golden golden sunlight

Do you remember last wednesday? and me taking a day off last wednesday to go shopping on a rainy morning in completely empty stores? The memory of it still makes me blissfully happy... although it's raining outside as if the world were ending tonight. summer? no way! This post is about the jewellery I bought that day...
  
In my shopping basket landed two necklaces, a ring and a pair of earrings. It's funny, but all the pieces are in gold... not real gold, of course! Well, it's funny because normally I only like jewellery in silver. I simply think it suits me much better. I guess I changed my mind lately. I love my new pieces of golden jewellery! golden like the sunlight...



It would be hard to say which piece I like best. Every one possesses its own congeniality. The little golden bow ring is super cute, while the earrings bestow a hippie-touch upon every outfit. and the two necklaces: well, the owl is my new buddy, that much is for sure, and the acorn always reminds me of scratch from the ice age movies. that makes me smile...
  
okay, enough talking about jewellery!

natural flavoured ice tea

I made a new discovery last weekend: tea bags for ice tea. I've never seen anything like that before... well except normal tea bags of course! special about it is that you can use this tea bag with cold water, ice cold water. yeah, really! just pour water in a glass, add the tea bag and your ice tea is finished. Can't get more easier than that!

It comes in three different flavours - forest fruits, fresh mint and juicy lemon. I went for the first one and I was pretty impressed how perfectly it worked. wouldn't have expected it... I mean, try pouring cold water over any other tea bag and all you get is a bitter tasting kind of water... iehh!


So this is really worth it and a perfect treat for hot summer days. Best thing about it: all the ingredients are completely natural. And the box looks cute...

I am off for a tea,

ps: the tea is from the Silber shop in Zürich, Switzerland. You can have a look at the other stuff of the brand here.

my new favourite


Yesterday was a very creative afternoon and today... jah, well, just work. Nothing particular. That's why my post doesn't have anything to do with yesterday, today or any day... instead, I must admit something:

I am an owner of a super duper cool summer straw hat! One like I always wanted it... okay, the hat is black and not straw-colour but that doesn't matter. I wish I were going to an openair festival this year, this hat would so complete any outfit. Well, instead I have to wear it to all kinds of other events. Better for me!

nobody-but-yourself



I simply love e.e.cummings' poetry! I came to know his works through my studies and I have been impressed ever since. so many things in his poems feel so familiar. he just seems to speak right from my heart. well it doesn't come from my heart in that artistic and twisted way of course - but still! Now I come to think of it, I will have to dedicate a blog post to e.e.cummings sometime. For now, enjoy his philosophy!

ps: a day of creativity is waiting for me tomorrow! you'll probably see the results soon...
