TO A NEW YEAR AND BEGINNINGS.. BUT FIRST DINNER WITH DEICHMANN

lois opoku deichmann blogger dinner lisforlois
Welcome to the first post in the new year! I've been offline for a couple of weeks on the blog and recently also on Instagram. I just needed a little time away from the Internet and the blog to refocus and reevaluate what I want from it, where I want this to go and realize if my heart is still in it.
2014 was good to me, no doubt, but I think I did get kinda lost somewhere along the lines because I was dreaming bigger than reality was, and making my dreams reality felt like being lost in translation.
I was lucky to have lived what are now memories of 2014 and because I appreciate all that's happend, I'll still be sharing a couple of events and things, that took place especially in the last months of 2014.
And one of those things was a magical night I spent with Deichmann in a fortress, the 4 walls of Schlosshotel Grunewald. Deichmann invited me and some pretty rad girls - some new faces, some old, (Hi Nina! Hi Vicky!) for a Christmas Dinner. I had a couple of those Christmas Dinners, but none came any close to the night with Deichmann.

FABLETICS MASTER CLASS: ALL ABOUT PALEO

fabletics master class paleo diet lisforlois
A little back Fabletics held a little master classs with Sebastian Drabow, one of Fabletics very own masters, who educated us on all things Paleo.
I don't know if you have heard of the diet known as Paleo, it was my first time to be honest, but a Paleo diet is no different to that of a man from the stone age. Thinking about it, everything on the Paleo No-Go list is a creation by our food industry, and sugar to Paleo comes pretty close to what Osama Bin Laden was to the United States of America, #1 enemy. Right up on that list you'll find anything processed, cereal products, pulses(legumes) and milk products. My initial thought was, "Ehm ok so.. what's left to eat, because last time I checked, that was all I was having.."

THE OLIVE TREE THERAPY WITH OLIVEDA

Oliveda beauty lisforlois Oliveda beauty lisforlois
Hey dear ones!
It's been a while since I last posted a beauty post. No, it's been too long. Anyway I wanted to share some products I have been trying for more than a month now. I was kindly sent a few items of my choice by the Oliveda team and I have to admit I've never heard or tried any of their products before. I did some research and I agreed to having some sent to me. I took my time testing, because I didn't just want to introduce you to some fancy looking products. I wanted to be able to speak from personal experience. I think more than a month of trying and testing good enough to pen a post.
So let's get right to it, shall we?

LET'S TALK ABOUT LUISAVIAROMA, FIRENZE4EVER AND SHOP SOME STYLE INSPO




I remember the first time I heard about LuisaViaRoma, or better said read about the online shop and boutique from Firenze(Florence, Italy). It was on one of my fav blogs. And I immediately fell in love with their sortiment. From Givenchy to Elie Saab, from Balmain to Chloe, from Dolce to Kenzo or Dolce&Gabbana to everything designer a girl could dream of! From Handbags to shoes or clothing and accessories - anything I couldn't afford, but secretly saved up for.
And just like Net-A-Porter and Shopbop, I frequently visit LuisaViaRoma.com and loose myself in a world of fashion I'd love more than anything to style myself in on a daily basis. Not for the name, but for the art and craftsmanship those Label-ed pieces come with.

CHRISTMAS SPIRIT WITH FOREVER 21 + GIVEAWAY (CLOSED)

IMG_9961
Oh Christmas season I'm beginning to like you a lot, a lot more than I already do! Ok confession time:
I've never had a Christmas sweater. Ever. Not because my grandma can't sow, but in Ghana a Christmas is the last thing my grandma would be thinking about. I don't know but if I was a grandma in Africa I'd probably be making handmade Christmas Flip Flops for my grandkids or so.

Since Forever 21 wanted to indulge me in the spirits and traditions of the one true original Ugly Christmas sweater, they invited me to have fun in their X-Mas workshop admits a small group of classy yet sassy enough for the good ol' Christmas sweater fashion bloggers such as Ebba freaking Zingmark, who is even prettier in reality. Her Lookbook.nu fairytale pictures hardly do her any justice. With Glühwein and cookies and christmas music, the early evening felt perfect. And my create-shit-game was strong.
