Dear readers,

sometimes I just follow some stores on Instagram to get inspirations. But since the citytrip in Hamburg I have to say so many stores have to update to an online store. Luckily, the store & other stories has one.


I have to admit they're really expensive, but you have to watch more precisely. Their sale is absolutely amazing. 50 to 70% of sale, I still can't imagine, I bought this bag for 50€.
It looks so cute and classy. I had to have it as I saw it. The shape is absolutely perfect for a dinner or a going out night with your girls. The golden chain upvalues the look perfectly.

I just can recommend to visit the store in Hamburg or to visit their online shop!

Dear readers,

my beloved boyfriend presented me a weekend in Hamburg with tickets for the Disney Aladdin – The Musical for Christmas and I was so excited to receive it.
Unluckily, I had my intermediate examination this week, so it was very exhausting for me. The first part of the intermediate exam is the theoretical part on thursday. On the weekend Niclas and I will be in Hamburg and on sunday evening we will watch the musical. On monday I have to be back in Hannover to fulfil practical part of the intermediate exam.


We drove on saturday at 11h AM to have enough time for the shopping trip he promised me. I wasn't really successful, but I got a new bag by & other stories and some tanktops by Urban Outfitters and Amercian Apparel. Happpy though, we got some food in the mall. As foodies, we actually look for some interesting restaurants, but this time, we were really tired to find anything. For the next time, we have to do some research.

I thought we have to dress classy for a musical, but a musical lasts for about 3 hours so I chose a very comfortable variant of a classy outfit.
           


And finally on sunday evening, we watched the musical. I really recommend you to watch Disney Musicals. They're magical and I was pretty delighted. It was better than I expected even for my boyfriend who isn't really a fan of musicals was impressed.
It was a wonderful weekend, but it was too short.

Dear readers,

pencils are the best tools for sketches. But in university you should always be diversified. That means to try out every techniques of drawing.

But honestly, I always draw with pencils. I love black and white, maybe just because I can handle with black and white. With pencils you can imitates the shades better than with other tools.

This time I try out to draw with a ballpen.
It was really difficult so I had to start over and over again. And there you've got another reason why I love pencils. You can use an eraser, which is not possible with a ballpen.

Drawing eyes can be difficult and there are so many ways to draw eyes. I have to train more to make it more realistic. My other problem is that it doesn't really look like a sketch. It has to have more criss-cross lines, more hatched.

But you all know. Skill comes with practice.
