springtime in Vienna

Finally its getting a little bit warmer here in Vienna. Last sunday my family and i had lunch downtown and camwhored a bit as well ^^
Since i'm really really into the whole bright colors this season I'm trying to experiment a bit and mix some colors, which i think will look great together!
And i love to stand out in the crowd and in which better way to do that than color blocking ;-)

Destination: Copenhagen

My cousin and i decided to get out of Vienna for a couple of days.. we were supposed to fly from Copenhagen to Stockholm.. but neither of us had the time.. with work and school it was sadly impossible!
But we still had an amazing time in Copenhagen! The city is full of fashionable people.. totally different from Vienna. People are ridiculously friendly and tall!
We spotted famous sights, including the most visited Little Mermaid! We ate at recognizable restos such as Zirup and Hard Rock Cafe. We also spotted the small and controvercial Freetown Christiania. They also said that a trip to Copenhagen wouldnt be complete if you dont take a Canal Tour. And i have to admit aside from the disgusting weather it was quite amazing. We saw the famous Opera with its astonishing architecture.
We lived only a few blocks away from their famous shopping street Strøget. From high end to mainstream shops, they also have a lot of great restos to offer. Shops that really caught my attention were COS, Monki, Ginatricot, Samsoe & Samsoe, Urban Outfitters also Shopping centers such as Illum and Magasin.
There are also a lot of danish designer boutiques you wont hesitate to enter!
Another thing that really caught my attention in this tiny city, was that all the citizens were riding bikes. I think the bikes even outnumbered the car drivers. And they were all enticingly fashionable on their bycicles, it was just pleasant to see how they put so much attention on their outfits even if they're just riding a bike.

So for your next vacation consider Copenhagen your next destination ;-))

Dr. Jacob in the house

A day with the family celebrating my cousins graduation. Another doctor added to our family =)
He was the best dressed among all them doctors that graduated ..definitely my cousin ;-)
After the graduation at the University of Vienna, we camwhored a bit around campus and then we had dinner at a spanish resto with the whole family.

mon amie - Paris

I went to the city of love and of course the city where fashion was born, this past February. We stayed in a Hotel called Hotel Saint Londres just a few blocks away from the tourist attraction Louvre. In 4 days we got to see the most beautiful sights in Paris as well as the most famous fashion houses in the city. The weather was just perfect for sightseeing and for pulling off a great outfit without catching the flu - which i still did by the way :-(
Anyway.. IF you go to Paris, you have to visit the most famous tourist attractions of course, such as Louvre, Tour d'Eiffel, Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysees, Sacre Coeur, etc. Luckily we managed to see all these attractions except for Sacre Coeur :-(
Four days were obviously too short to capture the beauty of Paris, so we will certainly be back in this magnificant city very soon!
Now here are some photos i shot these 4 days, of course i only chose the best of the best now coz i took like over 3000 photos and that would be way too much ^^
Enjoy!

Dinner @ a Resto called Copenhague .. the food was delish! this resto is located at Champs Elysees, so we had a nice view of the famous shopping street.











Sightseeing @ Louvre Musee! Of course we got to see some of the most famous artifacts such as the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo etc. It is the most inspiring place i've ever seen. You can get all kinds of inspiration from the paintings as well as sculptures. It was a life time experience and we most likely will be back there soon.


















Next up is Notre Dame Cathedral. The Cathedral has very interesting details on the architecture part, it was interesting to see how it was so different from other cathedrals we've seen before. Its a beautiful church with a lot of history and inspiring spirits.













Shopping spree @ Palais Royal!
There are many small boutiques in the Palais, it has a beautiful Jardin in the center of it so i can imagine how beautiful this place will be in the summer.
The palais is surrounded by many famous designer labels of course, so we decided to get ourselves some treats.

















Of course the Eiffel Tower! We visited it during the day and of course by night, i have to say it is breathtaking by night!















Probably the most famous shopping street! Champs Elysees! And of course the Arc de Triomphe..
