week twenty eight

Hello week twenty nine, good bye week twenty eight!

The past week flew by as always. On Monday I wore my Marni for H&M silk pants, which I snatched up on Sale in their German online shop. They look a bit like pajama bottoms and are super comfortable, just like my jammies. I also found happiness on the street last week, I stepped inside the box and felt pretty happy all week. Coincidence? Another reason for being happy was my first Zara online order. I ordered the studded sandals below (also on Sale. Yay!), they are not the most comfortable (yet) but I love them already.

We started our weekend at Pier 13 and took a friend who was in town for a business trip with us. What better way to start your weekend with a cold beer and views of the Manhattan skyline? The rest of the weekend I spend working on small projects around the house. I finally painted the inside of our front door, weeded the front yard and did some more browsing through photos for the final vacation post. Hopefully I can keep up the pace and cross a couple of more small projects off my list this week...How was your week/weekend?

Have a great and productive new week!

    1. I will show the door when the rest of the room is done. I took before and after photos but because the door was already primed white and I painted it white there is not really a big difference ;)

      Yay,for being almost done! Can't wait for your big reveal!

  2. LOVE those pants and your bravery for wearing them! I'm too afraid of prints and colors, I think, but they look great on you! I love the Zara sandals, too. That style is very popular right now, and I love that everything ships for free on Zara's website. And I'm so happy to be on Instagram now so I get to see these pics as they happen. That shot of the string lights against the sky is really, really magical. Happy Monday!

    1. I used to wear black and greys mostly but have gotten bolder in the last couple of years. Love that Zara ships for free, that makes it easier to pull the trigger ;)

  3. Those sandals are really great! I'm going to have to check out Zara online. I've actually never bought anything from Zara before - despite going to their stores in the US and Europe

    1. They have cute stuff but it's hit and miss sometimes...You should give it a try. They have free returns as well ;)

  5. I love those pants and new Zara sandals. The little studs on those sandals make them extra special. Looks like stepping into that box was the right move for a happy, productive weekend. Must find one of those, or create one myself. Happy new week!

    1. Love the studs too. I have a matching belt, that I've gotten a while ago. I need a happiness box in my backyard ;)

  6. Both of those shots of your sandals are awesome! Prints scare me too (hi Erin!), so bravo to you for being so brave! My favorite of all your photos from the weekend are the lights against that gorgeous night sky, and I'm so glad you stepped inside the box for some happiness. Here's to more happiness to come. xo
