allons chez les bourgeois


legging & bangle Bijenkorf, long tank H&M, tunic ? (somewhere in Sicily), cardigan DIY, black pumps (you can't see them well on the picture) Tango, brooch vintage, alice band DIY

Alice band is made like this: elastic with a sequin thing on it wrapped around a black alice band, and there you go.



























A better view of the DIY cardigan (at a party, with H&M sequin dress, haven't got a picture of the whole outfit):

-and yes, I know this song is a bit cheesy, but it keeps playing over & over in my head so I just have to post it, I'm sorry

get carried away


























We all know it, Carrie can't do different from dressing amazing. You won't spot her in some threaded old sweater with worn-out sneakers. And not only when she goes out or meets with Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda: even when she's getting a magazine, she always looks fabulous. Especially- she never dresses down.
I particularly love all of the studded belts she uses in her outfits, her over-the-knee-stockings (so cute!), and the ruched jacket (left, below). Ofcourse, also the incredible heels she wears (do mention: the same ones on the pictures above in the middle, and below both pictures. Wow, even Carrie wears clothes (okay, they're shoes) several times!). And I won't do shortage to all of her dresses. Well, actually everything's just gorgeous.
All of these pictures are from Sex and the City, the movie.

It's theraputic somehow




It was soooo dark, and outside it's hailing. So crappy outfitpics, I'm sorry!

I just came back from the city, I got a golden bangle (see under) from my dearest bf, she bought it too. I like it because it's actually a leopard print, but than in the bangle. I also got this keychain (could use it as a necklace or brooch or something) with this Hindu god Shiva on it, think it's quite cool actually.

i don't mind, i lost my notion


Sorry, don't feel like talking today, and it's late- I have to learn a test in physics for tomorrow and choose a poem to declaim at Dutch. Actually wore this outfit with cut-off jeans shorts and tan booties, but couldn't wait to wear my ripped jeans. People asked me if they aren't cold, since the wind blows through ripped and holes, but I doesn't disturb me- I like some fresh air, haha.

scream and shout



My outfit today is not so special, dressed kind of effortless. Very nonchalant. But whatever, made a picture anyway.
This cardigan is actually a long cardigan, but I never really feel like wearing it. Now I found a way,







My birthday is on 17 June, and I'm already thinking about what to ask. Some designer sunglasses, bag, shoes? Though I'm not sure whether my parents will spend 500 dollars on a present. But nothing's wrong with dreaming, right?


What did/will you ask for your birthday?

“While clothes may not make the woman, they certainly have a strong effect on her self-confidence — which, I believe, does make the woman." - M.K.A.

When my Topshop tunic turned out to be quite the excact same color as my recently-fell-in-love-with-and-couldn't-resist-buying pumps, I was delighted. Love purple.
Would prefer this outfit with a studded belt though, but that one comes in later this week- can't wait to wear it on sooo many ways I already have in my mind.

we love to color.















I'm finally getting my Topshop double wrap studded belt! Already want it for so long.

And I'd also like that Chanel lipstick, but maybe I should find myself one a little cheaper. Do love the color though.

guilty pleasure

Friday I went on heelhunt in the city. My plan was to just loiter around, take a little look here & there and than make a deliberate decision.


My plan failed. I walked into H&M, spotted these beauties, tried them on only ónce, and there was no way back.



My mom was clearly not thát excited about the 10 cm heel, but I'm ignoring her. Love them!
