Loving Lately: ANNA FIELD Bag!

Hi Egos, I already told you about my last online shopping attack. Part of what I ordered during that time was this bag:

I'm so in love with it. Previously I mentioned how everything I own is something I unconditionally love :-D Same goes for this little wonder. As I was browsing through the online shop Zalando I stumbled across this lovely purse. It has got the perfect size, a nice shade of white mixed with black and metal.

The brand ANNA FIELD is an odd case for me. Whenever I browse their clothes, shoes and accessories I feel as if I don't like most of their things. However when I shop for something specific I always end up buying something by that brand. Weird, huh?

Anyway I've been using this bag almost daily and am so happy I bought it! 

Oh yes I carry some bags like this! Muhahaha! I look like a 

real chick, right? xD

EGOxperiment: Magnum First Kiss - The Quest Goes On!

Hi Egos! Yes I found another one! I slowly start to feel like Ash in Pokèmon or the guys from Dragonball Z looking for this ice cream all over town. I bet my friends think I've gone crazy. I've checked every store no matter whether it was part of a big chain or just a small 7/11.

However as the saying goes: Seek and you shall find! It's N°3 which is great because it proves my theory that Magnum purposely releases the editions in smaller groups. I guess they want to build the suspense or something..

Anyways let's get to the photos!

Yes I know you can read but let's just go along with it, okay? So N°3 is the Passionate Kiss. I was pretty curious about this one because I totally love it's name. It's supposed to taste like Tiramisu which was bound not to be my favourite one because I'm not really drinking coffee. Ice-cream-hardcore-fan that I am I still bought it. They only had the mini sized ones but who cares?

 the wrapping... not as special as the regular ones

 it's as long as my thumb xD

 I don't know if it's because it's Tiramisu but the big flavour-chunk at the first bite is missing T_T

well it's still more special that other ice cream bars

Alright here comes my judgment: I think N°1 and 2 are better because their ingredients are more to my liking. I still think that anybody who likes coffee will like N°3 and the composition is still pretty exceptional. It's just not really my thing.

But still so far I've like two out of three magnum first kiss editions and there are still two more to go!

What are your favourite ice cream flavours this season?

MY NEW APARTMENT: It Keeps Getting Better And Better!

Hi Egos! As you know I've finally found a new apartment for my sister and me! Last Tuesday we signed the rental agreement. So now nobody can take it away from us anymore! YES!

However that's by far not all. We still have many tasks ahead before we can start out new lives in our lovely new home. First on the list is getting to now the current tenant. I don't know about other countries but here in Germany everything needs to be settled in a formal agreement. After the rental agreement we still had to discuss the things that the current tenant would leave behind in the apartment, how much money they wanted for it and what they should repair before handing over the keys.

Luckily for us they were so sweet! Since we love everything about their flat and everything they wanted to leave with the apartment they agreed to all of our requests. That basically means that we could go in every room, point at an object and say "can we have that?" :-D

Me practicing my innocent, friendly smile for seducing the current tenants to sweeten the deal!

They said they just couldn't rip us off our money so they sold their stuff for 200 bucks less than what they originally wanted. Great deal, right?

Controllfreak that I am I immediately took pictures of all the things we agreed to keep and of course I'll now share with you the awesomness of what's going to be ours!

the cupboard for the TV and the shelf

this huge closet (it's already in the room meant to be the walk-in closet!) 

the desk (I don't know if I'll need it yet but well! Wouldn't say no to this one!)

 ki-hiiitchen! (without the microwave)

 this mirror (I already have a lot of mirrors -as you might've guessed by this blog's title but this one already hangs on the wall.. so no nails needed! :D)

 another gorgeous closet!

another mirror but this time it's in the bathroom!

huge black couch that comes with sister (just kidding.. my sister is 

not part of the deal cause that would be human trafficking :D)

Alright folks! You already got a glimpse of our new apartment and I bet you can tell how sweet it's going to be! You'll get the full tour once we have the keys in our hands!

EGOtalk: My Love-Hate Relationship with Online Shopping

Hi Egos, I'm sure you can imagine which direction this post is going to take aready :D It's summer which means I'll be out more often meeting friends in bars, chilling in parks and doing small trips to places I'm also in the middle moving to a new apartment which means that I'll have to buy some new furniture. These two factors are digging deep into my pockets but does that stop me from finding things I want to own? Of course not!

I don't know if it's just me but once I start buying things I won't listen to my bad conscience. Instead I go on and spend even more money :-D First I bought my new phone - which is back in my possession once again!. 

Then I started shopping for something to read since I needed to be occupied in the morning on my way to work.

