I heart LA


Yesterday it was all about a comfy look, so i opted for my new I heart LA (what I really do!) t-shirt and some flats.
I went out to meet up with my good friend Isi. It was really good to see her again after a month. 
We met in town and went to the river, afterwards we sat down at a cafe and just talked about everything and nothing. It was just a really nice afternoon! At the end we had a lot of fun riding through town with just my bike! 




I was wearing:

Geox flats
American Eagle Jeans (similar ones)
Abercrombie shirt
I heart LA t-shirt from Venice Beach
River Island bag



City of Angels

Hollywood
The last place/city on our list was Los Angeles. Last time we've just been to Venice Beach and Santa Monica, so I didn't know what to expect, but now I can just tell you I LOVE LA! I love the spirit and vibe that's going on there. LA also doesn't seem like such a big city, because everything has its own space, so it's a really comfortable city. Know I really understand why everyone's always like "LA is such a great city!". I really miss being there.
Our first 2 days we spent in Hollywood and Universal Studios. It was really cool to see the studios and where they produce(d) so many famous movies/series.
Then we drove to Malibu to spend some time at the beach. The beach was beautiful and the waves were so big, so it was great to fun to jump into them! 
After 3 days we visited Venice Beach and my mum and I went a bit shopping afterwards, while my dad and brothers went to a football game.
The last whole day we've spent in Disenyland Anaheim.

Monuments, Horses and Arches

Arches
 After Las Vegas we drove to different national parks:
At first we've visited Bryce Canyon, which I could remember the best of our first vacation in the USA. Even though I've already known it, it was so impressing and beautiful!
Then we drove to the Arches, that was when we had a little stop at dead horse point. It was both amazing!
Lastly we've visited Monument Valley and Grand Canyon.
My dad and I were hiking down and up the Grand Canyon which was an amazing experience, even if it was really exhausting! :-D
It was really great to see all those great things, and it's hard to imagine that nature has such an enormous strength to create such places.

At last we drove to Joshua tree park, where my brothers and I were just relaxing at the pool. But on our way to 29 Palms, we took the Route 66 and came to a little cafe, which also looked like a little died out motel. It was called "Roy's Motel/Cafe". When we arrived at our hotel we learned that it used to be a normal motel, when Route 66 was used more than it is now. We also got to know that some music videos partly took place at this cafe. For example: "This is what it feels like" - Armin van Buuren and "Hero"- Enrique Iglasias.
It was really great to see all those great things, and it's hard to imagine that nature has such an enormous strength to create such places.

Las Vegas, Baby

A little chillin with Mario and Luigi
After 5 days spent in Washington DC we flew to Las Vegas. I've been there before 9 years ago. I couldn't really remember a lot, but I knew that it was amazing, so it was no surprise that I immediately could feel the energy this crazy city has when we got there. It's so cool just to walk down the strip and see all of those crazy and exaggerated hotels.

Here's a picture of the surrounding!

Washington DC

At the airport, from Linz to Frankfurt
 On 17th of July we got up early and went to the airport. It was the beginning of our vacation to the USA. You must know that I'm really in love with america and all what it brings. So, I was really looking forward to this day.
Our first destination was Washington DC. I haven't been there yet and I didn't really know what to expect. I was a bit surprised that it wasn't the typical american city, like those cities in the US I already knew. But after all I really liked that "small town" feeling that I got there also if it wasn't that small,  and even if I'm more a person that loves big cities.
In Washington we did a little sightseeing and shopping, so it was a great combination. We saw the white house (which I expected to be much bigger :-O), the capitol, the lincoln memorial and a lot of other things.

Now you can see some of my impressions of DC!

See you soon,

It's a beautiful day!


Today was a really good day. At first I finally got my braces off, even if I just had them for one year, I really am so glad, that they are gone! :-D
Then after school I went to Salzburg to pick up my mum, we did a little bit of shopping and it was just a perfect day, even if it was about 36° C we had a really good time! 

Because of the warm weather the last couple of days, I chose to wear my Abercrombie & Fitch skirt, which I paired with some old pair of converse. When I got those sandals you can see on the pictures, I immediately changed my shoes! :-)
I hope all of you guys who already have summer holidays have a good time, and for all of you who still have some weeks to go, I wish you that the time will fly by! I just have 2 weeks left, and I'm pretty sure that we'll all make the last couple of weeks seem less! 

I wish you a nice evening/day!

