Today´s look is an outfit I have worn just a few days ago to a little cocktail party. The black dress is from H&M´s regular collection and perfectly fits my growing belly - plus, I kind of believe that the slim cut and deep black shade make me look not as big as I currently am.

Since I knew that I would be standing a lot at that particular evening, I chose my Valentino Rockstud pumps in a chic eggplant color - they are the most comfortable High Heels I own, and I really wish that Valentino would make them in more colors.

If you live in a rainy city such as Cologne (or London), rain boots are an absolute must for everyday life. Last month, I finally found a pair that does both look chic and which is very comfortable - and they are made of rubber! I really like that they do not look like typical rain boots, but resemble much more a classic riding boot.

Happy weekend!

If there is one piece of clothing that you should always invest in- and I am very serious about this - it would be a good wool coat. A nice coat (e. g. made of cashmere or camel hair wool) will make the most casual outfit look chic and sophisticated within seconds, and to me, being the lazy dresser that I am, this is very important.

A few weeks ago when my bump hadn´t grown so much yet, I decided to buy this wonderful and cozy hooded coat by Max Mara. The fabric has a nice touch to it and I love how the simple design allows me to dress this coat up or down.
