Hi guys and happy Tuesday (although it feels like Monday today),

I hope you had a great Easter weekend. The sun finally came out around here so that was a good sign that Spring is on its way. I am back at work today so not such a good sign but the show must go on so I am checking back with another Spring inspired look on the blog today.

White and navy is one of my favorite color combos. There is something light and airy but still totally chic to that mix. 

 The pants are last season but there are dozends of cute white jeans out there. I still prefer the high-waisted trend over all the others and of course the raw hem is still going strong.

 The pullover is from a local store but there are plenty ones with ruffles everywhere. I always like a golden necklace with the blue better than a silver one. Just takes a little of the bluish away and makes the look softer and warmer.


The flats are pretty cool with all the studs and they are also really comfortable. They saved my fashion life last year when I broke my toe cause all I could wear where flats and not even all cause most of them where to narrow.


Do you have any prefered color combinations ?


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Spring trend – platform sneakers and pink….

Hi guys, 
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
how was your Easter weekend ? Did you spend it with your family or did you take a quick trip to somewhere you love ? We had a big Easter brunch at our house and we where invited to Florian´s parents house on Sunday so there was lots of brunching going on.

I for myself consider me a red lover. Can´t just get over a good red shade but from time to time (and it happens more often) I love a great pink or blush shade. So this cardigan sat in my closet for quite a while but let´s be honest – pink and stripes won´t go out of style.

But let´s skip over to shoe trends. A huge trends for Spring are sneakers. The higher platforms and girly colors and embroidery and embellishment. So this is right up my alley. As a total lover of anything heels I finally went for a gorgeous pair of taupe pearl embellished platform sneakers from Tamaris. You can not imagine how light they are. They don´t weigh a thing wearing them on your foot.  They greige or taupe color is awesome and pairs with so many clothes. And how cute are the pearls.

I have combined them to this simple and casual look with a pair of distressed denim, a white cami and a cardigan. But how cute would they look with a striped shirt dress ?

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Casual Saturday #25 and happy Easter….

Hi guys and happy Saturday,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
I am making it quick today since I am aleady up a long time and also ready for my second coffee, prepring for Easter which means making the cake. Setting the table. Doing the flower arrangements. Cleaning the house. 

But while I am working you check what I got for our upcoming vacation (upcoming might be a little misleading since we aren´t away until the middle of June but I am so so looking forward guys).

I ordered two times at Asos this week.

First I wanted to get some flowers and combs for my hair since I can not decide which wedding hairstyle I want so maybe accessories clear things up a little bit. 

I also ordered this colorful cardigan I have had on my wishlist the longest time. Since I have saw it the first time on Emily´s blog The Sweetest Thing I wanted it so badly and now I finally ordered it. The vibrant orange and pink is just the right combo for me. I also got this beautiful striped off-shoulder dress for summer and of course for vacation. I hope it fits. I sized up one size cause I wanted it to be a little longer.

!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=1522229448614?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‘);

The second order wasn´t planned at all. In fact I have been chasing this bag for weeks since I first saw it on Katelyn´s blog Lonestar Southern. I already gave up cause it has sold out twice during the last two weeks so I thought you don´t get a chance to order this. BUT on Tuesday I was looking for a beach or pool bag for our vacation and this one was also listed under this category. Available!! I immidiately put in into my shopping cart cause I couldn´t let this beauty go a third time. 
Also found a super cute beach bag from South Beach in white and with a rose gold print.
 This has to be fate am I right 🙂
!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=1522229448614?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‘);
Another piece I have been looking for quite a while now is a Kimono. I really like the idea of a lightweight oversized and fully printed overlong jacket in awesome colors. 
 Ordered two but I don´t have them yet so I am telling you when I get them how they turned out. 
But enough for the shopping cart situation right now.  

This little update turned out longer than I wanted it to be.

Let´s have a look at my Easter and Spring week in the week in blog posts:

Monday – Eater table scape in Ultra Violett….
Tuesday – Perfect dress for Easter….
Wednesday – White Peplum button down and pops of red….
Thursday – DIY Easter favors – candy filled baskets….
Friday –  Food and Drinks – carrot cake recipe….


I am wishing you and your family a great Easter holiday.


Thanks for taking your time and stopping by. Take care. See you.

Food Friday – carrot cake with white chocolate cream cheese frosting for Easter….

Ein Kommentar

….

Hi guys and happy Friday,
the Easter weekend is finally here and I couldn´t be more excited. Having the whole family over tomorrow. Visiting the other part of the family on Sunday. Maybe we get some rest on Monday. 
Hope the weather is getting a little better (currently rain and 8°) to hide some eggs outside.
Since everyone in our family is loving my carott cake (the only exception are my parents) I made kind of an Easter tradition out of it. Not sure if I already wrote about it but it was the first cake I have made Florian when we started dating and he loved it ever since so this is our very own Easter tradition.

So put on your aprons, get your ingredients and let´s bake. 

Ingredients batter:
 – 4 eggs 
– 200 grams of grounded almonds
– 250 ml rape oil
– 1 tablespoon cinnamon 
– 2 tablespoons baking powder
– 250 grams flour
– 250 grams sugar
– 375 grams carrots grated


– mix eggs, sugar, oil and cinnamon together
– mix in the carrots and the almonds
– mix in the flour and the baking powder
– put the batter into a buttered round pan
– bake for 40 minutes at 180 degrees

Ingredients frosting:
– 250 grams white chocolate melted and cooled
– 2 tablespoons lemon juice 
– 320 grams butter soft
– confectioners sugar sifted 
– 450 grams cream cheese in room temperature


– mix everthing together and let it cool again for about ten minutes until you put it onto your COLD cake
– spread evenly


Decor:
– 12 marzipan carotts

You could also decorate with colorful candy eggs but I choose these little marzipan carrots to top the cake with. 

Are you going to make something on your own for Easter ?
