This delicious cocktail recipe is being presented This delicious cocktail recipe is being presented to you by this killer vintage Valentino blazer (online now). You guys know how much I love mixing vintage and cocktails and with the amazing designer collection now online, I just couldn’t resist to bring them together. Of course I had to bring in my girl @emwildphoto in to make the idea come to life, ain’t she talented? ⁣

It’s that time of year to start sharing festive cocktail recipes and if there’s one thing that is very connected to this season it’s cranberry. For this cocktail I used 100% pure cranberry juice, which I highly recommend over the sweetened more common version. Let’s get right to it shall we?⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣
⁣
3cl Amaretto⁣
2cl Whiskey (I use Maker’s Mark)⁣
2cl Pure Cranberry juice (the real 100% kind, not the sweetened punch that’s most common)⁣
2cl Simple syrup⁣
2cl Lemon juice (fresh pressed)⁣
⁣
Pour all ingredients into your favourite cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then pour everything into your glass including the ice. Garnish with a few fresh cranberries or a slice of lemon. Enjoy! ⁣

This week I added 27 new pieces to trigandtony.com This week I added 27 new pieces to trigandtony.com, but these pieces are not like anything else that I have sold before. These gems were not bought in a shop or found online. They come right from the closet of the beautiful Sophie. What you are about to read is a true story that I wrote with information I got from Sophie’s son and daughter in law. Only her name has been changed. ⁣
⁣
This is the story of Sophie and her magical secret closet of designer treasures.⁣
⁣
Nestled in the heart of the enchanting city of Hamburg lived a woman by the name of Sophie. A lover of art and music Sophie would often sit at her grand piano playing Chopin to perfection. The classical melodies would dance through their impressive family home and delight her husband and children. But Sophie had a secret that no one knew about. Hidden away deep in her closet was a collection of one of a kind designer treasures. A fashion lover’s paradise, a dream for the aesthetically inclined. They hung together for years preserved and untouched, only few having the opportunity to see the world and come out and play. All the greats where there like Chanel, Gucci, Armani, Valentino, Prada & Christian Dior. ⁣
⁣
Although it was no secret that on holiday she loved to stroll famous shopping streets like the Champs-Élysée in Paris, there was never any indication that she did anything more than browse, as no bags were ever in sight. ⁣
⁣
It wasn’t until many years later, after her passing that her family would find this treasure trove of luxury fashion. The collection was so grand that even after everyone had chosen their favorite pieces to keep, there were still many gems left. ⁣
⁣
The 27-piece collection I have been talking about the last few days, is made up of those pieces. Many in such pristine condition you would never know they are secondhand. They are investment pieces that can be cherished for a lifetime. They are high quality and timeless. ⁣
⁣
They are available now on trigandtony.com, and they are very ready to be loved by you.⁣

The 24 hour flash sale is still on, but I thought The 24 hour flash sale is still on, but I thought I would take a little break from talking about it to share a cocktail recipe with you. This recipe is another one that I had at my last event (before corona came for a visit).⁣
⁣
It’s a caramel almond dream and is a great dessert cocktail. I love using almond milk as a cream/milk alternative in cocktails, it froths so nicely and adds a nice flavour. So let’s get right to it shall we?⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣
⁣
4cl Vodka⁣
4cl Almond milk (unsweetened) ⁣
2cl Caramel syrup⁣
Salted caramel toffee and edible glitter spray for garnish ⁣
⁣
Pour all ingredients into your favourite cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then strain into a glass. Garnish with a piece of salted caramel toffee and a spritz of edible glitter spray (I found mine in the baking section of Edeka). Enjoy! ⁣
⁣
And you may already be able to tell by now that this photo is another collaboration with the ever so talented ⇨⇨⇨ @emwildphoto ⇦⇦⇦ ⁣

