I wondered when Birkenstock would break into beauty — given the brand's heyday and the obscene open door to every brand starting their own beauty offering (ugh) — felt like it was only a matter of time. Let's see how long it lasts...

Happy weekend! xx

You were ahead of the game there! I have to admit, there’s definitely a connect for me between living in my Arizonas and veeeery dry heels, and Germans are great about foot care and such, so I’ll report back when I’ve had a chance to try (I’m in my Bostons now, although even their UK autumn days are numbered! 🥶) Have a fab weekend!! Hugs across the pond! Xxxx

Enjoy the birding. The absolute best hobby I have ever done! Calming and also great for the brain to learn bird ID markers and their songs

Oh that’s great to hear that I’m in great company! And such a good point about the brain training 👏 - win-win!! (And to your point, the robin song! SO beautiful.)

Nothing more better for snuggling down to the temperature change than a teddy bear dressing gown/robe. Mine is at the ready when the house is feeling cold but can’t “ bear “ to turn up the thermostat.🥶🧸

Oh, I’m so pleased you like it, too – that means I’m in very stylish company! 😃 What I like about the slightly thinner wraparound ones, is that you don’t end up getting that kind of bulky dressing gown/robe feeling? 🤷‍♀️ Thank you so much for reading. ❤️

I love that we love the same thing. I agree with you on the bulky part, and I know they might not be too practical on a windy day. But, the coat is stylish!

It’s so funny, I’m looking outside the kitchen window here as I tap this, and it’s super-windy, wet and decidedly autumnal! BIG warm 🤗! XOXO

I loved it, and totally agree with you - I feel like it's my less hardcore version of the crack of dawn cold water swims that my friends get up to (plus birdsong, and ☕️!). XO

Birdsong is way better than cold water - I’m with you!
