This winter, I kind of fell in love with striped sweaters. There’s → this cashmere piece and another one from the same brand that I found at the SALE and there’s today’s “Crazy Stripes” sweater from GAP, which is also a SALE find (call me the queen of bargains – whenever I shop, I always find a voucher or reduced pieces or even try to negotiate a bit, in a respectful way!) and therefore not available at the moment, sorry! I found a few nice alternatives, though:

 

Those bright rainbow stripes look great with anything, but I felt like the colors need to pop and so I went for all black around the sweater – plus a bright neon pink lipstick. Isn’t that a great combination? I’m also so, so happy to finally be able to wear my favorite hat again. It kind of looks weird with short hair but now it’s perfect again! ;)

This outfit would definitely also work with sneakers (like → those) but I feel like especially with my beloved Chewbacca jacket (at the end of this post, you can find other styles with it), it looks a little bit better with heels.

I can’t believe that this is already the last look of my collaboration with C&A – and that Christmas is right around the corner! Only four more days to go! 

To be honest, I’m not super christmassy this year. Maybe because of my situation with the separation but also because we never celebrated Christmas too much. It’s always been a cozy day at home, with some delicious food (the last years I cooked my famous duck breast with either dumplings or home-made mashed sweet potatos and red cabbage). This year’s Christmas looks a lot like raclette, something I really adore, and I’ll spend the evening with my parents – a super familiar and cozy atmosphere. Maybe we’ll also play some board games and drink mulled wine. I’ll leave that to mom and dad to choose. ;) 

This outfit is definitely a nice choice for Christmas Eve, a mixture of comfy (the cardi) and elegant (the blouse) and a nice pair of jeans. :) Can’t do anything wrong with that, right? The blouse also comes with a delicate necklace with little stars and even though I’m not a necklace person, I decided to wear it and: I like it! :) It makes the whole look a little more festive. ;)

It’s getting cozy again! Today’s look is super comfy and perfect for those rainy and snowy days before Christmas! :) All you need is a leggings, a sparkling sweater (love the two-in-one look with that sheer part below!) and a warm coat. This one was a huge surprise cause it is the most amazing (short) coat I’ve ever owned and I’ve already been using it so often – it’s definitely my favorite piece of this year’s winter season. As usual, most of the pieces are already sold out online, but again, I want to let you know that checking the shop more often is totally worth it, especially on Sunday evening – seems like they update their stock around that time. ;)

[Produktplatzierung | Product Placement]

We seriously need to talk about how many pants I’ve been showing you throughout the last months. Isn’t it crazy how C&A managed to make me like jeans? So much I even ordered one by myself in their SALE section (this time, an actual skinny jeans) plus another one at → Violeta by Mango (cause it’s embellished with pearls and you know how much I love pearls!) and I can’t wait to try them on.

Today’s outfit is → recycling one of the jeans you already saw. This is not a post of our collab (→ that’s why there’s the label “product placement”) but almost the whole outfit is gifted. Everybody who attended the C&A Collection Preview event in October in Düsseldorf, got one of the #WearTheChange t-shirts (as far as I know, they’re not for sale, sorry!). They’re supposed to promote C&A’s sustainability engagement, especially cause they’re the biggest producer using organic cotton. I believe that this is pretty much a great thing to support by wearing this t-shirt and therefore being a part of the change. ;) But I’d also like to interpret this shirt my way and say that for me, “wearing the change” in terms of plus-size means to be a change by wearing whatever I like. Probably kind of a challenge for some: tucking your t-shirt in your jeans. ;) I dare you to change and try it! ;)
