burger-mountain-walk

Created this post spontanously on a Sunday we decided to go a little up the Swiss mountains and enjoy the fist Spring sun whilst having some delicious food and followed by a long walk on the, already melting, snow!
Have a great start of the week. I'm happy like crazy with this awesome weather!! Enjoy :)

poetry in a black blazer and wide jeans

Love never fails.
But then again, sometimes love has to put boxing gloves on and be tough in order to survive. Sometimes, you have to do the harder thing — the thing where you let someone grow on their own.

ciuri ciuri

It's raining today, but we don't care!! Bare legs, flowers and a cheeky smile to welcome SPRING! (and for those who wanna know, "ciuri" means flower in Sicilian dialect)

Matt & Nat TOUJOURS bag @the market

 You surely remember our very last post from last week in which we were telling you more about the vegan brand Matt & Nat and in which Melania introduced you to their BRAVE backpack in black. If you haven't seen it, just click here to view.
As we already mentioned, we picked two bags from their actual collection, so this is the second one. We loved its bright green color specially for the warm season. It's such a happy and pleasant color!
I'm very happy with this bag, quite rightly called TOUJOURS... "Toujours" meaning "always" in French seems to me the perfect name for it...as it's size, great quality, the inside compratments and the zip opening/closing from both sides, make this bag a practical and beautiful solution for EVERYDAY ...next to the fact that it's completely made of eco-friendly materials!! I've been using it lots already, here I went to the market with. For this occasion I chose a super simple all-in-black look combined with a green-black-tartan shirt and a green scarf. I hope you like the photos. Oh..and don't forget to visit www.mattandnat.ca and choose the perfect vegan leather bag for yourself! ;)
Have a lovely day..sending much love ..and thanks for reading ♥

Matt & Nat - vegan leather backpack

Hey everybody! Remember when we discovered the vegan brand MATT & NAT? We had bought this cute camera bag made of vegan leather (see post here) and since we've been discovering more and more about this brand we fell in love with.
Their name, Matt & Nat, stands for MAT(T)ERIAL + NATURE. As a vegan brand they only use eco-friendly material and of course no animal products at all. Even the linings inside all MATT & NAT bags are made out of 100% recycled plastic bottles!!! Hellooooo... I call that LOVE! Love towards nature and all living creatures :) So when we buy Matt & Nat, we're not only buying a beautiful bag...we're also looking after our planet. Have a look at the Matt & Nat website You can find their story, their values or discover their living beautifully blog ...I promise you'll find a statement of love and lots of inspiration!
We had the big chance to get two bags from their actual collection, which you can find here. This is one of our picks; the BRAVE backpack in black (it's sold out in black, but you can find it in other colors here), the second one we will show you on here soon ;)
We really hope you like the photos... Spring has quite suddenly hit Europe and we were just starting to enjoy this fine weather when taking these shots during a stroll through our city.

double-pois

Mixing prints is a big trend and one that we like lots. However, mixing the same print in different ways is in our opinion a great option too... that's why we mixed the dots-jumpsuit with the dots-cardigan which gave Melania an even bigger flair of "je ne sais quoi"... the cardigan's color is matching the jumpsuits dots' color, all rounded up by the color black which is almost always welcome in an outfit and which in this case matched the cardigans dots' color! ;)
Have a lovely day and week ♥

Home made collages


I started the new year with a new decoration at home. I had fun doing some collages and creating kind of paintings that you can hang on the wall or place where you want. IKEA helped me in my work with a black shelving unit(Expedit),with a lamp(MÅNLJUS) and with a set of three buttons-wall decoration(GRÄDDIG). The remaining pictures are of my production, I only bought the frames from IKEA.

Do you like the result? I love it!
