How to wear the Silk Scarf

Thursday, June 30, 2016

Hi! The scarf is back. Don't worry, I am not talking about the thick chunky winter scarf, you just put in your winter box, that would be waaay too hot. This talk is about the silk scarf which is Hermès signature feature. Some of us may think of an old fine lady wearing silk scarfs, but today we youngsters do too, in new exciting ways. So go try them out and make a statement with these colorful pieces! And no, you do not have to give ca. 400€ for a 90x90cm silk scarf, so heres a tipp: staying true to Hermès? Go to Vestiaire Collective and get an almost new one for half the price, or go to Zara, they have nice ones as well!

Tell me a bedtime story

Saturday, June 25, 2016

Hi! Lets talk about our bed. On Monday mornings its the most wished for place to be, the coziest place to be, a social place to be, ok I could go on forever. The thing is many of us underestimate the importance of bedlinen. Sure a good mattress and a slatted frame is a must, but I insure you, that when you have found your perfect bedlinen, your bed experience is going to be on a higher level. I have a white bedding with pleated seams, the white color makes me feel like being in the clouds, the seams give structure. I just love it!
I hope I can help you find your favorite bedding...

Yoghurt Parfait

Thursday, June 23, 2016

Hi! 35°C here in Hamburg today and I feel like melting away... But no complains about summer, am I right? So heres the solution: instead of having your normal yoghurt with a bunch of fruit for lunch, have it iced. Like on a popsicle, as an ice cream...

What you will need:

vanilla yoghurt
fruit (I used: Banana, Orange, honeydew)
granola
honey
popsicle molds

How to proceed:

Cut the fruit in pieces.
Layer the vanilla yoghurt and the fruit until you only have ca. 1cm left. As a tip: shake the mold to get the yoghurt between the fruit and to fill up the entire mold.
Mix the granola with honey and layer it on top of the yoghurt fruit mix.
Put the popsicles where they belong and put the mold into the freezer.
Let it freeze for at least 2h. Enjoy!
