RELY ON THE BASICS

Winter is here and I wanted to show you my current favorite laid-back-look. Since I bought this 

camel coat last year, I am hardly wearing any other jacket/coat these cold days. Pairing it with 

basics and nude colors, always works out for me. Especially on lazy days. 

As long as the temperatures still allow me to wear ripped jeans, I go for it! For the top-part I picked

a light dress that I hardly wear anymore, so it's perfect for using it as an undershirt and layering it

with your fave knitwear, to break the edge of the basics a little bit. 

This outfit is the perfect example of how I  like to dress, when I just go out to grab some coffee and 

don't want to think about what I'm going to wear. A pair of denims and a knit-sweater always do their

job.

FAVE LIPSTICKS THIS FALL – KIKO EDITION

I'm addicted to wearing lipstick. So I thought why not show you my fave lipsticks I love. 

This is the first part of an OFS beauty series and I start with the more affordable ones from 

Kiko. At this point I like to mention, that this isn't any kind of cooperation with the label. 

I just really love the fact, that they have pretty inexpensive beauty-products, with a wide range

of colors. I even love to buy my nail polish there. Back on topic – for me, wearing lipstick is the 

easiest way of 'dressing up' a simple outfit. Other than some accessories, lipstick is timeless – 

depending on the color of course. Let's start: 

As the color of this mat lipstick says, it's a brown shade (for most of you). When I wear this color, it
looks more nude. I love wearing this for a natural everyday look, when I don't feel like looking
heavily made-up.

A woman's life is not complete without a classic red lipstick. Some prefer to only wear this bright

red for a night look, I like both. But careful. If you don't get the right shade, it might look trashy

on you. Make sure to follow the contour of your lips (no worries, I also still need some practise when

when it comes to this).

Lipstick-Lovers are not satisfied with only having one red shade. So I also got myself a darker red. 

This is actually my most worn lipstick when I go out at night. Now, that fall is here, I also love

wearing this shade when I go to work. But maybe it has to do with the fact, that I don't change my 

bag every day and always care this lipstick with me.

This shade is perfection. It's not the typical hot pink and simply perfect for rocking the dark lip

this fall. I can't stop wearing this shade but now, when I think about it, I have to shift down a gear

using this one, because it's from Kiko's limited edition. And I couldn't take it, not having this color

in my lipstick-collection anymore. 

Which one is your fave so far?

COMING HOME

Yes, Vienna. I'm coming home. And not just for the weekend. But also not for good. I'm coming 

home for a week and I'll be working from home for a few days. Although I have to get a lot of things

done, I'm looking forward to see my family and friends again. I'm excited about strolling around, 

going to coffee shops I know, looking and being at familiar places, and to not feel like a newbie. 

Funny thing is: My new home is coming home too. Pop into Berlin is coming to Vienna SneakIn

and I'm going to see a few Berlin faces there. I hope I'll be seeing you guys there too. You should 

definitely drop by! Even if I have to work, I am looking forward to being home again. The last 

days – well, actually the last weeks – were really tiring. So I hope this little 'vacation' will be at 

least a little bit relaxing.

SUNDAYINSPIRATION: HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL:

'F O C U S  O N  Y O U R   O W N   S H I T.'

Besides the happenings around me, quotes are also an important source of inspiration for me.
Thought I'd start a new category #sundayinspiration, where I post some of the quotes, I currently can
connect with, sentences/words that I try to follow when it comes to life. All I can say about today's
choice of quotes: easier said than done. So welcome to a new OFS category and the shortest blogpost
ever.

NOT MY STYLE SUNDAY

I don't have much to say. Just one thing: SHOES - ACTUALLY NOT MY STYLE.
And I think y'all guessed so by reading my FINALLY post a few days ago. Well, here's a
new category of OFS. I'd like to call it: "NOT MY STYLE sunday"

The funny thing is, that I bought these pair of sneakers like when I was at the age of 13 or 

14 I guess. Yes, they still fit. And yes, I still didn't throw them away. Now I think that they're 

kinda cute. But this doesn't mean that they fit my style. They actually don't. I'd prefer to walk
around the streets of Berlin in my much loved heels. Too bad that the construction of the streets
here makes it impossible to wear them. What I like about these so called shoes?
I like the white in combination with the lilac touch. Another funny fact is that they 

were actually never comfortable at all. But I think that is because I was never a sneaker person. 

For me, they're just too flat. After wearing them, my feet hurt like hell and my feet were sore as f*. 

Guess this was the last time wearing them. Or maybe not. We'll see. 

KNITWEAR PROBLEMS

Berlin. It's gettin' cold. And there's one thing I forgot. I forgot all my winter jackets in Vienna. 

Still two weeks left until I fly back to get some things done. Will I survive these temperatures?

I could buy a jacket here but let's be honest. This winter came way too early. So I am convincing

myself that I will survive the next couple of days with my hardcore-layering methods. 

If I survived years of my own stupidity of always wearing skirts or dresses at sub-zero temperatures,

this will be an easy game. 

After all, there's one thing I always asked myself. My knit-jumper is cosy and really thick. It keeps

me warm. Unfortunately days are getting colder and wearing a jumper without a jacket won't be 

enough. Wearing a thick sweater leads to one major problem: My arm won't fit through the sleeve

anymore. No. I won't buy my jackets one size bigger. First of all: They just fit right. Second of all:

If I'd go for a larger size, the over-all fitting won't look good anymore. Also, only thicker knitwear is

leading to this problem. But wearing a lighter jumper leads to the problem of freezing. I know if I'd

just buy a winter jacket, all problems would be solved. But there are still between-season days where

no one would wear a winter jacket. What do you do in that case?
