Camouflage and geometric things

This army and camouflage hype is going on for a while now and i liked it from the beginning. Especially because the very nice thing about camouflage print is that you can wear it with about everything. Simple black, neon, other prints and different fabrics. I got myself this camouflage vest in a very big size because i think this print looks most 'rebellious' when it's oversized. When it's worn in a small size it tends to lose its wild vibe if you ask me.

Oldskool sweater

Because of my exams i had so little time to post on my blog. But they're finished and it's time to relax now..finally. And what does that mean? Holidays, that's right :) Complete days off doing simply just what you want to do. No stress, no paperwork, no books and of course some time to post an outfit again..

New in | Detailed knit


I saw it and i had to have it! This salmon/beige coloured knit that i bought a couple of days ago. It's filled with details all over. It has beads, sequins and fur on it and shoulder pads on the inside which makes it kind of heavy. I can wear it chic and classy and it even keeps me warm, how great is that :o I bought it in a cute boutique in Amsterdam that sells all kind of exclusive items. Anyhow, a great item to add to my knit collection.

Inspiration | Lana del Rey

You've propably already heard of her. Young, pretty and fresh in the music industry; Lana del Rey. I think some of her songs are quite good to listen to and i like the fact that she is something else than todays typical pop princess. And i don't know about you, but there is something about her that kind of creeps me out..

Anyway, the thing that i do love about her is her nostalgic style. She's bringing back all these stylish items from the twentieth century and her hair always looks so cute and vintage. I absolutely say yes to this retro way of dressing. What about you?

Lazy Sunday with a neon touch

Really, i hardly see daylight lately. During these dark winterdays the sun rises so late and sets so early! The last couple of days i had a lot of stuff to do and if you're not a superfast person you just miss out daylight and you surely won't be able to take bright pictures. Anyway, today i just did it after a lazy day in the city and still i wasn't fast enough, and you can kind of see that it's getting dark ha ha. Silly me:)

New in | Gold items

I don't know if it's because of the bold and gold colour trend that's going on this winter, but i've trapped myself purchasing a lot of gold items lately, so i thought i would post about a couple of my latest gold purchases. The best thing about gold items is that you can combine them with any other colour and it will work out anyway! So please don't think it's just the colour black that works out with any colour, because it's certainly not the only 'neutral' colour. Or shall we say.. 'Gold is the new black'?

Leopard on a cold day

Did i tell you that my body is not designed for cold weather? Well, it's certainly NOT! I'm longing for sunshine and a summer heat to keep me warm and since i have to wait for that at least a couple of months, i will have to do it with furry, fluffy coats. I really wouldn't know what to do if these things would not exist. Thank God for furry, fluffy coats!! :o

Polka polkadot

I often have those moments when i have a party and i don't wanna get all dressed up chic and preppy. So i just decide to not take the party theme too serious and throw some creativity and fun in the whole thing. After all there isn't a law for dressing yourself in a certain way at a party. And if there was, i really wouldn't care.

Photoshoot for my header

I am currently working on the lay-out and header for my blog. So i decided to do a shoot and pick out the picture that fits my header the best.We eventually made a lot of photos and we turned out to have a lot of fun in the studio. I think Esmé did an amazing job as she just gets started as a photographer! Now let's wait and see which of the photos will end up on my header. :)

Keep doing that thing you do..

Did you notice the crazy leggings trend? I did, and i'm loving it! I saw them in all kinds of crazy, colourful prints and they remind me of the 90's when everyone used to walk around with these crazy things on. The crazier the better, and you're not supposed too think too much about how to combine them. Classy black or prints on prints. Let's get those fun 90's back and go get yourself one as fast as you can!

Inspiration | Cassie Ventura

Okay, so since these are cold cold days, i'm going to try to get you in a little bit of a summer mood. I found out about this super beautiful colourful shoot Cassie Ventura did and felt like showing you. Apart from the fact that i think Cassie is drop dead gorgeous in this shoot and i like the summer feeling this gives me, i am also overwhelmed by the style Cassie is rocking here.

The way items from very different styles are combined gives it a super creative look. Sporty, chic, sassy and flirty all come together here and i admit that i think it worked out perfectly! Everything together resulted in a couple of sultry and flirty photos. Just forget about these cold days for a minute or two..

Time to oversize

I don't know about you, but by the time winter is arriving i just feel like wearing big wool oversized things to keep me warm and cozy. As you will see, that's what i do :) And i know a lot of you feel the same! But no worries, you can still look stylish and feel warm and cozy at the same time. Since the stores are full of a lot of different giant and oversized sweaters, you have enough choice to pick the ones that fit you the best. Just sparkle it up with some accessories and heels!! and you are good to go ;)

Inspiration | Iris Apfel

I had to write a post about this inspiring lady! Stylish, fierce and outspoken. Yes, i'm talking about Iris Apfel, 91 years old and still rocking every red carpet like no other fashionista could. Iris Apfel is a business woman, interior-designer and style-icon. And as if that's not enough, she has her own jewelry line, make-up line, her own bag collection and recently launched a shoe collection. I think we could all learn from this lady; this old and still stealing the show with her outspoken, ethnic, boho sense of style. I just love it!

