Striped pants

The other day I went to this really awesome flea market in Berlin...

I bought a great odlschool travel chess set from the 1940s (I guess) which my fiance and I use almost every day we are together :)
And then I bought this striped pair of pants and a striped blazer. For everything I paid some 7Euro. I was totally thrilled and even though the pants are slightly too large, I love them a lot and wear them at least once a week since I got them :)

Now that is is getting warm I really love to spend lots of time on flea markets. Next month my fiance is going to move in with me and I can't wait to get lots of things for our flat on the fleamarket (I am looking for some nice lamps and some things for the kitchen...:)).

For now I am wishing all of you a wonderful Sunday! I went out for breakfast this morning and now I am ready for another cup of coffee with two lovely ladies in my favorite coffee shop... Perfect Sunday :)

White and Orange

Yesterday it was 34°C! 

That's a lot... nevertheless I got dressed somehow properly and took the train to see my fiance who is living in a near-by city (next month he will move in with me :)) and we went for a walk. 

I am happy that one cannot see the sweat on my face in these pictures ;) 
Maybe you can see the hundreds of mosquito bites on my legs and knees. Mosquitos are really bad this year in Germany as there is soooo much water because of the floodings. Its impossbile to have a picknick in the park without being pricked all over by the mosquitos. I tried and it was no fun...

Tomorrow I will go to Berlin for a week- I will have a family meeting for a few days and see a few friends that I haven't seen in a while. I will not be able to take my laptop so I will not blog anything for the next week. Sorry for that. However, you are still welcome to follow me on instagram (rosalarissaklara) which I update on a reagular basis (one could argue that I am a little addicted actually...)

Have a wonderful weekend all of you and a great week next week! I will miss blogging :)!!!

It's too hot this week...

Dear Readers, dear Followers,

this week is too hot to do ANYTHING but spending the days at the lake... 

Today we have 33°C here in my part of Germany. This may be not that much for some of you, but for a German living in the city (where there is no wind...) in a flat without A/C it's too much to concentrate on thesis writing or future- planning ;) 

Any recommendations what do to with those really hot days (except for spending them at the lake)? What do you like best to do on those hot days?

  

 

Now, as you can see this picture is another instagram of mine. So if you want to follow me on instagram you can find ma as rosalarissaklara.  

However, my instagram is somehow different from my blog as I do not post any fashion stuff out there but only pictures from my life, my city, etc. just have a look if you like :)

More lace from the thrift shop :)

The last time I went to the thrift shop I bought not only one but two lace dresses...

You may remember the other one from this post !? I love both and I am still amazed that I got them for 1,50 Euro :)

I was wearing this light blue dress yesterday, when I met some friends in Berlin. I had a wonderful day with my two friends. We used to be together every day during our undergrad studies and haven't been all together for two years since. It was so nice then to spend an evening and a day with those two lovely ladies :)

Happy Monday to all of you wonderful readers and followers :) 

Here it is going to be hot this week and I am  a little afraid that I will spend more time at the lake than on writing my thesis.. :)

Same blouse, different style

As I mentioned earlier this blouse is one of my favorites for the moment...


you may remember it from this post where I wore it in a black combination.

This time it was warmer so I combined it with my red shorts :)

Happy mid- week everyone! Hope its as sunny and nice as here ;)

DIY mask/ face scrub

Another idea for an all organic and healthy mask/ face scrub...

You just need grounded almonds and honey.


Blend both together and apply to your face. Leave for 30- 60 minutes and when you take it off again add a little bit of water to your hands and scrub the mask off. 

The honey is cleaning the skin and the almond gives some extra nutritions and is especially good for dry skin.

I really love this mask and apply it at least once a week! It makes my skin super soft and helps small impurities to dissapear. 

Have fun and have a wonderful week!

New Bicycle...

As I told you last week, I got a new bicycle :)

My old one was stolen while I was in Ohio and I've been looking for a new one since I came back to Germany (one month already! Can't believe how fast the time went!)

Last week I finally found a new one... it is very old as you can see, and everything had to be fixed before I was able to ride it. But still I love it! :)

And this it is :) 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend with lots of Sunshine and laughter :)!?
I had my friend L. from Berlin coming over, and we had a great time driving around my city with bicycles and going out dancing Saturday night :)

Floods in Germany...

You may have heard from the floods in Germany!?


Well here are some impressions from the city next door which was hit quite hard. When I took the pictures yesterday, the water level was already more than a meter (3.3 feet) lower than the day before... so you can imagine that it was really bad. 

Now, day by day, it is getting better around here. The water is moving to the North. Some citites further North will be hit quite bad in the coming days. 

I have to say that I am really impressed about how good everyone is working together! Everyone is helping and people become to incredible solidly united! I really like that!

Jeans Shirt

I've been rather sceptical about jeans dresses and shirts in the past...

this somehow changed this season, where I got my first jeans dress (which you can see here) and my first jeans shirt which you can see here :) 

I am sorry that I did not post much this week- you may have heard that there are floodings all over Germany!? My region is especially endangered and lots of people have to help... Thousands of people already had to leave their houses and more will probably have to follow. This, together with the happenings in Turkey are occupying my mind at the moment... 

Anyhow, this is my outfit with the jeans shirt :)

I hope you guys are enjoying the beginning of summer :)!?

Have a wonderful end of the week!!!

Oh, and by the way- I got a new bicycle! I will show it to you soon :)
