Day 4

Christmas walk ❄

Today I came home from school, and just had my last final for the semester. Because I didn't get much fresh air the last weeks, I decided to pull out the leashes and go out on a nice long walk with my doggies. 
I wrapped up in a huge scarf, some boots and a big sweater and I was out and about!! 
We have this perfect little path next to fields, a river and loads of nature. I took my camera with me and took some pictures.

Monthly faves

LIFESTYLE🍃

Um...can you believe it's November? I feel like I just put up all my autmnal decor yesterday, and now it's almost time to replace them with christmas decor. At htis time of the month, it's time for my monthly favorites.

In beauty, I bought an eyebrow pencil recently. It has a brush at the end, and I was really exited when I bought it because it is exactly my shade. I feel like when I put it on, I look older. Not in a bad way tho.
I discovered kinda like a new look for me with it. I just leave out the mascara and instead I do my eyebrows. And that's it. I feel like eyebrows just really frame your face, and you don't really need the other stuff.


I like to experiment, and put myself up to a challenge, like going vegan, which I did last year for a month or so. Now I'm on a vegetarian challenge but I might swerve into vegan after a while. I'm trying out different sorts of food that replace the normals, I guess. I really got into the Soya and Coconut milk thing, and that is my favorite. I bought a Coconut/Chocolate Milk and it tastes delicious. Since yesterday I'm trying a new one that is Soya/Vanilla and it's tasty but not my favorite because it's too sweet for my taste.

My favorite interior are picture frames. It may sound weird but I bought them and they're just those glasses as cover and no actual frame. Idrew some pictures last week and I wanted to put them up on my wall, and because they have a kinda specific style to them I thought that a huge frame would just distract.
I bought them in a store called TIGER and they were only 1 euro!!

Music. I love music and I feel like so much new music came out this month, it's really hard to decide. I've already shared my Halloween playlist and that is basically all I've listened to this month. But my favorites from that playlist are Twin Size Matress by The Front Bottoms. I saw the quote "With tears in my eyes I begged you to stay, you said hey man I love you but now fucking way" on tumblr a lot, I loved it and found out it's that song. It's just a bonus that it's now one of my favorites. iTunes
Another facorite is the new album by 5 Seconds of Summer. It's different to the first one and you can actually hear how they've matured and how you can amazing songs when you exprerience and see the world. SGFG

weekly FAVORITES

Hey guys!
Today: Tell me your favorite "fall candle scent" in the comments :)
So like every Sunday I'm going to show you my favorites today. It's not the regular favorites post where I show you random stuff I enjoyed this month. I will show you my favorites in five specific categories.

- favorite thing to watch
- favorite person
- favorite thing I did
- favorite piece of clothing
- favorite tumblr post
Then I'm going to rate each thing with hearts from one to five! ♥


1. Favorite thing to watch:
My favorite thing to watch is still Pretty Little Liars. In my last post I was in season 3...now it's season 5.
I have to say that it's not my favorite show, I've ever watched but I kinda like the tension that comes with it even though it stretches into infinity ans you still don't really know anything. No spoilers!!

♥♥

2. Favorite person: (On social media)
Is (again) a tumblr blog. I spoke about Geordie Gray in one of my previous posts before and only found out that she also has a tumblr blog. It's @mtvgeneration and it to me is really inspiring. I love that she answers so many asks and is really really honest.

♥♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did: 
This week I climbed up a mountain here in Germany, called Brocken. It's 1141 m high and we started at Torfhaus and walked up the route called "Goetheweg". It weirdly took us 2 hours to get up there but over three to walk back. But it was loads of fun and it's just kinda this "f*ck we did it feeling when you reach the top".

♥♥♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:
I haven't bought any new clothes in quite a long time, but I'm about to head to Cologne this week to go shopping!
Until then I'm going to be wearing my good old fave. It's my Hard Rock Cafe shirt that I got in New York. It's just really classy, and goes with literally everything. (I'm pretty sure everyone knows how it looks like.)

♥♥

5. Favorite tumblr post:

So I'm on a break at the moment which means I have a lot of time for things like tumblr. That makes it really hard to decide on a favorite post in an entire week. I guess that's what you'd call first world problems..or probably just mine.

♥♥♥♥♥

I chose this because I was gone for a year and all my friends I
saw again this year told me how much I've changed.
(not necessarily in a bad way, I hope.) 

