Did I plan an entire trip through eastern Germany Did I plan an entire trip through eastern Germany after seeing one single Pinterest picture? Yes, yes I did.

Behold the view that made me go to Bremen. From the corner of Wüstestätte and Marterburg you get a gorgeous look at the small, winding streets that lead into the colorful Schnoor neighborhood. Once home to many a medieval fisherman, today it is a touristy place with many pubs, restaurants, souvenir shops and small business selling all kinds of haberdasheries. Efteling vibes, for sure. 

📍 Schnoor Viertel, Bremen, Germany 🇩🇪

Cologne photodump 🇩🇪 This summer I went sol Cologne photodump 🇩🇪

This summer I went solotripping through Germany with their €9 month-long public transport ticket. I've already been told that they will NOT repeat that offer this year 🥲 But I had my fun! First stop: Cologne!

If you saw my stories today then you already know that I lost pretty much all of my photos and videos from that trip. Here's what I could salvage from my DSLR and Lightroom library. More details and pictures are in the "Germany 3" highlight on my profile! 😊

And since I no longer post on my blog, I'm going to post a list of my favorite things here. You can save this post if you want to find it again later! 😌

COLOGNE FAVORITES:
1. Watch the sunset from the Rheinpromenade 
2. Instagram pictures at Fishmarkt
2. Count the Picasso's in Museum Ludwig
3. Lunch/Brunch & shopping in Belgisches Viertel
4. Dinner in Südstadt and @ais.baby for dessert
5. Picknick in the Botanical Garden
6. Coffee at @ernstkaffeeroester & @thecoffeegangkoeln 
8. Pause in the Fort X rose garden
7. Walk around Media-Park and Innerer Grüngürtel for cig city vibes
8. Admire the crane buildings along Im Zollhafen

Casual Style, Spring/Summer, Style · 3 September 2012

Mint and cobalt

Wearing: Francesca’s top, Zara jeans, shoes without a name and earrings from a boutique in DC
Hi everyone! Wow. It’s been a while. Work has been killing my me-time, so I haven’t been around the blogger block that much lately. And those rare moments I wasn’t selling clothes, I was spending some much needed time in the sun/city with the boyfriend or my friends. I’m now enjoying the first of my seven days off and I’m packing my bags again to spend the night in Leuven (near Brussels) to visit a friend who is, on this very moment, sweating over her last  exam. There’s a candle buring for her and my fingers are hurting because I kept them crossed all morning. As a thank you, I hope she’s taking me to the Quetzal chocolate bar near her studio. That place is heaven on earth! And I think we can both use a good dose of sugar, haha.
For me, the fall brandwagon may continue to wobble along the dusty wheatfield road a little longer because I am NOT ready to let go of my summer clothes. I have been wanting to pair my mint jeans with something cobalt since the beginning of the mint craze, but apart from the cobalt tee my mom has, there was nothing bright blue to be found around this house. That was untill I stepped into Francesca’s and found this cheer peplum top on the sale rack. Sheer + peplum + cobalt = perfection, so I bought it for a whopping $7 and it’s been nothing but love between us ever since. 

Happy Labour day to my American readers,
I hope you are all up for a fantastic week!
