Today’s outfit is rather casual and something, I actually love to wear everyday: huge and warm sweater, comfy jeans, sneakers – and you’re good to go! :) But this sweater is something very special! I got it from Bauchfrauen, a body positive shop that celebrates the belly with some lovely messages on their clothes and accessories. Mine says “you are beautiful” in German. I wore this sweater for some grocery shopping and it’s cool how it actually made people smile when they saw me and those kind words. So, today’s outfit may not be very special but it’s a gentle reminder that it’s nice to be nice. ;) So if you don’t own a sweater like this one (you should, though!), try to perform some tiny little acts of kindness when you’re out and about: smile, be friendly, share your food with those in need, say something nice to a stranger,… there are so many possibilities to be someone’s reason to be happy – just use them! And mostly: be your own reason to smile. Be beautiful, especially inside. ♥

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’m seriously in love with this look and so happy to finally show it to you! It’s still very fall-like in these pictures but we already had our first snowfall on Sunday, can you believe it? Not the best idea to wear your pants like this right now but I thought that it’d look cool to show you something different. Plus, these jeans aren’t very skinny and you may remember the first look of my C&A collab for which I had already worn not-so-skinny jeans and it’s just not as perfect as super tight ones. So this cropped look is a great alternative for when your pants are too wide and when you want to show off your boots. ;)

Of all the pieces I’ve shown you (and there are still three looks coming), this sweater is my absolute favorite. It’s the softest and coziest sweater ever and I’m pretty sad to tell you that it’s already sold-out online – but don’t worry, from time to time, some sizes are available again and you just have to be quick. ;) I’m actually waiting for it to come back in my size, too, so I can get a second one. I’m just too much in love with it. It’s cute but still sophisticated because of the bronze glitter dots and I have to say that I really like the combination with navy blue! I added a touch of black with the hat and some glittering red on my lips for that perfect fashionable fall look (at least for the warmer days, haha! Right now it’s all about a warm jacket…).

Hands up, who remembers this background? Those of you who already follow me and the blog for more than 3 years, will have a major flashback! ;) I have to be honest: I really miss the minimalistic photo locations in Hamburg but it’s kind of funny to be back with my retro style for the outfit photos. I guess as long as I’m here, this will be a recurring background, but I’m trying my best to still offer you some different looks. ;)

This is my second style with and for C&A for fall. It was actually supposed to go online in September but because of the Plus Size Fashion Days (where I also walked for C&A in a lovely outfit!) and my sick time in bed, I just managed to shoot this look right now.

I couldn’t find the sweater online, it may be sold out, but you should look for it in your nearest store if you love it as much as I do. I hope you can find it there!

Edit: the sweater is now available online, → here!

This is a super easy and cozy look for fall. I came to appreciate these kinds of outfits during my first time without an actual closet. Of course, I’m still that extravagant person you know but my priorities changed a bit and I learned that it’s absolutely fine to wear something basic – you can always make it your own with the right accessories or a special make-up. And you don’t need a certain outfit to be happy. It’s about feeling good and yes, this comes also from clothes when you feel cozy and comfy, but it’s also about where you wear it and with whom. ;) #friendsandfamily
