Apple never ceases to amaze us. With not a single rumor in the time leading up to this reveal, Apple has just announced its collaboration with french maison Hermès: The Apple Watch Hermès. With three different models, available in five colors, the chic, yet functional watches will be available from October 5th in select stores worldwide.
After months of searching and waiting, I finally found the most coveted fashion item of the season! Who would have thought that something so simple would become so desirable?
Nowadays, Mansur Gavriel´s bucket bag ist said to be harder to come by than the famous Birkin bag by Hermès and the understated, casual design has become an instant classic.
Today´s blog entry is one that I am very excited about: Little Miss Sunshine and I are wearing matching outfits for the very first time! The pictures were taken while we were strolling through one of Cologne´s many parks, and as you can see, the weather was more than perfect :-)
Happy weekend, everybody! xoxo

It´s been a few weeks since my last post and I am truly sorry for this! Even though I always knew that being a mom would change my priorities forever, I never in a million years imagined how (sometimes) stressful and time consuming this new role can be. And while I enjoy and appreciate every moment with my little one, I also miss my old life and especially my blog.
Well, I will try to post more often and regularly from now on! Bear with me, my dear readers :-)
For today´s boho-inspired look I wore a white tunic from Zara, some grey skinny jeans and combined them with my current go-to-mom-shoes from Jimmy Choo. Yes, my high-heel-wearing-times seem to be over and I assembled quite the sneakers-collection. Didn´t see that one coming :-)

Last week I spent some time in Maastricht, a wonderful city in the Netherlands which is close to my hometown Aachen. As we strolled the streets, we took these pictures that I wanted to show you today:

It was just a matter of time, but now it is official: Chanel will increase the prices for its Handbags about 30% in Europe. The move is meant to streamline the pricing in Europe and China. Classics like the 11.12, 2.55 and Boy Bag will see the price increases on April 8, while the rest of Chanels product range will receive the new prices till the end of the year. But thats not the only bad news:
Last weekend was so sunny and warm that we took the chance and shot these pictures. As you can see, I am very yet another hat by Maison Michel. The fabulous french fashion label is owned by Chanel and specializes in hatwear and hair accessoiries. My favorite models are “Virginie” (which I own in a nice bordeaux color) and “Henrietta” which is pictured above.

To me, 2014 is one of the most exciting years ever. I have seen, felt and experienced so many things that it seems as if time has somehow just flown by. At the beginning of 2014, I would have never imagined that today, a year later, I would be pregnant with my first child and being so close to my due date.
Nevertheless, I am more than thankful for everything that has happenend within the past months, and today, I would like to give you a little overview of some of my favorite moments:
Today´s outfit post is all about the newest addition to my little handbag family. It was a very lucky surprise (and coincidence), but last week I had the chance to be offered this fabulous and oh so classy bag - and of course I could not turn down the offer. The Hermès Kelly bag, one of the most iconic and famous bags ever, is very hard to come by, especially in black, and I am more than happy to finally be the proud owner of such a wonderful investment piece.
The cashmere sweater that I am wearing in this pictures is actually a mini dress - but since my belly won´t stop growing, it is currently one of the very few items in my closet that I can still wear. For a more casual approch, I styled my H&M maternity jeans and some very comfortable Chanel ankle boots.
Btw, did any of you shop the big sales at Net-a-Porter, Mytheresa, Stylebop, Luisa Via Roma and Co.?

Handbag: Hermès (this Fendi-bag is a stunner as well)
Last week I spent some wonderful days in Paris, my favorite city in the world. We opted for the famous and luxurious Shangri-La Hotel (the only place where you can have breakfast on your terrace and enjoy the beauty of the Eiffel tower), ate some of the most delicious foods and I even scored the bag of my dreams at Hermès. For those of you that don´t follow me on Instagram, here´s a little summary of what I have been up to:
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.
Dress: H&M (loving this or this alternative)
Shoes: Valentino (also available here or here)
Handbag: Chanel
Earrings: Dior Tribal Mise en Dior
Bracelets: Hermès & Jennifer Meyer
Nail Polish & Lipgloss: Dior Le Vernis Nuit 1947 & Dior Addict Fluid Stick (Farbe Wonderland)
Ever since my belly started to show, I have been struggling to find the balance between feeling comfortable in my clothes and looking chic at the same time. One fashion “trend” that I have really grown to like are total tone on tone looks - I found them to be very sophisticated and stylish. For today´s outfit, I combined different shades of powder pink with some of my favorite overknee boots by Prada.
Coat: Max Mara (find a similar version here or here)
Top: New Look Maternity
Scarf: Chan Luu
Jeans: H&M Maternity (a regular version here)
Boots: Prada (sold out, but loving this or this model)
Handbag: Louis Vuitton SC Bag
Bracelet: Hermès
Earrings: Mise en Dior
Nail Polish & Lipstick: Dior Le Vernis Rouge 999 & Rouge Pur Couture The Mats No. 210
There are a only a few pieces of jewelry that I wear on a daily or regular basis. My absolute favorite one is of course my wedding band which I never take off, but I also own some earings and bracelets that I try to mix and match with my everyday looks:
simple and dark look, I combined different shades of black with intense burgundy. Even though I usually try to mix things up and add a pop of color, at this stage of my pregnancy I am all about matching similar shades and colors.
Happy weekend, everybody!
