If farewells had a taste it would have been bittersweet. Writing about goodbyes is possibly my forte but no, this time i’m leaving it with nothing more than this paragraph because goodbye seems to be the hardest word. Some pictures from a farewell party taken at a warm neighborhood bar / café during my last night in Germany:

To be honest, i never fancied Stuttgart (except for the fact that The Avengers was once shot there). However, upon arriving at the neat sized city, i couldn’t help noticing the little things about the place that make you imagine how fun it would be during summer; the dancing fountain, colorful picnic baskets, honey bees busy selecting pollens from blossoming flowers . . . Then i figured how unfair it is to judge a city / country during winter – especially if it doesn’t snow. Nonetheless, here are some pictures taken at some (random) parts of the big old town i’d love to share, and my spaetzle lunch that i heart a lot!

One of the hardest challenges when it comes to fashion is to match sexc with cute, and to still look good at the same time. Not that i necessarily need or want to, but i was running out of items to wear back at my hometown and ended up pairing these two fun pieces; transforming them into a party frock. It’s always fun to shoot by our pool; especially when swirling around in this electric blue candy skirt and super killer heels that compliments the bling on my neck + finger. Keep an eye on it!

As much as i love white (so much i don’t mind wearing white from head to toe for the rest of my life; if i had to choose a color), i decided to be a bit more adventurous by popping some bright orange to my otherwise blank canvas. The process of putting this whole look together taught me just how much accessories could spice up the simplest outfit of shorts and lace. Are you a fan of bright chunky accessories? If not, maybe it’s time to give it a try!

1. This shattered window, and the comic picture that got caught in between

{because art exists everywhere in the world we live in; as long as we are attentive enough to see it, yes?}

2. This hatless chef

{because with all that dough he seems like the most skillful baker i’ve ever seen, and it reminded me that experience and passion is what makes you good at what you do in life; not just knowledge}

3. These sizzling juicy beef steaks

{because . . . i don’t have to tell you why, do i? }

4. These glass mugs behind the flickering firewoods ~

{because it was the first white gluwein i’ve ever tasted in my life}

5. This merry-go-round light garden

{because under its umbrella, spins a fantasy world}