My Clinique Facial Routine

Lately I've been pretty uninspired to blog. I mean I wanted to write to you, but I just didn't really know about what. So I figured it's better to have a little break than blogging about some trivial stuff.
Today I thought about blogging again, because I really hated that break.
So, I thought about all my options and thought that a lot of teenagers (I'm included if you don't know me) have to fight with acne and bad skin. I figured that my daily facial routine does a fairly good job, so I want to share my favorite products with you.

3-step anti-blemish solutions


1st step: Pump dispenser about 2-3 times. Massage gently over wet skin, avoid your eye area. Then rinse it off. Use this anti-blemish solutions cleansing foam in the morning and in the evening.


2nd step: Sweep it over your face with a soft cotton pad. Repeat every morning and evening.


3rd step: Apply a thin layer of the anti blemish solutions moisturizer also in the morning and evening. 


Where to get those products?

If you're living in Austria you can either get them at Douglas or Marionnaud. Also a lot of smaller parfumeries do have those products.

If you live outside of Austria, I will link some web sides where you can order them. 





Thanks for reading and I wish you a nice sunday!

Feeling the sun


 OMG. The last week was so amazing, everyday it has been like 25° C or even more. Unfortunately I didn't really wore like "nice" clothes last week, and also I was, to be honest, not really motivated, but now I'm back with full energy. 

Today I spent my afternoon with some friends at a river bar which opened again like two days ago I think. We always love to spend our days at the river, especially my best friend Anna and I. It's pretty cool there and it always feels like summer.

To "celebrate" our sunny day, I chose to wear an all white outfit. I love the different textures of the skirt and t-shirt. When it got a bit colder I just threw over my favorite parka, and off I went.





I was wearing:

Zara T-shirt
Hollister skirt
Urban Outfitters parka
H&M ballerinas
My mom's vintage bag, which she gave me as a present
blue bracelet from Spain

Spring Walk


Today I'm in such a good mood, and I hope so are you? It's so beautiful to see all the flowers growing. I think there's no time of the year that could be more beautiful than spring! 
In spring I also love that you can wear more clothes than in summer but less than in winter, so you can create a good middle basis, which I like a lot. But I think one of the best things in spring is that you can wear ballerinas! :-))

I wish you a nice rest of the week! Thanks for reading! ♥



I was wearing:

Total Zara look

It's Banana Shake time!


Hey, long time no see, and therefore I'm really sorry, but  I've been so busy studying and stuff the last couple of days.
So, because of today's occasion (spring finally reached austria) I thought I would post an amazing recipe for a banana shake (mmmmmh!).

Ingredients for 2 or 3 people (or just for one, if you're feeling hungry and you don't want to share) :

  • 2 bananas 
  • 2 big spoons of vanilla ice-cream
  • some milk (how much depends on how liquid you want your shake)
So what you wanna do is: 
  1. Mash and freeze the 2 bananas
  2. When they're frozen chuck them in a blender with the other ingredients! 
And blend that shit up! 

If you want to you can also freeze your shake longer and you'll get ice-cream! :-)

It tastes amazing and is also healthy, so go take your 20 minutes and get into the spring/summer mood! 

See you soon, 

xoxo Kathi

Explination-Time

New York - Empire State Building
Today's post is going to be something else. I want to explain something about my last post. Normally I'm not the kind of girl that walks out with a mini skirt at zero degrees outside. Seriously, I mean i like skirts, but not in winter. What I want to say is: right now I'm trying to figure out who I am and who I want to be. Which girl isn't curious of trying new styles and outfits? I'm just fifteen, so I don't really know who I want to be. Maybe it's weird that I'm telling you that now, but I want you to know, that I'm not like trying to be good enough. I know I make mistakes, wrong decisions - but in the end I'm learning from them, and I guess that's what I want to tell you, don't be afraid, everything happens for a reason, also mistakes.
For a short time I forgot why I began to write my blog, not to copy a famous fashion blogger, but for me to expand my character and my style and that not in way you can see on an other blog, but in my own way and with my own style. The 2nd reason why I started my blog was because I wanted to make something more with my life, which now sounds a bit weird but okay, what I want to say is, I wanted and I still want to, share some parts of me with you guys, and I also like to have my blog as my little online fashion-diary.
The reason why I don't feel ashamed for my (maybe) wrong decisions is because I want to show you the real me, and I think everybody should be able to show who they really are.
Maybe it's weird for a fifteen year old girl to love designer labels and faux fur coats, but to be honest, I don't really know what's normal and what's unusual.
So with those things being said, I guess it's enough information about the person I am.
Thanks for reading!

xoxo, Kathi
