 % happy with and I found it. In the first store after trying on about 15 dresses.

It had to be fitted twice. First they shortened it and the second time they made it a little wider around the waist cause I was so anxious it wouldn´t fit on my wedding day but it did and was perfect. 

Looking back I wouldn´t change a thing about the dress and get the same one again.

Thanks for stopping by and if you are a bride-to-be be sure to check out my wedding tab. Maybe your can find some information to help you plan your big day.

Happy Monday you guys,

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

is is snowing where you live? Just asking cause it is pure chaos here. The snow was predicted to come a week ago and as it didn´t snow so we thought we would be safe but the weather has fooled us.

So this look is from last week when we went to try out the new breakfast/brunch place I told you about on Saturday (that is why there is no snow in the pictures).

Do you guys love the poncho trend? I personally love it. Wheather it is capes, ponchos or huge blanket scarves to wrap around my shoulders. I definitely want. The story behind this piece is really funny though. I got it at the Zalando Outlet Store in Leipzig (view travel post here) and realized a few days later, as I was unpacking and hanging stuff on my closet rack that I already had the same piece in a dark green shade (view photo here). These are the disadvantages of not trying things on but this time in a positive way cause I love wearing the green one so much.

I paired my poncho with a skirt like last time. Don´t be intimidated by wearing your poncho with a skirt. If you take a slim silhouette on the skirt it doesn´t look bulky what you might think in the first place. I have worn this short black faux leather skirt and a pair of black giraffe print tights (absolutely love my patterned tights). 

For some pop of color I decided to go with burgundy since I have neglected it pretty bad during the Christmas time. First I thought the shirt would be too dark underneath the poncho and create a strange shadow but it was fine. To complete the color theme I added this burgundy velvet bow and one of my favorite handbags from DKNY. 

My lipstick is the Maybelline Moisture Exteme lipstick in color Burgundy. One of my favorite lipsticks in my drawer. I have it two time cause I am afraid that someday they won´t produce it anymore.

As always thank you for stopping by.
