Velvet dresses didn´t get me as excited as the rest of the fashion crowd when they came out and I wasn´t into them right away. I first thought that is such a grandma material and not flattering at all but I am sure open to be taught a better one. And I was. My first velvet piece was a gorgeous blush t-shirt I have worn so many times the last winter and spring that I can not count it. So the styling of more velvet pieces followed. I got a gold studded blazer jacket, a burnt orange skirt and this beautiful dark blue midi dress. I ordered it from SheIn and it came in time and was made of good quality and great color. Definitely gonna wear this on one of the Holidays. 
I paired it with all gold accessoires and a nude faux fur jacket but it would be also really pretty if paired with silver heels and accessoires.
 
So let´s move on to the next topic I get several question about. Ordering pieces from the SheIn online shop. I know some of you don´t trust the shop or have read lots of bad comments or reviews but I have to say (and this post is in no way sponsored, just wanted to share my experience with you) I have never gotten one bad piece where I thought this has to go into the trash can right away. I never had a lost or forgotten order and customer service is really fast.
 
How is the quality? // It depends on what you get but I have to say mostly good. I really never had such a bad piece I couldn´t wear. The skirt and dresses I ordered had been lined so far. There was never a seam that opened right away or was already open. Also the sequins on differnt items are sewed on very well.
 
How are the prices? // I think they range from very affordable (you could say cheap as well but I really don´t like the negativity of the word) to normal. You cant get a blouse from 8 to 15 € and coats from 20 to 60 €. They also offer daily flash sales including a wide range of products and almost always discount codes to save money.
How long takes shipping? // It depends on the season. They are really busy around every holiday so be sure to place your order early
How is sizing? // Sizing can be really tricky so I wouldn´t give to much of the size comparisons they have. ALWAYS meassure. I do this everytime (had a piece that was way too small on my first order) and I have never had one that didn´t fit again. Be sure that you don´t meassure to tight. One or two centimetres don´t impair the fight or the silhouette but it can give you a little more freedom of movement. 
How can I pay? // So this one is the easiest question of all. You can pay with any credit card and if you don´t have one you can pay through Paypal but you always have to pay upfront. 
 
What else do they offer? // You can get rewards in form of points by confirming the arrival of the package and also by uploading and posting a styled picture with one of your bought articles and I think you also get points by reviewing pieces. I hope this helps a little to get rid of your concerns about bad comments. If you are still not sure about it why not order one simple piece and see if you like it.

Here are some of the pieces I got lately and loved a lot:

– olive pearl ruffled sweater
– leopard sequin pencil skirt
– 60´s inspired tie-neck sweater
– pink corderoy blazer jacket
– clear wooden handle bag
–  neon pink turtleneck sweater
– fringe hem striped poncho sweater
– white eyelet blouse
– scalloped hem t-shirt (so many pretty colors available)
– sequin cami dress


And now have fun shopping. 


As always thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Festive NYE Look – SheIn Sequin Dress + silver accessories…

….


Hi guys,

we are officially beginning the last weekend of 2018 today. Anyone else just recognized?? So it is really time for some New Years Eve inspo over here.

I have been on the hunt for a gorgeous sequin piece for NYE for a while now and now I have two and can´t decide which one to wear. Absolute misery over here!!

So the first one I ordered was this strappy sequin dress from SheIn. I think it is kink of cool. The length is okay with black tights (don´t like my dresses to short) and the sequins are really cool. They are more on the holographic than on the glittery side but they sparkle so that is absolutely fine with me.

I decided to wear it with a black body suit with baloon sleeves I got from SheIn as well. First wanted to wear it with a blazer but I wasn´t quite sure cause if I take off the blazer I only have thin straps and I don´t like my arms at all so the bodysuit is the right choice and the sleeves of it are so beautiful.


I am coming up with the second sequin look tomorrow.

Do you like NYE or is it too much of a procedure to get through? I am not quite the fan but I like the sparkly outfits.


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hello guys,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)
it is the first day after the holidays and are you feeling as strange as I am today? I am still in kind of a holiday bubble where I want to eat all the time, watch movies and lounge around. 

But real life has us back and the days between Christmas and New Years are always so weird. I have to things I want to accomplish before going back to work in January and that is painting and redesigning my bedroom and moving my blog from Blogger to WordPress. Maybe a little to much for only two weeks but I need something that keeps me going.

Since I am still in my Christmas bubble and I don´t want the holidays to end I am wearing as much red and plaid as possible. So this beautiful blazer is on repeat. I tried to dress it down for the days inbetween as it looks much more comfortable. To dress dowm my blazer jackets my first option always is a pair of denim. This loosens up the look much more than a skirt or a pair of black pants – remind yourself not to look to business formal but more casual.

So we have the jeans, now we are adding a simple top. I used a black turtleneck without any pattern or anything. You want to make sure that even when you are dressing down your blazer jacket that it still is the star of the show.

Add the accessories you like. In this case it has been a baker boy cap, a pair of pointed toe booties and a zipper detail hand bag and you are good to go. Oh and of course a red lip never hurt nobody!!

Now I am off to get some paint and get that first project started. 

As always thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys,

this is the moment I look forward to every year. Sending out our Christmas cards and spreading holiday joy in the homes of our friends and family. Since we had a more autumnal and dark theme last year I wanted to have all the reds this year for our outfits.


But let´s move on to the more festive part of the day. I am wishing every single one of my readers a very merry Christmas. Hopefully you get to spend the day with your loved ones and also use them to relax and unwind cause December always is such a busy month. Also I am giving a huge thanks to all of my readers. I am really glad to have you here on my little space of the internet. I appreciate all of you following along.
