Hey Fashionistas,

I can’t believe this year is almost over. Where did it go? Well, New Years is still upon us. We are spending New Years in Arizona which you might already know if you read my last blog post and Christmas we spent in Los Angeles with my husband’s family.

Lisbon Travel Tips

Hey Fashionistas,

Lisbon the capital of Portugal is definitely worth a visit. My husband and I visited Lisbon a couple of years ago in December. Visiting a city in the off season is something I strongly recommend not only is it more affordable to fly the hotels are cheaper and city is less crowded. The temperatures were surprisingly mild compared to other cities in December.

Last minute Stocking Stuffer

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Amopé. The opinions and text are all mine.

Hey Fashionistas,

With the holidays quickly approaching it can be difficult to find the right gift. All of the company Christmas parties coming up has me thinking how difficult it can be to come up with a nice present that’s to everyone's liking.

I recently got back from Germany and we have a tradition during the holidays. From December 1st to December 24th we open one small gift every day. When I was a child my mom used to put small things in her self-made advent calendar. It made the countdown to Christmas Eve so exciting since every day we received a small gift.

On the go with Summer’s Eve

This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com on behalf of Simply Summer’s Eve®

Hey Fashionistas,

I am one of those people who escape during New Years. My husband and myself got a couple of days off and we traditionally take road trips over the course of these 3 days. The past two years we visited Utah and Northern California. This year we are going to discover Arizona. We like to get away from the crowds and have a New Years just for the two of us. So what is needed for a trip like this?

Gold Gym's Hollywood Review

Hey Fashionistas,

Being active and having a balanced lifestyle is important to me. That doesn't mean that I don’t eat junk food but we really try to limit that. Plus, even though you are craving a burger there is always a “healthy” alternative. You can, for example, get the protein style at In ‘n out and an unsweetened ice tea. At the end of the day, it comes down to the choices you make.

Winter outfit idea

Hey Fashionistas,

Temperatures really dropped lately and it gets dark so early. Everything is not really to my liking. The only thing that I enjoy are the oversized knitted cardigans and cute beanies you can wear. This season I love everything knitt. I recently got this super cute rust colored cardigan and cat beanie.

Must have accessory Sunglasses

Hey Fashionistas,

What is a blogger’s favorite accessory? A designer bag? Close but the answer is sunglasses. Next time when you're out and about watch those bloggers and you realized they all wear sunglasses. Maybe because they always look amazing on flatlays ( a bunch of products lined up on a table), or because they will give every outfit this sparkly it-factor. I am not sure which one it is exactly but I won’t leave the house without my pair anymore.

Fall Makeup with Finding Ferdinand Palette

Hey  Fashionistas,

For some reason, I am really feeling fall this year. I already took off my full decoration, I can finally turn on my little twinkle lights because it gets dark pretty early. I also ended up buying a beautiful salt lamp. Every night we turn on the light and it just gives the room a cozy vibe.

Sporty Fall Outfit

Hey Fashionistas,

Hello October! Fall officially started and I am ready for the colder seasons! Well, I am saying this because I love wearing knitted sweaters, cute scarfs, and fluffy boots but as soon as the temperatures drop I start complaining.

College Football with Dr Pepper + Coupon Code

Brought to you by Dr Pepper® and Albertsons Companies.

Hey Fashionistas,

As you already know, I am a girl who loves sports. Growing up in Germany made me love soccer and hockey, and when I moved to the U.S., about 4 years ago, I fell in love with baseball and football. A big reason I am such a big football fan is because of my husband. He is a huge football fan, and since it is very entertaining I got sucked right into it.

Refresh your home with alio

Hey Fashionistas,

There is nothing more welcoming than a good smelling home after a long day at the office. I was recently gifted by alio. This company was so kind to send me their essential kit which contains a scented pouch, auto freshener and the diffuser with reeds. By the way, this is a beautiful housewarming gift or just a great addition if you want to make someone happy.

