Outfit: Aloha Python.




Aloha Python Duster kimono: Spell Designs via KyssJohanna || Tee: Secondhand, originally from Zara || Shorts: Romwe || Western booties: Zara || Coin boho necklace: Urban Outfitters || Concho belt: Lovestrength

I wore this outfit or at least this beautiful snake printed duster more than 4 times last week, it's simply perfect. The kimono is like a dream which became reality! Its material is flowy, soft and the best thing to wear during hot summer days when the sun is constantly shining. I'm obsessing over its beautiful beige/cream/brownish snake print so hard! Actually I love snakes as well, they are beautiful little creatures, even though there are many people who don't really like them. It's my first full-length kimono and I like the fact that it isn't oversized, it's straight fitting so it adds a nice silhouette to your body! Furthermore it's not too short and not too long for me, wearing full-length clothing can be really annoying sometimes when it's too long and drag on the ground even while wearing heels, but I can wear the kimono with flats, too!  I love wearing it with cowboy booties, biker tees and cut-offs, because it's comfortable and a bit 'dressed down'. Of course I also wear a lot vintage jewelry as usual, I'm so happy it's finally summer and your jewelry can actually be seen (in winter necklaces or bracelets are underneath your scarves or coats…)! I decided to get the other version of my favorite ottoman coin necklace, too. It has a longer fringe than my first one I bought, but after constantly wearing it, I wanted to wear the bigger sister of course haha.

Outfit: Pocahontas.


Feathery navajo printed blouse: Kate Moss x Topshop || Lace shorts: H&M || Boots: Zara || Necklaces: Nasty Gal and Hunter Gatherer 

Here you can see the last piece I got from the Kate Moss & Topshop collaboration. This whole collection was simply me , so this boho blouse has got me at first sight. I wore this look when there was 33 degrees outside and I was so lucky to have this blouse. It's very light, flowy and feels great on your skin when it's hot. Actually it's quite see-through, so when you think about getting it, size up as I did - so there's a better length and more fabric! I think it's the edgiest blouse I've ever seen and its whole design is such a boho chic perfection. You all know I love navajo and western styles, so this one fits perfectly in my wardrobe. It has some slitted arms and a cute tied front detail and the print is drop dead gorgeous. I actually feel like Disney's "Pocahontas" while wearing this look (or maybe the western version of it haha) as the title already says. 
Furthermore I picked some vintage jewelry and the thunderbird necklace I bought a couple of years ago. It fits perfectly to the blouse I think - Native american culture have always fascinated me, I love their worldview, the understanding of how living together with nature and animals should be and I admire them for the freedom they have.

Outfit: Seasons Don't Fear The Reaper


Floral fringed kimono: Zara (sold out, but also available on Romwe or Sheinside) || Ramones tee: old, similar on eBay ||  Shorts: Romwe || Necklaces: Urban Outfitters and Nasty Gal

This look is my typical signature combo I wear in summer - shorts, a print top,boots and one of my beloved kimonos. I love wearing it, because it's not only super comfortable, it's also edgy with laid-back attitude at the same time. I bought the kimono at Zara some months ago and it was my first floral kimono ever. And what a surprise: there's yellow in it! I have not a single yellow clothing piece in my wardrobe, I really don't like wearing that color (I just don't like it on me so it doesn't mean it can't look good others). But when yellow is included as a print, I don't bother it at all. I love that the fringe's material is very thick and long! I will probably only wear the white floral print combined with black or grey clothes, so it stands out more.

Outfit: Take me to the Evergreen.


Glastonbury lace dress: Spell Designs || Jewelry: Vintage findings || Boots: Bershka

This is probably my favorite look ever, because it includes my favorite dress. Well, actually I have many dresses I really love, but this one is perfection. I had been longing for it for ages, then I finally got it and I will never let it leave me again. Seriously, it has the perfect fit, perfect details and I always feel like a fairy and fall in love with it again and again while wearing it. It's no wonder actually because it's from my favorite brand, unfortunately it wasn't that 'cheap' at all - but it was definitely worth it, because it will accompany me through the next summers haha. You all have probably seen I have a little white lace obsession, because it's my favorite fabric in summer (velvet in winter btw!). One day I want to have a wedding dress which is similar looking to this one hehe. I put my favorite vintage treasures on and some western boots and voila - the look is completely me. I also played with some vintage effects while editing the pictures from my shoot, do you like it? I always love using vintage effects, but they shouldn't ruin the whole photo when they're too extreme in my opinion.

