A small update of the clothes I bought lately.My home looked so comfortable tonight so I used the chance to take some pictures.

Oh jeez,it's so cold and there's snow as high as my knees at some places and..there's nothing really to tell.Just wonder how you've been?

Goodnight!

Well,it's been long...again.

BUT I have excuses: I was accepted at the university I was applying to and I found a flat,just for my own.It's all so perfect,the flat is small but very nice and I got oh so many things like a blender,a 1-person-fryer,a yellow telephone that turned beige-white again after I cleaned it with earswabs for hours.

Now,as I said everything's happening right NOW and so my sister moved out last weekend.Our cousin,my sister and I are meeting each day since it's the last days we're living that close so the night she moved in we slept over there and we drank a little and the photos turned out...not so well.

It's so strange to move out but I'm more excited than feared.Just my mother is well feared about it.

I hope I can post my photos regularly after I moved and after I got a laptop for my lessons begin at 10 am if I did everything correctly.

How was your moving-out-of-your-childhood-home?

meh-he-h

I've nothing much to tell.

I wore this for a meeting with a friend of mine to look at an apartment she might move into.The two people that already live in there were real nice but so old,like...25.This decision is not easily made.Soon I'll have to decide for an apartment too.And oh..I don't get along easy with all kinds of human.I'm often quiet and I'm not looking for partyyyyy-ish people.Mehh,whatever.

I hope you've had a good day?


P.S.I want THAT skirt.A bit longer,though.It's so keeewl!

Weeelllllllllll, today was huuge! I woke up,Nanny,coffee,getting my photos(REAL photos from a 7-bucks-camera),back home,another coffee,loving the photos.

Here are some of them and new clothy clothes!

See the Pokémon?

Today's outfit with one of my favorite works by Félix Vallotton in the background.
I wanted to post about things that make me happy.But on the search for photos I somehow stopped.I've had the idea because every morning I watch The Nanny with 2 cups of coffee and that is just THE morning ritual.Maybe it is just that those things vary.
Right now it's Basia Bulat and the memories that go along with her music.
So what is it that makes you happy,are there any rituals?

She's soo gorgeous and I always try to handle the little kiddos from the family I'm working at like she does.The have some good laughs at least.But no..it's really like I'm good friends with them or like I'm their sister so I love The Nanny even more!




And because I can't pick just one good scene(because many details make it a good series where I feel so at home) I'm posting the theme song:

Well,it's been almost a month since my last post.I somehow didn't feel like posting or couldn't because I was in Holland.Hmm,it's pretty nice there,very decent and simple.The days have been spent laying at the beach,swimming and walking,and in the afternoon we went to the restaurant at the beach for some drinks and something to eat.The air there is just a dream,it feels so healthy to be there,even if the hair is full of sand,the skin covered with salt and you walk barefoot all day.
So now this is what I put together for today:The belt is so kewwl!

Here is a cape I found that was worn by a singer and..I really would like to have such a thing,the colours are not the prettiest,though.Maybe I'll keep up knitting again:
Oh,and this is a blouse that I've been given from/by my grandmother.First,when I saw it I thought that the pattern was quite..80'ies maybe and yes..could be nice.But then I wore it and was like.O......kay.... Does anyone of you have any idea what to do with it? (ehh..great composition and all,obviously NOT self-taken photo and excuse the mess...it's not my room of course)

AND I am looking for girls wearing knee socks and boots/whatever shoes with skirts.Has any of you seen good ideas somewhere?

God,no pretty colours in this post.I'm going to add my favorite song by CocoRosie though youtube doesn't offer the best version.

In the best version someone says the chorus words,he says them like he does in the ending:

Ohh,it's been so long.

I've been busy with...you know,things.

But yesterday our stepfather sent us shopping because we needed new dresses for Holland(err..my wardrobe is as good as empty..) and I came back with 2 skirts,2 dresses,a pullover and other pieces that needn't be mentioned here.

Also,my mama woke up from the artificial coma and I'm SO relieved and again I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and kind,kind words and prayers.She's a little hard to handle these days but..she's awake at least.


The pullover will be for nights at the beach in Holland,umm yes.

The tree will keep me company at the beach.

The yellow dress is the Inception-dress

and the skirt is..I don't know why I bought it.I bought another one as well,light blue,simple,longer.

I hope this blog won't be as dead as it's been the last days after Holland,I've had something like a blog depression.

Have a good night&good dreams.

Today was a dark day.

