End of Winter Walk

Last Sunday was the official day of the beginning of Spring here in Berlin, or at least the first day the weather generally agreed with the fact it’s supposed to be warmer by now. I went out of my...

Carbs for Your Soul- Georgian Style

I don’t know how much longer I have to wait for spring here in Berlin, but in the meantime I feel a need to fill my tummy (and hence my soul) with foods of the warming kind. This Georgian...

Ye Olde Style- a Friday Treat

As it so happens, in one of my numerous flea market hauls, I have spotted stacks of old photos being sold. At first I felt a little bad that I couldn’t keep all the boxes of treasure to myself, but...

Handmade in Berlin

So being a unemployed self-employed designer who is just starting up means I don’t really have much money to spend. That pretty much means that I’m trying to enjoy myself for free as much as...

Somehow, keeping my toes and fingers warm has overshadowed any presumable sense of fashion I’ve ever had and any need of dressing up. I know I have written a whole post about dressing in sub zero,...

Somedays – I like to do nothing (but fantasize about shoes)

I have not been lusting after anything of the sartorial nature recently. I guess I really am sick. I did, however, find a few compelling shoe choices on Asos. If any of you want to get me any of...

Washi Tape for the Soul

I am very into washi tape these days. I think it’s an awesome way to hang things on walls temporarily (great if you are renting a place), not to mention giving a personal touch to things. I ordered...

A very Bobby Tale

I felt like sharing cute photos of my very affectionate office cat, Bob. Bob is a big ginger bobtail. Earlier this month he had some health issues that required some professional help, but he is...

Pretty Friday- Blake Lively for Gucci

I love how Blake looks like she belongs on a trophy with that gold gown in the beginning of the commercial. I just think it’s a really good choice to have her as the face of this fragrance. Even...
