Obstwiesenfestival.

i visited the 20th obstwiesenfestival [OWF] in dornstadt, germany.

i've been excited for it for months now and on august 23- august 25, it was finally time for the 

greatest festival in this area (around ulm): OWF-time!! and it was all for free!!

the line-up this year was amazing:

the hidden cameras (CA), japandroids (CA), breton (UK), the hundred in the hand (US), we invented paris (CH/GER), casio kids (NOR)  etc.

......and my favourites: THE GO! TEAM (UK)!!!!!!

they were all amazing, especially The Go!Team had a great show on that rainy saturday, but everyone was

dancing to their songs "T.O.R.N.A.D.O." or "huddle formation. 

i highly recommend all of the bands i just mentioned - check them out online or just click on the playlist-link

ayia napa and its cats....

adorable cats on cyprus. they were everywhere!

and the lovely streets of nicosia were hot but empty- 

apparently all the residents of nicosia leave the

hottest town in summer for vacation because of the heat (over 40°C)

back in 2012.

after a long-time break of 9 months,  boiling beans is back!

we are sorry for not being able to update our beloved blog

but we were both busy being good students ;) or with other things in life.

but now we're back!

meanwhile, i was traveling a little in the US and in london, taking a lot of videos in Germany at festivals

and now i'm back from my vacation in cyprus and in doing an internship at a small radio station in my

home town in ulm, germany.

so i'll update you with a lot of pictures and playlists- hope you'll like it:)

i'll start with some cyprus impressions.

and a summer playlist.

         8 songs for this hot but rainy summer

I love Urban Outfitters!

today i went to urban outfitters, and all their sale stuff was an extra 50% off!

so of course i tried on everything that i loved (which was almost everything) and ended up with these lovely four items :)

the maxi dress should look really great in mexico, and the black tank top can be a bikini coverup or really pretty if worn on top of a tank top! i love the cut out shoulders on the nude dress, and the sweater is perfectly soft, cozy, BRIGHT for winter

ps- and this photo was taken with my iphone4s, edited with diptic and instagram!

DIY Backpack!

it's a beautiful morning friday in october (my favourite month of the year)..what better to do before class than wake up early and get creative!

I'm obsessed with this new website that shows a lot of DIY projects (check out my account @ www.pinterest.com/jamjamjam), so I got inspired to make something of my own. Here is a plain lavender back pack from Urban Outfitters dressed up with some studs.

i forgot to take a "before" picture, so i borrowed this one from www.urbanoutfitters.com (but it's sold out, sorry)

made by "deux lux" sold at Urban Outfitters

put studs along a row on the pocket and one on each zipper detail :)

tada! the final product!

trying it out, i think it looks nice paired with a feminine outfit

studs i used - bought 100 pieces bulk from ebay

just playing around with the studs.. <3

this might be one of many DIY projects to come..
