Heyy, happy sunny day! :) Today I’m guest blogging over on Frieda’s Retrogalerie, a great German blog, mainly dealing with sewing, thrifting, awesome DIY projects, pretty vintage stuff and family life. :) Alex. who lives in Kassel – the city I originally come from – has invited me to prepare a guest post for summer. :) Check out her super blog and see my refreshing recipe for a homemade lemonade with raspberries, lemon & lemon balm. :)

Sewing DIY: Zipper Pillow
Hello, lovelies! :) Feeling like trying out a new sewing project? :) Today I’m guest blogging on Magnolialectric, because my lovely blogger pal Stef has invited me to share a summer DIY for her blog. :) Check out her awesome blog and learn how to sew a pillow case with a zipper, I provided an easy to follow step by step tutorial. :) It’s in German, but I think international readers will also be able to understand it due to the photos. :)
Have fun and say hi to Stef! :)
Happy Sunday,

Everybody has a summer holiday…
Dear readers, I hope you’re all enjoying summer! :)
As soon as my holidays begun, weather became awesome!!! The first week of my holidays is now over and it has been awesome! Some of our best friends were here, Flo and I went to the lake twice and sat in the sun, Anja and I spent an afternoon in her garden, using her parent’s garden shower ;D and Flo and I have been to the Baltic Sea for a short holiday. It was more than awesome and I wish I could turn back time and enjoy this precious time again! :)
When we go to the seaside, Mogli loves this, too. He loves water and he loves being outside and he totally enjoyed our trip and the hours at the doggy beach.
I prepared lots of food for a nice picnic, I made blueberry-lemon muffins, a fruit salad, mascarpone with fresh fruits and sponge biscuit and we took ice tea and pizza (not homemade) with us. :)
Do you spot the little insect on his head and his tongue coming out of his mouth? :D I love the expression of his face in this photo! :D
Those precious days passed by way too fast, but we enjoyed it a lot and now I’m looking forward to an awesome week with some of my very favourite bloggers, can’t wait to tell you more!! :)
Enjoy summer!!! :)

Heyyy, happy Saturday! :) I hope you’re fine! :) I just came back from a short trip to the seaside and here’s an outfit post matching my current mood. :)
Last weekend, we were having some visitors, some of our best friends came over the weekend to celebrate Flo’s birthday with us. :)
Because I love theme parties and because I love to decorate, I offered Flo to prepare maritime decor and a maritime buffet for him (I’m gonna share photos of it, soon). :) I wanted to have an outfit that fits the party’s theme, but I didn’t want to spend lots of money on it, so I upcycled an old, plain, red dress. :) What is more, I sewed the hat myself! :) I made four of those, one for myself, one for Anja and two for other guests. :) Mogli got a handmade cape, too. :)
So here’s everything that I wore. :)
Mogli’s tiny cape: handmade
