Marvelous Nails

Love this new nail polish! I used OPI 'Lucerne: Tainly Look Marvelous' and 'Start to Finish Base & Top Coat' in the picture. What is your current nail polish favorite?

Saturday night I helped one of my friends, Amelie, to get ready for a glamorous evening event. I love to comb through her closet since she has the most fashionable and great fashion in there. We decided that a reddish dress with flower print and a black blazer (both Massimo Dutti) combined with ruby colored tights and black Hogan ankle boots would be most appropriate for the event. An LBD would have been too elegant and chic for the occasion. And because we are girls and we start complaining after 10 minutes of walking in high heels, there was no arguing about taking along a second pair of shoes. The black biker boots by Zara matched the outfit perfectly. So, here are some pictures of the dressed to kill beauty :)

(Sorry for the bad photo quality! I'm working on getting a new camera soon! Promise!)

Kardashian Fashion Inspiration

Here comes a little inspiration for you guys on a lazy sunday!
I admire all of the Kardashian sisters for their great sense of fashion. My favorite is Kourtney since she mostly wears black and white. Her style is more sophisticated and she always looks amazing. Although Khloe and Kim wear similar fashion they are more likely to wear a little more trendy and colorful clothing.
Today I created a Khloe inspired look for you but I promise that there will definitely be an outfit inspired by Kourtney K.'s style very soon!

I chose an amazing H&M leather jacket, a J Brand leopard jeans and also a little more unusual and exceptional boots to go along with the outfit. Enjoy!

And the new hair color is...

...brown with a little red tint. Sorry for the late update but I've been really stressed out lately. I wanted the color to come out a little more red, so I'm not sure if I may change the result a tiny little bit.

Make-up: I used P2 pure color lipstick (090 red square), Diorskin Forever Fluid Foundation, Mac Studio Fix Powder, Mac Powder Blush (Sheer Tone Blush Pinch Me) and Astor Big&Beautiful False Lash Look Volume Mascara.

I also purchased some new nail polishes this week. Since I'm glitter obsessed I just couldn't say no to circus confetti and Galactic black (both by P2). I also purchased West End Wonderland by Butter London (a gold glitter one I've already fallen in love with although it's pretty hard to get the glitter off your nails).

Plaid Shirts

I love wearing plaid shirts on a casual day with friends or to university. They look so effortless dressy but still suited to daily use. Here is a more dressed up but young looking outfit version with a J. Crew plaid blouse. How do you like this set?

Also I'm getting a hair makeover today! I'm gonna post some pictures later today or early tomorrow. Which color could it be? Make a guess! :)

Stella McCartney Falabella

My biggest shopping weakness are definitely handbags. I love the diversity of colors, shapes and styles. I especially like to invest in bags that can be worn with different styles and believe that there's no better purchase than a timesless bag. My latest love-piece is the Stella McCartney Falabella in black or studded eco (silver). It comes in different seizes and shapes and of course celebrities have already fallen in love with the it-piece! Fashion lovers like the Kardashians, Victoria Beckham, Demi Lovato, Rihanna and many more have been spotted with the trendy Stella McCartney bag. The price range lies in between $865 and $2495, so it's quiete an investment. But a girl can dream - right? :)

God Save LA!

I find myself browsing the Kitson online shop (www.shopkitson.com) a lot these days. I love most of the unique fashion pieces their store offers and since I had the amazing opportunity to go to the Kitson Store in Los Angeles, I wish we had Kitson in Europe. But the celebrity shopping hot spot didn't forget about the fashion addicts outside the US and offers a wide range of clothing, accessories and merchandise products online! I definitely make sure to check out their online shop at least once a week because it is so hot! My favorite brands there? Well I really like their merchandise products (they sell little bags with baby-sized beauty products, a mommy 'first aid' set or clothes, purses and coconut lipsmacker with the Kitson emblem), the amazing jewelry and I'm definitely a big fan of the brands L.A. Cabana, Torn, Wildfox and of course House of Harlow. But there's so much more to explore. So if you haven't done it by now, you should damn sure go and check out their online shop ASAP!
Another great brand I recently found on the website is God Save LA. They make absolutely gorgeous dresses and perfect glam up clothing.

Which online shops are your favorites? -xoxo