Trip to Joshua national park

Hey Fashionistas,

Nature always surprises me - in a good way. My husband and I love going to national parks and discover nature. A couple of weeks ago we visited Joshua National Park. This wasn’t our first time and I can guarantee you this also won't be the last time.

My recent trip to Mexico with my white Reeboks

I received free product or compensation from Reebok. Affiliate links are included in this post, I’ll be compensated if someone clicks on an affiliate link and makes a purchase.

Hey Fashionistas,

I just got back from my recent trip to Mexico. As always I enjoy visiting this country. During our four day trip, we did a lot of fun things like horse riding, enjoying the cuisine and hanging out with my husband’s family - but mostly horse riding. Temperatures were high and so was the humidity so I wanted to wear something casual, fun and airy.

Day Trip to Salvation Mountain

Hey Fashionista,

Most of you have heard of it, most of you have visit that place before. I'm talking about Salvation Mountain. This colorful mountain is about 4-hour drive from Los Angeles and the 1-hour drive from Palm Springs. We visited this place a couple of weeks ago on our way to Palm Springs. It's crazy that in the middle of nowhere there's a colorful Mountain that you can just visit. It's super instagrammable so course I had to take some shots here.

How to style a casual sporty look

Hey Fashionistas,

The weekend basically starts today for me because I am taking a mini vacation and I am heading to Mexico. We are going to celebrate my husband’s grandmas B-day! Before heading out I have to post one of my favorite sporty casual looks.

Active wear is always on vogue especially in Los Angeles. Yoga pants, running shoes and sports bra everywhere you look. I took the approach to create a casual outfit with a sporty vibe. My entire outfit is mostly from Bershka - yay you can order online now!

Health Benefits of drinking water from Copper Pitcher

Hey Fashionistas,

You all know I am a total makeup addict. I love me a blinding highlight or a romantic eye makeup. I own a billion lipsticks and I love each and every shade. Makeup, in my opinion, is great to enhance your natural beauty but how do you keep your skin looking healthy?

For instance, a great skin care regimen helps, never go to sleep with your makeup on, exercise and eating healthy. I could check them all off. I religiously use my skin care products and I have an overall healthy lifestyle. But what also keeps your skin looking young and your body going is water. Our body needs water to function right and we can enhance water by simply using a Copper Pitcher.

Benefits of Coconut Oil

Hey Fashionistas,

Coconut oil is my all time favorite beauty secret. Well, I guess by now it is not really a secret anymore. People are obsessed with coconut oil, for a good reason. I recently came across Kapuluan. This brand sells raw organic coconut oil for skin and hair. They were also so kind to send me their products to try them out! What I love about this brand is that they plant a coconut tree for every item sold. This is just amazing, isn’t it?!

Mermaid Makeup Tutorial

Hey Fashionistas,

I was recently gifted by Influenster and Maybelline with the amazing Mini City Pallette. The palette comes in a bunch of different colors but I received the Girl's Night Glimmer. The entire palate has shimmery, glittery shades. So if you are not into glitter this palette is not for you.

IdealLean Workout Supplements Review

Hey Fashionistas,

I haven’t talked much about it on my blog but working out and living a healthy lifestyle plays a big part in our lives. My husband and I are very active we play golf on the weekends and during the week we stay fit by doing some HIIT (high-intensity interval training). We both don’t have a GYM membership instead we are working out in our backyards.

When I tell someone I am working out at home, they are usually of the opinion that it is not as effective. I have to strongly disagree because there are a lot of great workout programs available online. Since I started doing HIIT I see great results. Of course, I am also taking workout supplements because they help to enhance my workout while helping my body to recuperate faster.

Currently, I am using supplements from IdealLean. This brand decided to specialize on women meaning they have workout supplements tailored to women but that doesn't mean that your significant other can’t drink it. Today, I want to share with you the products I am using to enhance my workout. I also have a coupon code for you so don't forget to use code FITCREW to get 10% off your entire order!!

