Spa souvenirs from PRAGUE



I spent the last weekend in Prague, where I, apart from experiencing its impressive culture&arts, did quite a lot of shopping. Well, the prices might be a tiny bit different to our prices here in Switzerland but the diversity and exclusivity of the shops are pretty striking too.
So I found this very lovely shop called Manufaktura, where they mainly sell interior, as well as Spa stuff to very affordable prices! 
First I bought this hand-cream including minerals and trace from the Dead Sea, which has beneficial effects for the entire organism, it says. When first using it, I immediately realised that my hands are much softer but still not too moist (cause thats what I usually really disgust when using regular hand-cream)
The second item is a hair mask, again produced out of Dead Sea minerals, which I just used when coming back from my trip. My hair is now really soft and they smell very pleasant but again not too intensive. 
Cause I am such a candle weirdo, I cannot walk by such a nice baby, so I placed it right next to my bed and it looks really classy, I believe! 
The last item is something I have always wanted to try out: A gel-mask for eyes. It may be applied in the form of hot and cold compress and really calms and relaxes tired eyes. It also reduces swelling and supports blood circulations and alleviates headache. I tried it out and it is soooo relaxing and seriously felt like I am at a professional Spa. :)

So if you will visit Prague once, check out this beautifully decorated shop! 

Have a lovely and sunny week,

Let the game begin




Boyish, brutal or just kinky?
Well yes, but also pretty addictive with an impressive storyline and very strong actors!
When my boyfriend, who is an absolute series junkie, recommended me The Game of Thrones, I never thought I am ever going to like this. Except for Harry Potter, I`ve never been a fantasy fan and I could not imagine watching "such crap". 
So he used his persuasion skills and I decided to watch the very first episode, with the intention not to watch further on but.. OH BOY. All the "GoT" watchers out there will secretly laugh now, cause as you may have guessed already, I watched the second one, the third one, fourth and so on.. Trapped in an addictive "GoT" spiral, I watched every single episode, every youtube clip with the actors talking about their role, read every single interview I could possibly find and I even started dreaming and raging about the incidents.. Well, I guess thats called an addiction. 
I cannot stop raving about the series and I do not even know what exactly it is what makes it so special. Its certainly not the slaughtering, not those many sex scenes, not the dragons or all the other weird creatures that appear, I am just so impressed by the idea of writing (filming) such a great story for years and years and still being able to capture such a big and diverse audience. 

So if you are not already a GoT watcher/reader, I hope with this post, to prove that you do not have to be a fantasy fan to like this series, I can just encourage you to watch the very first episode without prejudices and see what it will provoke inside you! :)


All the best,

COME SUMMER, COME!

Hey everyone!

My finals are almost over and summer is finally about to start here in Switzerland. Since I am taking a gap year, I really hope I get more time to write on the Walk Of Frame and to start new, exciting projects!
Soon, you`ll find my blog on Facebook, where you can easily detect all new updates and posts while surfing through social media. Especially for those people not using google and gmail, this new adaption is pretty cushy :)



Every new summer also brings new trends to us, so I assembled a few of those summer "must-owns" for 2014!

1. Birkenstock sandals:
Heidi Klum secretly knew, when subscribing for the Birkenstock commercial yeeeeears ago, that those shoes are going to be a huge trend sometime! So yes, their time has finally arrived! This summer is all about comfy shoes. And I must admit, combined to a long hippie dress or jeans shorts, those shoes are a fantastic companion for summer 2014.

 2. Tinted sunglasses
Had a long night, even a little hangover? Well, here you go! Cover your eyes with colourful tinted sunglasses and look fabulous at the same time!

 3. Hippie-flower-hair-band:
What should I say about this? It just looks soo romantic and mellow, perfect for a quite summer evening with friends or on a festival. Those bands are available almost everywhere, yesterday I just detected a really nice and affordable one at H&M. Check it out!


 4. The "Two in one sunscreen":
Cause I have a pretty light skin and I get sunburned just so easily, I just HAVE TO USE sunscreen. So I found this pretty awesome one, which includes carotin (from carrots obviously ;) ) and this tans your skin while enjoying the sun. ( I am not really a biology or chemistry expert, but google is, so just look it up if you want to know more about it!) ;)
But be careful, it only has a very low sun protection, maybe you`ll fin another one with a higher protection but I have to say I am really happy with this one.



Hope you all have a relaxed and fashionable summer!
