TEABAG


I'm done. And by done I don't mean done with blogging or done with something sad. I am finally done with my internship! 
Woohh! Yesterday I'd my last day working as an intern for 'De Telegraaf' (a dutch newspaper) and I'm so ready to have 
all this free time! 3 full months of vacation where I can finally do everything I wanted to do for so long. Just the 
regular things like I did before. Blogging, reading, go shopping and not buying, drinking coffee at cute places and do nothing you know? 

So I'm planning to work on my paper today (which I need to present as final assignment) and after I want to visit 
a local thriftstore. So quite relaxing :). I've got this tea as a present before I left yesterday, and I'm so surprised 
that they remembered. I once said that I love Chai Tea Latte with soymilk from Starbucks so this is perfect for at home. 

I like posts like this; simple, fast and about things I like. A 'fashion' blog doesn't need to go about fashion doesn't it? 
That's why I don't like to call my blog a FASHIONBLOG, ugghh. 
I blog about things I like; that inspire me and things that happened to me and I hope you all like it that way. 
Oh and did I told you I went to The XX concert?! Wow! Last Monday they were playing in Amsterdam and I had one 
of the best nights ever. The way they'd perform and the lighting were perfect and I'm even more fangirling.

ART


I'm wearing a simple blackturtle neck from c&a, mmmxh&m jacket, 
Ray Ban sunglasses and MAC lipstick


although the weather is getting better and better, I still like to dress for fall/winter. I just 
like the clothing style more, the layers and especially the colors. And with colors I mean black (obviously).
 Black says enough for me.

A long long long time ago (yeah i know I've been a bad blogger), I bought this incredible jacket. 
To me it's more then 'just a jacket'. It's a piece to wear occasionally, to look and to enjoy the beauty of it. 
I see it as a piece of art. And not just because it's from Margiela. Designers don't just design clothes,
they create something in their minds. With visuals, thoughts and sometimes already colors and fabrics, like artist do.

(I actually made a video of this jacket while making this picture, but I'm not sure yet if I'm gonna put it up here)

MAC


It took me 20 days this time.. 20 days to come up with a new post, a new idea, and a bit of spare time.
The last few days has been very hectic. I worked other shifts on my internship (from 12 at noon till 8 P.M) 
so when I'm finally home it's around 9.30 at night and I'm not really thinking about blogging anymore. 
And so does my 'photographer friend' who just goes to school at normal hours so we can't really meet up. 
But post like this I can do myself and as today I didn't have to work, went to Amsterdam to shop a little 
and just relaxed and enjoyed my free day. 

A dark red lipstick. That was one of my items on my wishlist that took so long to take off! 
Today I finally went to the Mac store and found myself the perfect lipstick. I went to many 
different stores with the question if they'd got 'this' color, while pointing at my nailpolish 
or a picture on my phone. I've got a lot of headshakings, or colors that were almost the same 
but not exactly, so my search continued. Until today. 

I'd actually never tried Mac cosmetics before, and I think I've found the perfect make-up brand now!
I'm not really a big make-up freak, I mostly wear a light foundation a thin layer of powder and a mascara. 
However I think this lipstick will make a change here. I'd chose a dark red/burgundy matte lipstick which is
called 'diva'. It smells really good (like candy) and looks just so beautiful! I don't really like 
shimmers or glitters so I really like this one. It cost 18,50 euros and really is worth the price.

I never knew I could talk this much about make-up, but I think 
you all understand: I love my new lipstick!

P.S: 3 weeks until I'm finally done with my internship and I'm gonna try to post a bit more.

HATE/LOVE

       
 

So I actually scheduled a post for last thursday but after looking if over a few times I decided to delete it. 
Quality over quantity, period! I know you guys probably want to see a bit more but I'm not gonna 
post blurry and non-satisfying posts, If you get what I mean (a subject I'd spoke about). 

So here's a brand new post of the outfit I wore today. 

Where to start.. I got a hate-love relationship with the well know store Primark. Once in while I drop 
by to pick up a few basic and essential pieces. Socks, tights and of course the simple jeans 
I'd talk about in a few other posts. But actual clothing? Nahh not really, I think it's a bit 'too stylish' 
for me. Too focused on trends. And I'm more back to basic and wear what I like, if it's in style or not. 

Although I'm not a big fan of the store I must say the price/quality ratio is quite good. And so.. I actually 
found something last friday! This simple black dress. Can be worn in summer and winter and is just the right length. 
I'm not expecting this dress will last years and years but for the price I'd payed it's really good! 

I'm wearing a Primark dress, Soaked cardigan and boots are from Zara.

FORGOTTEN

Again an all black outfit. A while ago I said that I'd ordered something but I actually never showed it! 
This oversized Margiela jacket from the Maison Martin Margiela x H&M collection fits perfect and is so simple 
to combine. I think that a piece like this, simple, black with an little edge can in my point of view never 
be out of style. 

I looked it over for so long and tried it on a couple of time when I finally decided to treat myself a little. 
So I ordered it online and voila! There are probably gonna be lots of outfits wearing this piece. 

I'm wearing a MMM x H&M blazer, long t-shirt also from h&m, Primark jeans, 
Monki loafers and h&m hat (from my sister)

Happy fucking Easter


WEEKEND. And not just-a-weekend, a three-day weekend! Saturday, sunday AND monday! How great is that?! 
Finally a bit time for myself, time to blog, time to hang out with friends and just relax. 
And not to forget eat as much chocolate eggs I can. Today it's the 29th of March and guess what? 
It's fucking snowing? I don't know where this weather is taking us but the say it will be the 
coldest Easter since 1964. I don't really have a reason for my absence lately, but you all know the internship story. 

These are my favorite accessoires to wear. A couple of simple rings and my everyday watch. 
Rings are from Asos and watch from Micheal Kors.

HAPPY EASTER
