Presents, pugs and china!

Hello everyone,
I hope you all had a great St. Nicholas day last Monday and your boots were filled with delicious stuff.

To my surprise I got such a beautiful cup with 2 saucers which I saw at a antiques store round here some days before...such a cutie my boyfriend bought it secretly.
Also I got a beautiful poinsettia and some napkins with a pug on, which is awsome cause I looove pugs ;)

After all I ended up with lots of beautiful things including an orange/almond shower gel, the same as a handwash, a room scent from Yves Rocher which is also awsome....to be honest I nearly felt like christmas day ;)

So here are some photos and I hope you didn't get your little bums beaten up by St. Nicholas ;)





Byebye and cheers Manu

Knit knit knit...

Hello everyone, hope you all had a great weekend:)
I recovered from a cold this week and therefore I ended up knitting on my couch.
The result is 2 pairs of gloves, 2 headbands, 1 cap and 1 snood.
As now I'm totally crazy about knitting I have to show you the results from this weeks knitting madness.There is more to come...promised ;)
If somebody also wants to spend the evenings sitting on the couch surrounden by tons of wool, here I have a great site where knitting is explained to very well by picutes and videos.It was a recommendation of maureen, thanks again for that awsome link.Unfortunately it's in german but here's the link to Eliza's site called Nadelspiel.
Next project will be a beanie for my boyfriend:)

Well, in the end snow arrived round here and it's getting colder and colder.But I like cold weather and I really like snow.Finally I can wear my bag/muff  and my new selfmade knitted fashion-and that is sooooo warm, perfect!!
Wish you a relaxing and cosy first "Advent"-Sunday!
Byebye :)




Sorry about the photo quality I made them with my I phone as my camera acts kind of strange at the moment.

Secondhand Crazyness!!

Today once again it was all about visiting this very cool second hand store called Alexas in munich.
It's such a great shop with all kind of vintage things from every decade of time.
It was a funny and successful afternoon with Ann and Maureen thrifting through everything there.
Finally I found a beautiful bag which in the same time is a muff!!!That's sooo awsome and I'm so happy that I found it cause acutally it just looks like a leather bag.Alexa told me that it's some kind of a hunting bag.YAY!And now it's mine!
When I came home there was a little surprise in it.It's a rather antique looking pocket knife...someone might have forgotten it inside.Lucky meee!
I also got a silk cloth as a gift from alexa which I can use perfectly as a hairband!
Well enogh talking, here are the photos.I have to send a big "thank you with a kiss" to my lovely Ann.The photos in the store were taken by her and she allowed me to use them :)





still thinking about that black boots....maybe they will wait for me ;)


silky hairband



the hunting bag/muff with the little surprise in it






Christmas arrived in my home...finally

Yesterday time has come!!
Finally I did a little decoration at home and was busy with the christmas bakery the whole afternoon.
A little surprise for my boyfriend were the little squirrels.I found the little baking pans at ikea.It's a set with a few animals and it's so cute.He liked it a lot because he's a huuuuge squirrel fan ;)
Today we'll go for a little vintage shopping again...I'll keep you updated.I know I still owe you the photos of our last trip...but I have to admit I'm a little bit lazy at the moment-sorryyyy!
Wish you all a lovely Saturday!!

An evening at the parents home :)

Here we go, I hope you all had a nice and sunny weekend.
Mine was very very sunny and we did some really funny things in second hand markets and at the zoo...but these photos I'll show you next time cause my dearest friend Ann took all of them so I have to wait till she sends me the "package". But let me tell you, there are things to look forward to ;)

Tonight I'll have a little sleepover at my parents house and I have to show you that beautiful bottle.My mom brewed some kind of quince brandy that is soooo delicious!!!Yummy!
And please look at that bottle...I'm not sure if you can see something but it's trees and a house and deers and it's totally cute.
So I thought for tonight my "Good night wish" to all of you is that picture with the liqueur and that nice old bottle :)
Cheers everybody and have a wonderful night!

If you have the opportunity...go and grab one!It'll be worth it-promised!

Cœur de pirate - Comme des enfants (session RendezVousCreation n° 12)




My new favourite band is Cœur de pirate!A very cute singer from Canada.
The girl named Beatrice Martin is from Quebec and what I really liked about them is that they won the
"Bucky" Award  for "Best reason to learn french"on the CBC Radio.I really like the tought about that and
I have to admit that this great music really got me, even though I'm not soooo much in french music.So, seems like I have to learn french now ;)

Trip to the park

Yesterday we went to a park nerby munich. It's a kind of nature park where you can feed deers and piggys and all kind of wild animals.

Oh yes, and of course I had to put on my little leo cardigan to fit in the wild nature ;)


Awsome I can tell you.Here are some pictures where you can catch an impression.


That's my love and me!

Cheesecake and Sundays

Yummi yummi we looove cheesecake :)
It's from Rischart in munich.It's a bakery that was found 1883 here in munich and I can tell you, the cakes are delicious.
Highly recommendable when you're to lazy to do it yourself ;)


Afri-Cola commercials

Yesterday I saw a few afri cola commercials from 1968 due to a tv report about seduction on tv.
I was so stunned because the spots are kind of weired but cool, too.
The spots are mostly influenced by his interest in aerospace.He also did commercials for Pushkin wodka and Volkswagen.
The Director is Charles Wilp, he was a german advertising designer, artist, photographer and short movie editor.
So I HAVE to show you the commercials:

Yesterday in Munich

first of all I really have to show you my yesterday outfit with that gorgeous bag from my mum-thanks again I totally looove it :)
Dress: H&M, Scarf: Kaufrausch, Bag: Vintage


ok, then I have to show you some really funny and freaky stuff:

this is the actual window of Konen in munich and I really loved the piano and the little cat that says "Where is the mouse"?

and this is the cool toilet of the "Cafe am Hochhaus" in munich and a really weired window of a souvenier store at the Marienplatz.I liked it a lot and you can find new things everytime you look at it.


Wish you a great Weekend :)
