The four masters of disguise from the Boi-ing family:
My blunt opinion:

Despite knowing better, I used to cheat myself with the sweet illusion that if I eat crisps in the dark and finish my bar of chocolate without leaving evidence, my body wouldn’t betray myself. The fact that I have been a Vegetarian since my teenage years helped me to stay in shape and people were often surprised when I told them that I don’t do any sports. But with the years I realized it would get harder to stay in shape and even more important: Healthy. So time for a rapid change!
A little bit more than a month ago, in a sudden rush of motivation, I picked a personal trainer. This was the trigger to more than I thought: I am doing sports twice a week with a discipline that astonishes myself, and for the first time in my life I miss something when I have to skip a lesson (which only happens if there is a very good excuse).
I exchanged cereals and marmalade bread with smoothies, stopped drinking almost entirely, and my diet turned (almost) Vegan. I find a lot of pleasure in discovering the new (and therefore exciting) world of sports clothing and healthy nutrition.
I am still struggling with certain exercises, but it fills me with pride when I master something I wouldn’t have a few months ago. My boyfriend says he can already see a change – and I am very motivated to go on and feel good in the meanwhile. I’ll tell you more about my training schedule soon, now I’m off for a run, of course, dressed in pink and purple 😉
Go Sara go!
My Outfit:
Yay, the new La Petite Box arrived a few days ago, and I couldn’t wait to show you! This months theme is “Summer Lovin” and they thought of everything required for my favourite season of the year.
For all of you who haven’t heard of La Petite Box: It’s a trendy Swiss lifestyle subscription box. The lovely team of La Petite Box is very dedicated to surprise you again and again. Every month they bring exclusive beauty products, fashion, food, and home decoration items right to your mailbox.
This is what I found in my “Summer Lovin” box:
Pompom Sandals by virgule
Aren’t those the ultimate beach shoes? I love how cheerful and bright the pompoms are and will pack them for my holidays.
“Be Happy” Wristband
Another colourful item, yay! This wristband with its tassels goes very well with the sandals and completes a cool summer look. It’s supposed to be a lucky charm as well. Can’t tell you yet if it brings luck or not, but it looks pretty for sure. 😉
Curaprox Black is White Toothpaste and Toothbrush
My one and only toothpaste! Since I got my first tube for a blogger review two years ago, I haven’t used nother one. Unlike another kind of toothpaste it’s black, but it surprisingly keeps my teeth white and has a fresh lime-mint taste.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Aqua Gel
This face cream is indeed a hydro boost, and this is what the skin needs during the warm summer months! I mix it with a drop of face oil for even better results since my skin tends to be quite dry.
Batiste Dry Shampoo Original
Another favourite of mine, not just for festivals. This spray keeps the hair fresh on days when you don’t wash it (helps against colour fading in my case). As well I love to use it as a styling tool because it adds volume and gives hold.
Ultrasun After Sun
Wow, I am impressed: I just binned an empty bottle of after sun and here comes a new one. Since my skin is very sensitive, it’s essential to care for it in summer. I never leave the house without sun cream and when I go to the beach aftersun is a must. When you apply it you can feel how your skin relaxes. This one is even without critical contents, mineral oils, emulsifiers, and preservatives.
Martini Bianco & Thomas Henry Tonic Water
La Petite Box says cheers to summer and suggests to do that with a Martini Tonic. All you need for a little bit of Italian dolce vita in your life is 7cl of Martini, 7cl of tonic, ice cubes and a slice of lime. Sounds refreshing, doesn’t it?
Places Magazine
A lovely designed Swiss magazine about fashion accessories and beauty since we all need something to read at the beach.

I sincerely enjoy tropical places wherever I am. When you start looking for them you realize, there are more of them than you thought. I love to visit beautiful parks, tropical gardens, and greenhouses. One of my favourite places in the world is Kew Gardens, one of the (or even THE) biggest botanical collection in the world.
Palm trees and cacti have a certain magical attraction on me. When I am in a tropical garden, I can trick myself into thinking it‘s holidays.
Therefore I love best to wear my holiday looks and this year I am especially fond of jumpsuits. This all-in-one garment is comfortable to wear, and it comes in various fits for all body shapes.
My favourite jumpsuit style is fitted at the waist and with long, wide legs. Combined with slim high heels this style fakes killer legs. A jumpsuit look doesn‘t necessarily require a lot of jewellery (especially if you go for a printed fabric) but I couldn‘t resist wearing my new flamingo fascinator. After all flamingos like palm trees too, everybody knows. Botanical garden I love you and I love to dress up to visit you!
