You love me like XO

All my favorite colors, all my favorite things. A bit of colorful pick-me-up on this rainy, dreary Sunday. Back to the office tomorrow!

Rainbow

Oh the colors!

 

Blaze

A few snaps from my past few weeks, which have been busy with me adjusting to my new life as a born-again student, hence silence in the blogasphere. Expanding my horizon on the great Kofi Annan and all his work for the UN, souvenir from Geneva reminding me of my sister every time I open my fridge, fruits of the sea enjoyed with friends, first real grown-up purchase (baby car!), vegetarian spaghetti bolognese with an old New York friend, and marveling at the my red hot Loubs while biking through the city.

 

In the city of s**

I know. I couldn’t have presented you with a more cliché post even if I tried. Hard. But I must admit – SATC will always be a limitless fountain of outfit inspiration, even to a classic/boring black-and-white-and-nude prude like myself. I recently revisited with the two movies, just to sit through 2 hours straight of bright outfits and accessories and hairstyles and shoes. See the main thread is timeless – brave, bold, adventurous personalities personify much better through color and vibrance than through 50 shades of black.
At least that’s what I’m feeling for now. So I’ll give it a go. The Carrie Way.
(PS I also watch for New York. Always always NYC ❤ )

 

Some summer

… aaaand another outfit with my new red babies. Worn with my flower power dress and go-to Chanel bag, headed out to celebrate the end of my 1st year residency and the return of a dear friend to the big capital.

Roubies

Headed out to celebrate Mommy dearest on her B-day, thus breaking in the 7th and newest member of my shoe family.

 

The ingredients

Sun and breeze and tan and white and stacked jewellery and sand and blue skies.

Round 2

Paulina 100. The perfect summer slingback.

Back to blue

Luxembourg offers great shopping facilities for the shoe crazed. Just saying. I went without the faintest intention of purchasing anything, yet only a meager 2 hours after landing I had personally landed two new additions to my ever growing shoe collection – and both on sale no less! One pair being the above, long coveted, Valentino studded heels. I opted for a more untraditional color though…

 

Tit for tat

Everyday snippets from the last week or so. Coffee and good company, Dr. Phil in bed, Chanel dreams between patients, Ghana throwback, Bollywood comfy pants, PhD studying in the sun (not my cigs BTW), and random posing.
