Beginning of Spring

If you listen to the astronomical calendar it’s beginning of spring today. When you look  outside you will quickly be disabused. In order to get a bit of the spring-feeling why not go  for a bright nail-polish colour? I still really love the one’s from Chanel even when they are from  the last season.  These three beauties from the Chanel spring 2012 collection are still gorgeous and capture  the mood of this season perfectly. One for each month (April, May & June) and you  are ready to go.

Winter won’t go

♫ Nat King Cole & Natalie Cole – Unforgettable ♫  Coat – Boss Orange (bought via Zalando) Bag – Longchamp Cap – H&M Hard to believe that on Wednesday it’s the beginning of spring when you see all the snow  outside and the wind is blowing against the windows. No, not the best way to start spring,  the season of pastel shades, flowers and beautiful scents.   Better you cuddle yourself into a warm coat like Jana did the other day. Wear some lined  shoes and a cozy cap in order to keep warm.  We know, it’s never easy to look good in winter when you also want to look  warm but here is a idea how you could to it. You could also put on some lipstick in  a bright colour. It will give you and the people around a bit of spring-feeling and your  lips will be protected against the cold.

Culture in Berlin: Hamburger Bahnhof

Yesterday we headed towards the Hamburger Bahnhof, a museum for contemporary art, displaying pieces by artists such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Joseph Beuys and many others. We really enjoyed some of the works while others were rather questionable. At some point it’s hard to like modern art even when you try to get a grip of the artists mind. It really depends on the way how it captures once minds. The outfit Jana is wearing is a day to night combination. For the day just throw a fluffy cardigan over a super skinny dress, add some bling with a glittery necklace and chose some mid heeled booties. For night leave the cardigan in the car and go for some killer heels. Put on some metallic eyeshadow and your ready for a night out. Dress – H&M Cardigan – Zalando Collection Necklace – NoaNoa

Sweet Treat in Berlin: Princess Cheesecake

Do you know this feeling when you walk past a little café, shop or restaurant every once in a  while and think “I really have to go there” ?! We do felt this way about this little charming  café in Berlin Mitte. Princess Cheesecake has a fine selection of cakes, mainly cheesecakes of  course, a great range of tea and lovely coffee. The right place to be if you are willing to pay a bit  more for something that is really good. We tried the New York cheesecake and the Apple Cake,  both a true sensation. We really love the classical music which plays along on their main webpage. Princess Cheesecake Tucholskystraße 37  10117 Berlin Mitte on the map

Shades of Blue

We really were more than lucky with the weather in Venice. The sun was shining bright and  in those three days we stayed there not a single cloud was to be seen. Here you see this “blueness”  of the city. Rich, pure and above all beautiful. Somehow I just had to thought of Yves Klein  and his International Klein Blue. Of course that is different in it’s colour but the richness just causes  the same thoughts and feelings in me.

Fondamenta delle Zattere

♫ Dean Martin – Thats Amore ♫  Blazer – Sandro Shirt – Zara Jeans – Zara Shoes – Converse  I just really love Italy. There are so many beautiful cities, mesmerizing landscapes, a lot of  history, perfect gelato and delicious food. I have been to Venice two times already but just for  a day, never stayed there for a few days actually. It was just the perfect time of the year to visit  the lagoon city. Not to many tourists and perfect weather. Luckily we had no Aqua Alta!  Watch out, the blog will be an Italian oasis the next few days.

Four Days & Three Nights

After those stressing exam days I was more than happy to escape the old familiar everyday-life and head to Weimar. These pictures were taken from last Saturday till yesterday and show what I have been doing in those four days with my lovely boyfriend. We enjoyed snowy Weimar, a beautiful Swan Lake performance by the Staatsballett Berlin and relaxed in a modern hotel.

Snow White

White shirt – Zara Good morning everyone! It’s the day after the Oscars (well, in Europe at least).  Did you watch the Oscars? We really loved the show and Amanda Seyfried in a  beautiful Alexander McQueen gown. Which did you like the most? We hope you had a lovely weekend and wish you now a good start into the new week.
