Strawberry shortcake

This is a photo (a bad one too, the lighting is terrible) from last Friday. I wore this to dinner and then to the vet’s office (Bananas needed to get her shots). Luckily the vet we go to is really fast and you go by appointment so there’s no waiting! Bananas was a sweetheart although she didn’t talk to me the next day (she was hiding in her little house, ignoring me. I’m not surprised, getting a vaccination shot is no fun. She has since forgiven me and all is right in our little world. Unfortunately she does need to get a second shot in two weeks.)

The Beige Coat

IMG_6936I styled this outfit around this H&M beige coat with gold zippers. I’ve had this coat since the middle of winter, I bought it in the sales and have since been waiting for it to be warm enough for me to wear it. It was the last one there and it was a size bigger than I normally wear, but I prefer a relaxed fit sometimes.

My New Life (Planner)

erin condren taffy stripesHip Hip Hurray! My Erin Condren life planner arrived today (one day early) and I couldn’t be more happy with it. I absolutely love decorating it! So far I’ve done a bit of this week, all of last week and the two weeks before. I’m using washi tape to mark the weekend and also to hide the writing on the bottom (that just says lists, meal plans, exercise etc.)

Jeffrey’s Back

IMG_6854 jeffrey campbell litasI can’t believe it has taken me so long to wear these shoes again – you may remember this post with outfit photos from February 2014, and that was the last time I had worn these awesomely high ankle boots. Until now, when I wore them on Easter Monday to a family lunch at my grandparents’ house.

Planner Crazy

I have a bit of an obsessive compulsive personality and when I get into something, I really get into it.  (Hence my huge shoe collection or my Lush stash.) I’ve been pretty good with make-up (I’m using up the items that are already in my collection and not buying new ones; but the hoarder in me is going slightly nuts when I run out of something and don’t repurchase. Because what if all of a sudden I need it out of the blue, what if there’s a zombie apocalypse and I’m left without my favorite make-up foundation?? Actually, yes, I totally will be repurchasing my favorite foundation, just not the other stuff. But foundation is very important. Priorities people.) I’ve been quite good with shoes too (but that’s more because I’ve run out of space to store them). I’ve been okay with Lush (I’m not buying any more bath bombs until I use up like half of my collection.)

But now I have a new addiction: I’ve gone planner crazy. It all started with placing an order for an Erin Condren life planner. No, actually, it all started with realizing that I am so unorganized and I that I totally need to buy a planner to plan ahead and have things listed and written down. I’ve always been into cute pens and stationery even as a little kid, I’ve always loved stickers so it’s actually quite surprising that it has taken me so long to get into the planner craze. Anyways, I thought I’d share some of my planner decoration collection and if you’re from Czech Republic, this could help you with where to look for cute stickers and washi tape.

In the land of polar bears

IMG_6797This is an outfit from exactly one week ago. Don’t be fooled by the polar bear Topshop fake fur coat, this outfit isn’t from winter – it’s apparently Spring already but mother nature hasn’t gotten the memo. (Although to be fair it has been slightly nicer this week. Slightly. It did snow on Monday.) Back to the fashion though, this coat is the most snugly cozy thing ever. It feels like your in your duvet or some heavenly fuzzy blanket. I have this huge oversized stuffed animal sheep from the brand Nici (it’s the Logan Jolly sheep in wolf’s clothing toy, pictured below), anyways, I call him Mr. Sheep (Pan Ovecka) and this coat completely reminds me of him.

Hearts and Polka dots

IMG_6823This outfit was from Sunday when M and I went to have lunch at M’s parents’ flat. We walked there instead of taking the car (M wanted to have beer and I didn’t feel like driving, because I never feel like driving) and it was actually quite cold (it had snowed in the morning). I started with picking out which bag I wanted to take. I don’t have that many good bags, a lot of my bags are showing considerable wear and tear, and most of my bags are functional rather than fashionable. However, this H&M spotted white and black satchel bag is one of my cuter bags. It fits a good amount of stuff and I think it’s really adorable too!

Worst Nightmare

A few days ago M and I went to see Fast & Furious 7. I had on a really cute outfit and I went all matchy-matchy. (My shoes were coordinated with the details on my satchel bag, and went well with my wool blazer, my dress matched the main color of the bag, my tights were black as was my cardigan and my pashmina scarf. It was all good.) As we were headed for the garage to get our car and go to the cinema, I heard this noise (like if my shoe was stuck on something and then popped away) but I didn’t notice anything and we went to the cinema. When we got there and on the way to get our tickets, the same thing happened with the other shoe. This time I paid more attention and then I realized that my sole (actually both of the soles) had become unattached from the shoe! Bloody hell! Literally one of my worst nightmares!! Both of my shoes were hanging on only at the toe part of the shoe! It was very difficult to walk (as I was worried the whole thing would come off and I’d trip and die.) We had a little over 15 minutes before the movie was supposed to begin so M went to get tickets and I went to Aldo to buy some shoes. I ended up buying the shoes pictured in the photo below (I didn’t manage to get outfit photos before.)

Ordered

I wasn’t supposed to buy anything but I couldn’t  help myself. I placed an Asos order today. I feel a bit guilty as I’m on the verge of being very broke but I NEEDED an outlet for my stress (I working on my thesis paper again and it’s about as stressful as it gets). Here are some of the things I purchased:

new look strawberry clutchI’ve had my eye on this New Look strawberry clutch and it was the one from the new line that I wanted the most (along with the pineapple one). I was thinking of getting the Skinny Dip Unicorn Tears clutch bag but that one was more than twice the amount that this one cost, so in the end I just went to the cheaper option.

Erin Condren

life planner erin condrenI am a stationery nut and I love cute things, so it is actually quite surprising that it has taken me so long to hop onto the Erin Condren life planner band wagon. Long story short, I needed a new planner and I tried getting one just at Neoluxor (the biggest book shop in Prague) and they only had really ugly planners so I finally went on to the Erin Condren site and ordered one of hers. I got the Taffy stripes one with just my name on it (it is pictured above but without the name). I got the event stickers as I think those are really great and I also got the photo stickers and I really can’t wait to see how those turned out. I can’t wait for the planner to arrive and to get way more organized than I currently am.
