Shirt dress by Haburi: + or - ?

I stumbled upon this dress on Anna's Blog and found out that it is available over Haburi (brand: Herrlicher) for 64,90 Euro. In my opinion an interesting idea, but the price is definitely too high for my budget - so I keep telling myself that it looks like a giant undershirt, lol^^. What do you think - hot or not? Love,

Best Deals at Forever21

After a one week net absence due to serious laptop issues, I am finally back to blogging. For today? The best deals at Forever 21 (hurry up, some of it already in sale!). I love...

...this nerdy tshirt!! The shoes are my most favourite pick^^. (How adorable is that baby chicken?)

And how sweet is that?? Cupcake key caps =). The pink lamé sport bag is a pick for my special friend KMC (you rock, honey!).


A cascade of lace dress and earrings from 1001 nights... what do we need more?!

Always in search of the latest stylish pieces! ;)

Top 6 Picks at Topshop this month

Best 3 Rings at Topshop: Butterfly is ♥♥♥.

Rings are my latest obsession...bought around ten here in Israel?! My three favourites currently at UK Topshop are the blue butterfly, the crown and the golden bug. What else catched my eye is below. What do you think of those black booties? Wanna wear them in autumn soon =) (or so I wish, haha). I agree that the bird cage earrings are rather excentric, but also terribly adorable!! X3

Hippie Summer dress - glamorous^^.

Look at those babies!! Waah! [Black Booties]

Bird cage earrings - crazy, but cool.

Just had three pieces of chocolate cake and now my stomach hurts... should have known better :[ Love,

Step Up, City Girl!

Summer, summer, summer!! :D (source)

Not that I have everything here in Israel that I need....I bought tons of jewellery and dresses =) (already picture the airport staff asking like "You want to open a boutique or something??!"). The only problem is getting proper shoes... (not that I currently can walk in anything else than flip flops, lol). And as much as I try to avoid the online shop of our favourite Swedish fashion house, those stunning summer shoes are on my wishlist =)). How do you like them?

No.1 Lace Peeptoe Booties (my favourites^^)♥♥♥. 40 Euro.

No.2 Soft Pink High Heels. 40 Euro.

No. 3 Cut-out Booties in Marshmallow Pink. 30 Euro.

No.4 Flower Print High Heels. 30 Euro.

Here is my mission: Writing to H&M and complaining about the fact that their size 41 is generally a little too small for average 41. I am not supposed to cut off one of my toes like the sisters from Cinderella, am I??! Lots of sun and love to you,

Autumn Favourites at H&M 2010

Classic Grey Coat, 50 Euro.

Summer is still at its best, but H&M already provides hungry fashionistas with new inspiration for the autumn season. My favourites this year? An outfit that combines caramel, ferrari red and black together. The red blouse and the long cardigan are my most favoured picks^^. And I started to consider buying the black hat... not that I specifically like hats (aside from the small French berets I own), but I feel in the mood for some fashion experiments ... *Cough, cough*, I already apologize to my friends in advance, lol^^. Here's what I like best so far:

No.1 - Red Blouse with ruffles, 20 Euro. ♥♥♥


No.2 - Elegant Chiffon Dress, 30 Euro.

No.3 - Classical Shopper, 2o Euro.


No.4 - Pearl Hair Jewellery, 5 Euro.


No. 5 - Long Caramel Cardigan, 20 Euro. ♥♥♥

No.6 - Black Hat, 8 Euro.

Something you fancy?! Can't wait to check out the rest in the new autumn catalogue that is (hopefully) waiting for me at home in Germany. After 4 months of constant summer ... rain, fog and a cloudy sky seem nothing more than a distant memory, like something from a dream that you have nearly already forgotten about...More soon ♥. Love,

Shopping Blues #2

Night blue cocktail dress with black dotted lace.

We just suffered a small electrical power outage and I have been busy all morning to fix it... or at least trying to find the source of the problem. Now it is working again (without any apparent reason from outside...) - the question is just how long... So far to my weekend...it really messed up with my schedule for today!Anyways, it is getting hotter and hotter here every day (we do not have a thermometer at work, presumably because nobody really wants to know the exact degree of torment *lol*). I am still looking for a wedding dress and for other summer dresses. I found a very stylish store called Renoir(?), where they sell all the cute dresses in this post. Let's see what we got:

~ By the way, they don't have mirrors in their (indeed very narrow) changing cabins, so I did my best to catch the design either way. What about the poor fashion bloggers in Israel?! How are we supposed to work under these conditions?? :) ~

Here we have a dream in turquoise with lace and in a very soft fabric - my personal No.1!♥ The jewellery I already bought here would match perfectly.