Moschino x Sephora is launching somewhere in August but I got the details!

Pretty in Pink

Hey Fashionistas,

Pink is my color as you might have noticed. The color is bright, fun and female. Plus, summer is meant for bright colors and I am here to show you how you can style them.

This outfit is all about rose details and the color pink. I am wearing a body with a rose print all over it. I love adding prints to my look because it elevates your outfit and it adds dimensions. At the beginning, I wasn't a huge fan of bodysuits but I learned to love them and now I can’t stop wearing them. Maybe you have the problem with a different clothing item - well I encourage you to just give it a try.

Spoil your cat with Meow Mix

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of The J.M. Smucker Company. The opinions and text are all mine.

Hey Fashionistas and Cat Lovers,

If you have been following me for a while and read my blog posts you might have noticed that I am obsessed with my cat! Tetris came to our family due to an unfortunate accident. Her mom passed away when Tetris was only 2 days old. Long story short she was the only one who made it from the litter. We bottle fed her, we brushed her and we helped her use the restroom. When she finally opened her eyes, she saw us - two human beings, or even better mommy and daddy. My husband and I have a very strong bond with our cat, as weird as that might sound to some people, she is our little fur-baby! We treat her like our child and that includes teaching her what not to do and, of course, lots of cuddling. By the way, our cat loves to test her limits!

How to elevate your summer look

Hey Fashionists,

We survived the heat wave that was sweating up LA for the past two weeks. By the way, you definitely know when it’s hot when your cat is sleeping in the shower. We even went to the beach to realize it was freaking hot there too but temperatures are back to being normal.

As you know I am not a friend of cold weather and I prefer hot weather anytime. So let the sunshine out!

Summer Fun with Dr Pepper

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Dr Pepper®. The opinions and text are all mines.

Hi Fashionistas,

Although I was born and raised in Germany, cold weather does not suit me. In Los Angeles it's sunny most of the year, but no better time for the beach than summer. I love the beach. My father taught me since I was a little girl to swim and till this day it's one thing I can't live without. Swimming and tanning are one of my favorite activities at the beach but no better time is spent there without some great friends and my favorite soft drink Dr Pepper. Although I try to cut down on the sugar intake Dr Pepper is the only thing I can't live without. That is the reason I was more than thrilled when Dr Pepper asked me to share with you my fun summer beach hangout tips.

How to Keep Your Hair Hydrated in the Summer Heat

Hey Fashionistas,

I said it before and I will say it again. Just like skin care, hair care plays an important role in my life. As you know I cut my hair a few month ago because it was so damaged and dry. Using heat tools almost daily and coloring my hair is not the best way to keep hair looking strong unless you have the right products.

T3 Hair Care Essentials

Hi Fashionistas,

Summertime means vacation time! Kids are out of school, the temperatures are constantly increasing and you booked your next vacay. I hate packing and I usually do it a day before I leave but it usually ends up in a big mess because I want to take way too many things. I am pretty sure every woman works like that you are going on vacation for 5 days but your outfits are saying you go for at least a month!

My Favorite Two-Piece

Hey Fashionistas,

Happy Humpday! The temperatures here in Los Angeles are finally climbing up and it's  starting to feel like summer! I just recently heard that the temperatures will rise to triple digits!!! WHAT!

It is going to be hot but I don’t think we are heading to the beach just yet instead we are heading to the golf course. A while ago my husband and I started playing golf, and we both love it! Plus you are outside! On Sunday, as you might know, is Father's Day so no time for the beach either.

What to wear to a Baseball Game

Hat: Cooper and Mays || Bodysuit: Forever 21 || Short: H&M || Sneakers: Puma || Jeans Jacket: H&M || Dodger Bag: Dooney & Bourke

Hey Fashionistas,

It's time for Dodgers baseball! I love going to baseball games - as you might have noticed. My husband and I love the LA Dodgers. In Germany, baseball is pretty unknown but I remember going to my first Dodgers game and I immediately fell in love with the sport. I love the atmosphere and the fun you can have while you're watching the game. Some people think baseball is boring because grown up men run from pillow to pillow and try to catch a ball. When it comes to me I grew up watching sports - ice hockey, soccer whatever so I am used to seeing grown men run around. I love baseball because each team has a plan a way to pitch to each player and I love the methodical way in which this game is played.

