Seriously, the Hat

2012-01-31T11:46:00.000+01:00

Had fun trying out my new hat, haha! Do you like it? Will be showing it in an outfit soon!

The Suit 2.0

2012-01-30T11:35:00.001+01:00

I still like the jumpsuit I bought last year so I thought why not wear it again! I mixed it up with my faux fur scarf and burgundy ankle boots to make it more "winter proof"! What do you think?

Have it Orange

2012-01-29T12:45:00.001+01:00

I am currently making some changes in my picture-making routine, because of the cold I will take more pictures inside the house. Because I haven't done this often, I have to practice a lot! This is also the reason that I replaced the picture of the full outfit, it wasn't very clear first so I hope this is better!

Clothes/Shoes: Zara, Bag: Friis & Company

Orange

2012-01-26T12:30:00.000+01:00

Orange is going to be big for 2012, and I must say that I kinda like it. I bought this necklace last summer, and I am now looking for ways to wear it in winter. I think it would look nice with a big chunky knit! Would you wear orange?

Lacy Wednesday

2012-01-25T14:40:00.000+01:00

Today I am wearing my new lace dress, or actually it isn't that new but I haven't shown it at my blog. I really like it , the lace gives the cream dress just that little extra. And since the 20's are making a huge comeback, you can find them at almost every store.
I combined it with my new (arrived fresh in the mail today) clutch, which is the same design as my new bag. I love them both and I think I will be carrying them around a lot!

Lime Simplicity

2012-01-24T14:08:00.004+01:00

Lime was never on my favourite colours list, but ever since I bought this blouse I am really starting to like it. I always try to mix a "bright" colour like this with simple pieces, to keep the total look clean.

What do you think?

Blouse: Pull&Bear

Random Inspiration

2012-01-23T13:23:00.000+01:00

Of course I love scrolling through blogs, magazines, fashion related websites etc to get my inspiration, but I also love to get inspired by pictures that have nothing to do with fashion. Just sucking up the atmosphere a little, and then trying to translate it to an outfit. This is just a tiny collage which I made, I have a lot more pictures stored on my computer! How do you get your inspiration?

Sweet Sunday

2012-01-22T13:01:00.000+01:00

After 2 weeks of continuous studying, I really can enjoy a lazy sunday like this. Perfect day to wear my new big knit! I always like dressing up though, so I matched them with my black heels.

Outfits of 2011

2012-01-08T15:24:00.001+01:00

I am back from my short holiday trip, and tomorrow starts the first test of a total of 12 in 2 weeks at school. Wish the holidays were longer..
First things first : cause I was really busy last week ( we went away almost directly after NYE) I haven't had the chance to wish you all the best for the new year. So happy new year dear readers! Hope you will all support me in the next year as well as you did in the last. I really appreciate it, without you blogging wasn't so much fun!
I made a collage of outfits I wore in 2011. Do you have a favorite?

Sale Shopping // New Buy

2012-01-02T09:57:00.000+01:00

I bought this amazing knit last week for only something like 25 euro's , while it cost 95 before! I just love sale when stuff like this is happening!

P.S. I'll be on a short holiday trip for a week, and I will not be able to update when I'm there. When I'm back I'll update a new outfit!

Jumper: Vila

12302011

2011-12-30T13:31:00.002+01:00

I like wearing delicate fabrics like chiffon, spiced up with a knit to make it more day like. I bought the skirt and the knit both in Antwerp last week, during a major shopping spree. I'll show you the rest of the damage later on!

P.S.: I made a few changes in my blogs layout. I added a top menu, trying to make it a bit more arranged. The colours are a bit lighter as well. I'd love to hear what you think about it!

Holidays in Pictures

2011-12-27T13:04:00.000+01:00

1. Cosy knitted cardigan (Christmas outfit day 1)
2. New Céline inspired bag (Friis)
3. The cute little home-made angel on top of our tree
4. Fashion Lexicon, gift from my boyfriend
5. More tree ornaments
6. New shoes (ZARA)

Shoes!

