Celebrity Sunday: Rachel Bilson

2012-05-06T05:07:00.001-07:00

For todays Celebrity Sunday I chose Rachel Bilson because she has always been one of my favourite celebrities.
Not only stylewise - I think she has a really cute and down to earth personality wich makes her so likeable. And like many other fashion lovers out there I'm absolutely obsessed with ShoeMint :)
I love how she pimped up this casual outfit with a leopard printed scarf and some high wedges!

Hope you liked it :)

Happy Alomst Weekend

2012-05-03T13:57:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone!

Sun is shining, it's hot outsite and my friend and I are sitting in my backyard listening to "Train - Drive By" drinking vegetable smoothies - what a wonderful day :)

Smoothies are a great way to include vegetables into your diet if you are like me and a cucumber or cabbage isn't the first thing you reach for when you are looking for a little snack.

As we all know vegetables - especially the green ones - are very healthy for your body. They contain lots of iron, vitamins etc and help preventing diseases like Alzheimer's or cancer.

How to make a Vegetable Smoothie:

It's actually pretty simple.

All you need is a juice extractor and some fresh vegetables.

We put 1 cucumber, 1 zucchini, some spinach and 1 kohlrabi in it.

But feel free to use whatever you like. You can literally extract the juice of pretty much any vegetable or fruit you can possibly think of. Just try out different combinations till you find out what you like most.

To have some variety you can take different vegetable combiations every time you do it.

I also like to add some lemon every now and then :)

Just put all vegetables in the juice extractor and mix everything together by stirring with a spoon. Than put the finished smsoothie into a nice glass ( like a cocktail glass that way you can pretend you are drinking and exotic cocktail and it tastes much better ;) and thats it -were done!

I must say that it took a while for me to get used to the taste but I actually really like it now. I try to drink one glass of vegetable juice every single day.

Even if you don't like the taste so much a guarantee you that you will feel amazing after you drank it. Especially in summer it will make you feel super refreshed and healthy.

I hope you liked my little tip!

Have a great start in the weekend :)

Collective Haul - H&M, Asos

2012-04-19T04:01:00.000-07:00

Hey guys :)

Since winter is officially over and spring has finally arrived (at least where I live :) I thought I would stock up my wardrobe with some basic items for spring and summer.

A few weeks ago I purchased these four dresses at asos.com.

I love them because you can style them with literally everything. You can either dress them up with a blazer and high heels or dress them down with flats and a denim jacket.

In case you are wondering why I got the same dress in different colors - well when a piece of clothing comes in more than one color I can never decide wich one to get. So I thought since the dresses are such basic items its ok to get them in two colors :)

Dress No 1 :)

Asos - 26€

I love this light lavender color and I absolutely adore the big cutout at the back it looks very elegant under the motto- a beautiful rear can also endear ;)

Dress No 2 :)

Asos - 26€

And here we have the same dress in black

Dress No 3 :)

Asos - 21€

This dress is very simple by itself but styled with the right accessories it will look just amazing

Dress No 4 :)

Asos - 21€

And again we have the same dress in black :)

Blazer No 1 :)

H&M - 35€

This Blazer will dress up every outfit - I especially like the ruffled detailing on the sleeves

Blazer No 2

H&M - 35€

I lovethis blazer. It's super comfy and the pattern inside is sooo pretty :)

Skirt :)

H&M - 5€

And last but not least I got another black plain basic skirt - a must have in every girls wardrobe

Hope you liked my little haul :)

Have a wonderful day!

Movie Night - Titanic 3D

2012-04-16T04:21:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone :)

When a friend of mine told me that the original Titanic movie would be released in 3D in April 2012 I couldn't believe my ears because Titanic is one of my favourite movies ever. I've seen it countless times already - and it still doesn't get boring :)

I was able to get my hands on some tickets for the preview one day before the actuall premiere.
On top of showing the film there is always a little champagne reception and a tombola before the film starts. You had the chance to win diving lessons, free movie tickets and some other cool stuff.
...
Unfortunately my friend and I had decided to go snack shopping at our local grocery store before we went to see the movie (snacks at the theater are always so expensive -.-) and it took us longer than we had planed so we missed the champagne reception and couldn't enter the tombola :(
But luckily we didn't miss the beginning of the film :)

Anyways so I was super excited to see Titanic in 3D not only because I love the movie but also because I had never seen a film in 3D before.