WOW! I mean, come on, this dress outstands everything that H&M produced this year for the Garden Collection. Beautiful pattern and delicate volants! We want... ♥♥♥

And last but not least I was still looking for a dress with blue roses (like the one here). The reason why I did not initially let them all wrap up and run out of the shop like the happiest girl in the world? Each of them costs between 80 to 100 Euros... and I feel so guilty when I think of all the dresses in my closet (one a rainy Sunday in the future I should take the time to count them... or better not). Sooo, which means that I have some very good options now, but I am still not content. The wedding is next month, so I'll be busy finding something appropriate!
For now, I'll go to check the electricity again...!
Wonderful Saturday to you!♥
Love,

Out of Reach

Hi =). A few days before my departure to Israel a new H&M order arrived and I had only minutes to try the clothes on, before they got savely tucked away in boxes. Now they are at home in Germany and I cannot wear them before August. Isn't that tormenting?! Let's see what I got...

I blogged about this skirt before here and was so lucky to find it in the Sale finally! The initial inspiration was Nathalies first outfit on Lookbook! =) It is a true princess skirt^^.

This whool dress was so gorgeous in the catalogue... trying it on was very disappointing! The fabric is very thin and cheap and it did not meet my exspectations at all. I sent it back instantly!

Same for this black romper. I was convinced that it would be a must-keep, but it totally wasn't. It did not fit me at all and the fabric felt like plastik on my skin... so sad =( Now I am still searching for a better one. Got also back to H&M!

This sweet cardigan (I got a discount of 25% on it, yay) is from the Modern Classics Collection! I bought it for work^^!! I love it. I'll just wear a black top underneath that. Can't wait until it's within my reach again!

Here's the cardigan in the catalogue. The Garden Collection or the Sonia Rykiel could not win my heart, but I love nearly all the pieces from the Modern Classics pages!! More, please! You can read my advice on business outfits here (Fashion Rules for the Successful Business Woman). Oops, I just realized that the cardigan is actually in that post also...XD.

I bought these navy blue sailor shoes for Israel and I am happy that they are really useful here. At the beginning they were a little too small and one of my feet bleeded a little, but now they are worn in and it's fine. So, at least I have something of the new arrivals with me!^^

See you all soon again, XoXo (Kisses and Hugs)

Ready for a New Look?

Paris, J'adore!

This Online Shop was fairly a surprise. New Look is one of the big British fashion companys that bloggers are hyping (now including me...). There are a few pieces which caught my eye and I'll share them with you to provide some inspiration! (Another desperate attempt to cure my shopping blues here, lol). I like the amount of clothes available in every category at New Look... Asos for example bothers me, because it takes you hours or more than an evening to see half of their products. Please enjoy and let me now your favourites!

This butterfly watch is perfect!

I want this roses backpack!!! Desperately!!

Another pair of dream shoes - sheer eye candy!

~

Now some fun: I am going to scream when I see the first fashion blogger wearing this:

Is this for real?!

Now we are going to the supermarket to buy some stuff for dinner. I am tired and hungry! I wish everyone a great Sunday (work starts again tomorrow here).
Love,

9 Items to Instant-Wow up your Wardrobe

Summer Party.
Evening Bliss.
Shoe Heaven.

The secret to a stunning closet are some wow-accessoires and key pieces. Some apricot heels with bugs? Or maybe a flowerprint jumpsuit or a thin lace cardigan? Here are Lilly's best picks from our favourite British stores and also shoe picks from Görtz. The jumpsuit (Collage 1) is actually the second flowerprint piece I like this year. And yeah, this is probably number three:


This dress looks really fab, I am drawn to it. Saw it in one of the H&M Spring Magazine editorials, but don't feel ready to pay 40 bucks for it...maybe I am a lucky girl and find this in Sale in a few months? Blue rose prints are rarely found though. Oh lovelies, I overslept today (if that is possible on a Sunday morning, haha) and now I am ready (am I?) to meet the chaos at home. So many things to organise and to sort out...couldn't I just have magic powers like my favourite witch Sabrina (Sorry, Hermione!)? I'll just dream of that blue dress...:D

Extraordinary Jewellery at Nerdbirds


I have a definite weakness for special jewellery pieces! So here are my favourite choices from the Online Shop Nerdbirds. Every fashionista can find unique picks to suit her individual style. My top 3:
  • Bird Cage necklace
  • Strawberry necklace
  • Snow Flake earrings
I am still fighting against my cold with like a thousand cups of tea (this gives a real experience about a crazy "tea party" - you know what I am talking about...). Tomorrow will be great: finally I'll hand in my long-prepared assignment and meet with KV to go shopping...erhm, I mean to drink coffee (seriously, my wallet is stitched up momentarily and not going to be opened for any (fashion-related) reason). So, tea anyone?
Cordially, your


PS: Please note that this is an unpaid post. I am sharing this because I adore their jewellery.
