Do you remember my article about galaxy printed wish list? If you like stars and star prints, I encourage you to check it out. The post, "Come with me to gaze at the stars" shows you a lovely selection of these items.

Today's post will be about a haul, that I recently received from Dresslily and that contains an item from the aforementioned wish list. But first of all, I'd like to mention the shipping time, which was just unbelievable. The package came from China to Europe in less than a week, which is an absolute thumbs up.

However, this cute rug is small, about 40x120cm, - which is exactly stated on the article's homepage -, it is perfect next to the bed or sofa. Its surface is nice soft, the underside is antiskid and the pattern looks amazing. I am already thinking about ordering this floor mat in a different style.

This projection lamp is just dreamy, and I am already in love with it. When the cover is on, it is a nice lamp and without it, it becomes a starry projector. You can select the colours and also choose a rotation mode. It not only works with battery, you can also connect it to your laptop with an USB cable. My room was covered with stars, I just love it and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone.

It wasn't planned but I ended up with a white bundle of clothes. This shirt is different than the ones, I have seen before. It has two layers and the bottom one is lace like the sleeves. 

(Find it here.)

The midi skirt has a nice floral motive, but I still have to figure out, how to wear it to look the best.

(Find it here.)

Last but not least, a romper that has a very unique cut and the sleeves are amazing.

(Find it here.)

All items were true to size and the only drawback that the romper is see through at the bottom, so seems to be best on the beach.

ENGLISH

August ist the month of star-gazing. The weather is good, mostly it is not so cloudy, so you can have a great view. (If not, you still have the opportunity to watch starry patterns online, for example on Dresslily.)
I don't know if it is just me, but I just like to stand in front of my open window in the evening, putting my elbows on the windowsill and looking at the stars, finding the Big Dipper, and when I am not in the big city, even the Little Dipper. They look the same everywhere and that’s why they can make you feel a little safer, wherever you are, even miles away from your home.
I love the stars, you could even guess it from my blog design, and that’ what inspired today's wish list. All items are from Dresslily and I really hope you like them.

DEUTSCH

August ist der Monat der Sternenguckerei. Das Wetter ist gut, meistens ist es nicht so bewölkt, so dass man eine tolle Aussicht haben kann. Ich weiß nicht, ob es nur ich ist, aber ich mag es einfach, vor meinem offenen Fenster am Abend zu stehen, die Ellbogen auf die Fensterbank zu legen und auf die Sterne zu schauen, den Großen Bär zu finden, und wenn ich nicht in der großen Stadt bin, sogar den Kleinen Bär. Sie sehen überall gleich aus und genau deshalb können sie dich ein wenig sicherer fühlen lassen, wo auch immer du bist, selbst Meilen von deiner Zuhause entfernt.
Ich liebe die Sterne, man könnte es sogar von meinem Blog-Design erraten, und genau das hat die heutige Wunschliste inspiriert. Alle Artikel sind von Dresslily und ich hoffe, dass du sie magst.

P&P style made... a Johnny Depp inspired bracelet

✯ Hello shiny stars! ✯ 

It has been a while since my last DIY-post although I had some projects during the last months too.

Today I will share a bracelet with you - that I made in the summer, but somehow always forgot to post it. 

I saw a photo of Johnny Depp and I became aware of his bracelet. It was a beaded one so I thougt, I will make it myself, which I did and I still love it.

All you need is beads and a rubber band.

I used simple beads and star beads but the "original" had some skull beads as well.

There are lot of colors, lot of variations so you can make many different bracelets with this simple method. Just let your imagination run wild.  :)

Make your own bracelet and as always, I would love to see your work, so send me your photo at pandpmode@gmail.com.  :) 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Lots of love,

E