Autumn is here, and so am i..

That's one hell of a long time ago! Well, i'm back ;) Summerholidays, exams and all kinds of things have passed and made me neglect my blog a bit, unfortunately..  In the meantime beautiful autumn is clearly here and i love the colors that it shows us, so i thought i'd make a couple of nice pics with a good dose of leaves around me..

Petticoat

I'm certainly not a girly girl, but sometimes i just can't hold myself from wearing a very girly outfit. When i saw a very fashionable celebrity wearing a supercute petticoat i was insisted to find myself a similar one. It was just not as easy as i thought it would be. After searching on the internet for a whole while i finally found this cream handmade Laumet-London petticoat. I was so happy to finally receive it and wear it in my own style. I thought it was so pretty to wear the cream petticoat with these pink tones. And because i'm not thát girly, i had to break all these sweet things with this light bleached denim jacket and a black urban shirt. It turned out to be a balanced, not to sweet outifit. Because there was already a lot going on, i decided not to add too much accessories.

By the way, a couple of days ago i tried to get myself a dark purple-red hair colour by dying it with the cherry noir hairdye of Loreal Casting Crème gloss, but you can barely see anything of it. Just a very subtle red glow in the sunlight. My hair was probably too dark for it!

Superhuman


Sometimes i just don't want to spend too much time thinking about what to wear that day. I just pick out some comfortable items, combine them with each other and voilà, it turns out being a nice comfy outfit that also looks kind of effortless. That is what i had today. Since the weather wasn't that hot at all and even a little bit rainy, i felt like wearing this black maxi skirt. To brighten it up i combined it with a Super'wo'man cropped top that i bought in Dubai a while ago. The whole thing turned out to feel and look comfortable and stylish at the same time. I wore this gold nailpolish that i thought matched with this whole superman thing. I added the purse and wedges without even thinking about it. Well okay, i thought about it just for a moment. My red lipstick was the finishing touch and matched nice with my top.

Maybe this superman theme came up to me because of being inspired by the Olympics. I really admire these super athtletes for their strength and ambition. I would have loved being in London right now! In the end, any person could be a superhuman ;). You just have to believe in yourself!

Crème brûlée

I've been so obsessed with cropped tops lately, i would want to wear them with anything! The way they can be combined with cute high waisted pants and shorts makes me want to wear them everyday. You have them in all sizes, colours and fabrics and can be worn in a lot of different styles. On this lovely bright day i wore this cream crochet cropped top with a pair of nice beige pants. The necklace and clutch gave the outfit more bite and the suede black wedges that can be combined with almost everything finished the total look. I'm planning to purchase some more cute cropped tops to create some funky and sophisticated looks. With these hot days they would be so comfy and ideal!

Autumn in summer


Seriously, summer doesn't seem to find her way to Amsterdam. I think she lost track somewhere in France or something because this weather doesn't feel like summer at all! After a whole lot of rain and wind the sun found a chance to peek her way through the clouds for a couple of minutes. Of course i couldn't let this chance run ha ha . And after all, summer holidays started and i just finished my last exams so i haven't got any reason to complain; freedom is mine!

By the way, if summer doesn't come to me, i will go and find her because by the time it's august i will be in my favorite city Marrakech! Till then, i'll make the best of it in this cloudy place with some colourfull outfits. I combined this coral Zara blouse with some nice mint/silver pants that i got from H&M. The leather boots are H&M too and the black double belt is from Vila. The (too big) rings are from Primark and finished the whole thing up.

Stripes on a lazy sunday

I had such a relaxed and lazy sunday today. After waking up at a time that better can be left unsaid, i enjoyed a breakfast that i think took more than an hour. Everything went so slowly that it even looked like the sun didn't want to set today. So i decided to take advantage of it. After a drink with my cousin a couple of nice pictures could be taken.

I combined my H&M striped jacket with a purple Miss Selfridge shirt that's made of such a silky and comfortable fabric that i didn't want to take it off anymore. I wore this with black treggings with a leather detail. I love this treggings because of the million ways you can wear them in. I got the skin toned heels from New Look, the watch is DKNY and the pastel yellow H&M satchel completed the look.

'Cap'tivated

You know that moment you get when you seriously need a break and a plane ticket straight to the sun? Well, i have that moment right now. After all the studying and working i seriously need a nice couple of days on the beach. Get a nice dark tan, drink cocktails and don't think about nothing but.. well nothing! I'd looove that! For this reason i'm searching for a ticket to a sunny destination to escape Amsterdam for a little while.. In the mean time i have to do it with this crazy city and just stop complaining, it isn't that bad after all.

