The summer is here and with it come long hot days at the beach and warm Barbecue nights. It’s truly the time of creating unforgettable moments from lavish weddings to summer birthday parties, prom and of course the races at Royal Ascot. Usually for all these occasions you’ll spend ages looking for THE perfect dress, when really, there’s one which will fit perfectly for all of these events, making sure you’ll always look fabulous: the Blooming Rose Skater Dress from Krisp Clothing. The dress has been living in my wardrobe for a while now and it took me a lot of patience and self-discipline to not share the excitement for it straight away. I wanted to check first if the dress really was an all-rounder. So I wore it not only for a meal out with my parents, teamed up with a chic grey buttoned up jacket from H&M, but also strolled around Malmö whilst on holidays. Krisp Clothing is an online retailer with a very purse-friendly fashion collection: you’ll find anything from celebrity-ins

When you're on a city break exploring town centres and wandering around streets all day, you want your outfit to be casual. Depending on the weather most of us also make sure that our outfit is practical  - and since we are on a holiday - stylish. When I relaxed in Copenhagen a few weekends ago, I decided that my recently bought Oasis Anchor Blouse and khaki green Zara trousers make a perfect match for an all day out. Let me tell you all about the style! You may have seen my Oasis Anchor Blouse in my Daydreaming in Kensington post and it has been an absolute favourite of mine ever since. The piece has a super flattering cut and the print of anchors all over is so cute. The blouse is not only ideal for the office, but versatile and easy to style which makes it a great fashion piece to wear with literally anything. The material is light and airy for the summer, and in winter I can see it peaking under a jumper. For a summery day out in Copenhagen, I decided to combine the blouse wit

Why does time always go by so fast when you have fun? Alex and I were asking ourselves this question a lot when our last day in Copenhagen arrived. Whilst Mille returned to work, we spent the last remaining hours strolling around town, which included a visit to the Hotel Chocolat Cafe, a little shopping haul at Moss Copenhagen and a relaxed chill out on a bench at the harbourside.  Day 3: After a little lie in, we checked out at 10am and hit town. This time though we both had to carry a heavy backback and I tell you, that I absolutely hate travelling with a backpack. Those things are heavy for no reason and they do tend to fill up far too quickly. Backpacks are so not stylish and they are so odd to handle, don't you think? Luckily we took turns and if one of us wanted to go into a shop, the other would look after the belongings. When I'm abroad, I always like to explore the fashion scene of other countries. I love to discover new shops, check out what kind of styles they p

From my previous travel to Copenhagen in 2007, I had tonnes of Swedish Kroner left over which had lived in my drawers ever since. I thought they may feel a bit homesick and would love to return to their home country, so we planned to spent those Kroner on our Copenhagen Weekender trip.  For around £7.50 pp I bought train tickets to Malmö and within 35 minutes, the train "flew" us over the Øresund Bridge (Baltic Sea) to Sweden. My friend Anna, whom I met during my time studying at an  International Language School in London awaited us at the central station. I had not seen her in six years and though last time we promised each other it won't be so long again for our next meet up, it kind of did. It felt even more emotional when we spotted each other and hugged for a long time. What a fantastic welcome to Sweden! Day 2: It is incredible how well Copenhagen and Malmö are connected. Within minutes you can be in an entire new country! Though growing up in Germany with neighb

Since I fell unconditionally in love with the UK in 1999, my history of travels has been....let's say it very moderate and uninspiring. In the last ten years or so I have had only two "real" holidays, namely to Iceland and to the Canary Islands, but apart from that it was either travelling around the British Isles (fun but exhausting) or flying home to Germany to see my parents (fun, stressful, exhausting) ...those visits which I don't really count as holidays. Having lived in London for seven months non stop and not having left the city ever since, a get-away was much needed. There's been far too much drama and happenings lately so it was time to pack my suitcase, leave all the drama behind and fly off to Copenhagen. I visited the Danish capital years ago and back then it was only for a day trip, so it felt refreshing to return to Copenhagen and spend more time in this beautiful city. Alex and I decided to take the late night flight on Friday after work, which ne
