Disastrously Memorable Trip

Hello, everybody! Just came back from Nordrhein-Westfallen this morning. I was so beat that I could only upload the photos to my facebook page and then went down for the count. It was one hell of a trip. First, we went by train to Köln, where we would be staying for the whole trip. Iva and I -- the only girls in the group -- planned everything...well, most everything, beforehand. Here's how it went:

Day One: Exploring Köln/Cologne and Its Dome (a.k.a. The 50-cent-costed Torture)

Here are the group (minus myself) in front of the Stadtmauern (City Walls)

Okay, so first of all, we went to the hotel and put our bags there. We got hungry and grabbed some lunch. We found the walls above and took a picture there while we were at it. We went straight to the Dome Church and checked it out. We went to the treasure room and since we thought it'd be a waste not to climb the tower too for only 50 cent more, we went ahead. But...OH MY GOD DID WE REGRET IT HALFWAY THROUGH! The man wasn't kidding when he said it was 500ish steps...

Lovely sight from the top of the tower!

Photo Shoots

Afternoon, everyone! Yesterday was one hell of a Wednesday! I hung out with my old friends, whom I haven't seen in, like, forever and we had a blast having photo shoots. Of course, this is one of those opportunities to show off my new look -- which apparently surprises some of them. By the way, snow is the best setting for photo shoots.

Long denim top perfectly matched with knee-long skirt

This is actually another look that was supposed to be taken but didn't. I took this other photo myself to show you how it'd look with that long overcoat I have in my hand.

Lovely black overcoat brought to you by Marks and Spencer

Tomorrow is the beginning of my trip to Nordrhein Westfallen! Beyond excited! Can't wait to share some pictures with you guys soon. Already thinking of 1001 ways of wearing the clothes I actually bring with me.

Have a nice Friday, everyone! Oh, and have fun in winter for those who live in regions with winters. It's going to be so much fun!

Side Story: Lovely Accessories

Hey, guys! How was your Monday? Mine was filled with a lovely date with my beloved. We had brunch and raided a bookstore. Same old, same old. Winter chill was put at ease today and the sun was shining quite brightly. It was a blissful day! Instead of the usual, I think I'll take this moment to mention some of the people that I love in a fashionable way: accessorize!

These are the accessories that I can't leave my house without. It just so happens that they were given by my loved ones, one way or another. This is just to show how much I appreciate them!

This lovely handcrafted watch is from my sister who bought it from Aussie when she got back. I love the elastic band of it and the beautiful etchings all around it. Very ethnic!

A beautiful Swarovski necklace, last year's V-day present from my lovely! ♥ Never went anywhere without it hanging around my neck, except when taking showers. The only pink thing I let touch my skin forever. 

Not an accessory, really. More like a necessity. A pair of glasses from Disney! One of the first things I bought with my own savings. Thank my parents for the allowance I ended up saving~

But, of course, one should never forget to bring an umbrella and whatnot. The snow's getting harder in some regions of the world. Live safe, everybody! Have a nice Tuesday!

Friendly Feature: Pomegranate and Cranberry Juice

Hello, everyone! How was your Sunday? Mine was one of those lazy ones. But, hey, everyone needs those once in a while. Today I am going to feature a blog from a friend of mine. Well, I'm just going to future her. It just so happens she has a blog. Take it away!

Zahra Nabilah Damayanti

the girl behind Pomegranate and Cranberry Juice

I stole this picture from her facebook page. Sorry.

A fellow fashion enthusiast. A very fashionable girl at such a young age who has a passion for music, especially classical music. She is able to play both violin and piano -- and probably lots more, I'm not sure. Passionate people make me happy! ♥ Currently on her way on becoming a medical student.

I suggest you check out her blog to see her fashion sense in action. Lovely, in my opinion. She always knows to mix which top with which bottom. Oh, Zahra, if you happen to read this, this is my way of thanking you for adding me to your friends list on your blog. Go check out her blog, everybody!

Country Road

Morning, everybody! It's getting colder by the day over here. Today is a very happy day for me. Why? Well, I'm going to Karlsruhe to meet my beloved and close friends! So excited! What are you guys up to today? Hope it's a nice Friday for all.

Add shorts underneath to keep my buttocks from freezing

Blue ribbons to keep the dress from being too loose

This chiffon dress makes me feel like a fairy~ ♥

Pulling off this look outside, it's around -15º C out here

I'll be leaving in 2 hours and yet not everything's ready. So excited I think I'm going to throw up! We're also going to go on a trip to Nordrhein-Westfallen, a state here in Germany. Can't wait!
