It's Vintage, Darling!

It was only a few days ago that I stumbled across the online shop This Charming Girl, which offers some gorgeous handmade and vintage jewellry. I'm totally in love with those necklaces and might get one for me as well as for my mum :)

Hopelessly Devoted...

This is my latest love: tiramisu. I can't withstand it. It's standing in the fridge, smiling at me with its cocoa on top, the fluffy mascarpone cream underneath and then the lady's finger bottom with a hint of alcohol. Sooo yummy! Then, however, you see the lid with its calorie information... what's overwhelming me then is not primarily the tasting smell but a truly bad conscience. Well, such a conflicting love....

New DIVIDED Campaign

Well, I got a mail from H&M today.... not exactly something I like these days, because I can be entirely sure that they've come up with new amazing stuff and this is not the thing my purse likes ;D To be honest, however, I was going to take a took at the DIVIDED campaign joyously. 
One thing for sure: It's lovely new clothes <3
Some highlights:
and I very aware of the fact that it was only last week that I bought myself THE very leather jacket... a gorgeous piece in the style of a biker's jacket.... but this one's here from H&M is sooo stunning, isn't it? And it's - I'm pretty sure about it - VERY different from my one :P

I particularly love those wide jeans and trousers which become so trendy this season. Certainly something girls love but boy-friends hate ;D

Well, now I'm going to finally make this blog into what it has always been supposed to be: a fashion blog. Presenting my everyday as well as party outfits and hoping to get some comments on them ;D

I Bought No Gift This Year And I Slept With Your Sister...

... that's a sentence probably no girl-friend wants to hear on Christmas, unless it's out of The Hives' frontman Pelle Almqvist's mouth. And if he even offers a duel with Cyndi Lauper, we'll love to hear this song, don't we? So listen to it on YouTube now. It's one of the best Christmas songs ever and definitely the funniest one ;D

Use Somebody


After their striking first single Sex On Fire from the latest album Only By The Night, Kings of Leon released the second song: Use Somebody. Without a doubt, an amazing track! Especially love the high voice of Calleb Followill in this one ;D

i've been roaming around
always looking down at all i see
painted faces fill the places i can't reach

you know that i could use somebody
you know that i could use somebody
someone like you

and all you know
and how you speak
countless lovers undercover of the street

you know that i could use somebody
you know that i could use somebody
someone like you

off in the night,
while you live it up, i'm off to sleep
waging war to shake the poet and the beat

i hope it's gonna make you notice
i hope it's gonna make you notice
someone like me
someone like me
someone like me

go and let it out
someone like you
somebody
someone like you
somebody
someone like you
somebody

i've been roaming around
always looking down at all i see

The Great Escape

Soon is the time that the Rifles release their second studio album The Great Escape. Since last month, the EP with four tracks from the up-coming CD has been offered. It comprises 1. The Great Escape 2. Darling Girl 3. I Could Never Lie 4. A Love To Die For. I'm very curious about the album as I've loved the Rifles from the very beginning. The four songs show that the four boys have kept their style but nevertheless, they all don't appear as strong as those from the first album. Anyway, The Great Escape is certainly something wort waiting for! It'll be released 29 Januar, 2009.

Baby, It's Cold Outside!

I so can't wait for Christmas to come anymore! I love this time of year when everything is beautifully decorated, when it smells like snow, cinnamon and fir needles. Plus, I'm dying to finally have holidays. This school semester has definitely exhausted me, and I'm now looking forward to some stress relaxation as well as to the final spurt of my finals.
