This Weekend....

I hope everyone was able to enjoy a lovely weekend. As we were lucky enough to have the sun out both on Saturday and Sunday, I spend some time strolling through the city and going through some magazines. Now I am off to a busy week with yet to be full-filled projects for Uni...

Have a nice Monday!

- Collecting ideas for interior.....-

- ....and outfits -

- Even though the sun was out I had trouble fighting with cold until I pulled out this cashmere pullover with a fur collar -

Pearls and Pyjamas

When I was little, one of the things that brought me endless pleasure was going through my grandmother's closet. I was so amazed by all the different fabrics, colors, and shapes, especially (to this day ;)) by her heavenly shoe closet and her beautiful jewelry collection. I would spend hours with her, trying everything from kitten heels to necklaces. Sometimes I would still be in my little pyjamas but still swing on her pearl necklace. Even today we occasionally visit her closet just to dress up. My grandmother has always been one my greatest inspirations. She is such an intelligent, strong, and elegant woman. Even though she is my hardest critic at times, she is also my biggest supporter. That's why I am dedicating this post to her. Ich hab dich lieb Omi! 

- Blouse and Scarf: COS -

- A little sweet sin -

- A simple silk blouse paired with a pink ribbon for a touch of glamour -

- I just recently discovered Crabtree&Evelyn and I'm crazy about their pomegranate products -

- I hope everyone has a lovely weekend! -

Seashells

Today I have put together a few decorating ideas. I've always loved displaying even little items all around, but often couldn't decide how to present them in the most appealing way (without constantly having to buy new things....) until I discovered the treasure of old jars or simple glasses: Often, just a little polishing will do the trick. To add a bit of a "vacation feel" I like to spread out some of the seashells I have collected during the past few years.

Enjoy!

- A large jar full of seashells -

- This once held jam, now it serves as a nice place to remember the necklace I used to wear when playing dress up -

- A nice way to display simple hand soap -

- Two of my favorite everyday products -

Black and White

One of the things I have really learned to enjoy is seasonal decoration all around the house. As we are still freezing in cold temperatures all over the city, I at least made a few attempts to bring a somewhat idea of spring inside.

- A gift box I received for Christmas and now use as a storage space for very special items -

- One of my favorite family heirlooms -

- My current coffee table decoration with fresh tulips -

- A recent Zara purchase in hope of warmer days soon to arrive -
