2021 Holiday Gift Guide for Her
As tradition has it, I am coming late with the 2021 holiday gift guide for Her. While I already got all my Christmas shopping done – and even opened some of the presents already, oops! – I though it might be nice to share some easy ideas in case you still need to get something special for your loved ones, but you […]
My running tips + How I ran 10km this summer
At the end of July, I ran a 10km race; my very first official race. It’s by no means my first 10km I ran – I used to be very sporty and would also run a lot and quite faster than I do nowadays about five years ago. But, it is my first 10km since that very active life from […]
What I got from the Chanel Factory 5 Collection
I am definitely not a Chanel-obsessed kind of person – even though I do have their classic flap top of my wishlist. However, with the Channel Factory 5 collection out I was intrigued to get my hands on some of the items. The several pop-ups around Berlin that I kept walking by, definitely also helped. So with that, I thought […]
Thoughts on work and life balance
I haven’t been too active on the blog lately. This is the biggest “writing” break I took so far. While it wasn’t triggered by anything in particular, I was a little exhausted of doing a million things. Working, taking courses, writing on the blog, applying for jobs and interviewing… and it just felt right to put it all on pause […]
How I bought my first luxury bag
How I bought my first luxury bag – I have been wanting to write this post for a long time, I just did not have material until very recently (joke’s on me). In all seriousness, I am beyond excited to share all the details of my first luxury bag purchase in this blog post. I will be talking about everything […]
Book Review – Gut: The inside story of our body’s most underrated organ
As I shared in my 2021 reading list post, I have a goal for this year: to make my way through the 21 books on the list. That amounts to reading about two books a month, which seems doable. To keep myself accountable I thought of also sharing reviews of the books as I finish them and hopefully also inspire […]
21 books to read in 2021 – My 2021 Reading List
I have to start this post by saying that the name of the post “21 books to read in 2021” was not planned. It just ended up this way. I actually had 22 books on my 2021 reading list but I was too eager to get started on it, so I read Bob Iger’s “The Ride of a Lifetime” in […]
The books I read in 2020
Here we are, closing the year and I am finally sharing the books I read in 2020 – because yes, I managed to read a few; not many, but a few. My goal this year was to read 12 books. Well, while I am closing the year with only 8 books and a half, I am still quite pleased with […]
2020 Holiday Gift Guide for Him
I take my Christmas gifting duty seriously. I absolutely love gifting to my loved ones and of course, every year I spend hours doing research for getting the perfect gift(s) for my partner. I usually end up reading through dozens of gift guides for men every year, and I always end up thinking how predictable they are and how little […]
2020 Holiday Gift Guide for Her
Is it a bit late for a Christmas gift guide? It might be. Have I already gotten all my Christmas gift shopping in and now I am just comfortably talking? I might. Nonetheless, we are only halfway through our Advent calendars so if you still want to get something special for your loved ones, you have plenty of time. As you […]
The Boys Club – Book Review
I just finished reading “The Boys Club” by Erica Katz and it left me a bit shook. I was super excited to read the book, expecting a „Devil Wears Prada“ meets „Suits“ kind of fun and entertaining story, but it took a bit of a turn in terms of the impression it left on me. Allow me to explain it: […]
My fall wishlist
It’s fall and all I want to do is curl up under a blanket, read, wear cozy sweaters, big socks and dring hot chocolate. While I get to that, I thought I would quickly put together a short wish list for fall with all the things that have been either catching my eye lately or that I’ve been longing for. […]
Laser hair removal – All you need to know
Laser hair removal is a procedure that is gaining more and more popularity. Given that it’s a rather costly and lengthy procedure there are many factors to weigh in and many questions that one might have. Since I’ve embarked on this journey around 7-8 years ago, I thought I would share my perspective on it. I also wrote a more detailed […]
How I styled my home work desk
I wanted to write this post for a very looong time. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably know that quite a few months ago I have installed my own workspace at home. By now I am absolutely in love with it, but it took me quite a while to get there. For a long time I disregarded the […]
2018 Favourites – What I’ve loved doing
This is not going to be your typical “favourites of the year” list, full of beauty products, clothing items and other stuff I bought, but rather a round-up of things that I have loved doing and that I plan to keep on doing in the future. So, I thought about putting together a list of a few actions that I […]