Just a reminder that all items in the shop will be Just a reminder that all items in the shop will be 20% off tonight at midnight for 24hrs. This means that all day tomorrow (Sunday November 15th) you will have the chance to snag a vintage bargain from Trig & Tony. This beautiful coat for example will be reduced from €150 to €120. It’s 100% wool, made in USA, the color is beyond beautiful and the lining is a dream. A lot (like a lot a lot) of people have been interested in this coat but because of it’s size (DE 46) it is still in the shop. This is literally a one of a kind piece and whoever this coat fits will be very very lucky. 💙⁣
⁣
Oh and I was looking through my archived stories and found the story I posted right before and after I found this beauty in Chicago (swipe right on this post to watch the vid). I was specifically NOT looking for coats because they take up too much space and weight in my suitcase. I was almost out of the shop when this blue colour caught my eye, needless to say, I couldn’t resist it.⁣
⁣
If you think it might be for you please check the measurements listed on the product page to see if it will fit. Best is always to measure a coat that fits you well (in this case make sure to check the shoulders, arm length and full length) and then compare that to the measurements given. ⁣

Let me get right to the point. I love wool. In cas Let me get right to the point. I love wool. In case some of you out there still need convincing I thought I would share some of the reasons I love this natural warm AF fibre.⁣
⁣
🌿 It keeps you hella warm and cozy, which makes winter far more tolerable.⁣
⁣
🌿 It’s moisture-wicking & breathable. One of the things I love about wool is it’s ability to keep you warm without making you feel like you’re wearing a sauna. The moisture you give off in the form of sweat evaporates from your skin into the air, rather than getting trapped inside the fabric. This also means it hardly ever takes on any B.O. smells, which leads to my next point.⁣
⁣
🌿 You don’t need to wash it as much as other fabrics. I usually wear a thin cotton layer underneath and hardly ever (I mean it, like hardly ever) wash my wool sweaters. (I do however carefully wash all sweaters that are in the shop so that you can start fresh). ⁣
⁣
🌿 It’s flame retardant. Not that you need to think about this as much for your sweaters, but a great quality for your throw blankets (especially if you love cozy blanket and candle situations).⁣
⁣
And, despite what you may think, not all wool is itchy. For example, merino, angora, cashmere and lambswool all come with little to no itchiness. Also, wool blends are also less itchy (if at all). If I have a wool sweater that does make me itch, I just make sure to wear a thin long sleeved cotton shirt underneath. Please, for the love of all things woolly do not wear a polyester shirt underneath, please, please, or you will sweat your tush off.⁣
⁣
Now before you run out and buy a bunch of wool for your wardrobe please beware that there are some unsustainable and unethical practices that take place in the sourcing of this lovely fibre. If you do buy it, either buy it second hand or make sure you absolutely trust who you’re buying from. Greenwashing is real y’all. ⁣
⁣
The photos above are just a selection of the delicious wool pieces currently online. Happy browsing!⁣

This weeks cocktail is another perfect one for fal This weeks cocktail is another perfect one for fall. It also comes with the delicious Canadian delicacy known as maple syrup. 🍁😋⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣
⁣
4cl Whiskey (I use @makersmark) 
2cl Lemon juice (fresh pressed)⁣
2cl Maple syrup⁣
Ginger beer⁣
Pumpkin spice⁣
⁣
Pour the whiskey, lemon juice and maple syrup into a cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then pour everything into your glass including the ice and fill with ginger beer (just to top it up, you don’t want to use too much or it becomes overpowering). Stir and garnish with a dash of pumpkin spice and a lemon wedge. Enjoy! ⁣

(If you don’t have pumpkin spice you can make it by combining ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves).