I wore my old-pink H&M blazer today with a black H&M cropped top. The jeans are from Mango and the shoes are from Keep. The cap is Genuine Merchandise and the bag is from Guess. I wore my silver Tiffany & Co. chain bracelet with it. The ring i got from Jutka & Riska, which is an amazing vintage shop in Amsterdam. I've heard that they are working on an online shop, so you can order lovely Jutka & Riska items from all over the world!

A pair of jeans on my shirt

It's sooo amazing how the sun can brighten up your day, literaly and figurly. On a sunny day everyone is smiling, birds are singing, children are playing in the streets and the sky is like a giant bright blue blanket. What should not be forgotten is that the coats can be left at home and big fuzzy sweaters can be replaced with light airy shirts. After a great day with my sister and friend we enjoyed some delicious icecream and a couple of sunny pictures could be taken. And the good news is the weather forecast is promising a whole sunny week, which is kind of unique in Amsterdam ha ha.

I wore a tanktop from H&M with a nice vintage silver collar. I wore the black pants from The Sting in a kind of urban style with the tank. It can be worn in a very chic way too, but i decided to do it this way now. My brown/orange heels that you've already seen before were my lucky numbers today. The chain bracelet is from Tiffany & Co. and the yellow nail polish is from Miss Sporty. My red lipstick could've not been missed!

A splash of gold in Paris

A couple of days ago i visited the breathtaking city Paris. It's amazing how inspiring and classy a city can be. Paris is known for it's rich history of art and architecture and of course one of the most well known fashioncities. There is so much to see and one day is certainly not enough to be able to see everything. You have to stay there for at least a weekend. We took long walks through romantic and dreamy parks,  shopped till we dropped in the world famous street Avenue des Champs-Élysées, ate Macarones and delicious French croissants on a terrace near the Eiffel tower. During the day the sun shined fully and during the evening it started to rain and that made the city even more romantic than it already was. I had such a great day with my friends and i'm certainly planning to go back to Paris some day.

I wore a gold H&M sweater in Paris with my Indian Rags bleached shirt. I got the black leather glovelettes from Bijou Birgitte and the emerald ring from H&M. The black shorts and the black blazer are from H&M too(i realize now how much i shop in H&M ha ha)! I wore a gold nail polish from Catrice and a bright red lipstick on my lips which i think completed the outifit.

Green stone collar

I bought this stunning green stone collar and i just couldn't wait to wear it, although i thought of a thousand ways to combine it. It can be worn at a party and casual too! So today i finally grabbed it out of my closet and wore it with these Zara pants that i love. It's so comfortable and can be worn in so much ways. I broke the romantic baroque vibe of the collar with a bleached urban Indian Rags shirt. The high suede brown/orange Cafe Moda heels made the complete picture. I think the whole thing came out preppy and nonchalant at the same time. I decided not to wear any more accessories to let the collar stand out. Oh, i got the collar from my favourite accesory store Primark. I can't wait to purchase more of these gorgeous collars! :).

I found your nose, it was in my business.

It was such a lovely and sunny day in Amsterdam. I had a lot to do but when the sun shines that's not a problem at all. Sunshine makes everything good don't you think? After all i got some time to make some nice pictures in the park. Even though i had a very busy day i decided to wear some nice heels i got from a vintage store here in Amsterdam. The rest of my outfit was pretty comfortable and light. The knitted vest is a hand made present i like soo much and  got from a friend. I even got it in a nice pink color too, so i have two of these guys! The bag i got from Primark. I love this store because you can purchase a lot of nice accessories and even shoes and for a very good price too! The jeggings are from H&M and the scarf i got from Six. I must say i started to feel my feet at the end of this very busy day. But when you're a heel soldier even the busiest days don't stop you from wearing high heels. You just go on like you're wearing the most comfortable shoes in the world!

It's about time..

I've been thinking about starting my own fashion blog for a while now, so here it finally is: my first post! I would love to inspire people with my perspectives and thoughts about fashion and style. I'll post my outfits, cool trends, things that inspire me and just nice stylish things that i like. Hope you'll enjoy!

So this is what i wore today. The items are all kind of basic so i mixed and matched them to a colourfull and springy outfit. It was still kinda cold for the bare legs but i just can't wait for the summer to come, so when i saw a couple rays of sun i just couldn't let this cute skirt laying in my closet. The skirt is from H&M, the blazer is Calvin Klein, the heels are from Primark and the t-shirt i got from Bershka. The ring i also got from primark. I think i'll wait with exploiting my summer wardrobe because the temperature is still around 10 degrees and the sun already disapeared. That's NO weather for cute purple skirts ha ha. But i can't say i'm not superduper excited about the summer te come : D.
