in full blossom.

heels; pants - Zara // blouse; hat - H&M

Finally i get to post these pictures which were taken a month ago already. Crazy how time flies. Juni is real close. So is uni application and my move to Berlin. I guess i will have a hard time getting rid of the clothes i don't wear anymore before i fly. The ones i will bring with me probably wont even fill my big suitcase. Need to do a clearance sale or something like that before i move. Throwing them away would be a shame. I spent quite a lot of money on all those babies. I only wear basics these days. Not even accessories or anything fancy. Like this shirt from H&M. Its so multifunctional ! You can tuck it in at the front, or tuck both ends in, or just tuck the back in (would look weird though i think), to create whatever suits your style. You can wear it with pants or without, as its pretty long. I think my friend even bought it on sale last week. Love it !

Summer is approaching, is everyone having a good time shopping for their summer wardrobe ? I think ill stick with basics throughout the summer and probably some fancy sandals and heels. x J

dark spring, literally

Lace top - Zara, Jacket - Celine, Pants - H&M, Shoes - Acne, Bag and Bracelet - Hermes

A head to toe look in black to welcome spring. We all know that Birkin is the most-hunted bag in the world, not because of its astounding value, or the whole vision of Jane behind (yes i know, there are people who own the bag and doesnt even know who Jane is), it is the top top quality of craftmanship that won my heart over.
Seriously stressful times happening at uni right about now as exam season just kicked in! Exahausting almost, i am slowly going insane with all this unfinished papers and countless undone tasks for the next coming week. It's incredible that my exchanged year in Paris is approaching its finishing line while spring hasn't even officialy landed ....With love, N <3

the missing link

pants - Topshop // top - COS // bag - & other stories // shoes - Floralpunk

On my second day in Berlin my boyfriend lead me to this beautiful bridge and it is one of my favourite spots in Berlin already ! I can see myself chilling on that bridge on summer days with a beer to my one side and a good mate to talk to, on the other.

Berlin street stroll.

My very very cheap chinese Wang copies haha.

earrings from & other stories

So kids, iam in Berlin as you can tell. Everywhere is nice as long as the sun is shining, isnt it ? I have to admit that my hometown Munich is slightly a bit nicer though. Hometown pride i guess. But iam slowly getting used to Berlin and its not alltoo bad, either. Have to i guess. Ill be moving here if one of the unis accept me. I will apply for sinology in June. I hope i will be able to endure the student life after more than 2 yearsout of school. Enjoy the sun, cheers x

& other stories // Kurfürstendamm, Berlin

I received the news about the launch of this new brand under the H&M group just a couple days ago. I started researching instantly and loved what i saw. The concept of '& other stories' satisfies many points which H&M lacks. Better quality and more diverse collections with love to detail at affordable prices.

There are currently seven stores worldwide, which are all located in Europe. But for the ones who dont want to miss out there is also an online shop, just click on www.stories.cọm.
Lucky me has a boyfriend in Berlin, and as i wanted to visit him anyway, i got the chance to check out the store at Kurfürstendamm. And its gorgeous. I remember how there was a three-storey H&M shop before, and in a very short period they changed the whole interior completely, and it looks beautiful. Its one of those shops now which you like to visit just for looking. It has some boutique/gallery/industrial touch to it.

As for the clothes, if i was a flat chested skinny girl iprobably would have found more things i would have wanted to buỵ. But the clothes are nice nontheless. So are the shoes with their more sophisticated designs. And the beauty section is heaven ! I wanted to buy so many things because the packaging is so cute yet minimalistic. Totally my thing. We couldnt take more pictures of the beauty section because there was a girl who forbid us to take pictures. And i really dont get why shopkeepers would forbid that. But whatever. Anyway, if you are in London, Paris, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Milan or Berlin, make sure you check out '& other stories' ! 

A softer Approach

i am utterly excited that spring has finally arrived in Europe. This winter has been way too long and miserable although i gotta admit that i do prefer winter dressing much better over summer. I only have another 2 weeks left of class in Paris. So scary how time flies. These photos were taken couple weeks ago at my favorite park! Stay in tuned! With love, N! 

back from China

loafers - Zara // leather vest; blouse - Floralpunk // pants - Topshop 

Hey kids, iam back from China and it was awesome. Again i have experienced a completely new facade of Asia and i dont love it less. While the shopping didnt quite take my breathe away, the cultural and culinary aspects did all the more. One of the few items that i purchased were these glasses. Even in China i was already certain that id probably never them in Germany but i had to have them. What do you think ? They were like 1€. Bargain, come on.

Where are you Mr.Spring?

Coat - Celine, Shirt + Silk pants - Zara, Bag - Chanel, Ring - Givenchy

I am absolutely fanatically dramatically spasmatically obsessed with this printed silk trouser from Zara. There is something quite atrocious with this oriental print. It's not a very graceful print and the entire piece may even be a little too much for a chilly spring (winter) day, but voila when in doubt , just match it with your can't-live-without coat and your best 'boy'. These days i just wish to have a brief encounter with the sun again.My low energy level combine with this weird bizarre bipolar weather we're still experiencing result in me staying indoor most of the time to read, yes READ. If anyone would bring me summer and my boyfriend now, i would be forever grateful ! With love, N!
