INTERIOR LOVE: painting furniture white.


there was a day when something disturbed my ideal of beauty when i came into the living room. the feeling of disturbance grow as days flew past. and then i suddenly recognized that i really hated my black CD shelf and both of my brown book shelves. they simply didn't fit into the concept of the rest of the room. they didn't fit to the pink and white coloured walls. they made the whole room look shabby, not chic. they somewhat made it all look a bit dirty. chaotic, but not in a creative, but very unsophisticated way. and i simply HATED this view so much so that i had the huge urge to change that sight immediately.

i bought wood varnish in white at the local supermarket and prepositioned paint brushes of several sizes and also a paint roller of those kinds we also used to paint the walls with. i used the latter for the CD shelf and the most extensive parts of both book shelves. 
but the finishing touch was the hardest part of the work. 
the book shelf was lying on the floor and with small paint brushes i painted the small, still brown parts, most of the time bent forward with all my body.

it was loads of work.

OUTFIT: there's nothing more cruel than only nine lives.


i've got a new outfit for you. although i very much love colours, sometimes i love it simple et chic with elegant non-colours such as white and black. in this outfit i chose a white mango blazer, a black joseph top, and matching vintage pants from my mum featuring both colours mentioned before. for the pop of colour and to show my love for the former i added a colourful twist in form of a acidic yellow clutch from sheinside.
