Oh oh Chérie !












Long time no post, I know and I feel quite a bit guilty and wish I could have found the time to keep you
up to date but anyway, I´m back and want to share the last (and my favourite) part of the photos taken
in front of a beautifully blossoming magnolia tree. At the moment I am rediscovering my love for all
kinds of hats and naturally developed a strong craving for all those elegant ones featured in The Great
Gatsby. In general the movie met my expectations on the level of the atmosphere it created (a huge
thank you to MiuMiu and Prada) although it did not quite reach the excellence of Scott Fitzgerald´s
novel storywise. Nevertheless its definitely worth the money and Carey Mulligan, Leonardo DiCaprio
and Tobey Maguire form an incredibly interesting trio of actors! Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) actually does a pretty good job at painting an adequate picture of the whole movie right at the beginning of the story:

"New York, 1922. The tempo of the city had changed sharply. The buildings were higher, the parties were bigger, the     
                                                               morals were looser and the liquor was cheaper." 


Anyway, enjoy your weekend and stay tuned!

Sweet Dreams




1




Voilà.... a post for all those of you having a sweet tooth and of course a post for keeping this blog up to
date as the intervals between my sign of life continue to grow longer and longer. However, I can most
confidently assure you that the current silence around here is only a momentary one and the last of my
written exams on Friday will allow me to get back to my usual routine again.
Have a lovely evening (& leave a comment if you should be interested in
getting either the recipe for the cake pops or for the mini bundt cakes)!


xx,

Correspondances











The countdown is running and there are only four days left to read millions of poems, dozens of dramas, Nietzsche, Goethe and whoever else thought his existence had been of such an incredibly considerable importance that he couldn´t help but to put his supposed-to-be-precious thoughts down on paper (drowning in self-pity can definitely be counted to those activities you really only learn to appreciate a moment before your final exams- it simply is such a pleasing change to the dullness of studying). Anyway, I couldn´t quite decide on how to edith the photos taken right in front of all those wonderfully blossoming magnolias, so I basically did twice the work and thought I could wait for your feedback...what do you think, saturated or with a slight tendency to black and white?

Of Fairy-Tales and Story Tellers







photos by Natalie Kucken 



Facing an enormous lack of time at the moment, I seem to develop a certain and quite intense 
craving for taking my photography to the next level and for finally building an online-portfolio. 
Nevertheless these projects will have to remain in my mind silently until my final exams will have
become a thing of the past (looking back will be so good compared to the momentary situation of 
both impatient and slightly anxious expectations). However I am luckily still able to admire the
beautiful work of some of the world´s most talented storytellers among whom Natalie Kucken and 
her fairy-tale photography can be found (check out her blog &  portfolio for a journey into a 
romantic, dreamy and incredibly surreal world).
Have a lovely Sunday!
