Red lipstick: Mai's back!

Silk white blouse and red skirt - Vintage (flea market)

Bag - Urban Outfitters: Good bye baby!

I'm back home and online again!!! It was such a wonderful trip, I hope I will have the time to sort our pictures so they can be shared with you soon, but for now, a huge pile of work awaits me and needs to be done first! So here's a quick post with outfit photos that were shot shortly before we left, displaying red, red and more red! I said goodbye to the bag though, so this is the last time you'll be seeing it, sadly. However, stay tuned, because the replacement is just as good, maybe even slightly more elegant!

Thank you so much for reading! <3

Green Maxi and Leather

Faux-leather jacket - TK Maxx
Rose top - Mango

Skirt - Topshop

Shoes - COS

When spring comes, this is usually one of my favorite combinations. The weather in Hamburg is cold, so a jacket is always necessary at this time of the year. Fortunately, this faux-leather jacket I bought two years ago has the perfect length to be worn with high-waist skirts. Green has never been a color that I wear often, however, the perfect green shade of this maxi skirt always manages to draw my attention to itself. The lightness of the skirt contradicts to the heavier "rocky" leather, making a great interaction, that's why I just love it! If only I had suitable shoes for the combination...I'm still looking for the perfect leather ankle boots, although the end of the season is already in sight.

Favorite Brand: FCUK

Being a flea market junkie, I try to ignore brands and only concentrate on material components and pattern. Of course, if I had the choice between two identical shirts, I'd choose COS over H&M for example. However, there are still a couple of brands I can't take my eyes off, where I constantly seek for items and go "Awww" when I find something beautiful (mostly without buying because your wallet won't allow it, indirectly). French Connection sure is at the top of the list. I've not only been looking online, but also trying on their clothes, especially dresses, in actual shops and it's just... breathtaking. Most of the time, I felt like the brand was tailored exactly for me, fitting perfectly and making one feel special, somehow. 

Spending 70-120€ on a dress feels weird (I mean, you can easily get ten pretty second hand dresses with that amount of money...), so I'm way too parsimonious for this brand anyhow, but one can't stop falling in love with it, in spite of everything.

Klitzekleine Pause - auf Reisen!

Hallo Ihr Lieben!

Vielleicht habt Ihr es schon bemerkt, dass ich in letzter Zeit (leider) nicht mehr zurückkommentiert habe. Es liegt allerdings keinesfalls an Vergessenheit und jedes Kommentar wird auch noch beantwortet, allerdings befinde ich mich momentan in Süd-Ost Asien auf Reisen und bin daher nur selten vor dem Rechner. Hätte ich 'nen Androidhandy, wäre Instagram schon längst eröffnet worden für tolle Schnappschüsse, leider nur ist es nicht der Fall, denn für Nokia gibt es keine richtige App dafür. Hoffentlich ändert sich dies bald, wenn ich mich endlich überwinden kann, um mehrere hundert Euros für ein neues Handy auszugeben.

Bis Mitte Mai hat sich also die liebe Tram sich bereit erklärt, einige meiner vorbereiteten Posts im etwa wöchentlichen Abstand zu veröffentlichen, damit doch noch etwas Leben auf dem Blog ist. Danke Dir dafür! :)

Auf bald also! <3

Hey lovelies!

Maybe you've been wondering why I haven't been replying to comments lately. It's not because I forgot you, not at all, but I've been on a trip in South-East Asia and therefore rarely online. Each and every comment will be replied as soon as I'm back, I promise! Moreover, if I possessed an Android phone, an Instagram-account would have been established already for beautiful snapshots. Unfortunately, that's not the case...I just have a Nokia phone and can't persuade myself to go for a brand new phone, spending hundreds of euros just for one tiny object.

Until mid-May, charming Tram will be publishing some of my already prepared posts, so that there is still life on the blog. Thank you so much! :)

See you! <3

Outfit Review March 2014

March brought a lot of surprises with itself, I found myself combining things I've never tried out before. From new shapes like like large trousers to new colors, such as green, mint or camel... It's such fun! I used to be someone who only liked to wear black, a couple of years ago, could you imagine that? I've changed and started considering new color palettes, but my favorite one remains black-white-red-nude. I also was crazy about purple for a really long while, but have sorted almost all those pieces out of the closet, like half a year ago. Over a short period of time, taste can change quite quickly while you're discovering yourself, finding out what's best and most suitable for you. I personally rather enjoy these changes - especially when you look at pictures a couple of years back and ask yourself "How could this be me?" :D

Enough talk, let's get to the small flashback! :)