♥♥

I'm sorry this Sunday was so short, I was in a hurry but promise next week will be longer!!

1. Favorite thing to watch:

Staring with favorite thing to watch this week was Pretty little liars. We bought the third season this week (I know we're very far behind) and are watching it since then. Friday night we watched the first of six DVDs. We ordered some pizza, made the room pitch black, sat on the sofa and watched it. I love how it kinda started like the first season and how you still know kinda nothing. And I gotta say, that Hannah is rocking the new hairstyle! 

♥♥♥

2. Favorite person: (I follow on social media)

I watched a YouTube video and I loooved the clothes she was wearing, so I looked up where she got them from and it's this British (I believe) store. Lazy Oaf

I instantly fell in love with the first shirt I saw and I wish I had enough money to buy the entire store. I think now it's time for me to go to London again. Just for the single reason to spent my money in Lazy oaf.

Oh! and I also follow them on instagram now so that's why they're my favorite "person" I follow on social media this week.

Anyone wanna buy me this shirt??

 
♥♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did:
My favorite thing I did was getting 14 points (an A) in my first math exam of the year. It's probably a weird fave because I'm not a school fan at all I try to talk about as little as possible especially during break, but I was really happy and wanted to document it^^.

♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:

My favorite piece of clothing is a kinda red/autumn-color sweater. I already have it in brown and it's my favorite sweater so I bought it again. Yes, I'm one of those people. It's from H&M and was 19,99 euro.

5. Favorite tumblr post:

I rebloggt this pic yesterday and it's my favorite because of the single reason that I am so exited for my concert, which is in 167 days 5 hours and 14 minutes. (I have a countdown on my phone!!!)

HALLO(ween)!! 🎃

I know I missed the last week because exam time started and I had to study. But I'm gonna catch up with my September monthly favorites now and get back into schedule. It's finally October, which is my favorite month of the year. And those Sundays are gonna be my favorite blog posts to write because of all my favorites. I looked back at my other monthly favorite and I said I can't believe it's almost September. Now I sit here in mid-October and I can't believe there are advent calendars in the store, and it's almost time for my October favorites again.

9/27:

So as usual I'm gonna start with beauty. As you may have noticed I'm not even close to being an expert in that field but I recently got into bronzer. In fall there is not much sun, at least where I live and I really missed my little tein. So I bought one and I actually really like it. I put some under my cheekbones and on my forehead.
I also got a new hand cream given to me, which is by CD. Now that your hands are dry and need extra care it leaves your hands smooth and is really affordable. And the company earns a plus because they are cruelty free, and I try as much as I can to cancel this cruelty in my live.

In fashion I rediscovered my ring collection. I store them in a little bowl I got from Hawaii and I just found the box. I'm pretty sure I have about 30 and most of them are really simple (and from H&M). But I feel like they are a great accessory that just goes with everything and you can dress them kinda up and down.
I also found a black turtleneck t-shirt. It is -again- from savers in the US but I thought it would be perfect for fall. It is not thick enough to be a jumper and the sleeves are too short, but definitely has jumper qualities.

Now, right behind fashion, food is one of the best things in October. Everything is warm and tastes like fall. It just makes the whole atmosphere a lot more cozy when you have a hot chocolate (or pumpkin spiced latte), some cookies and candles in front of you, while you sit on your couch in 200 blankets and watch a crappy movie. I didn't have time to make a autumnal cupcake recipe. But I already found one which is probably going to be another Wednesday post.

Since I'm back in Germany all my shopping trips also led me to NANU NANA, to fill up on my decor and interior. And that is where I bought 3 colorful bowls. They where only 3 Euros and they have different designs on them. One is turquoise with an orange edge. The other is light blue and orange and has an orange edge as well. The third bowl has dark blue diamond shapes and an orange edge. I also bought two little tea cups which are black and white. One with circles the other with little dashed lines. I bought three little plates from the same black and white range which I use as plats for my cacti.

The last part is music. I put up a post next Wednesday where I included my Halloween playlist where you can see what I listen to this month. So today I'm going to talk about my favorite music in September. I also have a playlist for that. I make a spotify playlist for every month and I name it after events that happened. That's how cool I am. I have one that is called back to black because someone ( I don't even remember) dyed their hair black that day, Oh and that was in June '15. In July I started a new playlist and the first song in it is Fourth of July by FOB. The Playlist is called Zummer 2015 and has about 70 songs in it. I stopped editing it on October 9th. And it's probably my favorite playlist I have. I love to compare it to my Summer playlist 2014 and than I'm always very proud to see how I went from charts to punk pop.

