THE CAFE SCENES // travel lifestyles

AL FRESCO , BITTE!

Outdoor cafes everyone usually thinks of Paris for its many street lined cafes , but I will say this city has some amazing outdoor cafes and restaurants to enjoy in the summer season. The city is famous for its coffee houses such as the Sacher , Demel, the Schwartz Kamel and many others. The history of cafe houses goes a long way back. Coffee was first made after the defeat of the invasion of the Turks in Austria in the 1600s. Once the battle was over and the army left, they had left behind sacks of coffee beans which were then used to make coffee. So that was the start of the cities cafes and love of coffee.

From the small simple snack spots ,to some great ice cream places, coffee houses and restaurants there are so many . Some are set up along the old danube or new part . There is no shortage of outdoor patios in the city and great places for Al Fresco dining in the city center or at the parks and even at the zoo-

A weekend to explore some of these cafes is not a bad idea!
So lets go!!

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

Doing Denim I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable. For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short. I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days. Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it. Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets. There are so many ways to style a denim dress. A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

SPRING LOOK //Fashion , Style, Spring

Time for some color Finally the weather is warmer and can wear lighter clothes. I especially like to start the summer/spring with some color . One of my favorites is a colorful knit on I bought years ago , a Liz Clairborn design. It’s a piece that just say spring is here. After a long , cold winter of wearing mostly dark or muted shades it’s nice to bring out something bright a cheery.
