January
January starts like most of the years super quiet. The first entry of the year was this look here. 2015 we’d moved to our new flat and you always loved the interior posts. Therefore, the year started with a little insight into our bedroom with the most comfortable mattress (unfortunately the company no longer exists – read more about it in the post).
Restaurant recommendation of the month:
- Waldmeister in the Barerstraße – super cute daily café with a great lunch menu / Munich

February
Well, the first months of the year are always quite outfit-heavy. As soon as the cold months would have been over, travels start again. One beautiful collaboration was the Winter’s Gold evening with Dalwhinnie. Beautiful table decoration and the food was amazing.

March
Finally, the travels were about the start. Beforehand, I’ve posted this delicious Smoothie-Recipe with coconut yoghurt and pineapple. My boyfriend and I spent a wonderful weekend in Rome followed by two days in Paris and afterwards I flew to Barcelona with my girls. Why have I never been in this city before? So beautiful! For Easter we drove to Vienna to visit my brother and after that my two-weeks-travels were over.

In April a couple of more Paris entries followed and the Hotel Thérèse was one of my favorite hotels. In April I drove to the Ingolstadt Village and I chatted with Eva Padberg & Sara Nuru about shoes. Also, a small beauty post was published with my all time favorite cleansing products. And I finally photographed the first wedding of the year.

May
One of the most popular article was definitely my experience with braces for adults. And a second part will follow soon! In April I could finally tick another destination up from the list: a press trip to the South of Croatia. The articles were published in May. Can you believe that I’ve never been in Croatia before? Moreover, Weleda invited a bunch of blogger girls to Mallorca. The Font Santa Hotel was probably one of the prettiest that I’ve ever been before. We were a great group and I wishes we could’ve stayed longer.

After Croatia I also had the pleasure to discover the region of Portoroz – Piran on a four-day press trip. Slovenia was never really on my spot and I was so positively surprised. Piran is such a gorgoeus little town and I absolutely recommend a visit. Moreover, I had a beautiful collaboration with Alpro and their GoOn curd alternatives.

I hadn’t planend to go to Berlin Fashion Week but La Biosthetique invited to a make over. My hair got a lot shorter and see more here! After Berlin I flew back to Barcelona once again. I haven’t thought that I would come back so soon again. La Roca Village invited to their Designers’ Collective and it was such a nice trip. Afterwards I finally went on vacation to Portugal. However, I couldn’t enjoy it to the fullest as I had my master project in my mind all the time. Nonetheless it was a beautiful vacation.
