My Favorite Black Boots Collection

Hello everybody,

it's mid november already and I can't believe how fast this year went by. It's just crazy!
It feels like one week ago it was summer and now its cold and rainy outside and at six pm it is already dark outside. But there is one thing that i love about autumn. Clothing. As soon as it is getting chilly outside, I'm ready to wear knit sweaters, chunky scarfs and most importantly boots! I. Love. boots.They come in all different colors, textures and designs. You can wear heeled or flat ones, cowboy boots, biker boots, yeti boots, ankle boots, knee high boots... the list goes on and on.

But there is one particular type of boot that every girl has to have in her closet: A nice, good quality black boot. That's a basic and a must! Well, i have to confess that I have more than only one pair of these "basic" boots. A girl can never have enough basics shoes, am I right? You need one for every occasion, some days you might prefer something a bit more sexy with a heel, the other day you want to be comfortable and stylish so you choose a sleek, flat one. We all know how that goes.

Today, I decided to share my four favorite black boots with you. They are all different in size and style and I love them all. They are comfortable and easy to style with every autumn outfit.

1) Biker Boots with gold detailing by Sir Oliver

2) Heeled Ankle Boot in biker style by Pieces

3) Heeled Chelsea-Boot "Grace" Nubuk Leather by vagabond (Urban Outfitters)

4) Flat ankle boots (suede leather on the back) by Pier one

Travel: Lübeck and Fehmarn

Last weekend, my husband and i decided to go on a short little trip to the coastline of the Baltic sea and visit Lübeck. We wanted a few days to escape our everyday madness and just relax, to see new places, take long walks on the beach and visit some cozy cafés.

Well, let me tell you Lübeck is one beautiful city! It has a lot of old buildings and very interesting Architecture. Wandering through these old cobbled streets, admiring the beauty of the city and breathing in the vibe of coffee houses and ancient tea trading places... thats my kind of happiness

All these cute houses with their little white windows and beautiful flowers, old stairs and wooden doors, golden doorknobs and bikes leaning against the wall made me wish that I could live there.

Later that day, I visited a small art gallery called "Ansichtssache"and discovered some beautiful artwork by Volker Derlath and some other talented people. There were shelves full of different postcards, pictures and art prints, I could have spend hours and hours looking at them and i couldn't resist to buy a few little pieces to put on top of my mirror in the hallway. Here you can see how I placed them when I came home.

Right across the street, there was this beautiful café called "Kaffee Haus" which was full of people and looked just way to cozy to not go inside, so we decided to take a little break of our city tour and sit down for a nice cup of chai latte and a piece of cake. Talking about cake, the cake there was out of this world. They had a huge selection of different cakes, each one looking better than the other. We decided for a buttermilk walnut cake and let me tell you, we didn't regret it at all! So yummy and so moist. Amazing.

If you ever get the chance to visit Lübeck, do it! This city is beautiful and has a lot to offer from art galleries to a beautiful park, cute little cafes and old streets full of nice architecture and little tea shops. 

After our day in Lübeck, we headed to Fehmarn which is an Island next to Denmark. It has long beaches, little villages and good restaurants that offer fresh fish and other local specialities. You definitely have to visit the restaurant "Aalkate", they serve the freshest fish and delicious soups as well as a great selection of homemade smoked fish. When you are looking for some yummy cakes and good coffee go to the "Café Kontor" in Burg, which offers homemade cakes, made after old collected recipes and good quality coffee or visit "Café im Hof" which offers the biggest cake slices I have ever seen and also a huge variety of different teas.