Nailpolish

LIFESTYLE

Hi!
So since school started I've started to use more products again. I have a few nail polishes and I'm gonna show you my favorites. Most of them are just drug store products because I think they work just as good.
The first nail polish is also the one I bought last. It's just white but I really like it 'cause you can wear it with anything. Mine is a drugstore product and after just 2 applies it's covered. (Essence 33 wild white ways)

The next nail polish I wore was a coral color in the colors pink/orange. I like it a lot because when the sun shines on it, it looks more pink and when it gets darker it turns into an orange-y color. The brush is this perfect shape that just fits the nail and you can apply it very easily. The brand is p2 and it's the edition volume gloss. The color is called 060 happy bride. 

In the second week I tried out one of those quick n' go nail polishes. Mine is from Astor and is supposed to dry in 45 seconds. I didn't count the seconds but it was extremely fast and like that it is way more fun to make your nails. It also says it has a "1 sec flash brush", I have to say it didn't took me 1 second to apply but it was okay because it dried so fast. It looks almost black but if you look closer you can see it's actually a really dark purple. I applied it twice because I thought the purple was too light but it definitely covered. I'm kinda sad they only have numbers not names but I think the new collection does have names. (Astor)

1. Favorite thing to watch:
This week I didn't really watch anything. Besides my school books, I watched some YouTube videos but they weren't the best. But what I did watch was the sunset this week, which was amazing! I took sooo may pictures and they look different everyday. Some day it was really orange and the other dark blue. The first days I took them with my phone until I realized that if I took them with my actual camera the quality would increase a lot. So I started doing that and this was one of the results:

♥♥♥♥

2. Favorite person: (I follow on social media)

This week my favorite person is from twitter. Her name is Geordie (@djgeordiegray) I like her twitter a lot and I agree with a lot of her posts and we have a pretty similar mindset in general. She is really funny but also honest and we have the same taste in music which is just a big bonus.

♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did:

Nothing really interesting happened this week because of school. But that actually brings me to my favorite thing (kinda). My school got 40 a couple of days ago so the entire school went out one hour and we all had balloons. Then there was a countdown and we let them go. I took some pretty rad photos.

♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:

My favorite piece of clothing is a grey turtleneck sweater. It is in this weird fabric but so soft. I bought it at savers (my favorite thrift store in the US) for like 3$. Because I have a cold it's really convenient that it has a turtle neck because then I don't have to wear scarfs...

As you may have noticed I love the sky.

1. Favorite thing to watch:
 My favorite thing to watch this week was How I met your mother. I found a channel on youtube which the entire seasons 5 and 6 and so I watched all of them. Before I only watched HIMYM when it was on TV or something so I missed out on some episodes. Now I really watched like the entire story and know everything that happened.
(If you'd like to watch it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBYL0NCl0UTR8WDcHDtcnKQ)

2. Favorite person: (I follow on social media)

I always have to check my phone before I can answer this to see who's blog I reblogged most from or which person I followed on Instagram. This week it is a tumblr blog again. It's called cxiy and I firstly like the posts and secondly I really like how it looks when you're on your laptop. It reminds me of some film and you can just scroll down. 

♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did:

My favorite thing I did this week was to go to my first ever electric guitar lesson. It was so much fun and I my teacher is amazing. When I left after an hour I couldn't stop smiling because it felt like I just went to a concert. He also told me about a download called TUXGUITAR. You can download tabs and then it plays them for you. You can add drums or any other instrument and then just play along.

♥♥♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:

The thing I liked this week was my red flannel from urban outfitters.. This week you never really knew if it was going to be hot or cold. I just rolled up the sleeves when it got too hot and it's really easy to combine cause it goes with everything really. SIMILAR

♥♥

5. Favorite tumblr post:

I have been on tumblr a lot lately especially in the evenings after I finished my homework cause it's just a great way to relax for a bit. I've been writing a journal for about 2 years now. It's not really a journal. I write in it everyday but not about what I did or how I felt but sentences I heard somewhere that got to me or just a drawing that I liked. I really like this tumblr post and I'll probably copy it into my journal.

