Casual Saturday # 15….

…..

Hi guys,

it has been quite a while since our last Casual Saturday post (about + 6 weeks). I just had so much content I wanted to post until the end of summer and beginning of fall but we are back on our Saturday chat today. 

Eating:
We had been to our favorite restaurant two weeks ago and although I am always eating the same I still love it. Baby octopus with lots of vegetables and such a tasty sauce with garlic.
I started making pumpkin pies weeks ago and turned out so delicious I already made it twice. The pumpkin spice cake with cinnamon bourbon buttercream frosting from Mara from M Loves M. I found this recipe while browsing through her food section. Believe me you won´t be disappointed at all.

Shopping:


The first purchase I have to point out is this bag I got from Mango I ordered two weeks ago. The Van Mil bag and I love it not only because it looks a little like a high class designer bag. I wanted to have a bigger crossbody bag with a zipper and a flap (so I can double close it) for our upcoming trip so that nothing can fall out or no one can get in to quick. Only available online.

Off course there are some fall items I have purchased for our living room and kitchen but I am posting my fall decoration next week.


I finally got two pairs of boots I wanted for such a long time. A pair of hazeelnut colored over the knee suede boots from Zign and a pair of navy blue Hunter boots. I love both of them although they are totally different.


The Hunter boots fit true to size and they are super comfortable also the rubber material is so soft. The hazelnut otk boots also fit true to size but they where to tight for my calfs so I had to send them back. So sad. Now the search has begun again. Maybe that is the downside of dancing too much. You have to many muscles in your calfs.

Another thing I got is an embroidered top from Dorothy Perkins.

So what can I say about the embroidered top. Embroidery check. Ruffle sleeves check. Insert heat emoji here 🙂

And the last one for today is this beautiful make-up case for travelling from River Island. Ordered it via Asos. The pattern is gorgeous and it has the right size for all my make-up brushes and beauty products. It is hands down the most beautiful one I have ever got and also the most practical one. I am using this definitely as long as it lives.

TV/Book:
I am pretty ashamed that we are still watching PLL (but the end is in sight) but in fact we don´t watch much TV. Whether we are at the gym or I am reading and Florian is planing on some soccer tactics. 

But there are great books out and I have read tons of book reviews and got a lot of books so I finally had to start on reading them all. I finished The Girl on the Train this week and now I am reading The Obsession from Nora Roberts. If I am through every book I might write a book review for a fall and winter reading list.

I am pretty happy that it is October all ready and we are heading to the black forest to see the fall foliage in its peek in two weeks. Also I am thinking a lot about Christmas these days. How I am gonna decorate and what I am gonna cook this year and also about some presents. Maybe too early?! What do you think ?
Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you

Pink for fall – leopard print bag / dark denim….

pullover bonprix sold out similar here, here, here and here / heels old similar here and I love this pair / bag Buffalo / denim H&M old similar here and here

….

Hi guys,

as you might know I am a lover of anything pink and this fall/winter is perfect for you if pink is your favorite color too. There are so many pink pieces which are available right know.

I recently got this pink knitted pullover from bonprix and I love it. Usually I am a little aware of the material of pullovers like this is cause I can never be sure of the feel of the material by not touching it first cause if it itches me the second I put it on I can not wear it. Not even with a longsleeve underneath. Anyways this one is perfect. Super soft and the pink is just right for me (has a blueish untertone). 

I paired it with a dark denim jeans I got from H&M. I love their jeans section, they just have the coolest pieces and a pair of brown heels with a tortoishell print.

The bag I am wearing is one of the latest I got. It is from Buffalo and I always wanted to have a leopard print bag. I had one many years ago, in fact a really cool one and I don´t know why I gave it away. So dumb.

Do you have any plans for the weekend ? We have to get some thing done outside the house before it is getting really cold. 
Wishing everyone a nice weekend. I am back tomorrow with a long overdue #casualsaturday post so see you tomorrow. Take care and as always thanks for stopping by.

Beige x Black – how to style basic wardrobe pieces….

blazer H&M last year similar here and here / denim even & odd / bag David Jones last season similar here and here / heels Buffalo old similar here and here / shirt old similar here / earrings H&M last season similar here

Hi guys,
in today´s post I am coming up with a pretty neutral color palette which works year round. Beige and black. 

This color combo really works for any ocassion and always looks sleek and put together. For this look I paired my skinny distressed jeans from even & odd with a boyfriend blazer I got from the H&M online store. I really love the loose fit on blazer. Makes them a little cooler and edgier and less business.
The pants where a real steal from Zalando for around 30 €. 
I wore a white shirt with a waterfall collar underneath. Since the pants are really high-waisted I tucked the shirt in and wore a matching belt with a snake pattern and a rhinestone buckle. 

Now on to accessories. The heels are about two years old and I really wear them only from time to time cause I love them. 
They are my favorite pair from Buffalo and not available anymore. The bag was a great find from last February at the Galeria Kaufhof department store (the isn´t a single thing about the brand online so I am trying to find a similar piece). Earrings are H&M and pretty cool. In fact they really have the best pieces of jewelry.

Lips are by Catrice. Color 050 from the 6h lip artist pen.

How has been your week so far? I really got a lot done and you can follow me on Facebook now I have created a page for my blog.

As always thanks for stopping by. I appreciate everyone of you.

Take care. See you tomorrow. Working on a huge round-up on looks we shot but never made it to the blog. Stay tuned for lots of outfit inspiration.

Plaid shirt and Hunter boots at the pumpkin patch….

plaid button down on sale for under 25! Zalando / jeggings old similar here and here / Hunter boots / vest amisu old similar here and here / sunnies H&M  sale under 10!

Hi guys,
about a week ago we visited Jerry´s pumpkin patch (about an hour drive away – was the nearest I could find) to get some of the pumpkin´s I used for my front porch decoration (view post here) and of course a few which can be used for carving for Halloween.

I love pumpkins. I don´t know why exactly. Maybe it is the shape, or the Cinderella background, or the bold orange color or maybe it is just cause they belong to fall and fall is my favorite season !!! Guess we´ll never know.

I finally pulled the trigger this year and got myself a pair of navy blue Hunter boots. I have been thinking a long time about spending so much money on this kind of shoe. In fact it is made of rubber and not leather but I truly love them. The material is super soft and the boots are so comfortable to walk in and also they where the perfect pair to wear for visiting a pumpkin patch.

I paired them with a pair of jeggins and a plaid shirt and also a white vest (did not know before that it actually would be such a nice day) and I was good to go. 
The button up is made from a super soft flanell material and the plaid pattern is perfect for fall.  
 I took a size 38 for the button down. I do like it a little looser so if you want a tight fit take your real size. The boots run true to size, ordered a 37.
