About Dove's Experiment "Beauty-Patch"

So the well-known beauty-brand Dove never fails to catch our attention with their ingenious campaigns, created to possibly strengthen the self-esteem of us women. After the famous "Real Beauty-Sketches" video, Dove strikes back with another experiment called the "Beauty-Patch". 

It's clear that the brand's message once again goes into the direction of "Beauty is not in the face - Beauty is a light in the heart".

But can Dove possibly manage to stick with their image of inner beauty once again or is this new campaign just flooded with clichés?
Read more to see Dove's video-message and discuss with me in the comments!

About a touch of blue.

I'M BACK! Don't know how many weeks passed since my last post.. but definitely too many. 

I've never been so busy in my life. I didn't have any spare minute, not even on the week-ends! 

But it feels great to blog again... And guess what? This is my last week of school before autumn break! 

You know what that means, right? I HAVE LOTS OF FREE TIME! 

Soo please please excuse me for my big absence, I'm going to bomb you with posts and comments now!

Now, really important: 

If you have Instagram, please follow my brand-new account @nomoneyforhighfashion. I follow everyone back!

About dungarees and its history.

This summer was or is all about dungarees. Since Switzerland isn't the most fashionable place on earth, or at least it's not as fashionable where I live, I searched long time for my perfect jeans dungarees.
But I finally found them! Although not in Switzerland - in Italy.

When I first wore them to school on Monday, right when school started again, everybody in my class looked at me like 'what the hell is she wearing'.  Like I already mentioned the place where I live is not fashionable in the original sense, you're like over-dressed with a pair of dungarees here, but honestly, I don't give a damn.

But - don't missunderstand me! There actually are people who dress very fashionable here too, just that everyone other doesn't understand that it is fashion then. Sounds a bit complicated maybe, to sum up I can say that if you don't want that people talk about you where I live, you better dress lovely but also really simple.

About a quick journey through Paris. Part III.

-Honoré de Balzac

Bonjour my lovely readers! Today I will take you on a really quick trip through my Paris suitcase, the things I bought there and what I wore!

If you haven't yet seen my other two posts about the trip, click here for the first Post about Paris, or here for the second post!

Well, first of all I wanted to show you what I bought last year (!) in Paris. (Mainly from Abercrombie & Fitch, Zara, Levi's and the bag on the picture below is from Bershka).

A quick journey through Paris. Part ll.

«Though I often looked for one, I finally had to admit that there could be no cure for Paris.» 

- from: The Paris Wife

So finally I managed to prepare the second post about my quick trip to Paris!

In this first post here I already showed you my aunt's house on the Champs Elysées, the Opéra, lunch at Printemps, the Eiffel Tower by day, Notre-Dame and Pont des Arts.
Take a look at this post if you haven't yet!

So the first destination I'd like to show you today is:

A quick journey through Paris. Part I.

«Paris is always a good idea.» 

- Audrey Hepburn 

Okay. I'm literally, deeply, madly, crazy, hopeless in love with Paris.

If you've read the "Lory's Story' page"  on my blog (well, I don't think you did) you might know that my aunt lives there directly on the Champs Elysées, and I visit her once in a year. 

Paris is the biggest inspiration I've ever seen in my life. I love the buildings, the people, the mentality, the chicness, the fashion.. just everything. Except the food and the weather of course. The food is awful. 

When I first visited Paris a few years ago, the love to fashion as a real art grew inside of me. 

I don't really have the words to describe what this city does to me, but it's the reason I'm obsessed with fashion and books about fashion.

So if my parents ever complain about me spending a fortune for books about the story of fashion.. well.. blame my aunt with her apartment on the Champs Elysées.

Anyways, I went there several times now, but I'm amazed by this city every. single. time.

So I'd like to show you my few days in Paris with this (and other one or two posts which will come later).  The weather was actually amazing (30 degrees every day, it was unbelievable hot), which was a real surprise because it rained everytime I went to Paris except this time.

Liebster Award! Spread love! :)

So it is Wednesday evening, I'm freakin' tired and I'm looking forward to having a day off tomorrow! 

The weather here is miserable. I mean, it's a shame. It's almost June and everybody is walking around in boots and bomber jackets... it makes me sick. My veins need the sun.

Anyways, Danica just rised my mood, as she nominated me for a Liebster Award. Thanks so much Danica!

So since I'm feeling very social tonight, I thought I'd actually post about this. It's my second "award" I got, and although it is not a "real" one, it makes me happy to see that there are people who really notice and read me and my blog. It's an amazing feeling to be honest because I've only had this blog for a few weeks, and that's why I want to make 11 other people smile by nominating them in this post :) 

(I wish I could nominate you all!)

But first, I have to answer 11 questions asked by Danica. So here we go!
