Cupcakes and Cashmere ♥

Hello ladies, 

Today's blog post is about one of the books I've read during the last month. I got it by coincidence as it was recommended by amazon when I ordered Lauren Conrad's Style and Beauty book. 
I'm talking about "Cupcakes and Cashmere" by Emily Schuman. To be honest, I wasn't expecting a lot I just thought I would give it a try. 
Now you may already guess that I literally loved it! 
It's not a huge book at all but you can find all of the details you need to be inspired by that lovely woman. 

Her way of writing is very nice and I just loved reading it. It's split in the four seasons and I read one chapter every day. She gives you tips in Beauty, Fashion, Food and Lifestyle, which covers all of the subjects I'm interested in. The funny thing is that I hadn't known her blog before I started reading the book so I made this fascinating discovery as well and I love her cupcakes recipe. She's so creative and I love creative people so much. They give me a lot and that's one of the reasons why I started writing this blog. I wanted to give people something to get inspired or just something beautiful to make them smile. Creativity is something wonderful and I love to play with is. Not only with fashion and beauty but also with food. 
If you really want to read an inspiring book, which makes you happy at the same time, then I really recommend you buying this one. Give it a look and I know you'll love it. 
A little detail which I also loved was the fact of showing beauty products for each season. High-end and drugstore. These details made me adoring it that much. 

I wish you a wonderful day or night wherever you are! 

Much love! xoxo

Living inspiration ♥

Hello everyone :), 

Happy Monday to you even if you usually don't wish someone a happy monday as it's the beginning of the week but I do it anyway ;). 
Today I want to share with you a quite personal story but also some beautiful things. 
I don't know if you've already made this experience or if you're still waiting for it to come. 
8 months ago I met this guy by coincidence and I think it was destiny that we met. It was his and his brother's birthday party and I fell in love with him right away. I don't know what it was (probably his amazing blue eyes ;)) but I knew that it was true. Some months before that day I had made some very sad and bad experiences and I don't wish those kind of experiences to anyone. I thought that I would never ever be able to trust a guy and be able to give him all I have. My heart, my thoughts, my joy and my worries. It took myself some time to open myself but this guy I met at his birthday party did everything you can imagine that made it possible for myself to do everything I was afraid of. I gave him everything and still today he deserves it as much as the first day I dared doing it. This guy is in my eyes the Love of my life and in some eyes I must sound stupid but I don't care about that! I know what i feel and I know what he has done for me until today and I think that everything we go through, whether good times or bad times, we will stick together and love each other every day! 
Last fall we've decided to move together because the both of us are going to start university this year. 
We've already found an appartement and we're super happy and super excited to start this adventure together. I don't doubt that step a single minute and I'm sure we'll be fine. 
Some of you may ask yourself why I'm writing these things for a blogpost in which I wanted to show you my "living" inspiration for our appartement. Well usually there's a story behind everything and this one, I wanted to share with you. 

I hope you like my favorite pictures of today and I wish you a nice day or night wherever you are!

Much love xoxo

PS: I love you honey and happy anniversary! ♥ 

My favorite christmas present ♥

Good morning (here in Europe :)),

As a following post I wanted to share with you my favorite christmas present. I'm not a huge fan of sharing ALL my presents with you guys. It's not a matter of privacy I just think it would look like "hey look at me I'm so much better than you because my presents were more expensive or bigger or whatever". I hope you understand that but I decided that I'm going to show you at least one. And here it is: My favorite christmas present of 2013 is......

...The Clarisonic "mia2"- Facial Sonic Cleansing

To be honest, I already knew that I would get it before christmas because my mum had bought her clarisonic 3 months before and she was so happy about it, that I just had to get this for christmas ;).
My skin is really, really fragile and I have to pay a lot of attention on what I put on my skin. So the clarisonic works perfectly for myself. I also got the brush for fragile and dry skin with my clarisonic because the usual one includes a brush "only" for sensitiv skin.
Well I've been using it for 3 weeks now and my skin is feeling so well. I don't have that feeling of uneven skin anymore. My face is so soft and looks fresh and healthy.
I know that this cleansing method has been known around the world for about 5 years or even longer now, but if you don't have it yet, please give it a look and think about it, because it is truly amazing!!

You can really feel and see the difference and even my boyfriend uses it from time to time ;).

It has 2 speeds, 2 year warranty and the package includes a travel case which is really practical. If you want to use it on your body too, then there is a bigger one availabe in the stores. A little "plus" for all of you ladies, you can get it in different colours. I've spotted it in pink 2 weeks ago and it looked great.

I hope you liked this post and I wish you a really nice day or night wherever you are :)!

Much love xoxo