Since days I feel sick and today has been the worst.For the first time since quite a lot of days I could see my mother.She is in intensive care.She is in an artificial coma since days.There are wires all around her and she doesn't breath on her own.It was the worst and most gruesome thing I've ever seen to see her lying there so helplessly,asleep,having a wire that gets into her body and to see how mechanically her breast went up and down.Her lips were purple and swollen.How helpless she looked.It was unbearable to me.

I wonder what one thinks or dreams of if he/she's in a coma.I wonder if she will remember us holding her hand or what we said to her.I was so happy to feel her body being warm.I didn't expect that as she doesn't breath on her own.But yes,her heart beats on his own of course,so she should be warm.

The intensive care station was like hell.There are only 12 beds and in every room there were people between heaven and earth.I've had that picture on my mind.The souls of everyone there in a white,cloudy space and they just have to chose which door to take.

Oh,diseases and everything that has to do with it are so mean!I could never handle it.

I wonder if any of you have experiences with artificial comas and how the patients react when they wake up?

This post is not like 'fishing for pity' but I had to write it down somewhere and maybe hear what experiences you've had.

May all of you and your families be healthy and jolly.

Goodnight.

Inní mér syngur eðli

Due to rather not-so-positive happenings I haven't had time for posting or taking photos.
Well,today I had.I even had time for editing it just to cover up the untidy room.
A song that accompanied me through this time was Inní Mer Syngur Vitleysingur by Sigur Rós.It means 'Within me sings a lunatic'.The title is nothing to do with how I feel these days,just by the way.
Again,I am so surprised how much strength and dear words I get from christian people.Mind-blowing.
First the song,really, listen to it,it's...so dear(if a song can be dear): (Icelandic is such an interesting language,I've learnt a little about it the last days)



And now what I'm wearing today:

What a gorgeous day.

Incidentally,I was alone at home for most of the day and I decided to make time just for my own entertainment and to do NO-thing today.

There's a song by Emmy The Great in which she sings about her boredom.I've wanted to do what she sings about for a long time now:

-create a language

-eat neighbor's cat

-make a macaroni necklace

-play with toolbox

-set off a firework

-talk to and fall in love with a pencil.

I created a language.It sounded japanese-scandinavian and it was much fun to sing songs with non-existent words.

There was no cat within eyeshot.Too bad.
Here's my macaroni necklace which I cooked after and ate.

I looked in the toolbox but there were no entertaining tools in there but I saw a kite and tried setting it in the garden.

There was no firework in the basement but I lit candles and the house still smells like...very good !

I took a pencil that smiled at me but he was in a hurry, no time to fall in love.

Because that was not enough fun, I also wore 8 jackets at a time(gawd,they were heavy!) and I was sweating soo much and laughing so hard because I could barely move and then I made some push-ups on the floor and rolled up and down the carpet.Dear,that was fun-

Next thing I did was laying down on the meadow under the lawn sprinkler.

Then I made taekwondo with a broom stick.


This was followed by making vanilla ice cream with chocolate and coloured crumbles,cream,chocolate sauce,cherries and waffles.

Then my stomach was so full that I had to move again and I played the Don't-Touch-The-Floor-Game,this is walking and jumping from the table to the sofa to the shelf on the kitchenette,without touching the floor of course !

Well,after all this I was so worn out that I only had some power left to paint a little with chalk.(A few nights ago my best friend and I walked through the nocturnal streets and on a schoolyard we painted chalk Pokémon for the kiddos.It sounds childish but it is gaareat fun!)

Of course I also did reasonable things like photography.

Not very reasonable was not taking a picture of what I's wearing today.Don't worry,this is still a fashion blog and I won't bore you with those things for forever.

Baareakfast.Camembert and clocks.

N°2

I roasted the chicken,added the tomato farrago and the cheese.

And now I proudly present the protagonist: the Tortilla wraps!

I filled them with the chicken and rolled them up.

And this is the miserable result: Could there be a more delicious looking tortilla? YES.

This is what I was wearing while cooking. I just wear this long dress in the house and in the garden because it shows too much but is SO comfy to wear when it's about 36°C.

Despite the non-Happy-Enchiladas-End(I couldn't eat more than one half because while cooking I ate SO much cheese) this was a pretty evening.

After the meal I got out and went to the fields where the sun was setting and I took photos both with my good,ol' digital camera as well as with my new,old Canon I got on the flea market for 7 bucks.Then I had a coffee to reduce the ugly feeling of having eaten too much.And now I am sitting here listening to Coco Rosie.

The summertime is a much better time than I'd expected. Every morning I go out to walk on the morning dew all over the grass with bare feet. It's a little cold but it touches every sense.

N° 1

I just made my first Enchiladas,I have never tried them before,but when I saw an Enchilada Kit at the supermarket I just had to have it.
I've made them like so:
Chicken cutting,cheese grating,putting tomato sauce,spice mix and water in a bowl.

