Simplicity

Today was the first day of the year where I had to leave the house with an umbrella because it was raining. It's time to get out the cardigans and enjoy their warm an cuddly texture. I love this particular cardigan that I'm wearing here because it was made of 55% silk and 45% cotton so it feels amazing to the touch.

I really think that although the outfit is really simple it still looks fashionable and great.

Long lost and found

One day many years ago an amazing perfume found its way to my grandmother. It was a gift from an old friend. However it was just the vial, almost empty with no tags on it whatsoever, so I never actually knew who this perfume is by. Anyways, today I went to the drug store to buy a new things and wondered into the perfume section and then I saw this:

This perfume is incredible. It has a soft and floral scent and since it's eau de perfum and I am very confident that the scent will stay on the whole day. I really cannot wait to use it.

Days becoming nights

As the evenings are getting colder and the days shorter it's nice to cuddle up on the couch with a few scented candles with a blanket over your feet, so that you're nice and warm (wollig warm as we call it). Watching a nice movie or listening to music, enjoying poetry and having a glass of wine.

My inspiration really always is my little Moleskin because once I open it I actually always have something to say or write.

So here another beautiful poem that I absolutely love and adore in the author's original handwriting:

It is called "Was es ist" or "What it is" for those of you who don't know German.

Lips as red as blood

So I decided that an outfit post is long over due and promptly to close that gasping gap. I am enjoying the last more or less warm days here and one can feel that autumn or rather winter is coming. So obviously one has to use the last chances he gets to wear maxi skirts with shirts, tops and flip flops before getting out all these chunky knits, scarves and boots.

I decided that it is absolutely necessary to wear that new skirt before I have to come up with ways of how to pair it with warmer clothing. 

How do you like wearing maxi skirts? Please share.

The Shoe Appreciation Society

So today I have found the coolest thing while I was browsing. Obviously for me as a shoe addict it's absolute fuel and has to be shared!

Check this out:

Isn't this the coolest thing ever? I really want to get it as a print for my room because this epic and it will fit nicely into my new room, once it's done.

Tel Aviv impressions

Today I wanted to share a few impressions that I have of Tel Aviv and actually a few other places and cities with you. I find that Israel is just such an amazing and beautiful place that it's a shame to keep it all to myself. I hope you'll enjoy it.

 

 

And there was shopping time again...

So over the past few months I obviously have some additions to my wardrobe to share. Some little ones and some bigger ones. For some of them I have to thank my mother who came to visit and contributed towards the extension of my wardrobe.

First off is this gorgeous green Mango dress. Since I'm rather short I am wearing it with a thin brown belt and it just looks stunning.

The runner(s) up are the new shoes, that I acquired:
1. Aldo
I absolutely love open toe boots, or as we call them booties and I really wanted to have a pair with lace. I saw these boots on sale in Aldo and bought them immediately. Ironically I then saw them in the new collection and for the full price. I lucky me I guess!

2. Urban Shoes
Then there are these strappy sandals, which I really like and I couldn't wait to buy a pretty pair of blue shoes, which is also comfortable.

3. Zara

We have these absolutely amazing biker boots, which I cannot wait to wear with pretty much everything I've got, but unfortunately, although that might be in the eye of the beholder, it's not boot-time in Israel just yet. I do admit that I had enough of the heat and wouldn't mind a littel bit of coolness, but then again if I were in Europe I'd also be complaining...

And then we also have the brown ballerina slippers and I really am a sucker for those. I strongly believe that one can never have too many pair because they pretty much almost go with anything.

Then we have the "all about eyes" cream by Clinique, which I have been waiting for and dreaming about. I do have to say that I absolutely love it, as I do with all of Clinique's products. It's not sticky and doesn't burn in your eyes and I was most afraid about that before I started using eye cream. It has an incredibly light texture and the skin feels silky afterwards.

Further we have an H&M reptile print dress, which is great for the weather here because it can just be worn on the street without blazers, tights or cardigans.

Hello everyone,

Clearly it's been months since my last post ad for that I am sorry.

Many changes have taken place in my life. As you might know I moved to a different country and obviously a new job, new flat and new furniture needed to be found.

And now that I am through it's the perfect timing to be posting again with the Fashion Weeks going on and all!

So please hold on to your seats because there will be posts following!
