Room sweet room

Welcome home people,

I hope your week started well and that you’re enjoying the great weather. I wanna show you my dream bedroom and how I decorated my own room to make it more comfy.

These are perfect bedrooms that I found on Pinterest. To die for! Really!!

This is my room. I tried to bring this very romantic atmosphere using baby pinks and flowery patterns.

The bed sheets are from Target. Oh my gosh I love Target for decoration items and furniture. I have to tell you a story. I bought the blanket when I was in Kansas last year and had to send it back to Europe making sure it doesn’t get lost or something. Epic win!

Just want to show you guys one more thing: my new babies!! I love them <3 I found them at H&M in Bern. So happy.

Stay tuned ;-) and enjoy the weekend!

"Waiter? -Yes M'am!"

Ok , I can officially say that I found the best fancy drink recipe ever. EVERRRR. I call it the Fabulous in Pink but feel free to find your own name. Your turn to rock this baby!

1. Pour some ice in a Martini glass (see picture).
2. Put some Martini over the ice (not that much).
3. Cover the mixture with pink prosecco. (Prosecco=sparklin' wine)
4. Add some lemon drops.

Fabulous in Pink, takes the best out of Martini and prosecco. :-)

THE drink:

If you're like me and don't want to feel like an alcoholic during the week, you can still try this soft version (no alcool at all). It's called Fabulous in Baby Pink - how cute.

1. Pour some ice in a jar/Martini glass (see picture). 
2. Put some elderflower lemonade over the ice (fill the glass completely). 
3. Add a piece of lemon and an olive to garnish.

The soft drink version (absolutely amazing):

Thirsty Thursday's everyday!

Geeky life

Hey guys,

Today I want to share with you my favorite websites and blogs. I’m obsessed with all of these! Seriously! To find inspiration, to pick up an outfit, to do my job, to have fun, etc.

My favorite blog: Confessions of a 20 Something. Oh my! I love Pink Lou Lou, her tips, tutorials, and pictures. Just visit her blog and you’ll know what I’m talking about!

THE fashion and style database: Pinterest. I can’t get enough of Pinterest and all its great pictures. Helps me find outfits, decoration and cooking ideas <3

The best fashion websites on the World Wide Web: Asos, Forever21 and WetSeal. These are actually the places where you can buy the stuff you found on Pinterest. Yay!

Paper Things: Zü (printable cards, calendars, patterns for F.R.E.E.) and Erin Condren (customizable agenda – not for free).

The last website I wanna show you is Shabbyblogs.com. It’s a blog where you can actually download backgrounds, headers, footers and signatures for your blog for F.R.E.E. Thank  you Jey ;-)

Enjoy and don't hesitate to share your favorite blogs and websites in the comment section.

Pretty Little Bow Tattoo

Hey people,

Today, a little update on how things went at the tattoo studio. Yep, I got a small and pretty bow tattoo. After years of reflection, I finally took the plunge. It would have been impossible without the Bestie and the BF, holding my hand :-) Thanks guys!

Doing the tattoo was actually REALLY painful (and that's nothing) but Jan from 32 Tattoo was (thank God) really tactful. That's his website btw: jb-marks.com/
Doing the outline was Ok, as well as the shades. I suffured when it came to color in the tattoo. It felt like someone was ripping my skin up, seriously. After one hour and a half, the thing was finally over. 

And that's the result:  :-) Yippppiiiii

I am ready for the summer :-))

Weekend Far Far Away

Hey there,

Sorry, I was not able to publish anything last week; I was getting ready for my trip to Luxembourg. Sounds crazy but it's the best place I’ve been lately. I had a blast with my friends and family, spending romantic time with my boyfriend, fun moments with my niece and gastronomic interludes with my mom. Oh, short update for those of you who don’t know it: I’m from Luxembourg. I went back to the country with my mommy and my boyfriend, Simon, to meet some good old friends and my half brother’s family.

 

Jey and Boyfriend.

 

 

I bought this new Vanessa Bruno bag. Was perfect for the trip!

The fam’. Cute 3 year old Lena is not on the pic cause she hates to pose.

 

There she is <3

 

Luxembourg is famous for its restaurants. I had the chance to visit and discover two fabulous places: L’Eau à la Bouche (French gastronomy) and Palais de Chine (Chinese food). Obsessed with lobster!

On Saturday evening, we discovered THE place to partttayyyyyyy, Clausen. It’s an industrial street full of cool bars and clubs. The place remind me of the Power and Light district in Kansas City. Yay!

Updates concerning my new bow T.A.T.T.O.O. coming soon...

A 'bit of happiness

Hello you guys!

Today I’m gonna talk about happiness. I thought about this subject because of that newsletter the agency I work for published last month. We’re all seeking happiness. For some of us it’s easy, while for others it’s almost impossible! I would call myself a pessimistic. However I try to brighten my days thanks to little things in order to enjoy a bit more the-least-enjoyable moments, as I like to call them. Waking up in the morning. Leaving your beloved. Working. Going somewhere you don’t like. Studying. Long-list!

It’s really easy to cheer you up.
1.    Think about what makes you happy/what would make you happy! Coffee? A little treat? Cute clothes? Being organized? Behaving like someone you like?
2.    Do it! Do what you like! Create a little ritual for everyday!
3.    Be happy!

Here’s a list of what make me happy. I wouldn’t give it up for anything in the world :-)

Hugs! Have a great day!

Note it!

Hi :-)

Today, an article about how to organize yourself (at least some parts of your life). I really enjoy being organized. You know, being on time, knowing where stuffs are, etc. People often ask me how I do it, so here’s what works for me.

I usually write down everything on Post-It. They’re cute, sticky, colorful AND useful as hell.  You can even use them to express your creativity as a post it artist. 

 

 

 

My Moleskine agenda is my everything. I use it to write down my appointments, do brainstorming, find inspiration and collect things I like.

There are blogs that provide printable sheets with different section to help you structure your day and tasks. I use one per day! 

Some cool ideas I found on Pinterest.

OK, so you’re gonna tell me that, that’s not a whole lot of things to do. Actually it is. All these little things help me relax and enjoy my day. The fact to write down everything gives me a chance to assess my day and (sometimes) be proud of myself. And between you and me, it’s a good excuse to buy cool stationery items. Like like like!

Keep calm, be happy and write everything down ;-)
