Summer came back for a few days and it seems to be gone for the rest of the week so all that is left is to think back to the warmer days.
I always loved to wear blouses year round and summer is no exception (although it is pretty hard these days cause my blouses don´t fit again cause I am still breastfeeding) but they have to be flowy and airy and loose fitted. The beautiful paisley patterned blouse I am wearing in this picture totally fits the bill.
White and blue are the perfect color companions for summer. The color combo has such a maritime flair and fits awesome into the current season.
I have linked some similar and cute blouses in the widget below. They would also look great with white pants and standing on a boat. Just some ideas.
I have been eyeing with this handbag for such a long time and for my 29th birthday I finally got it. It was never on sale during the months I had my eyes on it and even on Black Friday or after Christmas it hasn´t been discounted a single Euro so I pulled the trigger and bought it anyways.
Colors
There are four colors available plus a limited color edition which changes every year. I got the black and white option after going back and forth about ten times. This might be color combo which serves me the best.
Functionality
I would recommend bag organizer to keep the inside of your tote organized cause since it really is huge things will get lost very quickly inside. Amazon has great options. I have ordered this one. The outside of the bag is coated which keeps out any rain or liquids pooring down on it. The Gemini Link only has one little clasp to close it on top and as much as I would prefer a zipper I don´t mind at all here.
Size
The sizing of the bag is pretty big. It has one huge compartment and fits a ton of stuff. Meassurments are 45 cm x 29 cm x 14 cm which is comparible with the Luis Vuitton Neverfull GM (39 cm x 32 cm x 20 cm). I can throw in plenty of my day to day stuff and it still has some space to fit more things.
Overall it is a great tote with a reasonably price for a designer piece. If you are looking for a functional but also pretty and modern tote this will be for you.
As always thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
it´s been almost 5 weeeks since we are back from Lake Garda and I am finally coming around to write my last travel post in terms of this vacation. Read my Food Guide here and my Verona Travel Diary here.
We checked-in in the afternoon and only hang out by the pool until it was time for dinner. After we dressed up we went down to the Peschiera city centre and had dinner at one of our favorite restaurants.
But you don´t have to be by the pool every day, there are plenty of acitivites you can do around the lake. I have rounded-up some activities we already did or planning for the next time.
What to do:
– visit the surrounding cities (we already visited Garda, Lazise, Sirmione, Bardolino, Peschiera del Garda, Verona, Milan,
– go to the market (there are local markets every day, our favorite one is on Thursday in Barodlino but we also visited the market in Garda on Friday and Peschiera del Garda on Monday)
– play mini golf (we love to go play after dinner, also it isn´t as hot anymore)
– shop ´till you drop (Affi has a huge shopping centre with different Italian stores, also shopping in Verona is great and every little city of course has its own shops)
– bath in the Lake (there are places which don´t belong to the hotels everywhere)
– go wine tasting (I always wanted to do
– visit the Gardaland theme park (I have been years ago and it has evolved so much, there are a ton of new rides so whether you are a rollercoaster junkie or you are visiting with your toddler there is lots of fun for everyone)
– go on a ferry ride to another city
– go to a dinner show (there are two dinner shows available – a Rock´n Roll dinner show and a Medieval Times dinner show)
– rent a boat (only possible if you have a boat license, the lake is huge and the cities can also all be visited by boat so if you are fed up of riding your car give it a try)
– go parasailing (I have done this years ago and for 50 Euro I would say it is totally affordable and you have the greatest view of the lake you will ever get, awesome experience)
This are some of my top recommendations if you want to do a little more than lying by the pool.
If you want to know more what to do feel free to mail me.

Fall is finally coming closer, you can literally feel it. The mornings are already cool and foggy and the heat waves seem to be gone. I know some of you love Summer and hold onto it as long as possible but I am personally very happy that we are almost into September. I just ordered my first batch of pumpkin candles this morning. Go pumpkin spice.
Since this look is such a easy and effortless t-shirt / denim combo I spiced it up with a handful of gorgeous accessories like
– the pearl studded mules – a huge trend since last year
– the flowery statement earrings – statement earrings seem to go nowhere and I have just ordered a bunch of them at a amazon – stay tuned for a round-up
– silk headband – hair accessories are also a huge trend this year – I have a blog post coming up next week about the most stylish piece and how to wear them
A belt would also be another super nice accessories but I wasn´t sure which one to wear so I left it.
Do you like to style up your casual pieces or really wear them in a casual way? I would love to know.
