Love

"The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life."

Mood board // Fall thoughts


all pictures via // edited by me

I know it's been ages since my last post here
but even though things have happened in my life the past time
(and I was always saying, oh my, I have to blog about this and that)
I never actually had the time to sit down and make a post!

So since my last post...
 ....I graduated from the University,
I got a new job
I made my hobby a part time job
I went on holidays with my sister
and also did a fair bit travelling with my boyfriend.

When did autumn arrive,
I have no idea!
Strangely enough though I like it :)

Autumn to me is a season to relax,
drink huge amounts of hot chocolate,
wear knitted layers
and take pictures of the brown-orange coloured alleys.

All these leaves in the streets,
all these colours in the sky..

...what best to come?

Mood board // This summer I want to...


Inspired by this post on the "10 things to do this summer" I decided to make summer list,
so here it goes. 

This summer I would like to:
1. Travel to a place I have never been before
2. Taste a different bottle of wine (or two) every week
3. Read a book-and manage to finish it
4. Dance as much as possible
5. Laugh with every occasion-life is too short to take it seriously
6. Walk barefoot more often
7. Make colourful popcakes!
8. See some fireworks by the sea
9. Get a new camera....
10. ....and make a collage out of all my summer pictures

What are you planning to do this summer?

The Londonian Girl reviews...Fitflop Ollo Cork Tan

If you are a regular reader of this blog,
then you already know from this post
that sometime ago I was lucky enough to win a Fitflop giveaway
and choose a pair of my choice.

"Just on time for summer" I thought-after jumping twice around the dining table!

My box arrived very quickly 
and there was this pair of Ollo Cork Tan sandals
waiting for me to try them on.

Unfortunately the size is a tiny bit bigger than my actual size
-I definitely recommend anyone to buy a size smaller than their actual size when buying these sandals-
but boy do I love them!

Fitflops are made for walking since the heel's material absorbs any tension while walking,
which of course gives me extra motivation to go for a walk at Hyde Park
even after a very tiring day in the office.

Even though it is not the prettiest pair of shoes I have ever owned
I find them perfect for travelling, shopping and strolling in the beach.

Fashion lately is not all about being chic, 
but rather about being chic AND comfortable (Birkenstock I hear you say!)
For the price given I think Fitflop wins, so why not give it a go this summer?

Who knew that even for a petite girl like me, heels can be comfortable!

Have you ever tried Fitflops?

Thanks for reading,
Joanne