The last days have been so hot, everyone's melting here in Germany - 35-36 degrees, but somehow I enjoy the heat while staying out of the sun. I'm literally jumping from shadow to shadow… or should I better said chasing shadows?). It had been a long winter this year, so I really can't understand those people constantly complaining about the high temperature - it's only summer one time in the year and to me the heat is more nice to my body as the terrible cold in winter. Just drinking some cool drinks and everything's fine! xx

Weekly Update #1

Here is another category I want to introduce to you: "Weekly Update"! I'm going to post it weekly (as the name already says…) and it's about my current loves, plans and what's actually happening in my life. So here we go #1!

Bought…
This beautiful hand tooled vintage bag, a long duster and a lace blouse by my favorite brand Spell Designs.
Finally, I had been searching for such a long time for the perfect tooled bag. Then I found this babe on eBay UK last week. The kimono and the blouse had been on my wishlist for weeks now, they finally dropped on a european online shop.

Inspired…
I discovered this beautiful blog written by two girls who post about their road trips in Australia, I love their photography so much! So inspiring and giving life a new meaning. Their blog also makes clear to me how much I'm dreaming of a life on the road like this.
                                                                          WeAre365

Watched…
Many episodes of the final season 90210 (the new version). I have 8 episodes left, I will miss the show so much. I fell in love with the characters and suffered with them and felt with them their problems. Their outfits are always so inspiring and the music is fantastic! Ivy (left the show in season 4 unfortunately…) and Naomi are my favorite characters. 90210 is definitely my favorite tv series ever made!

Listened…
To my usual stuff and obsessing over Pendulum - favorite song is "The Fountain" at the moment.




Wishlist…
This dress and this playsuit. Need them as soon as possible aaaaaahhh.


Random thoughts…
Is it possible to have a deep connection and close relationship with an adult predator when you raised it since it was born? I went to the zoo with Mum last week and I was totally fascinated by this beautiful tiger. I'm sure these zookeepers only enter its zoo exhibit when the tiger is locked away, so they are safe. But what happens when the animal knows you from its early age and you know it aswell? I'm sure animals are so intelligent and sensitive that they won't hurt you then, because they know you, love you and aren't afraid of you.
Here are some pics of the day at the zoo from my instagram page - I also posted a great snap of my favorite birds - eagles. I wish I could have one as my pet haha.



Tumblr enchantment…
Somehow I love looking at beautiful pictures of flowers.

Plans for the upcoming days…
Taking pictures for outfit posts, going for a walk and enjoying the heat. Definitely a more lazy week after the stressful days full of learning for my final exams. Finally over!

Outfit: Summer heating.



Crochet top: Banggood || Fringe bag: Banggood || Concho belt: eBay || Ethnic printed skirt: Forever 21 || Cowboy Boots: Bershka || Flower crown: old similar here

Today I post a look which is perfect for going to town and having a shopping trip - it's incredibly hot outside and I'm glad I own so many hollow-out tops at the moment -  this one is just amazing and airy! It's from Banggood aswell as the fringe bag. I love fringing so much especially on bags or jackets you might already know - this one is roomy and soooo soft! The skirt was a real bargain, too. I got it for around 12€ and it's probably my only 'summer mini skirt'. I don't know somehow I have so many velvet skirts or plaid mini skirts, but they are way too cozy in summer and I prefer them in winter. This one got this beautiful ethnic print without being too colorful and it's airy, too. 
Furthermore look at my boots! These are probably my first 'summer' boots, I just hate wearing sandals or flip flops even though they are more comfortable to wear during hot summer days - so this is a more airy version of my beloved cowboy boots.