Hejjj,
I am back from London(well,since Monday actually but because of a bad cough I got from the ventilator I felt like writing and photographing today for the first time since then).
While writing the words 'bad' and 'cough' I remembered this song and I'd like to share it with you:

Well,where to start.

London is big,ohh so big and fast and loud.Personally I think,to patronize my oh so sacrosanct rule of slowness,that when you're going through the streets of London(or any other big city,or...any city at all) you should listen to calm music and walk slow and take photos and explore.You ought to go against the fastness.I have been there with a friend and she was running,running all the time and I had no time to think.That's why I barely remember details and there were no special,magical moments.I wish I'd been on my own.There was no time to read,to listen to music(I even created a new playlist with songs that were supposed to remind me of London later) or to take photos except for one night when we sat down at the Piccadilly Circus.

I only found two dresses,a bikini top and two tights.(My friend followed me everywhere,e-ve-ry-where when we were in a shop or at one of the 6 markets we visited.And let me tell you I can't stand it.When I looked at a dress in the 'Absolut Vintage' shop we visited she laughed but I actually liked it but then I didn't dare to pick it because I couldn't stand her looks.This happened several times.)

Thus,it's all been a bit disappointing and then I've had this bad cough and I thought it were my tonsils and I was crying all day yesterday,partly because of the pain but mostly for no specific reason.It was such a gruesome day-

But I am so happy to be back.

I also found two belts and a polaroid camera(now I found out that the films for those cameras are exorbitant).

I stole my mama's trench coat and wore one of the new dresses for flea market.You can see the Polaroid as well.And I'm wearing my beloved 'LOVE THE PLANET' bag from Dublin which me and my best friend bought there.

This is the new belt from today and one of the dresses from London.

The other London dress.I avoided the typical floral prints as every single body was wearing them in London.I also have to say I barely saw people wearing inspiring things.Most of them wore high heels which mostly doesn't look very modest or their faces were not friendly or other things.

Well,now I'm off buying film for my new camera and then I'm forced to see the German Worldcup match tonight.Ohhh how thrilling...not.
How good to be back and see all the pretty outfits you wore and things you've experienced.

Adieu !

I just wanted to say goodbye for the next 6 days.

I will take a lot of photos and buy mountains of new clothes,I am so excited about what I'll come back with!

Hope you all will be having a jolly good week and I'm excited to see what you've been wearing in the meantime.

I'm off to London now with a plane.(Ok,that sounds ridiculous after my post about saving the environment and therefore trying to reduce....CO2-emissions! I....I....I can't help it,it was a present.....err....)

Goodbye and enjoy the nature !

I just saw a sort of documentation on my favorite and one of the only two channels I'm watching 'ARTE' . Its name was 'I buy/(I'm buying?),therefore I am'. It was about world-wide disparities and how much we consume and that if everybody on this world would be consuming as much as an north American we would need a five times bigger planet and how much plastic and trash there is and that noone knows where to put it and some of the commentators said that in their opinion the apocalypse has already begun.I thought about thrifting and that it might be very good for the environment.No little,poor children in Bangladesh are sewing my H&M-clothes and no CO2-emissions because there's no plane that brings the clothes to Bangladesh and back to Germany(or wherever else). I know-if we don't buy our clothes there the children and families don't even get this small amount of money they're getting because they have this poor work but we can't keep on doing this.We can not go on repressing poor countries.Other ways need to be found.I don't see the problem.There is an overabundance of food and many other things in the industrial countries while people from the less and least developed countries are starving.I will try my best and avoid buying new clothes from now on.So you need to excuse me buying this H&m dress and sort of bra today...before I saw this film !! Some things you don't get at the flea market but I'll be going again tomorrow.I found two bras without straps for just 5 bucks and I was always looking for this kind of a bra and they even fit! Couldn't believe my luck.
A goodnight to everyone !

Just a short question for my abiding commentators:
Do you have to enter a word before you can post a comment on my blog?
End of question.

So,prom is over.

It was not a night of extraordinary happenings but it was fine.We danced until they turned the light on,telling us indirectly but authoritative that the party is over and we have to GO.

The best thing about having finished school is by far that in 3 days me and my cousin will be going to.......LONDON! Man,London is such an impressive city.It is fast,though. But there are huuge vintage markets and little shops and lovely hullabaloo at every corner and remarkable,exotic food.

My dear best friend and I. We love trees.

The girly-girls.Ah,I'm pretty unconfident with my hair and all that now that I see us by comparison.

And now I'm off changing € into pounds !