2011-12-19T09:20:00.002+01:00

Shoes can just spice up your whole outfit, giving it just that little extra. That's one of the reasons why I really love shoes. These are my favorites at the moment! Do you have a favorite pair too?

Plastic Fantastic

2011-12-17T14:02:00.001+01:00

I just found my Ted Baker bag again, which I couldn't find for months. It seemed that I accidentally packed it with all kinds of old clothing and bags which I'd stacked somewhere in the back of my closet. I'm so happy that I found it again!
I am wearing my new striped oversize knit today, bought it on sale. I like clothing that does not require you looking after it the whole time while wearing. It doesn't really matter how this 'hangs' on your body, it is actually quite nice if it has a slouchy look! Perfect for the weekend if you ask me.

P.S. I'm having Lookbook trouble at the moment, I wanted to change my email address but then I had to fill in everything again (username etc) and now I cannot log in anymore :p Is there anyone of you who knows what to do? I guess I'll just have to send an email to Lookbook explaining it haha.

Winter Treasure

2011-12-13T18:48:00.000+01:00

As I mentioned earlier, I do have a special love for capes. However, I am not really able to wear mine when it is freezing cold outside. Luckily, it still isn't that bad, but when the winter will finally arrive in The Netherlands, I'd like to be prepared. Hence the coat I bought last week, a grey woolen (it has got the woolmark label), really long one. It is calf length! I found it by accident when I was browsing eBay, and I got it for only 30 pounds! I cannot wait to wear it and when I do, I will show you a picture!

Three-Toned

2011-12-11T13:04:00.000+01:00

After a couple of weeks focusing on other stuff then my blog, I am back! This is what I am wearing today, I'm completely in love with my new jumper. I made pictures outside, but when I wanted to make a full shot of my outfit it started to rain, so I made one picture inside the house. Stupid weather!

Jumper: Pull & Bear, jeans: Topshop, Shoes: Cafe Moda

Little blog break

2011-11-27T09:09:00.001+01:00

At the moment, I am very busy with a lot of stuff and my school schedules are totally crazy, so I can't really find the time to update as much as I would like. That is why I am having a blog break. If you have any suggestions on how to upgrade my blog, something to say or if you'd like to ask me something, feel free to do so! I will be back in about 2 weeks, with lots of new stuff and outfit updates!

Unfinished Business

2011-11-24T12:36:00.000+01:00

I wanted to take some outfit pictures but my camera's battery died when I only made just one. Not even a full shot so I am quite disappointed. I didn't want to wait until the next time to update again, so I decided to still show you this, which you can consider 'a preview' haha! I am wearing my favorite striped top and a skirt which I already bought in summer but hadn't worn yet..

Cosy Layering

2011-11-20T13:33:00.000+01:00

Layering is a great way to get warm and comfortable if you ask me. I wanted to wear my burgundy cardigan today but then I saw my longline sleeveless knit and I couldn't really choose between them. So I decided to wear them both! Do you like layering?

Cardigans: H&M, Shoes: Asos, Bag: Pieces

Larger than Life

2011-11-18T13:27:00.000+01:00

For a school assignment, I had to go browse through the Internet and magazines to collect all kinds of innovations in the field of styling. I bumped into some pictures of Visionaire Magazine and found out that they made an issue, called ' Larger than Life', which has mind blowing measurements. The smallest magazine is 3 x 4 feet and they have a 'deluxe edition' which is even larger. How's that for innovation! No surprise that they hold record with this in the Guinness Book of Records! If you're planning on buying it, make sure you're up for some serious wallet damage, they're not exactly cheap..

Wardrobe Shades

2011-11-10T14:35:00.000+01:00

I already told you that I am a fan of autumn colours, but I also like nude and cream shades and I often use those in my outfits. Obviously words don't measure up against pictures when it comes to colours, so I made a few snaps of my closet. This is just a small collection, but in my opinion it gives a clear view on my favourite shades. What are your favourite wardrobe colours?