Well guys, we’re about to go back into lockdown, Well guys, we’re about to go back into lockdown, but this time it feels different, by now we’re all a bit more used to Zoom calls and comfy clothes. This does not however mean that all the clothes we would normally wear to the office should collect dust. When you really start to think more about versatility in your wardrobe you will realize how much more you can get out of your clothes when you know all the ways you can wear them. ⁣
⁣
Let’s take this 100% cotton sweater pictured above, you could easily wear this outfit to work or out for a coffee. Now, take away the white button up and earrings, switch out the pants for some yoga pants, comfy jeans or sweats and you’ve got yourself the perfect work from home outfit. ⁣
⁣
And the coat, well lockdown or no lockdown everyone needs to keep warm when they go outside and this coat will keep you warm, stylish and fabulous. ⁣
⁣
By the way, both the sweater and coat are available online now, just tap the photo for all info and links to the online shop. ⁣
⁣
Also, I was thinking of doing a reel showing how clothes can be worn for home office vs out and about (work, coffee, dinner etc) What do you think? Should I get on that? ⁣

Happy Monday! Another week, another recipe. Ok, wh Happy Monday! Another week, another recipe. Ok, whoops it’s Monday and this post was supposed to come on Friday but I really needed to prioritize some serious organizational tasks over the last few days. I really only started posting regular content here as of June and I have been creating everything as I go. This means on Fridays I would photograph that weeks cocktail, edit it, write the caption and post on the same day (this was also the same for most other content I’m sharing). This was ok for the start because I was slowly figuring out exactly how I want to share everything, but of course this is not ideal long term. This weekend I sat down and put all ideas on post-its and poster board (yeah I’m old school), and a real plan plan of action started to form. Real goals and structure so that I can make this dream of mine a reality. For those of you who have been following me for a long time, supporting me as things change and move around. Big ❤️ to you! ⁣
⁣
Ok, so let’s get to this recipe already! Fall is nut season and we’ve already been out harvesting some around the city (yes folks, you can find plenty of trees around the city if know where to look). And, harvesting nuts from trees around where you live is the cheapest, freshest and most sustainable way to get yourself some nuts. Anyways I chose hazelnut for this cocktail (I used syrup from @monin_europe but you could also make your own). Then I decided to use clementines since they pair nice with hazelnuts and are also a fall treat. 🍂 This cocktail is called the Clementine Clutch. 👛 ⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣
⁣
4cl Vodka⁣
4cl Clemetine juice fresh pressed⁣
3cl Lemon⁣
2cl Hazelnut syrup⁣
⁣
Put all ingredients into your favourite cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then pour everything into your glass including the ice. Garnish with an orange peel. Enjoy! ⁣

Sometimes things look pretty polished on Instagram Sometimes things look pretty polished on Instagram but I can assure you, behind the scenes of this shop is just a girl sitting on the couch with messy hair, sweats, a laptop and a huge cup of coffee trying to figure out how the heck she’s gunna get everything done. Sometimes, (more like often) I just don’t manage it all, which is why I am sitting here writing a post on Saturday that should have been posted by Tuesday or Wednesday and I still have another post to go. Oh and the post I still need to do, is this weeks cocktail recipe, which I still need to take a photo of, and I need take a bunch of photos of the clothes I want to upload to the website, and I haven’t even showered yet, and and and and… but it’s okay, each day that I don’t manage to get everything done, I tell myself that it’s about progress not perfection, either that or I hide under the covers with my cat and watch Netflix. Just depends on the day. Well, that’s all for now, wishing you a beautiful Saturday vintage lovers, I gotta go take some pictures! ⁣

I was going to save this recipe until it got a lit I was going to save this recipe until it got a little bit colder out, but then I figured it’s better to share it now so you have it for those first really cold days. This cozy drink is actually something that we make at home all winter (I only add the rum on special occasions). If you like to stay warm, healthy and full of vitamin C over the winter, then this is definitely the drink for you. ⁣

Layering your clothes is a great way to get more w Layering your clothes is a great way to get more wear out of each piece. On the outside this open-knit sweater may look like it’s made for summer, it’s 100% cotton and the spacing between the knit lets a nice breeze in, so you may be thinking that it won’t keep you warm. But there’s a reason I kept it online when I took other summer pieces down. This sweater is actually great for all seasons, you just have to know how layer it. A long sleeved button-up will keep you warm in fall and a layer of merino wool or cashmere would be perfect for keeping you even warmer in winter. I was thinking of doing a little IGTV video to show you how to style sweaters for all seasons. Is that something you’d be into? Let me know in the comments.⁣

