Oxblood and Mustard

So far I really enjoyed putting togehter fashion collages via Polyvore and will try to post a new outfit every Tuesday. Yesterday I finally figured out how to clip items from online shops to Polyvore. The funny thing is that I tried it with my standard browser Google Chrome and I think there is a Cookie issue I couldn't fixe yet. So I have to import my items via Internet Explorer, but it works. Yay!

Hope you have a great week so far. The snow has melted away completely today and the temperatures where mild and spring-like. It gives me some inspiration for outfits that don't tend to hide all parts of my skin to avoid being cold. Excited to do lots of more collages and getting into the spring vibe soon.

Beautiful Jewelry

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and some sweethearts are supposedly searching for a cute gift for their girls. As budget is tight most of the time and a tasty dinner – cooked at home or splurged on in a chic restaurant – lets our wallets get slim like a super model there isn’t much money left for a thoughtful little present.
Of course love isn’t all about the material things – we all know that – but a small surprise just makes my heart go quicker anytime. Just the gesture in itself is pretty much the best part about a surprise.
On Etsy I discovered a cute shop with different love and lucky symbols turned into delicate jewelry made by the jewelry designer Applelatte. It took me some research their Etsy page to find out that the shop and designer is located in South Korea. I’m not sure about customs but I might give it a try and find out to get one of those cuties…as hubs might not read this to get the hint. ;o)
 
I hope you have a great weekend doing lots of fun things. Weather over here is freezing cold. Lots of snow is left on the streets due to the cold climate. I’m already wishing for spring to start but then a quarter of our new year will be over already. So I think I better stick with winter days and enjoy a cosy afternoon at home with lots of tea and treats.
What are your plan?

New Blog Header

You never know when enthusiasm and creativity flashes and you’ll be more productive during one evening than in many weeks ago all together. As making the button was kind of easy I kept going and here it is, my new blog header.

It’s the first one using pretty pictures and not just text. I think it turned out very well and reminds me of our relaxing days at the Baltic Sea in fall. I remember that those days there were nearly the last golden days in fall so the memory is precious to me during the cold and dark season.

What do you think, do you want to move into my Cosy White Cottage?

Button Alert!

 

                                             <a href="http://the-cosy-white-cottage.blogspot.de/" target="”_blank”"><img src="http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p492/minny777/BlogButtonTheCosyWhiteCottage2_zps1284a79b.jpg" /></a>

I always thought that creating a button for my blog is way to difficult to handle and that I don’t have the patience to do it. Oh, I was so wrong at least for my abilities. I found a great tutorial over at Projects around the House that worked so well.

The picture of the little white house was taken at the Baltic Sea in a little village called Dahme. I loved the little cottage right from the start with it’s thatched roof and it is right next to the beach.

Don’t you fell in love with it, too?

Oh, how Pinteresting Wednesday!

It’s pinning time again and as most Wednesdays I like to link up with the lovely Michelle who recently go a sweet adorable son! Congrats again on that dear!

So as it’s kind of a tradition that I pick a theme for my pins I decided, as pulling together yesterdays Valentine's Day Outfit was so much fun, that I keep on going with the festive Holiday of Love that’s ahead of us.

I always loved Valentine’s Day as it is a opportunity to dress up and splurge on a  tasty dinner with great company. What else do you need in live?