Forest Stroll

2011-11-08T09:24:00.000+01:00

I love to take a walk in the forest every now and then, and since I'm a sucker for nature's colours in autumn, I brought my camera this time to make a couple of nice pictures. Nature can be really inspiring if you ask me! I made a little collection to show on my blog, and I took some outfit shots as well. I was wearing my new cape coat (yes, I have a thing for capes!) which has kind of an eggplant colour.

Green Cables

2011-11-06T14:08:00.000+01:00

I was wondering how to combine my 'summer dress' for autumn. This is what I came up with, I figured that the dress has a slight green tone in it, so I thought it would be nice to match it with my green cardigan. What do you think?

Orange for November

2011-11-05T13:32:00.002+01:00

I've always liked orange as a colour for autumn outfits, and it goes so well with the shades that nature is showing at the moment. I can enjoy a whole day watching all those beautiful leaves and colours. That gave me some inspiration to wear my orange jumper today!

Giddy Up

2011-11-04T14:36:00.000+01:00

I bought these leather vintage cowboy style boots on eBay, for only 18 pounds! The style is not something I usually wear, though that might just be something that excites me about them. What do you think? :)
I've had a couple of busy weeks at school, that's why I didn't find the time to update my blog. Those weeks are gone now, so there will be more posts again!

Outfit + Shopping

2011-10-29T14:03:00.000+02:00

Yesterday I did some shopping. Actually more like I was planning to, but I didn't really find nice stuff so I ended up buying just one dress at h&m. I'm really more of an online-shopper I guess!
P.S. I am sorry for the pictures being not too bright, I am just really clumsy with my phone camera!

How to Wear?

2011-10-20T14:16:00.000+02:00

I've got this green dress which I really like because of the shape and the colour, but I'm just not so sure about how to wear it. There are a couple of ideas crossing my mind. I'd like to know though: How would you combine it? :)

Pink is Everywhere

2011-10-19T13:50:00.000+02:00

Simple outfits are honestly the ones I like to wear the most, especially when they're comfy too. These trousers for example are so soft, I don't think I will ever put them away, haha!
When it comes to colours, I am still a sucker for nudes and all soft tones. I do have some really colourful items, but I always try to match them with soft shades to create some kind of balance.
In this outfit I thought the pink zipper at the back of my blouse added just a little extra, something that colour can do very well in my opinion. What do you think?

Blouse: Zara, Trousers: Asos (last year), Clutch: Vintage (eBay), Shoes: Cafe Moda

The Cape Coat

2011-10-18T14:38:00.000+02:00

I really like capes for autumn (and winter if the weather lets me), so when I saw this one at H&M I had to have it. I love the colour and the shape and I came up with many ideas to wear it. (That's always one of my guidelines when deciding to buy it or not). I will show you an outfit with it this week!

Touch of Bohemia

2011-10-11T15:48:00.000+02:00

Wearing something a little different today. The weather is bad but the temperature is actually not that low, which gave me the opportunity to wear my summer maxi dress again (for the last time?) I made it more ' autumn proof' by adding my burgundy cardigan and my suede ankle boots. Sorry for wearing the same bag so much, I can't help but loving it, haha!

Preppy Vintage

2011-10-01T12:11:00.000+02:00

To me, a trenchcoat has always been a wardrobe essential. It comes in so many different colours and materials, but it still has this typical over all shape. I recently bought this piece which has a really nice drapy effect, what do you think? :)

The Button Swap pt. 2

2011-09-24T15:55:00.000+02:00

When I saw this blazer in stores a couple of weeks ago, I especially liked the collar and the over all shape. I didn't really like the buttons, cause they had a really cold shiny plastic look. So, as I did before, I decided to put another pair on it and in my opinion it looks much better now. The fabric isn't great either, but for only 29,95, it was worth a shot ;)

p.s. I've activated a twitter account. It took a while for me to get convinced but here it is! I will use it for announcing updates for my blog and other blog- and fashion related news.
You can find the link at the sidebar on the right of my blog as well!

