FALLING IN LOVE ON THE TRAIN – SATURDAY STORY-TIME

I think that there is one thing we have all done despite all our differences. We’ve fallen in love. But there is a very special way of it. It is called falling in love on the train, the tube, the bus, the whatever wherever.

You are just sitting there (if you are lucky enough to have a seat) casually minding your own business staring holes into the air, reading 50 Shades of Grey, listening to your iPod or pretending to be texting. One moment later you some why look up to notice the most astonishingly beautiful person you have ever seen standing just a few feet away from you. And before you can think: ‘Oh hell, you are incredible’ you will be falling head-over-heels for this unknown stranger. If he is smiling at you this is a plus but not  a necessity. And it will make the blood rush into your cheeks and it will make you look like a complete and utter weirdo. But in that moment it doesn’t matter. This possible Calvin-Klein underwear model is so stunningly beautiful that you contemplate getting off at their stop to find out where he’s headed, but the thought to have a little chat with him and to ask for his number never crosses your mind.

Yet for some reason your hormone-filled brain starts to plan a future with this highly attractive stranger, imagining how your first date would be. But just a few seconds later your thoughts are interrupted by the oh-so familiar rustling of a jacket and a backpack being lifted up from the ground. You look up, the tube doors open and your possible one true love leaves the train. Without you even knowing his name and you’ll be sad for 15 seconds but then you’ll go back to your daily tube routine. Staring holes into the air, reading a book or pretending to text. your day will basically be like the previous ones.

But every once in a while you’ll remember this time you saw the most beautiful person on the tube and how they smiled at you and how you fell in love in mere seconds. And you’ll smile at this memory and how ridiculous it seems to fall in love with a stranger and yet you’ll be filled with a radiant happiness whenever you think of it.

'ello, 'ello,

after 10 long hours of uploading, my first rather crappy youtube video is finally up....

              (this is an epic thumbnail, isn't it?)

I'm so proud it's officially the first thing to be crossed of my bucket list.

I hope you enjoy it and please tell me what you think about it.
What are you going to do this weekend?

30 DAY SNAP #3 THE ROSEGOLD STUDDED FLATS

I bought those lovely flats a few weeks ago at a local boutique an I love them so much. I am normally more of a Vans kinda person but those shoes are extremely comfortable. I have already worn them to a wedding and danced in them all night long. 

Hope you're all well.

Me and Koko, the squirrel we've been taking care of the past two weeks. She's just too cute. 

30DAY SNAP #1

Hello peeps,

I am sorry that there's been no Friday fun video yesterday, but due to the constant heavy rain in my area my internet connection is basically non-existing most of the day. I can still upload today's picture with my phone.

Because of the bad weather today, I decided to snuggle up in my maroon American Apparel jumper, some pj pants and the fuzziest socks ever to go on reading 'Lean In' by Sheryl Sandberg. I even. So far I really enjoy this book it is incredibly helpfull. Even my pink glasses are in today's snap. 

I hope you had better weather.  

What were you up to today?

OOTD? NO,JUST THE RAINY DAY SHOES GUIDE

Just two days left until June officially starts, but spring ahs yet to arrive. At the end of April I thought that I could have worn my sandals and shorts and summer dresses already, but the weather is saying no. It’s been raining here for the past 4 days (without any breaks). That’s why I decided to do a perfect-shoe-for-x-y-weather tag.

I don’t want to go out with beautiful shoes when it’s raining and have wet feet five minutes later, because my shoes are soaked.

Without further ado here they are, the perfect rainy weather shoes:

    

a pair of white Dr.Martens for going into the city or anywhere else without getting wet feet

a pair of Hunter wellies for walks through the field etc.

Both shoes are the perfect choice for rainy weather. I’ve worn my Docs every day in winter, even when there was a huge amount of snow.

You can style both boots with skinny jeans, jumpers, skirts and tights…. but you need. I repeat: you need a pair of cool cozy socks.

possibilites:

 

bottom left: TOPSHOP socks

the rest: Primark (all over-the-knee socks)

or in my opinion the best choice for wellies:

the simple Hunter welly fleece socks

Goodbye,

hope you all have warm feet.

  

Oh and I am absolutely in love with the pattern and the colour of those boots.