Roomtour

LIFESTYLE

Aloha!

So today I thought I'd show you a sneak peak of my room. I won't show you the entire room because of personal items but as I said some bits and pieces. 

 

As you may notice I play guitar. I tried to kinda create a corner for my                                                         instruments, and now I think I succeeded.

I bought this gigantic teddy bear in a hardware store around Christmas. It was only 20 bucks and I would have felt guilty if I would've left him there.

Next to the bear are my penny boards. The black one is a cheap one from another brand and the red one is an original. my penny

This is my little wall where I try to be artsy and creative. Most of my attempts fail but some are okay? I guess, and those okay guesses go up on my wall.

This is my clothes rack I talked about earlier. I put my current favorite clothes up there and try to keep it neat. My closet on the contrary is not that tidy. It's like great you have doors I can shut and only look in once a day!

1. Favorite thing to watch:
My favorite thing to watch this month must be american horror story. I used to be really obsessed with it a couple of months ago and I recently got really into it again. I started in season 1 again and even though I kinda know the story line I jump every time something scary happens.

♥♥♥

2. Favorite person: (I follow on social media)
My favorite person this week would be the tumblr blog thehappysong. I reblog many posts when they come up on my dash and the blog likes mostly all the bands I like.

♥♥♥♥


3. Favorite thing I did:
Well because it was my birthday I'm twisting the question slightly and I'm gonna say favorite thing I got. And that would definitely be my electric guitar! It's a pacifica and it's black and white. I also got a VOX VT20+ speaker.

♥♥♥♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:
While I was at my grandparents at the end of last month we drove to the Netherlands for a day and went shopping. We were in Enschede and we went to Primark and many stores around. My favorite piece of clothing I bought was a scarf from Primark. It is in those really autumny colors and is huuuge. It could replace a picknick blanket, but I really like it and it's so soft.

♥♥♥

5. Favorite tumblr post:
I haven't been on tumblr a lot lately 'cause school stared again a couple of days ago, so I scrolled a little down my own blog to see what I posted even though it wasn't one of the latest posts. I scrolled for a while and stumbled across two photos actually. Both are music related but what isn't really.
So the first one is my favorite female artist. Her name is Halsey and you should definitely check her out if you're into dark electro-pop.

The second picture is a lyric quote from a song called jet black heart. And I really like the quote and the song. It's a mid-tempo pop/rock track from 5 seconds of summer and this album the theme of the songs is not as positive and chirpy as the previous music. This time they do some critical self-reflection and creating the new broken scene with it.

AUGUST FAVORITES 

Hey guys!

I can't believe it is almost September! I remember May like it was yesterday. Summer break was over so damn quick. Over the month I wrote down some stuff I liked using or liked in general. I thought it might be boring if I just include fashion and beauty because I'm not the biggest expert in that field so I added food, interior and songs or music.

So let's start with beauty. Because of the moving I had a loooong summer break from may 23 to September 2. I barely wore make up, not even the littlest bit mascara and my skin is just so much better. I can even rub my eyes without smugging anything which is the best feeling. Because of that I have some skin care products. 

I bought a body moisturizer from Nivea back at Walgreen's. I'm using it since November and it is absolutely amazing. It leaves your legs so soft and a big bottle is not really expensive. 

Next I found an amazing way to save money in fashion. While I lived in the US I bought a lot of stuff because everything is just so much cheaper. Of course I also went to H&M and forever 21 but the most money I spent in thrift shops and sometimes urban outfitters. I can only recommend Thrift shops because you can find some awesome treasures in there. I, for example, bought a sweater for four bucks. Back home I got curious and googled the brand and an original would have cost over 100$!! You can find loads of bargains in stores like that and you can also look online if you don't have one near you :)

Now to a very important topic of mine: food. 

I found a book on the cookbook shelf which is called 'teenager auf veggiekurs'

. It basically has some pretty simple and delicious recipes for teens. I flicked through it and came across a recipe called "zucchini burger". I tried it and it tastes absolutely amazing and is fairly easy to make (I'll share the recipe in another blog post). For people who don't like zucchini don't worry you won't really taste it. Of course you can "design" your burger like you want the zucchini part replaces the meat.

