happy sunny Monday

... to celebrate a wonderful festival, I want you to show a colorful, casual denim style:

First day in Uni after a week and a lot of experiences inspired me on this sunny Monday.



FINALLY - my camera is working again and I can avoid Iphone-pictures... see below:

Hey folks, seems like my "nugging" about the weather did something good - it's eventually sunny and bright (though cold) outside. 

Still I have some problems with my camera, which is not really working lately... I wonder why.

Best weather for my most favorite BOSS Orange Sweater from 3 years ago. 

Paired with a skinny Levi's and my Barbara Bui Boots, I really feel like exploring the outside's cold instead of being in the seminars. 

For 8 degrees outside, I took my vintage United Color of Benetton Coat, and my huge Diane von Fürstenberg Shopper to get everything I need with me.

I was positively surprised how different the Bui Boots work with different cutter jeans. 


What do you think?

Hey everybody - what does your weather look like ?



Fall finally made his entrance and I kissed my light, summer clothes good bye for the upcoming time. I can't remember when I wore my jeans the last time...





But - lucky me - my Barbara Bui boots from last, last FW collection fit perfectly fine into this season color's code.... look at this color:

Will you be my valentine?

One of the most liked and celebrated days arrived in Japan. 

It is Valentine's Day. 

The day, you give your boyfriend/husband, your males colleagues, your male acquaintances and whoever male you may care for Chocolate. The best would be handmade, but bought chocolate is better than nothing.

In the end, your aim is to show, that you care for them.

So much talk of who receive chocolate... but what do the guys do in Japan on Valentine's day? Do they take out their spouse like it is custom in America and increasingly in Europe?

No. They don't. At least not yet.

But isn't it unfair that almost every female starts from January to look for the best receipts, ideas and even takes a hell of a time to prepare everything?

Well... in Japan every male shows his gratitude for the received chocolate on "White Day" in March. A day when it is the guy's turn to return the gratitude and to give back sweets to every female he cares for. Still, thanks to globalization it gets custom to take out one's spouse as well.

Outside of Japan, I would wear one of these outfits to spend Valentine's Day (since my boyfriend arrives here in 6 days earliest)

Which one do you like more?

Colorful Basics Set 2/6

Do you know those moments when you realize you fell for something?

When I was thinking about the next Colorful Basics Set outfit, I could not stop myself for the black Moto Jacket. I just knew, today it has to be something with her in it. 

Though I wished this Jacket would be real leather and not made of gum, I am still happy of the purchase.

Since the first Outfit surrounded on the Chiffon Skirt color and turquoise Shirt, I decided to lay the focus today on colorful accents - like in a complete blue "Schößchen" Shirt and a lime green bag - just see for yourself!
