This week I got the chance to sneak into my local Promod store and check out the new collection for spring/ summer 2017 which I think is absolutely fabulous ❤ In case you're unfamiliar, Promod is an originally French fashion brand and chain of women's fashion stores whose items are available in more than 45 countries. To be honest, Promod is one of my go to fashion brands. It's super feminine and I love how they use plain but intense colors for each piece that stands out due to its style. So whenever I go into a store I usually buy something 😳 Above you can see a top that's part of the new collection and I adore this color! The material is very soft and there's black lace on the top and on the bottom that gives it a very modern look despite the traditional Chinese-like flower pattern. It's also very flattering around the waist which is definitely a plus if you have a rather curvy figure like me.

Moreover, I got a very pretty golden necklace that was on sale. I love combining golden jewelry with a black top or shirt and my new skirt also comes in quite handy for this look. It's sparkling and golden and it's a midi skirt which means it's not usually my style, but I already wore it and I love it. This skirt looks amazing with black ankle boots. Since it's still rather cold outside I'd also combine it with a black coat or jacket so that you can stick to the black and gold colour pattern. Besides my new necklace I bought some earrings that are golden with red and orange highlights. These look best with a plain but colorful shirt and maybe some jeans. They are exactly my kind of earrings since I like to pep up my outfits with eye-catching jewelry.

Hello everyone! I'm super excited to finally publish my first blog post. For this occasion I thought I put together a little montage of what to expect from my blog and as you can see I intend to write about a variety of topics which is mainly due to my annoyingly many interests as well as my inability to choose among them. So we'll see where the journey goes. In short, this blog is going to be my little safe haven where I can talk about things I like, things I don't like and things I think are important. For starters, prepare yourself for a couple of travel posts, book reviews and some fun tags I've been looking forward to ever since I got the idea to start a blog myself.

To give you an idea of who's behind this blog, here are some random facts about me:

1) I was born and raised in Germany.

2) I currently live in Berlin.

3) I am about to finish my postgraduate degree in English philology and political science.

4) I'd love to work in the UK.

5) I decided I wanted to become an author when I was eight years old.

6) Harry Potter gave me the worst book hangover of my entire life.

7) J.R.R. Tolkien inspired me to study English literature.

8) As a teenager, I was obsessed with music and fashion.

9) Walt Disney was an enormous part of my childhood.

10) When I was sixteen, I dreamed of living in New York.
