This cream colour is actually already enough colour for me - so I just paired it with black skinny jeans, black boots and a black turtleneck.  What I love about this jacket is that it is really structured, which makes every outfit look more pulled together and like you've spent some time dressing yourself in the morning when really you  just put up black clothes and a coat on top. Perfect for lazy people like me.

I'm trying to post here much more regularly because I really enjoy writing and sharing my thoughts and opinions. My sister recently moved to Vienna to study and me and my good friend James (@itsjamesadams on Instagram) are going to visit her in November. Vienna is basically my home away from home, since half of my family lives just outside of the city and I used to spend several weeks a year there. I've grown to love the city because it combines Eastern European vibes with chic and fancy architecture and, most importantly, an incredible coffee culture that I miss so much when I'm back in Germany. 

I started researching which places I have to see when I visit again, which cafés I haven't explored yet and which parts of the city are the best for taking beautiful photos, cause I'm not going to Vienna without my camera. My favorite place to plan for trips nowadays is definitely Instagram - it's real and shows what edited pictures by businesses don't show. Also: it's nice to look at because Instagram has some amazing photography to offer, even when shot with an iphone. When visiting Vienna I will check out the places I haven't seen on my list and update you here if I think the places are worth a visit. I will start with Cafés, but I have several posts coming up concerning Instaworthy spots and must-see places.

1 Café Leopold Hawelka 

This is a very cute and traditional café my dad used to take me to when I was a little girl. It's a must for anyone visiting Vienna who wants to experience what the city was like a couple of years ago - very artistic. It's also a good spot for taking pictures of your Viennese coffee and baked treat.

2 Café Sacher

Sachertorte is my all time favorite cake, hands down! My mum makes it all the time and I love it so much! I actually had cake and coffee at Café Sacher a couple of years ago (I was lucky and there were only 10 tourists in line waiting to get in) and it was fantastic. I have to say that I prefer my mum's Sacher because the one they served there was a little dry, but the location and atmosphere is quite unique. It's just something you have to try when you visit Vienna. Prepare yourself for Asian and American tourists though ;)

Hello beautiful people ღ

I've been shopping for beauty products like a mad woman the last couple of weeks or months. While I was really into full coverage, matte skin a while ago, it's all about the glowy, dewy finish for me now. I want that glossy, almost wet looking skin that Korean beauty models seem to have, but my skin is extremly dry (especially after spending two years in North Sweden) which makes it relatively hard to achieve that look. I've been trying and trying and I think I've found a compromise, that leaves me with dewy skin,doesn't emphasize texture and suits pale skin. 

3 Chanel translucent compact powder

I used to use compact powders that had colour to them and one lady at a Chanel counter told me that it's really uncessary because my skin is not super oily and I don't need that much coverage. And thank you Chanel lady, best advice ever. I just use this to set my concealer and powder throughout the day just for a touch up. This is nothing special but it does what it says - powder and soak up the oils during the day. 

4 Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow

7 Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise Cream Eyeshadow in 'Jean' 

I bought this at Selfridges in London just because I was so excited by the Charlotte Tilbury counter that I wanted to buy everything! And I don't regret it, this is a gorgeous cream eyeshadow that doesn't crease. The colour is a very natural, champagne gold with a beautiful sheen.  I usually slap this all over my lid, put a bronzy brown in my crease, some mascara and I'm done. Highly recommend.

8 Real Techniques Bold Metals Tapered Blush Brush and Zoeva #129 Luxe Fan brush

I've included my two new favorite brushes for highlighting. I use the Real Techniques brush when I want a very bold and metallic highlight because it carries a lot of pigment. Whenever I want a more natural highlight or just want to intensify my highlight, I use the Zoeva brush. Good quality, affordable and very soft.

9 Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick in 'Rebellious Rose'

I got this lipstick when I was looking for a new everyday lipstick about 6 months ago. I bought it, put it away, forgot about it and found it again 1 month ago and have been wearing it non-stop. It's matte, but very comfortable, the colour is pretty natural and very flattering. Estee Lauder is such a timeless and classy brand, I really enjoy their products.

10 Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté lipsticks

I'm collecting these lipsticks and I think they are the best ones on the market. What I like about them is that they feel like lipbalms, have very high pigmentation and leave a stain on your lips which means that the colour lasts for a very long time.  I wish they had more nude tones because most of their colours are pinks or reds. Still would recommend these to everyone out there. And I don't think I've ever seen more luxurious packaging from any other brand.

11 Clinique High Impact Mascara and MAC eye pencil

I got this mascara because it's suited for people with very dry and sensible eyes (I wear contacts). It's pretty nice, but I wish it would separate the lashes a little bit more. But I'm all for shorter lashes if it means that my eyes are not red and itchy after 20 minutes. The MAC eyeliner in an aubergine colour really compliments my green-blue eyes and helps them to stand out. 

Do you have any of these products in your everyday makeup bag? Is there anything that I should try out? Let me know! ღ

Ever seen a blogger wearing a piece of clothing that you just HAVE to have, then you click on it and to buy it you would have to sell your family, your organs and your dog? Been there, done that, even though I don't have a dog (sad). I'm the person that opens Topshop, ASOS, Missguided, Zara and Mango and is constantly on the new in section, browsing, searching, sorting 'from low to high' #noshame 

1 the infamous balenciaga ceinture ankle boots  - 895 €

Absolutely top of my wish-list, that's for sure. But I've never been someone to splurge on sunglasses. I just don't see the point. Shoes and bags - yes. They're usually made from leather, which is something that lasts forever and really makes you feel the quality difference. But sunglasses? They go out of fashion so quickly and I always end up breaking them. So this is definitely the category I have absolutely no problem with... I have sunglasses that cost me 5€. Sure, quality is pretty bad, but it's not worth it. I really like the 'So real' design and think it's pretty unique and trendy. I've found similar ones by Choies which look pretty darn close to the original ones if you ask me. 

I absolutely love Chloé's bags this year and the Faye is an absolute classic. It's extremely hard to find good dupes for handbags, because it's almost impossible to make them look as high-quality and beautiful as the designers. I found kind of a dupe for this one at Mango for 35,99€, which is pretty affordable. I've had a look at it in stores and the only thing I don't like is the quality of the PVC or faux leather (not sure what material it is). I think it looks a bit cheap because it's 'wrinkly'. Nevertheless, I think this is a timeless classic, especially in the nude colour.
