PARIS baby - My impressions!

Hello people,

I went to Paris on Thursday for one day. We took the first train "TGV" early in the morning and the last one in the evening. It was a short trip of only one day but I felt full filled after since it was my first time in Paris and who doesn't want to go there one day. We are talking about the city of love and the fashion metropolis ;)

  

Unfortunately the weather didn't allow us to go on the Eiffel tower itself since it was pretty cold underneath it when we got there, that moment it also started raining and there were too many people waiting so we decided to skip it.

Still can't believe I actually was there even if I have pictures that prove it XD So unbelievable, it feels more like a dream, a really good one ^^

Me and my friend Mersida (which I introduced you to some posts ago, skroll down to see). I was there with her and her husband Haris, which is my cousin. ^^ We had a great time together.

Me in the streets of Paris!

In front of the Louvre!!! The sun just got out that moment so we were really lucky being able to take beautiful pictures in front of the Louvre :)

My outfit 

(In case you've been wondering)

scarf: handmade by my aunt :)

camouflage jacket: Zara

black pants: Zara

studded bag: H&M

boots: Belle Woman

And of course I stopped by to see my friend Lisa :)

I got to see lots of other sights like Notre-Dame, Champs-Elysées, Le jardin de Luxembourg, the Seine river and a few more!

I didn't buy much. I only bought a few little Eiffel tower keychains for friends ...

 

... and a MAC palette! I actually went to two MAC stores because they didn't had the 4th color I wanted for my palette but I kind of didn't pay attention when I was at the 2nd store and bought the color I wanted in a paint pot... so I guess you'll see a HOW TO RE-POT YOUR MAC EYESHADOW post pretty soon ;) The rest of the money I spent on food and taxis. There wasn't much affordable, Paris is really an expensive city. I went shopping at the famous Lafayette and Printemps galeries where you can find all high end brands (Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Céline, Ralph Lauren, Lancel, IKKS, Rolex, Porenza Schouler Marc Jacobs, etc...) The things I liked I couldn't buy and there was also lots of stuff I can also find in my city.

The colors I got for my palette are:

Cranberry, All that glitters, Vanilla and Satin Taupe (paint pot)

I already miss this amazing city and I'm definitely gonna go there next year (2013) again. I don't know yet when but I hope it will be when it's good weather and next time I will take more money with me. Also I haven't seen Sacre Coeur, the triumphal arch and the famous cemetary Père Lachaise where Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, and other famous aritists are burried... And of course next time I have to go on top of the Eiffel tower for sure :D

The only thing I didn't like was that there where way too many people everywhere, you couldn't look at the things you wanted to, you had to wait till somebody moves and there were always people walking slowly in front of you so that you got pissed off. Also I thought that the service wasn't good, at least where we ate, the waiters/tresses were slow and forgot a lot -.- 

It was an exhausting trip too, you definitely need more than 1 day to see the whole city. One day of walking killed me so much that I probably lost almost 2 kilos on that one day, I probably made at least 35 km by foot.

From Paris with Love,

<3

Ready for fall/winter! - New in

Hi guys,

It's been about time for a new post and this time I 'm showing you the stuff I'm gonna wear this fall/winter.

Starting with my new jacket by Zara which is what I call a two in one jacket since it has on one side fur (fake) and on the other you can take it out and wear it as a thinner version. That's what I'm doing right at the moment. I'm waiting until it gets colder to put in the fur in ;)

This is actually not a new jacket I got it last year, it's by H&M. I love wearing only a trench coat when it's not that cold and raining outside. Then I just take this trench coat out of the closet and combine it with a fluffy scarf.

 

My new scarf in taupe! Bought at New Yorker.

My new shoes! Yes they are green, and that's what I like about them. They were calling my name when I pasted them at the store. I bought them in Germany at Deichmann.

NEW CLUTCHES!

I offered myself a new enveloppe clutch with long silver hardware that I can pull out or just leave in the bag.

 

And I got this smaller clutch with lots of skulls, also with hardwear.

 

And this clutch fits perfectly with my boots for this winter that are also full of skulls and stars! :)

These are the shoes I was wearing on Halloween (scroll down to see post), these are Jeffrey Campbell look alikes. I bought them at a german shop named Rose Moda in Trier for about 25€ and I must say they kept me away from buying the original Jeffrey Campbell Litas since they were so cheap but so comfy.

 And these are btw the stuff I bought a few months ago but didn't show you. I loved wearing this grey scarf this summer on days that weren't that sunny.