Fashion By Feelings

2011-09-23T15:45:00.001+02:00

Recently, Woolmark launched a great campaign called ' Fashion by Feelings'. The campaign is all about educating people about wool as a natural and renewable fibre. Wool is a fabric which is not only stunning and so nice and warm for the colder days, it is also a very environmentally friendly product. So Woolmark has all the right reasons to start a campaign for this!
Now, they've asked me to join their campaign by posting a look with woolen garments on their website.
Check it out, and don't forget to vote for my look, cause you can win great prizes if you got the most votes!
Besides that, voters can win as well! You are in the running to win a $400 EMU Australia pack with boots of your choice, and more!
Thank you in advance!

Knitted Skirts

2011-09-22T15:49:00.000+02:00

I love knitted stuff for the colder days so when I saw the brown and grey skirts @ NewYorker, for only 13 euros, I couldn't resist them. The skirt with the pattern is from Miss Selfridge and cost 20 pounds. I think I will wear all three of them a lot this season!

Spotted

2011-09-17T11:03:00.000+02:00

When I went for a little shopping spree yesterday, I visited Zara and found two of my 'basic wishlist' items. I really wanted a chunky, oversized knitted sweater and a top with breton stripes. Although the last one looks really simple, it has some nice detailing (zipper on the shoulder) and it's made out of thick cotton. What do you think? :)

2011-09-10T13:01:00.003+02:00

These are a couple of items I already bought before the weather turns colder. I like doing some new season shopping, cause everything looks so fresh and new. I have plenty outfit ideas for fall, so let the colder season begin!

Tie your Laces

2011-09-02T16:33:00.000+02:00

This dress is so comfortable, you wouldn't believe it. I like drapery in clothing so this one didn't take long to convince me to buy it. I edged it up a little by wearing my lace wedges. What do you think?

Sale Shopping // New Buys Pt 2

2011-08-25T17:05:00.001+02:00

These are the sale's final treasures I've found. I love a simple oversized sweater with stripes in soft tones, so this one was just perfect. It got even better when I saw the price, only 12 euros! The tan flat leather sandals are the same as I already have in a taupe colour, the fit is soo great, I would recommend them to anyone. The coloured necklace is a good addition to a plain outfit and the wedges I just find really nice.

Head over Taupe

2011-08-15T14:20:00.003+02:00

I have to say, being back in The Netherlands is kind of a disapointment, the weather still sucks! So I had a hard time figuring out what to wear today, I was pretty used to being able to wear all my summer clothes during my holiday and now I have to wear a long-sleeved jumper again..

P.S. The pictures are a bit light but in this case I actually like it!
P.P.S. My hair got lighter by the sun, no dyeing involved!

I just got back from Santorini, it was amazing! The island is so beautiful and the people are very friendly. I made some pictures as I promised to show to you, so here they are. If you ever go to Greece, make sure to check out Santorini! :)

Santorini

2011-08-03T16:56:00.000+02:00

Tomorrow morning, I'll be flying to Santorini to spend my holidays. There will be no posts in the meantime, but I will bring my camera so there will be an update as soon as I come back. See you in a week! :)

Sale Shopping // New Buys Pt 1

2011-07-30T15:16:00.000+02:00

To be honest with you guys, I hate the sale in stores. I can't stand clothes thrown all together on a display with people digging in it and the mess that follows.
On the other hand, i love the online sale. No queue and no people gone crazy. Heaven!

It looks like it has been raining all July, and I am starting to get a bit desperate for sunshine. I wanted to wear this dress today, but I can't without having to put on a jacket as well, due to this stupid weather.

Inspiring Antwerp

2011-07-19T10:28:00.000+02:00

A couple of weeks ago, I had to go visit Antwerp for a school assignment, and take pictures of everything that inspired me for developing a new clothing line.This is just a small selection, that I'd like to show to you :)

The Green Greens

2011-07-17T15:32:00.001+02:00

I love the colour green, cause it has so much shades and always reminds me of nature. I'm wearing my green skinny trousers paired with all neutral tones, cause I like outfits with just one focuss. What do you think?

