Before the Wedding

Before attending a wedding a girl has a right to go crazy.

In all possible ways.

Right?

Well, at least, I think so.
 

Me and my boyfriend have been invited to a wedding that is taking place tomorrow. It’s a wedding of my man’s best friend – so it’s really something.

When I was thinking about what to wear, my basic plan was to find a dress that would be very tolerant to …hm, how would I say this – a dress that would be very tolerant to what my love of food brings along.

And let’s not talk about that anymore, please.

Please!
 
 

Last Wednesday, very early in the morning, I packed three apples and set off for a journey to a nearby city to loot it from left to right and from north to south.

I decided to get the dress first and find the accessories that would go with the dress later.

Five hours, one coffee, one Red Bull and one emotional breakdown later, this dress appeared in front of me.

Thank you Marco Pecci of Peek & Cloppenburg – whoever you are – for making this lovely romantic dress for me.

You are my savior.

I think I love you!
 
 

One more coffee and three hours later, I bought the shoes which I am not showing here for indescribable reasons.
 

Whether I could believe or not, the day was almost over and it was time to go home.

Which was awesome because the craze had spread into two days.

On Thursday, I went to find my accessories. Since my dress and my shoes were all black I wanted to cheer the look up and decided to go for the color red.

I bought a bracelet…
 
 

… and a ring.

It’s a diamond ring.

(In my dreams…)
 
 

And then I bought these earrings.

I am not quite sure whether they go with the ring and the bracelet but I don’t worry about it much since they will be perfectly hidden under my hair.

 
 

This is a scarf.

A large scarf.

I bought it instead of a jacket or cardigan or whatever – in case the weather is cold.

I plan to wrap that around my arms so that I am a little warmer.
 
 

I love this scarf as much as a girl can love her scarf.

Just look – it’s half lace and half warm.
 
 

I really adore all the details.

In fact, I might be the only guest who is wishing for some colder weather for tomorrow.
 
 

And then there’s this.

My beloved Ruby Rose.
 
 

Aaahhh!

Doesn’t your heart feel a little warmer right now?
 
 

Look!

There’s more!
 
 

I think I might choose something from this side.

 

I just can’t wait for tomorrow.

See you soon.

Love,

Petra
 

Pink and Green

As I let you know last week, we are currently moving…and I am lucky enough to be spending this ‘precious time’ house sitting for my parents, thus delegating all the moving on my beloved boyfriend.

He’s one fortunate guy.

Thank you my dear boyfriend for being so strong and brave. You are truly precious!

Just imagine, he’s already done about 80 per cent of the work.

Awesome!

And now, what does that have to do with the rain boots?

Well, this house where I am staying right now is just full of colorful things – for some reason my Mom is really into colors.

So I got the idea that I might post a few pieces to color up your day.

I’ve spotted these boots the other day and since it was raining all day today I thought it was the perfect time to capture their uniqueness.

My Mom usually wears them when she goes to discos on Friday evenings.

Not!

She puts them on when she goes to her garden!

Those are definitely the most chic gardening shoes I’ve ever seen.

I had to make a picture of them (or two, or twenty) – the color combination of the gorgeous pink and the lush green seemed too beautiful and irresistible for me to overlook.

Oh, and the neighbor saw me – taking pictures of rain boots – in the rain – under an umbrella.

Hm, he said nothing…

Bye for now, dear friends, I will be back with more colorful stuff soon…

Have a wonderful week!
