HOW TO: Think Pink

One of my friends bought a bright pink blazer the other day, which instantly brought us a little Spring/Summer feeling and i found myself thinking about all the ways to wear it...


Every season, the same problem... where to get THE perfect white dress... this one comes quite near the perfection searched....
Open hair, an envelope clutch in the nude color family ...( guerrilla girl a fellow blogger from Croatia sews them pretty successfully for her self as well as for a famous croatian design duo called Envy Room....)
...and i imagine wearing wedges... or nice T-strap sandals... nothing over the top...


Kanye is a drama-queen...




Pink, tan, strawberries and STRIPES.... nice!



works with color too....


Olivia spotted the trend as well, she rarely does it wrong actually...

More pink on leather...



These are my two favorite looks! 
Preppy and effortless... take a beanie... you never know..

HOW TO: Furoshiki

Back in the day, when plastic and paper weren't available for wrapping or handling tools, Japanese used a cloth called Furoshiki.
Dating probably from the 14th century, Furoshiki is used to wrap gifts or to carry groceries of different weight or shape.

In 2006 the Japanese Minister of Environment Yuriko Koike called the international community to use the cloth instead of paper and plastic bags to preserve the natural resources.

Here some ways to do the wrapping magic...




If you don't have a square cloth and want to purchase a Japanese one... go over to :

KIREE (german shop) or JAPONMANIA (french shop)

Using Furoshiki will not only prevent waste but is also a nice and unusual way to decorate gifts...
Try it!!
