Summer dresses

Summer is coming, so of course you need some new clothes. I love dresses and I just can´t decide which one I will buy. Every year the same. These are some of the dresses I really like and I am probably going to buy them. This summer is all about bright colours. Most of my clothes are white, black or cream, so my wardrobe is not that colourful. So I have decided to look for some bright coloured clothes. You will see, that it was quite hard for me to find such a dress.

First is this lovely creme-pink coloured dress from H&M. I know it´s not a bright colour, but I absolutely love it. 



Next is this dark green coloured dress from Mango. It is so pretty. Again this is not a really bright colour but it´s not black or white so it counts. 



At last, a bright colour. This yellow dress is from Zara. It´s just gorgeous and perfect for the summer.


Last but not least is this white dress from vero moda. Again, I find it so hard to wear an orange or red dress. This lace dress however, is a lovely alternative.

Carrot and ginger smoothie

Normally I make smoothies with strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and so on. But today I thought I would do something a bit different and it turned out delicious. It takes about 10 min, so no time at all. All you need for this smoothie is: 

- 20g ginger ( if you don´t like your smoothie to be too spicy, just
              use 10g or even less)
- 3 bananas 
- 300ml carrot juice 
- 150g cream yogurt 
- 100g crushed ice 
- 3 table spoons lemon juice 


Mix the ingredients together and enjoy your smoothie.

Hey May!

It´s the first of May today, so I thought I would share some of my April favorites. We celebrate the first of May in Germany. Everybody goes to a bonfire in their village and you can roast your marshmallows or sausages. I went with my friends and we had a great time. 

A lipstick I wore really often was the Sensual Lips Rouge A Levres 93 from Boss. I love the colour and it fits perfectly to every outfit. 




Another lipstick I´ve been really obsessed with is this more spring and summer coloured one. It´s the NYX LSS643 Femme Lip Smacking Fun Colors.




Another thing I´ve been really loving is a mascara. It´s the 
Le Volume de Chanel mascara 10 noir. 
It gives your eyelashes a beautiful natural look and you don´t have to go over your lashes during the day again, because it lasts forever. 




The next thing is the hand cream from Soap&Glory. My hands are so soft since I´m using it. It is not sticky at all and smells so so good. 



I have also been using the lovely Lola perfume from Marc Jacobs. As I went in a shop to get a new perfume,  I fell in love just with the way it looks. The rose as a lid is just gorgeous and the scent is wonderful. I just had to get it. 


Last but not least is my awesome Longchamp bag. I´ve got the smallest one in braun. I´ve normally got a lot of things in my bag and was not sure if they will all fit in. But it is just amazing that they can.

Perfect start in the day

There is nothing better than having a dvd day with a delicious smoothie. I love the movies "the hunger games" and "catching fire" and I´ve also read all the books. I´m literally obsessed with them. 

All I´ve used for the smoothie was: 
- 150g different berries, like raspberries and strawberries and         
    blueberries 
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup
- 150g low fat cream yogurt 
- 1 orange

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone. I hope you've all had a wonderful day. My parents gave me and my brother some lovely little presents and of course a lot of chocolate. Today it´s about 20°C.Because of this nice weather we had a barbecue, which was delicious. After that, me and my dog went out for a walk in the woods. What should I say, the landscape is just beautiful.

Healthy pancakes

Finally holidays. That´s why I can sleep longer and have time to make a lovely breakfast. So I thought I would try to make some healthy, sugar free pancakes. 

For the dough you ´ll need: 

- 80g flour
- 100ml almond milk
- 20ml water
- agave syrup 
- 1 egg


Weight and measure all the ingredients and but them in a bowl. You can mix them either with a eggbeater or with normal mixer. The dough should´t be to solid or to liquid. If it is to liquid, mix some flour into it. And if it´s to solid mix a bit of water into it. 
The dough is enough for 6 medium sized pancakes. 


Now you can enjoy your pancakes. I´ve also used some fruits to make it more delicious and to keep it healthy. The smoothie next to it complets the perfect start in the day. 

I used : 

- one mango
- 2 frozen bananas
- a handful raspberries 
- all blended with almond milk

Easter

Easter is coming, so it´s time for some new decorations. First is a DIY Easter chicken. To create this, you´ll need two pom-poms, using the smaller cardboard circle to make the head and the larger circle for the body. After sewing the pom-poms together, cut out some feet and a beak from a piece of felt and stick then on the pom-poms. Use some eyes to complete the Easter chicken. 



I love coloring in some eggs for Easter. You can just be creative with them. 


This time I´ve been using some serviettes to make them look gorgeous. I went for a traditional chicken but you can use any kind of motive you want. I also did a egg with hearts. To make them a bit more colorful you can use some paint as well. 


I decided to put mine in a sweet little box for serviettes. I also put some grass in to decorate it. Last year I hung them on some branches, which looked really nice too. 



I´m really looking forward to Easter. In Germany the parents hide the chocolates and Easter bunnies and we have to find them. My neighbours always make a big thing out of it. The kids were searching for the whole day. If they could´t find them, all their friends and neighbors would help. I´m excited to see how this year will go.