I love these books! You should read them if you like real feelings in an unrealistic setting! :-D

Then I got this mail from Zalando saying the missed me and if I shopped something now they would give me a 10 bucks discount. So I did! :-D

Since I was on a roll I just got some armcandy and jewelry. 

The next thing is already on it's way... 

Gosh I can tell you I'm so easily influenced by seeing something other people have - at least when it comes to fashion. At least I've done my research and found these at least three times cheaper than most of these sandals cost.

Luckily I have now reached a level where I feel like I've spent too much money and should start saving up again. At heart I'm a closefisted person. So after heaving these shopping attacks I soon go back to normal and start thinking about every investment so much that half the time I decide against buying.

My dear sister would call this whole issue "First World Problems" which is true... But I guess it still is a problem.

How are you guys managing your finances?

EGOutfit: Everything That's Trendy in One Outfit - Challenge Accepted!

Hi Egos, were you already wondering why I haven't done an EGOutfit in such a long time? The answer is: I've been running around nacked.

Just kidding! EGOutfits are a lot of fun for me but so far I haven't found a cool setting for selcas or a photographer for outside shots. But that's all part of the past! My new apartment will have a special corner for LYE and a friend of mine whom I meet up with almost weekly might become a regular photographer. So things will change soon!

But let's talk clothes, right? If you're living in Berlin you can't help but notice how trends are changing and you'll see the top styles even before they're printed in magazines. So dressing up a bit to got to a small restaurant in on of the hippest places in town goes without saying. Besides I'd never leave an opportunity to show off unused. 

So after eating -yes it makes sense to stuff yourself and THEN do an outfit shooting afterwards... -.-" -  we did the first LYE outdoor shooting! I'm sooo excited about this!

It's a very casual outfit that still incorporates everything that's been so hyped. First up I borrowed the spiked hat from my sister. You know how I love everything spiked! 

The armcandy is a set that I just recently bought online (the person that invented online shopping should apologize to my bank account...) It's a very pastel pink with golden geometric forms. Both of which are a must-wear this season! Of course the black leather bag will never go out of style.

Can you be in love with the constant reminder of how little time you have? Obviously I can :-D There is something about valuable watches that just draws me in. Surprisingly enough this rosegold-grey colour goes with so many things I've got in my closet. So far I think it goes best with denim.

For those of you who follow me on Instagram these flats won't be news. For the rest: I've completely fallen for them! Once the sun comes out you should put on your favourite pair of ballerins. They've constantly been in style each year and are therefore a must-have in your shoe collection. I especially love the metallic grey/green/gold colour. I saw a video once on how to make your legs seem longer. The trick is to put on jeans and shoes that are the same colour. So I kept that in mind and put on these black jeans.

Lastly we got the denim shirt. I can't believe that there is still anybody left who hasn't noticed that denim shirts are almost as popular as the infamous denim jeans. However this shirt also has cut out sections on the shoulders which is something that has subtly entered the fashion world for quite a while. It's one of the quieter trends this season but still pretty popular.

I hope to show you some of my outfits more often from now on. If you would like to see more then feel free to follow me on instagram. I'm so in love with that site and it's filters :D

EGOxperiment: Magnum First Kiss

Hi Egos! I'm back in the name of Science! As a scientist you sometimes have to fully commit yourself to your project in order to get the best results. That means that might have to face horrible self-experiments! I'm now in that exact position!

I want to test these new Magnum ice cream bars to give you an accurate review! I know it's horrible right? How could I possibly convince myself to eat such a thing?

Source: http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net

But seriously I'm such an ice cream addict. At some point I thought I should go to rehab but I didn't. :-D

So Magnum has created these new flavour combinations and at first I was pretty skeptical about them. How could you mix Creme Brulé and ice cream? It's interesting and I really love their marketing campaign but I still have some doubts left.

First on my list was the Loving Kiss. By that time I didn't know they had some kind of order. :D I like berríes and I like ice cream. So that one was kind of a nobrainer. The texture was really nice because first you bite into a chunk of berries and then you have a more balanced mix of ice cream vs. berries.

Caramel Chunk - oh yeah!!

Second was the First Kiss - the one I doubted most. I couldn't have been more wrong. If you like caramel flavour then this is the one you should choose! Again you had that caramel chunk that you bite in and then it's pure awesomeness!

Can you feel how cool this ice cream is? :D

I really wanted to wait for the other three editions but so far I couldn't find any of them in store. So I'm guessing that Magnum will sell the other ones at a later time.

Who's in the mood for some ice cream now? :D

C U Egos!
