These shoes!

Due to being incredibly busy I didn't get to post anything during the last couple of days, unfortunately. There were several jobs I couldn't postpone, but for now I got some free time to enjoy the golden October weather, which is unexpectedly frosty but sunny though. So: yesterday was fleemarket-day, finally again! I went there very early with a friend of mine, wearing my new beloved autumn-style shoes, which I simply love - aren't they the cutest thing to wear in this time of the year?

DIY kitties

My project for today is to introduce to you an absolutely loveable blog I discovered. It is a site run by Mimi Kirchner, she has tons and tons of do-it-yourself-projects, which are so inspiring and cute, I couldn't but love all of them! She works with several materials and the results are enchanting! These I found in the January 2005 issue, they just make me smile, I definitely have to try to do that myself...

You can buy those adorable creatures in the cozy.org shop. They are extremely expensive but if I had the amount, I'd buy ten of them! Enjoy the stroll through her gallery and be inspired!

New kitty bag!

Today I received my new supergreat, grey kitty bag, which I ordered from an Austrian seller on eBay. It's just so lovely - I love the natural fabrics, the cottage style linen look, the wooden button and those ever cute kitties. It's handmade and it cost me almost nothing!

red shoes

Today is red-shoes-day! I don't wear this pair very often because I always find it hard to walk on kitten-heels... but they looked so fine with the red curduroy skirt, that I had to give them a chance for today. I combined them with a soft, black 60s style babydoll coat and black lace tights. I sort of felt like little red riding hood, even though I didn't wear any cap ;)

today's outfit: black and purple

I'm not that much for this strange dots-trend which arose sometime last winter. Neither do I like the silly skull-print clothes you can find anywhere you go. Strange enough, today I found myself wearing a dotty outfit with a scarf, in which you can find pink skulls if you only look hard enough... don't ask me. I felt like dressing up a little darker as it was quite dark in the morning too, which made it hard to take good pictures. So this is the result:


It's a simple combination of an embroidered babydoll dress with a purple longsleeve, a black corduroy skirt, purple knee-highs and a beautiful black pair of Mary Poppins style vintage boots, which I love.

boots again!

I love Autumn! Well, it's got its grey sides, it brings rain and unfriendly bunches of clouds are putting this veil on everything, that makes you want to spend the whole day inside. Which is great too! Who doesn't love long, dark evenings with hot chocolate, candles, warm woven socks and a good movie on TV?! The second thing: boots! You can try hard but actually it's no fun to wear boots in summer! So pulling my beloved boots out of the closet after months of negligence is the most lovely welcome-back I can imagine! Today I wear them with a simple curduroy skirt and my fluffy fake-fur-coat I introduced lately...

today's outfit

Spending the weekend at a Bavarian village wedding left a lot of positivity inside of me. Even though it's grey outside and raining, I feel sort of joyful and enjoy the day just as much as any sunny Sunday! Well, and the bride and all the lovely wedding decorations inspired me to wear flowers! That's not too inventive now, but maybe I wouldn't have had the strength to dress up against the weather...

I especially love the new grey tights I bought, which are extraordinarily soft and got these nice folky patterns. They fit perfectly with my favourite oxfords...
