Casual Saturday #28….

….

Hi guys and happy happy Saturday,
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
at the moment I am busy getting myself ready cause we are going to shoot our engagement photos today. I know it is a little late but I really wanted to have warm and nice weather and blooms in the photos than gloomy backgrounds and mud and since the weather was bad so long we are shooting today.

I really got a pretty dress in a fantastic ivory shade for the shooting. This would make the perfect bridal shower dress too. Classic and elegant but with a modern twist. 

Afterwards we are going to have a BBQ to reward ourselves and then we have to do some work in the garden. We are building up a fence so we don´t have to watch Chloe all the when she is in the garden with us. 

I went to the mall on Friday to pick up Florian´s suit from the tailor and also to pick up his button down and his vest for the wedding.

Everything is coming together and there are only a few things left to do. I need to think about the candy bar, the guest favors and flowers. We already made the table decor so we are set in this category.

In fact I didn´t do a lot this week and you are probably already tired of hearing this cause as it turns out afterwards the post is still getting pretty long.

So I am stopping at this point and am recaping the week in blog posts:

Monday – Aldi x Steffen Schraut – the little red dress….
Tuesday – My top 4 Spring and Summer lipsticks….
Wednesday – Perfect pair of sneakers to wear with dresses….
Thursday – Festival vibes – the striped dress….
Friday – Homemade cashew creamer….


Here are a few things I have been crazy over lately….

Hi guys,

have you seen that the annual music festival Coachella in California has started on Friday?

For this reason I got a little festival crazy and got some things which would pair really nicely with the dancing and partying festival crowd down there.
The dress is from the great price section from Zara and it was only 10 Euro. I really love the stripes and the color. The red, tan and navy pairs so well together.  Also the asymetrical ruffle hem is really cute and the material is super soft and super stretchy.
The suede leather jacket has been sitting in my closet for quite a while now but there is the right time and look for every piece of clothing. A matching pair of espandrilles pairs perfectly for the festival scene. Mine are from Vero Moda and true to size.

A hat would also be really nice. A feodora or a felt hat but I had a pretty good hair day this day. Gotta take ´em how they come 😉

 Are you up for festivals or do you prefer less crowded places?

The perfect pair of sneakers to wear with a dress….

Hi guys,

if you are following me on my blog you might have recognized that I am a heel lover. In particular the pretty high and thin heels. 
But sometimes – and this happens even more in Spring and Summer – I am longing for sneaerks. One special pair to be honest. My Converse sneakers. They are indeed my favorite pair of sneakers ever. The crips white paired with the thin red line around the shoe include two of my favorite colors. I also really like the canvas material and that the sole is thicker and a little higher than normal sneakers.

In my opinion a pair of white and low cut Converse sneakers are the perfect option to combine with a dress like I did in the photos above. The navy striped cotton dress paired with the red jacket tied around my waist where the best matching partners for this pair of shoes I could find. 

A little sporty but not too much otherwise it wouldn´t be me anymore. To round up the look I added this absolutely adorable and super matching Tommy Hilfiger stars shopper to the outfit. 

Really loved it and enjoyed running errands.

Aldi x Steffen Schraut – the little red dress….

Hi guys,

isn´t it great that nowadays so many great designers cooperate with big and affordable clothing chains like H&M (Stella Mc Cartney, Kenzo soon Moschino) and C&A (Cindy Crawford) but also with discounters like Walmart (Max Azria and Miley Cyrus) and to my very own surprise with Aldi
I really got excited as I found out that designer Steffen Schraut is designing a few pieces for the discounter. And there was especially one piece I totally wanted which I ended up getting. Such a lucky day for me. 🙂

The red dress was the first piece I have seen in their weekly magazine and it was love at first sight. First of all I am a huge dress lover. And I am an almost bigger lover of the color red. The dress also isn´t to short. I really don´t like wearing short dresses since they always slide up a little which makes them even shorter and I really don´t feel comfortable wearing these. 

I went to the store on the same day and it was pretty divided. The off-shoulder blouses and dresses where almost sold out as well as the athletic wear. But they had some of the beautiful Kimonos and pants left. I found the last red dress in my size and immidiately put it into my cart.

The red is a rich and vibrant cherry red and guys the material is super soft. It is wrapped on one side so it is really flatterin around your waist and stomach area and it has underlining wich makes it perfect to wear for every ocassion. Also it can easily be dressed up and down. 

My review about this piece is really positive. I like it a lot and in my opinion it is a great dress for 15 Euros. Worth every cent.

What do you think? Have you heard about the cooperation and did you also get a piece?