Now here are my thoughts on the film:

I don't know if I might had to high expectations because I haven't seen a 3D movie before but I actually wasn't that impressed by the 3D effects.

At some parts I even forgott that I was watching a 3D movie and on other parts I actually took off my glasses because the scenes looked better without them.

But all in all I am still glad that I watched it because when Titanic came out for the first time I was very young and didn't went to the movies to see it. I watched it for the first time a couple years later with some friends on TV.

So just to see Titanic on a big cinema screen is totally worth it for me to go see the movie.

If you like Titanic and haven't had the chance to watch it in theater when it came out the first time I would definitely suggest that you go see it :)

Tell me what you think about Titanic 3D.

Have you watched it already? Or if not will you go see it?

I wish you all a nice start in the week :)

Celebrity Sunday: Kim Kardashian

2012-04-01T05:36:00.000-07:00

Hi guys :)

For todays Celebrity Sunday I chose Kim Kardasion because I'm in love with her sense of style. She always looks gorgeous no matter if she walks down the red carpet or is just out shopping in Los Angeles.

I like the elegant look of the black tight skirt with the pumps but dressed down with a rocker chic leather jacket. On top its a pastel blue colour wich as we know is perfect for spring.

I'm also obsessed with her hair style :)

Hope you like my recreation of this outfit :)

Enjoy your sunday guys :) I'm just going to enjoy the sun for the rest of the day since it has been raining the last 3 days :(
See you soon :)

xoxo Jade

Springspiration Series #2 - Bright Jeans

2012-03-29T06:38:00.001-07:00

Hey guys :)

Sorry I haven't been uploading for almost two weeks but I have been super busy with working and studying.

But today I am super excited to show you another one of my favourite trends for spring - colourful bright jeans.

You can find them in pretty much any colour - yollow, orange, blue, pink etc-.

Another thing that I like about this trend is that depending on how comfortable you are with wearing coloured pants there are so many different variations of them. For those who aren't so coforable yet but still want to try it out there are some pastel colored or really light colored ones. But for those of you who really want to go wild and crazy there even are some neon colored ones- and I can assure you with a neon pink jeans you are going to cath everyones attention ;)

I am personally super in love with this trend an I can't wait to wear my first bright pair of jeans :)

I think to get a little cofortable with this trend I am going to pair the jeans with just one other colour like black or white or maybe some beige the first time I wear them. This outfit below gives you some idea how this might look like.

And when I am a little bit more used to it I might pair them with some other colours -

wich already leads me to the next spring trend but I will tell you about this one in another post ;)

What about you? To you like this trend or do you think this is a little to much?

Celebrity Sunday: Selena Gomez

2012-03-18T06:41:00.081-07:00

Hey guys :)

The second I saw this picture of Selena I was totally upsessed with her outfit.

Even though she mixed a lot of different styles together I think it looks absolutely gorgeous on her.

I especially love her top but unfortunately its not available anymore and with almost 100$ it's a little bit out of my price range, too.

In case you guys wonder it was the blue life jersey cape tee and sold at saks 5th avenue.

Hope you like my recreation :)

I wish you all a wonderful sunday :)

Sringspiration Series : 1. Pastels

2012-03-16T07:14:00.000-07:00

Hey my lovelies :)

I'm in a super springish good mood today because we have 20°C outside and the sun is shining and I feel that spring is officially starting.

Thats why I decided to started a spring series with my favourtie trends for spring 2012.

As you can probably tell from the title the first one is going to be about PASTELS.

Anything that is pastel coloured will be super in this spring - from dresssr over tops and pants up to handbags, scarfs and earrings :)

After the cold winter month these items will bring back a little colour into your wardrobe ;)

I am totally obsessed with this trend. For me pastel coloured cloth are the perfect bit of colour a spring outfit needs to have.

Let me know how you like this trend :)

Quote of the day- Happy tuesday everyone :)

2012-03-13T04:50:00.000-07:00

I've been lucky. Opportunities don't often come along.
So, when they do, you have to grab them.

