🍂 Hey loves,

Do you feel it too? That little crispness in the air that makes you want to pull your sweater a bit closer and sip something cinnamon-y? Fall has officially tiptoed in, and I swear it’s bringing a wave of the coziest nostalgia. I don’t even know why – ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠but every falling leaf feels like a little memory (?).

Right now, I’m totally living in my autumn daydreams. Picture this with me: a chunky burgundy knit sweater (the kind you could nap in), a soft suede bag swinging at my side, and sunnies that give “main character strolling through fallen leaves” vibes. It’s all on my wishlist, and I’m manifesting every single piece into my reality –⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ because why not?

You know when you have an outfit all picked out, ready for the stylish weekend... and then the sky decides it’s not on your side? Yeah, that was me this weekend. I had this look lined up for a cute outing, maybe a stroll, maybe a little espresso date. But nope, the rain came down like it was something personal (you OK, heaven?). But did that stop me? Pfft. Please. As if.
Cue: fashion moment, but make it indoors. 🔥

Some places just hit different.

 And for me, Japan is one of those soul places.
I’ve already been twice — once in the winter (brrr ❄️), once in the beginning of summer — but both times, I left feeling like I barely scratched the surface. And I’ve been thinking about going back... a lot. So here’s a little breakdown of why my heart (and suitcases) are ready to head back to Japan — maybe even soon?

This week, I met up with my fellow content creator friend for a little coffee date and cute snaps — just how we like it. We specifically met up with the plan to take some nice analog pics, and oh my god, we ended up at the most wonderful Japan-themed café in Prague 6 called Café SOFA. We had never been there before, and I’m telling you — it was the best decision. The space? Super spacious and cozy, you literally get your own little bubble at your table. It didn’t feel crammed or loud at all. The staff was kind, and I ordered a sakura strawberry matcha which was just as dreamy as it looks! 🌸🍓💚 Total 10/10 experience for a first visit. (Play this as you scroll — it’s the vibe.)

Hello my lovely readers! 💛

Today is officially the warmest day of the year so far — a glorious 29°C (that’s 84°F for my American friends!) — and I could feel the summer just begging to be welcomed. Naturally, I reached for an outfit that perfectly matches this energy: sunny, soft, fresh, and just a little bit playful.

Hi friends,

Let’s cozy up and talk about something that’s both incredibly simple and quietly powerful: journaling.

You’ve probably heard the buzz—"You should journal!"—but maybe it feels like another thing on your to-do list. Or you’ve tried, stared at the blank page, and closed the notebook. I hear you. But journaling doesn’t have to be a chore. In fact, it can be a sweet, daily ritual that becomes one of your most grounding and joyful habits. 💖

The weather’s finally warming up and it’s starting to feel like summer is tiptoeing in, isn’t it? This past weekend, I found myself gravitating toward my comfy, airy dress—the kind you just want to float around in when you’re at home, windows open, and the breeze smells like green things waking up. Light, breathable fabrics have been saving me lately—linen, soft cotton, gauzy blends that feel like wearing a gentle cloud. One of those lazy afternoons, I threw on one of the new necklaces I just made—amber-colored mineral chips with this adorable little golden starfish. I was showing it to my boyfriend in the living room and next thing I know, he’s casually clicking away with the camera he just happened to be holding (as he does). And honestly? The snaps turned out kinda cute. Totally unplanned, but that’s when the best stuff happens, right?

I love when jewelry can be the focal point of a simple outfit. This necklace is such a statement piece. It totally elevated my easy home look—just a flowy dress, no shoes, messy hair, and a piece that sparkles just enough. I’ll share the photos below so you can get a peek. If you’re curious to see more of the pieces from ViolkaBeads, come hang out with me on Instagram. And if you don’t see the one you’ve fallen in love with on my Etsy, just shoot me a direct message. I’m happy to ship worldwide and I love connecting with people over a shared love of sparkly things. ✨