How to style a Leather Jacket

Hey Fashionistas,

I'm back from my Cancun vacation and it was absolutely breathtaking. Currently, I am working on a little video that captures our entire trip to Mexico. In Mexico, we had to endure 90-degree weather whereas in Los Angeles it's quiet cooler. For that reason, I like to cover up with a leather jacket.

Why you need to use essential oils

Hey Fashionistas,

You guys know that I love oils. I was recently gifted with three oils. A face oil, a vitamin oil, and an eye oil. The company Healing Natural Oils is selling fantastic all natural oils that you can easily use to nourish your face.

I am using the face oil mostly in the night. It does not feel heavy or sticky. What I love most about this oil is that it instantly absorbs into my skin, leaving no residue. It smells fantastic and it is really lightweight. The ingredients are all natural and this oil contains jojoba oil, Argan Oil, chia seed oil, grape oil and other nourishing ingredients.

I designed my own heels

Hey Fashionistas,

I hope you guys have been having a great week! I feel like time is flying, in less than 2 weeks I will be on my vacation. So for a few days, I have to leave my little cat behind, which makes me kinda sad because I worry way too much about her and her well-being. I hope she will be alright! Now, let’s talk about some happy news.

I was able to create and design my own shoes! Sounds crazy, I know! Shoes of Prey is a company that gives you the ability to design your own shoe. This could be everything from flats, to heels to boots. As a shoe lover I was extremely happy and at the same time overwhelmed by the huge amount of fabrics, textures, and details. I created the shoes with the help of my husband. He has a pretty good understanding when it comes to fashion! Although it takes time and dedication to create the perfect shoe for your own taste the results just blew my expectations.

Wooden Sunglasses

Hey Fashionistas,

Happy Friday! Now, it is time to relax and enjoy the weekend! I still have a lot of work to do so I will be on my computer most of my Saturday. I have to run some errands but on Sunday we can finally relax since my husband works every Saturday. The weather forecast is about 80 degrees and sunny, this calls for a beach day or a nice workout.

The Perfect Mother's Day Gift

Hey Fashionistas, 

I did not put together a gift guide for mom's for this upcoming Mother's Day because I have been so busy lately. I started a new job and at the beginning, it always takes some time to get used to everything. The drive is also taking longer but that's just because I life in LA and everyone has a car. So a 10-mile drive can easily turn into an hour drive. Overall, I am very happy at the place I am currently at!

How to get great beach waves

Hey Fashionistas,

As you might have noticed I cut my hair. I did not cut it because I am going through a rough patch and needed a change. Over time my hair became brittle, dry, and thin from coloring it and styling it. Of course, I use treatments and I also try to take care of it but my hair was just dead. So last week I was talking to my husband if, short hair would look good on my and (he is such a sweetheart) he assured me that I would look good. About 20 minutes later I found myself at the hairdresser before I could say something my husband pulled a few references for the hairdresser and bye bye beloved hair. The result is healthy looking hair that is finally bouncing again. Am I in love with this haircut? I don’t know. I went home and cried but I guess the new hairstyle has to grow on me but I definitely don’t hate it (anymore).

Lancome Skincare Review

Hey Fashionistas,

I received some goodies from Lancome. The products were sent to my complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster but opinions are my own! 

Lancôme Bienfait UV SPF 50+

I love that stuff! The formula is lightweight and non-greasy. This sunscreen does not only has an SPF of 50+ it also works great under makeup. The Lancôme Bienfait UV SPF 50+ retails for about $39 at Sephora. It is also fast-absorbing and oil-free. I have normal to dry skin and it feels very comfortable using this sunscreen.
