Faux Shearling & Tan leather - Outfit of the Day

Oktober 28, 2016

Don't we all love the infamous shearling coat from Acne? Can we afford it? Most likely not. I've been looking for an Acne-style jacket for this winter, but most of them are extremely oversized - which is nice - but not when you are my height and size. I drown in them. So when I found this jacket a Zara I was really excited. Finally something for petite people, but still oversized. And I don't think I own a cream coloured jacket, because everything I buy is black, navy blue or grey.


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. 


And because I was feeling totally crazy that day I paired it with an even more risqué colour: tan. I always feel like a little school girl when I'm wearing backpacks, but I couldn't resist with this one. I only wish it was big enough for my Macbook. If anyone know where to find a fashionable backpack that fits a Macbook Pro, please tell me... I just can't find one. But after spending an entire day out and about in the city with this backpack, I have to admit that it's really practical and so much more comfortable than a bag, which always end up hurting my shoulders anyways.

Gucci Vibes - My New Favorite Bag

August 12, 2016

E n d l e s s   S e a r c h i n g...

I've been on the hunt for the perfect fall bag for a while now. When I was just about to give up I came across this gem in Zara. Zara's been infamous for copying many fashion designers for a while now and this bag (among the obvious inspiration they took from the Gucci Dionysus bag here) gave me serious Gucci Vibes (not complaining).  In my humble opinion, this bag is the ideal summer- leading into fall bag that fits everything I need. Yes, even my massive Ted Baker wallet.

Germany hasn't been the best when it comes to weather. Sweater weather has arrived and I love it! So I got out my Cashmere, suede and tights when heading to the city for some coffee. Living in Frankfurt has its ups and downs. But when I came across this incredible Brooklynesque café I just had to go there for a hot brew. I really recommend it to anyone who lives in Frankfurt or plans on visiting. I don't think a place could be more Instagram-worthy (let's be real) and the coffee was amazing. I love exploring new places and locations, even when it is in my home town. 



Do you ever take some time to explore your own city and find some hidden surprises? And what is your new favorite purchase? I'd love to know! 

Love áƒ¦ Christine