Another part I loved doing this month was to buy some interior stuff to set up my room. Of course our first stop was ikea. I bought a clothes rack because I liked the idea of showing off my flannels.. I also bought a little fake fur carpet and a mirror. But the thing that actually belongs into my favorites is a little 3 piece set of cacti which now has a place on my windowsill. In ikea there was a massive selection of them and they all looked a bit different. So if you're a cactus fan you''ll definitely find something. 

Now on to probably my favorite part of my favorites. Music.

I am so glad my taste in music changed drastically from chart music to alternative and pop punk. I just feel a lot more attached and it actually feels amazing to listen to it and just I enjoy it without having to skip every second song. I made a summer playlist on my spotify with music I enjoyed listening to over summer break. It goes from twenty one pilots to black sabbath, from Halsey to fleetwood mac. But I of course have some favorites. The first one has to be Drive by Halsey which just came out last week. It is really chilled and I actually listened to it on repeat while writing this post. When I listen to it I just wanna do a road trip in the middle of the night stare through the skylight of the car and watch the stares while the song is playing quietly in the back. 

The next one is Caries by About Wayne. A friend of mine recommended me this song with the words "they are kinda like green day". That made me check'em out immediately. As I said it goes more in the rock direction it is kind of the opposite of the first one. 

But every single time I make a playlist anyway, the first like four songs are me tryna exemplify my broad music taste and the rest are the same 7 bands.

What I like

weekly FAVORITES

Hi guys and welcome back.
I thought about showing you my favorites this month because we just moved (in an other blog) and I bought many new bits and pieces. But it's only the 23 (it's my birthday) and maybe I will find something amazing in the next week. Today I stumbled across a YouTube channel called inthefrow and she had the same "problem". So she thought of the "LOVE LIST" where she basically talks about her favorites but not in like fashion and beauty but in more of a lifestyle direction.
(The Video)
So what I'm gonna do is answer some of the questions in more of like a paragraph rather than only a sentence and I'm gonna rate each "thing" from 1 to 5 hearts.

1. Favorite thing to watch:
    As I said before I moved in the beginning of month from the US back to Germany and we are still unpacking and don't have a TV so television wise I am absolutely not up to date. We also just got Internet a couple of days ago so my series addiction had to suffer. Those two cancelled there are only movies I watched on the nine hour flight. I watched a movie in more of a documentary form about Amy Winehouse which was absolutely amazing. It was filmed after her death but wasn't about it. Of course I heard about Amy Winehouse before but I never really listened to her music or something like that. But after I watched it I have so much respect for her and her music and she was really funny and I learned a lot about her.

♥♥♥♥



 2. Favorite person (I follow on social media):
I'm not gonna choose a person that I know personally because I keep that for myself but there are other favorite persons I WISH I knew personally so I'm gonna talk about one of them. This month I started following an instagram account called theadventurehandbook .
They post stories, experiences and adventures from other people and some of the pictures of what people experienced or saw, which makes me wanna book the next flight and go there.

♥♥♥

3. Favorite thing I did:
Besides moving back to Germany was probably when me and a friend of mine went to Braunschweig by train. We had to go on four different trains and it took us such a long time but it was loads of fun. We took our penny boards there and the plan was to skate there. So we stood at the bus station and because we had no idea where we were we pointed our finger at one of the trams and jumped on in. We had no idea where we were going, but we found a little isolated trail and we just went in some direction. On the way to the trail we saw a billboard "rent pedalos here" and we new what we were going to do afterwards.
We went back by tram and stopped at the little house. We traveled down a little canal with many trees and bridges hanging over it and cute little houses next to it. On the way back we even met a Swan boat.

♥♥♥♥♥

4. Favorite piece of clothing:
I went to Hanover a couple of days ago and I wasn't too impressed by the selection. When I looked into all the shops I would normally go in and found nothing I decided to give Primark a go. Well, I'm not really a Primark person and find most of the stuff a little "not my style" which then was the result of my purchases. So I spent about two hours strolling through the first three levels and didn't find anything. I almost gave up until I reached the fourth floor. (Yes I went into the men section) There I found some bracelets and a pair of shoes. But at least I saved some money!

♥♥♥

5. Favorite Tumblr post:
    In the last couple of days I spent a lot of time on tumblr because our Internet was too slow for anything else and most of the time only the text posts were loading. But yesterday I found a picture that I immediately saved.

♥♥♥♥♥
