March favourites

I was thinking a lot about what the hottest things that are on my wish list for this month may be...

So I finally decided that these 6 things will make the race. This collage already looks pretty much spring themed I find ☻

1. Happy Human Bean. How cute is this tee from Barefoot Babes? Honestly I love all of the shirts by this lovely brand, all with a positive vibrant message.

2. This chinese inspired spring jacket from Mango's current spot with Langley Fox is so super duper pretty, I just hope to get my hands on it!

3. Cutest coffee mug from Lagerhaus! Unfortunately they do not ship to Germany ) :
4. Just pre-ordered this book "food pharmacy"about healthy eating, friendly bacteria, anti-inflammatory superfoods etc. Can't wait to read it.

5. Vegan eyeshadow "white cloud" by uoga uoga (means: Berry Berry in lithuanian).

6. Ohh how can someone not like this? I mean, look at the ingredients: COCONUT!!! DRAGON FRUIT!! ACAI!! LAVENDER!! & ROSE!! ♥♥ I bet this smells amazing! ♥♥ The brand is Truly Organic and the products are vegan, organic, gluten free, cruelty free, chemical free .... I would love to try this one out, they fulfill my personal standards of cosmetics.

Spring, I've found you

 Hi everybody! ❥

I think I am in love! His name is S p r i n g!
I am so glad to see the sun and all that little spring flowers after the long, cold and wet winter.
I also bought some fresh tulips and other spring flowers for the appartment, flowers make everthing prettier. Feeling so happy about the warmer time to come!

February mood

The last days of february are already here and I wanna share some photos of this month with you. I've been really busy lately, because of work and exams, no time for the fun things in life at the moment...

A little pleasure during all the exam stress was a visit at my favourite café. It's the meet-up place for me and my friend Janet, where we can forget all about time and just talk, eat cake, drink tea and coffee with soy milk.

Cozy afternoon with some tea, notebooks, old letters and a book I bought in Paris last month.

Some books and postcards I bought this month. I am really into nature things lately.

To bring some spring into our appartment, I bought some flowers at the market after work. Makes everything look more colourful and the scent is amazing!

Saw the first snowdrops on a sunday afternoon walk around the town. The first signs of spring, yay!

January favourites

Hi lovely people, it's time for my first favourites list of this year (I know I have neglected this section a bit in 2016, but I wanna make it better this year ☻). I hope you enjoy it ( :

1. I am in need of a new bowl for my smoothies and nicecream. Since I indulged myself with a highspeed blender a week ago, I am mixin' and mixin' and mixin'. So this bowl from Bloomingville would be a nice one to own. The colours let me think of spring already . . .

2. Acai Powder. I am in need of that! I wanna make Acai-Bowls myself! This one is from Pure Raw.

3. Since I cut my hair much shorter before christmas I don't need that much shampoo anymore. BUT I place importance on natural, bio, vegan, cruelty free shampoo. I found this one from the brand biolu via Ecco Verde. They have several sorts, for dry hair, anti dandruff, even hand & face soap and oilive oil soap. I think I will give the daily care shampoo a try.

4. Aw, this one is something I contemplated with for some time now and now it's on sale! Ok, I must admit that I already ordered this one! It's a huipil from the brand called Hiptipico. It's an ethical fashion brand based in Guatemala. The bags and clothes are handmade by mayan artisans. Go and check out their site, there are so many beautiful things. I think it's so important to support eco and ethical fashion!

5. Green clay face mask by Akamuti, also via Ecco Verde. Green clay is known to detoxify your skin and to remove impurities. An extra treat for sensitive skin.

Travel Diary: Paris

 It has been a little bit quiet here I must admit.
But today I am coming up with a new travel diary post. The beginning of the new year started with a little city trip for me and the boy: We went to Paris!

~ ☯ ☼ ☽ ~

I already went there in 2004, but this time I discovered it in a different and new way. It was cold, and january is maybe not the best season to explore a city, but we were lucky with the weather.

In three days we saw a lot: The Muséum national d'histoire naturelle, the jardin des plantes, Notre Dame, The Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur, the Montmartre, Moulin Rouge, Père Lachaise graveyard [to see the grave of one of my favourite singers ever: Jim Morrison], Musée du Louvre, Shakespeare & Company bookshop, where I bought a few books, some vintage shops and cute restaurants and cafés.

It was such a great time, I hope to return later this year.

And here are some restaurant/café recommendations for all the vegan people

1. Hank Burger ♥ The place for yummy burgers (obviously).

2. Wild and The Moon ♥ Lovely place for breakfast (try the acai bowl) and little snacks or just to work on your laptop and sip on a smoothie or a hot drink.

3. Végét Halles ♥ Burgers, Hummus, plates with veggies...there's a big selection of yummy things.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year, y'all! I hope the new year will be full of inspiration, adventures and good karma!!!

November favourites

I really find this november favourites collection looks more like a summer wish-list than anything else ( : I did not arrive in the cold time so far, so my collection looks pretty bloomy and colourful.

1. I discovered this book "The Healthy Life" by Jessica Sepel while scrolling through amazon. The title caught my attention and also the content looks pretty interesting. It's all about how to nourish your body right to live a healthier life.
2. Wonderful painted hair brush by Free People. I am a huge fan of this brand, also the prices are high, though. This would be an eyecather in the bathroom...
3. Yoga mat by "La Vie Bohème Yoga", it's the Fiji yoga mat and super duper pretty...
4. Tea by "Traditional Medicinicals". Honesly I would like to try all varieties of teas they offer.
5. Really wanna try the products from "Nourish Organic". Not only the packaging looks pretty nice, also all content is organic, cruelty free, not tested on animals and nearly all of the products are vegan.

Octobers to remember

Hi lovelies, my favourite month comes to an end now. Autumn is my favourite season, when you bundle up in cozy big sweaters, a long scarf wrapped around your neck, taking your favourite autumn boots for a walk in the colourful forest. The seasonal change is just magical. Yes, autumn is so inspiring ! I got back into photography now, I am so lazy during the summer months. Now I feel like I am more energized. The smoky  and crisp autumn air clears the mind and gives me fresh ideas.

I hope you're all having a beautiful autumn.

Colourful leaves in the forest.

My cosy little kitchen.

It's pumpkin season!

Autumn fruits: Loving pears, appels and pumpkins. I bought a Butternut and a Hokkaido, I love the taste of both. I am also planning to make myself a spiced pumpkin chai. That's what I love about pumpkins, you can make literally EVERYTHING out of them.

My favourite mug, always filled with hot tea. Also this matcha cookie from the bio store was so so delicious ! I indulged myself with this delicacy after my workout in the gym.

This wonderful autumn letter made me really happy. It contained the yummiest tea, a cool vintage Merian magazine about Sweden with a beautiful illustrated landmap and a selfmade woven wandhanger. Thank you, Friederike ! ♥

Pumpkins as far as the eye can look. I visited a pumpkin farm today and bought some little baby boo's, which I've never tried before. I am courious what they'll taste like.
Oh - and isn't the big horror sharped pumpkin perfect for Halloween? I really like it.

All photos are taken by me.