So today is the last day of #secondhandseptember a So today is the last day of #secondhandseptember and honestly I had so many ideas of the type of content I wanted to share with you over the month. Of course, a lot of it I haven’t gotten the chance to create yet, thanks to the fact that I am just one human doing the job of many. But your engagement and messages throughout the month have motivated and inspired me to talk a bit more about the topic of sustainability, which for many is the reason to start shopping more secondhand. ⁣
⁣
Believe it or not, it was because of Trig & Tony that I really got into this topic in the first place. I did a lot of research before launching my shop and found myself reading about how much of a negative effect the fashion industry was having on the environment. The same industry that I had been naively supporting for so many years. It was enough to make me stop buying fast fashion full stop. In the meanwhile I started a sustainability community here in Düsseldorf called Sustainable Düsseldorf and over the last couple years have been asked to talk about sustainability in fashion by different organizations around the city and even at a local high school (yes, I gave the talk in German, which was hella scary). Anyways, I do know a thing or two and now that I see how interested you are as well, I plan on sharing more with you. Secondhand September may be over, but the conversation about sustainability is definitely not. ⁣
⁣
Oh and you guessed it, this one of a kind blazer is available online now. It’s a freakin beaut and is just waiting for the right person to love it for years to come. (You can get a direct link to it on my website by tapping the photo).⁣

It would only be fitting that on the week of the g It would only be fitting that on the week of the giveaway with @rinocero_gin that I also make a cocktail with with this delicious elixir. I wanted to do something with few ingredients so you can really get the taste of the gin. I chose Lillet Rosé because it’s a bit fruity but not overly sweet and pairs nicely with the citrus notes of the gin. There’s no need for a shaker today as this cocktail will be stirred. And although it was important to get a real nice shot of the cocktail glass that will be a part of the giveaway (shout out to @emwildphoto for this killer photo), I actually wouldn’t use this glass for this drink. I would rather use a rocks glass. But guys, how awesome is that photo?! Ok, moving on to the recipe:⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
3cl Gin (Obviously @rinocero_gin)⁣
3cl Lillet Rosé (@lillet.de)⁣
One thin slice of grapefruit⁣
⁣
Add Gin & Lillet Rosé to a large glass & fill with plenty of ice. Stir for about 20 seconds with a spoon (a bar spoon would be best but you can also use any long thin spoon, like what you would use for a milkshake or latte macchiato). Stir in a smooth circular motion with the spoon staying between the ice and the glass. Strain over fresh ice in a rocks glass (bonus points if the glass is chilled). Then add a thin slice of grapefruit or if you prefer just the peel. Enjoy!⁣
⁣
𝗪𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐫?⁣
⁣
A general rule of thumb is that cocktails made entirely of spirits should be stirred and ones that use juices, citrus, egg white or anything creamy, should be shaken. And guys, please don’t add anything carbonated into a shaker… I think that goes without saying but just in case, please. don’t. do. it. Always add carbonated drinks at the end after mixing.⁣

This is a little throwback photo from last year wh This is a little throwback photo from last year when I put the shop online for the first time. It was fall and I remember it was an unusually hot day. I had to be careful not to get many people in the background since everyone was in summer wear while I was in full on winter layers. Got some fun looks on that day. 🙈⁣

We are still enjoying the last warm days here in D We are still enjoying the last warm days here in Düsseldorf, but slowly the nights are getting cooler and the days shorter. We all know what that means, fall is coming. I have been ready for this for a while and have been building a wonderful collection of sweaters and warm layers just for you. This killer blazer is one of the pieces added just this week. It’s a great one for layering on fall days. It’s a size 42 but has a good cut to be worn oversized. Wanna take a closer look? Tap the photo for a link to it, or the lovely cashmere sweater vest underneath it. ⁣

