Getting ready for winter.

While J. is probably sunbathing and doing all kinds of stuff people do in summer the next couple of months (as it is summer in Australia), I am getting ready for winter in Germany. They say it is going to be one of the coldest winters in 100 years. I have done some shopping, so I will hopefully be prepared for that.

I bought some basic stuff, like gloves, hats, a woolen pullover/dress (in pastel pink! it's very big, so you can either wear it as pullover or a dress with a waist belt ), snoods (which I totally love this season) and padded shoes.

I especially love the shoes. They are in the style of Doc Martens and super comfy!

 

And as I currently love pastel colors, I bought some other stuff that I found pretty.

I have some nailpolish that goes with these colors (although I do not wear nailpoilish that often, as I like my nails the way they are).


I also like nailpolish in the classic red color, or grey and light red.


And I bought some magazines and books that I can read when it's cold outside. :)

Shopping cures depression.

Whenever I get stressed or I feel that something is becoming more demanding than I can handle, I find myself shopping like there will be no tomorrow. It helps me calm down, and I feel happy when I have shiny new things. :D

Some of my newest 'conquests' are

my new shoes

and a fabulous new bag.

The bag reminded me of Mulberry's Alexa (named after Alexa Chung), which I find très chic and always wanted (but cannot afford at the moment haha):

Can't wait for my next shopping trip! ;)