And the shoes are very comfortable so as I couldn't decide back then which pair to take I bought them both. ^^

I will be soon introducing you to my fall/winter nail polish picks :)

And don't forget to subscribe to my 1 year blog anniversary giveaway (sidebar) since you only have a few more days!!!!!!!!!!!

Sincerely, 

IrSaDa

BAGS, BAGS, BAGS, …

Moien,

So today I'm doing a post about the bags that recently moved in my room, and I'm also showing you my favorite bags.

NEW IN:

This is a Zara bag I bought 3-4 weeks ago! There is a little story behind. Well I saw this bag on a girl and it drove me about 2 weeks crazy that I didn't know the brand of it and that I was to shy to ask her for it. Then I saw this bag on someone's blog and found out that it was by Zara :) You can imagine where I went the next day right in the morning. And now we are finally together heheeehee

This is really a great bag! Good for the university, I can put really a lot in it and I just love this leather (even if it's only a leather imitation, it just looks great)

This is my new dark blue Armani Jeans bag!

I bought it 3 weeks ago and LOVE it. I just have to be very careful with it, because this bag is really sensitive. When I don't use it, it's in the dustbag. 

The only complains I have about this bag is that you can see every dust core and stain on it sometimes, and I heard from other people that the little silver chain that it attached on one side gets very often lost, so I'm very often looking at my bag when I'm on out, like every 20-30 seconds if it's still there -.-"

This is not a known brand, it's a Anna Smith bag. Bought it about two months ago. Because it reminded me of a Juicy Couture, as it is so fluffy ;) And I thought such a pink bag would be nice for the spring & summer.

Let's get to my new H&M bags ^^

I bought this cool black with little grey rievets on ebay as it wasn't available at the H&M stores nearby. It's also wearable as clutch, there is a little bag handle that goes with it. 

And this my new nude H&M clutch/envelope bag I bought last week. Also LOVE this one :D

And last but not least this is my H&M hobo bag I bought about 6 weeks ago! It reminded me of a model that I saw by Longchamp (for lot less money) so it practically screamed for me to buy it ;P

And now I'm showing you some of my FAVORITE BAGS:

Another H&M bag, it's a hobo fringes bag (or my little hippie bag as I call it :))

I bought it last year and since then I had lots of adventures with it. I used it a lot at music festivals and concerts. And there goes a lot more in it as you think!!!

This is my one and only purple Juicy Couture bag :)

A friend bought it for me in London! This is my FAVORITE bag EVER EVER!!! And it's in my favorite color purple (in case you haven't noticed my purple fanaticism) ^^

I get a lot of attention with it and I'm aware of that fact. When I wear this bag I just feel like a star, special and unique, just as my bag. Who doesn't love that feeling?

 

This is a brand you probably don't know either, it's called DOCA which is a greek brand.

I bought it about 3 years ago. Unfortunately I broke the front zipper but I fixed it with a port key.

When I saw this bag it was 'Love on the first sight'!!! And then the seller told me Madonna had the same bag, and that was the point I said to myself there is no chance I will go home without this bag ;P

And last but not least: My Longchamp collection ^^

I bought this white Longchamp bag last year in spring. First I was uncertain because I'm not a fan of white bags but this bag turned out into a really good investment.

It's size S, small and chic!

Just perfect for summer too.

Here are some Longchamp Pliages (Pliage = they are collapsible) that I owe, from size S to L, different sizes and different colors.

They are so practical, for no matter which occasion you don't do something wrong wearing one of these.

And the last one I owe is this Longchamp Hobo bag in a very bright pink. This bag is very good for the university too. I used it so often.

That's another point I LOVE and appreciate about these bags, the quality is JUST AMAZING and worth every penny!!!!!!!!!

And if I had to tell you what's my favorite bag brand, I think I would go with Longchamp. I actually plan to buy soon another Longchamp Pliage in size L in grey color and also a leather tote bag I felt in love with (but this one is a bit expensive, maybe after my birthday in August ;)) and maybe even more… LOL

So this is it.

I feel like I this post has no end and like I told you my whole life xD

Please also note: This is not my whole bag collection, just a part of it!

AND ALSO IF I DON'T FOLLOW YOUR BLOG YET, IT'S BECAUSE I HAVE SO MANY NEW FOLLOWERS AND SO LESS TIME TO CHECK EVER BLOG OUT BUT I PROMISE I WILL FOLLOW BAG IN 2 WEEKS AFTER MY EXAMS!!!!

So this was really fun!!! ^^

XoXo

You know you love me,