Friday is here! It’s been a long but successful Friday is here! It’s been a long but successful week in the Trig & Tony living room boutique & lounge. Lots of new content for the website and of course a new cocktail recipe. Because it seems like there’s a bundle of great weather headed our way, I decided to do another refreshing cocktail that’s perfect to drink under the warm sun. Grapes are in season (as any of my wine drinking friends surely know), so I decided they should be the main ingredient. I found a really nice bottle of white grape juice at the supermarket, I had some Monin mojito syrup in the cupboard (I have a lot of @monin_europe flavours, if you haven’t already noticed), then I just looked out for whatever else we had in the fridge. Todays cocktail is called Draped in Grape.⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
4cl White Rum⁣
4cl White grape juice (@van_nahmen)⁣
2cl Mojito syrup ⁣
2cl Lemon ⁣
Sparkling water⁣⁣
⁣
Put all ingredients (except the water) into your favourite cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then pour everything into your glass including the ice, fill to the top with sparkling water. Garnish with a few mint leaves and a lemon slice. Enjoy! ⁣

The fall collection will start filling trigandtony The fall collection will start filling trigandtony.com starting Monday. 🍂 And yes, this AMAZING cape will be a part of the first batch that goes online.
Over the last couple months I have been slowing bu Over the last couple months I have been slowing building a collection of wonderful vintage purses to share with you. Until now, I only put one online, since it fit with the summer collection. Now I am ready to start sharing more of these beautiful pieces with you. Before I do, I just wanted talk about three things (aside from style of course) that are very important to me when it comes to choosing which bags are right for the shop: ⁣
⁣
Condition, cleanliness, & quality.⁣
⁣
I’ve been shopping vintage and secondhand for myself for many many years, I have also shopped in boutiques all around the world and one thing that I so often see is a lack of quality control. I hate when I find a curated shop and see a cool bag or coat or whatever and then I open it up, or put my hands in the pocket and find a tissue, or crusty stain 🤮. I mean, in a thrift store, I get it, but in a curated shop, for me this is unacceptable and it happens way too often. When you buy a bag from me, you can expect signs of wear (this is secondhand after all) but my standards are quite high. I do not want my customers to have the same experience I’ve had for many years, no crusty surprises. Just like with the clothes, I want you guys to feel like you are buying something new or at least as close to new as possible. ⁣
⁣
If I’m speaking your language, then buckle up, cause I will be doing a purse drop in the next couple weeks (and yes, this green stunner in the photo will be one of the first pieces to go online). Stay tuned!⁣

First of all thanks to everyone who participated i First of all thanks to everyone who participated in my little fig vs. plum poll in my stories yesterday. The winner with 74% was fig! After I went out and got some of these delicious juicy fruits I had a look around my kitchen to see what other ingredients I could use. This is what makes cocktail making fun. I found some almond cream tea, and I always have some lemons, then last but not least, a little vodka to make it complete. I really try not to use too many ingredients in my cocktails, it’s often simplicity that makes things most delicious. So now I introduce to you the “Go Fig or Go Home” Thats at least the name I give it now. I might update some of my cocktails names to be more connected to fashion, what do you think?⁣
⁣
Ingredients:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
4cl Vodka⁣
2cl Fig Simple syrup⁣⁣
2cl Almond cream tea (if you don’t have this kind of tea you can try it with a nice fruit tea)⁣
2cl Lemon ⁣⁣
⁣
Put all ingredients into your favourite cocktail shaker, add ice, shake shake shake, then pour everything into your glass including the ice. Garnish with a spring of thyme or fresh ground pepper. Enjoy! ⁣
⁣
To make the fig syrup:⁣
⁣
Add 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar to a pot and bring to a boil. Add one fig chopped, simmer for 5 minutes, remove from heat and let sit covered for another 30 minutes. Strain figs and store in the fridge to cool. ⁣
⁣
*tip make sure you let the tea fully cool before using it in the cocktail so it doesn’t melt the ice and dilute the cocktail.⁣