-Audrey Hepburn

Just so true :)

It's actually pretty obvious but I think sometimes we have to remind ourselfes again and who could be a better reminder than the great Audrey Hepburn? ;)

OOTD - A littel bit of colour

2012-01-24T07:20:00.000-08:00

Hi guys,

I am absolutely upsessed with this outfit so I thought I would share it with you :)

I took a simple nude dress and paired it with a nude coat and golden/white jewelry. To give it a little bit of colour I added a red pair of shoes and this beautyful red bag. For a final touch I would apply nude nailpolish, some black winged out eyeliner and of course you can never go wrong with a red lip ;)

This style works with every colour. Just take a nutural dress or pants and sweater and add accesories in any colour you like. It can be your favourite colour or maybe match your car wich I think would look pretty cool :)

There are endless possibilities just be creative and try it out :)

I hope you got some ideas and I wish you a wonderful tuesday evening :)

See you next time <3

Hey guys :)

I'm just about to leave to the movies to see Sherlock Holmes with a friend of mine and thought I would show you what I'm wearing really quick.

Since I am going to sit in the dark pretty much the whole time I mostly wanted it to be comfortable. So I threw on my favourite jeans in the entire world I swear to you they are so comfortable it almost feels like you're wearing leggins :D. Abercrombie is by far my favourite place to shop when it comes to jeans. I find that they are made of the most comfortable fabrik and I also really like the blue tones they have (like this really dark almost navy blue you know :) )

I paired the jeans with some flat brown boots wich I got about 3 years ago and they are still one of my favourite pairs. They are super pretty but also timeless.

Than I threw on an overzized sweater with an ifinity scarf over top. This is like my favourite combination when its cold outside. It feels so cozy and looks stylish at the same time.

For handbag I chose my speedy wich I carry around pretty much every day and everywhere. It goes with almost any outfit I'm wearing and holds all my tons of stuff that I feel like I need to carry around with me ( I'm like most wimen carrying basically my entire life around.. you know what I mean ;)

And last but not least I'm wearing a long owl necklace and a simple black watch just to give the outfit a nice finish I guess :D

Let me know what you think of it and I will see you guys soon :)

2012-01-08T17:03:00.000-08:00

Hi guys :)

I just took a break from studying all day long and created this look right here.

(Such random things always relax me hehe)

I think it would be perfect for a little window shopping downtown since its sunday and all the shops are closed anyway ;)

With the ugg boots you can walk around all day long without your feet hurting. I feel like the rest is like the perfect mixture between comfortable and stylish and the red scarf, nails and lips add a special touch to it.

I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love windows shopping. Literally I could do that for hours and don't get bored even a bit. It's almost better than actual shopping because I imagine myself buying all these things that I like and don't even have to worry about prices. And the best thing... I don't spend any money at all wuhuu :D

Maybe thats weird.. or are some of you doing that as well every now and then ? ;)

Also it's one of my favourite childhood memories. My mother, my sister and I used to drive downtown maybe one sunday a mounth and just walk through our local shopping street talking about all the beautyful things in the windows.

After that we always went to dinner or got some ice cream or something and it just seemed like a perfect day to me (beeing all young and not knowing about the hardship of life yet :P )

...and I am getting all sentimental now :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend :-)

Hi guys :)

My name is Jade and I am super excited to wirte my first blogpost ever.

I am 18 years old and live in Germany.. at least for now because I wanna start traveling everywhere and anywhere, I wanna see the world and all the beautyful things mother earth has to offer :D

I started this blog because I am extremely passionate about writing, taking pictueres and a lot of creative stuff in general. To be a little more specific I for example love cathing a special moment and save it for forever :) To me this is one of the most beautyful things to do.

Also I like to share that with other poeple.

I appreciate every king of feedback. Hearing positive feedback about my work makes me so happy everytime and negative or better constructive criticysm helps me improving and getting better every time.

So now we get to the probably most interesting point for you guys:

What is this blog going to be about?

Well..to be honest I'm not exactly sure yet.

I love traveling, fashion, cooking, beauty and so many other things that I think it would be a waste to limit my blog just to one topic don't you think ;)

Anyway.. I guess I will just start posting a little bit and we will see where it goes.

Hope to see you all at my next blogpost :)
