Test

Hi ladies, how are you? Last week, Karen got invited by River Island to attend this year's Cosmopolitan FashFest. She was allowed a plus one and have a guess whom she asked to come along!?! #bigsmile. The four day FashFest event ended with an epic fashion show on Thursday night, so it was time for us to dress up for a glamourous night out. The Search For The Dress For a while now, I've been seeing a certain style with dresses and skirts. Sometimes I would come across the term 'Flare & Fit', other times 'Hollow Cut Out'. I still haven't find out 100% what the style is called, but one thing was for sure. I really wanted to have either a skirt or dress of that make. After an intense fashion research online, I found out that Forever 21 would sell black sleevless dresses with the shape and cut. As it always is with a fashion piece online, it wasn't available in my size so I went into both London stores and tried to hunt that dress down - without any suc...

Hi ladies, do you remember my summer shoe post from a while ago? Well, a lot has happened on the shoe front ever since and I’d like to show you my latest finds and my new wardrobe. My dad has been so kind to look out for wooden crates and he got two for me. I originally planned to use them both as a book case but we’ve decided to upcycle one of them into a new home for my shoes. Due to my unusual size (UK7/8), I usually struggle buying foot wear and they are my least favourite fashion item to shop. However, recently the styles have been very appealing and seeing so many gorgeous designs on the High Street has literally drawn me inter alia into Dune and Aldo. I invested into some very stylish pairs which are all well-made and of great quality. Here they are: 1. Dune London (£59). Bought For: Everyday Use A classic pair of ballerinas is an essential in every fashionista’s wardrobe. I used to buy the £4 basic ballerina from Primark, but the quality frustratingly never lasted for more t...

How are you after Halloween night? Today's post is just a very quick OOTD. It's getting slowly but surely colder each day so I snuggled up in my cosy Stradivarius jumper and teamed it up with a colourful bangle from Lyla Loves. Hope you'll enjoy and let me know what you think about the outfit :) I’m wearing: Cosy Knittwear: Stradivarius (current season 2014, £23) Bangle: Lyla Loves (current season 2014*) Black Aztec Leggings: New Look (summer season 2012, £15) Boots: Clarks (winter season 2008, £100) Till next time and let me know what you think about the outfit. xx CAZ xx | bloglovin  |  Twitter | *PR Sample

How are you? The season has some fantastic accessories and I thought I should reveal some of the spot on trends plus where you can shop them at reasonable prices. Hope you'll enjoy and let me know which one is your favourite accessory. |1. The Blanket Wrap| Since Burberry send its models over the catwalk with a personalised blanket wrap at their latest fashion show, this accessory has become a huge trend this autumn. Blanket capes, ponchos or wraps are easy to style and a casual accessory to throw over your shoulders to keep you warm for the colder days. They are everywhere to find on the High Street: from Topshop via River Island to Urban Outfitters, they all have them in their current range. However, the leader with the most extensive range of ponchos is New Look. They have over 10 different styles with various patterns and colours and the quality is great for £19.99. Also, Stradivarius has a lovely one which is more an oversized cape than a blanket. Their capes come in caramel, ...

The leaves are coloured, the air is clear, the sky is bright blue and it's not too cold yet. I love this warm autumn weather! The lovely ladies over at  CelebLook  send me this gorgeous navy blue turn up sleeve ruched blazer* a few weeks ago and whenever I had the chance I wore it. My old boyfriend blazer from Primark, slowly but surely, falls into pieces and I've been looking for a replacement for a while now. This one from CelebLook is exactly what I was after. Navy blue is my personal autumn trend colour 2014 and the chic, yet classy blazer is made of a light material which doesn't crease the fabric when you put it into a bag. You can either wear it very casually over a Tshirt and leggings/jeans or glam up a dress. It goes with anything and it is easy to wash, so no fancy dry cleaning involved! |Navy Blue CelebLook Blazer Combined With T shirt And Leggings| I’m wearing: Navy Blue Blazer: CelebLook (current season 2014 , £11.49*) Camera Tshirt: Stradivarius (current s...

Hope you are ok and had the chance yet to enjoy today's lovely sunshine? I used the wonderful autumn weather to shoot some ootd pictures with my new LYDC shopper that I got from vinted.co.uk. I had a £20 voucher from the #MyVintedCloset campaign and I kept looking for a new bag since June. The shopper has a great size and it looks great. I think it works really well with my New Look Poncho (no scarf!) and my leather boots. Hope you'll enjoy and let me know what you think of the outfit :) I’m wearing: Poncho: New Look (current season 2014, £19.99) Cognac Leather Shoes: Clarks (season 2009 £100) Belt: Mango (season 2010, £15) Jeans: ASOS (season 2013, £30) Bag: LYDC via Vinted.co.uk (gift voucher £20) Long Shirt: Uniqlo (season 20014, £20) Thank you so much for reading today's post. Have you bought a blanket wrap yet? What do you think of the trend? How would you style it? Till next time and let me know what you think about the outfit. xx CAZ xx | bloglovin ...

Summer has officially ended and to say good-bye to the season, I'd like to share my last summery OOTD for this year. Earlier this month I went to see my lovely friend Thursa in Weston Super-Mare. We went for lunch first and afterwards to the beach (Sand Bay beach). The weather was gorgeous and the beach filled with walkers and cute dogs. Thursa brought her little pooch Bear along and we had a wonderful time. Hope you'll enjoy! I’m wearing: Flip Flops: New Look (season 2006, £16) Dress: New Look (season 2010 £25) Belt: Dorothy Perkins (season 2009, £15) Necklace: Alexi Accessories (season 2014, £46.50*) Bag: Dorothy Perkins (season 2009, £30) Watch: Olivia Burton (season 20014, £69) Till next time and let me know what you think about the outfit :) xx CAZ xx | bloglovin  |  Twitter | * PR sample.

The lovely team from  vinted.co.uk  reached out to me and asked if I'd like to be one of their top bloggers to support their #MyVintedCloset campaign. This campaign is all about autumn outfits, must haves and how to organise your wardrobe for the coming season. Of course I jumped at the chance as this is a very exclusive opportunity for me and also it is fun to work on diverse fashion related posts. So in today's post I'd like to share my holiday OOTDs. Expect fine British High Street fashion in combination with stunning German scenery. Let's start in the Erzgebirge  Fortress   Königstein. I'm wearing: Polka Dot Dress: New Look (summer season 2011, £16) Bag: Michael Kors (£99) Pony Hair Shoes: Taschka (current 2014 season, £125) Watch: Olivia Burton (current 2014 season £69) |OOTD 2: Berlin Uniqlo Flagship Store| I'm wearing: Shoes: Onitsuka Tiger Mexico Vulc (SS2014 £69) Jeans: ASOS (spring 2014 £30) Bag: Michael Kors (£99) Blouse: Primark (summer season ...

A very well-known job interview question is ‘Where do you see yourself in five years’ time?’ I find this question difficult to answer; after all I’m not a fortune-teller nor can I predict the future. It is of course important to know where to go, but also where you come from. That’s why I prefer the solid past rather than the unstable and fickle future, so I can learn from it. However, when I went home to Germany last week, I felt like I travelled back into my old life of the past five years. The years between 2009 and today marked a new chapter in my life. I had just come back from my Erasmus year at Lancaster University and had moved to Leipzig in the beautiful county of Saxony. For the next four years and this has been the place where I lived the longest in my life so far, Leipzig became my home. I worked very hard on my uni career and at the end of my course I was rewarded with two first class degrees and my first job as a research assistant, all with the aim to create a solid basi...