Trousers/Heels: Zara, Top/Blazer: H&M, Clutch: Vintage via eBay

What to wear?

2011-07-14T13:07:00.000+02:00

The weather in The Netherlands is terrible again, it is raining like crazy and it is way too cold for this time of the year. And one of the most annoying things about this is that I really don't know what to wear! My closet is packed with all kinds of summer clothing, and most pieces are just too cold for now. Ofcourse I have got a couple of jackets and jeans etc etc, but I think it is such a pity not being able to wear your summer dresses. I mean, if we can't wear them now, when can we? So yes, I am kind of frustrated :p
Do you have back-up plans for bad weather in summer?

It's Summer, After All..

2011-07-11T16:38:00.001+02:00

I like wearing comfortable and easy stuff in summer. This blouse is one of my favourites, it's so soft and floaty, just perfect! Combined with the leather sandals and the straw bag I showed you before, it makes a basic and simple outfit, just the way I like it.

Sandals: Oasis, Dress: H&M, Blouse: Vero Moda

Pink on Pink, Brown on Brown

2011-07-08T14:57:00.002+02:00

Wearing my pink shirt again today, only this time together with brown shorts. I didn't quite know what shoes I had to go with, cause if I chose brown shoes, it would be all brown from the waist to the feet. Then I thought it could be kind of funny to put on a pink necklace, so that the amount of pink and brown would be exactly the same!

Summer Wardrobe Essentials

2011-07-06T16:17:00.000+02:00

To me, a perfect wardrobe starts with perfect basics. These items are probably the most basic in my closet for this season, and I love every piece. Especially the sandals, which are made of the softest Italian leather. I can walk for hours and my feet won't even hurt a bit. What are your favourite basics for summer?

DIY: Draped top

2011-07-02T19:55:00.000+02:00

Finally, as promised, here's a tutorial to make the drape top I showed you in my previous outfit.

The ingredients:

1. Waterfall Cardigan

2. A top with skinny shoulder straps

3. A belt

The Tutorial:

Take the left side of the front of your cardigan.
Tuck it in to the shoulderstrap of your top on your right shoulder.
Do the same on the other side.
Take a belt, or if you like just a ribbon, and gather the hemline, draping a bit fabric over your belt/ribbon. The difference here is that a belt probably stays visible and a ribbon doesn't. I'm now wearing it with a belt, but in my previous outfit with a ribbon, so you can see the difference and choose what you like best.
Finished! I think it is an easy way to spice up your boring old cardigan, isn't it? :)

The Result

Wrapped in Simplicity

2011-06-17T16:45:00.000+02:00

After trying to sell this cardigan for at least six months, I gave up trying. I wanted to give it to a dump store, but then I got this idea. I wrapped it , draped and knotted it and this is the result. I am actually quite happy with it and I decided to keep it for now, haha! If you like it and you want to try it yourself but you don't know how, let me know and I'll post a tutorial!

Easy does it

2011-06-15T15:58:00.001+02:00

One of my favourite dresses of all times is this super simple grey sweat dress. It has a really soft touch and it can easily be dressed up or down. I found it in a second hand store a while ago with the labels cut off, so I can't tell you where it's from. It was such a bargain, and to me a real treasure!

Outfit of yesterday: wearing my hot pink dress with a turquoise ring and wedges. I really like those two colours together, they make such a colourclash!

You probably already know that I have a thing for coral, so I couldn't resist this cute little jacket. The fit is just perfect and I really like the details.

Crazy Colours

2011-06-08T17:52:00.000+02:00

I really like the bright colour trend going on right now, and so I was looking for a pair of nicely coloured shoes. I love to top off a plain outfit with just a pop of bright shades. Not sure if these are really my cup of tea though, but I actually like the orange pair with the peep toes and the ankle straps... which pair do you like best?

Transforming Dress

2011-06-05T12:31:00.000+02:00

When I went for a little shopping spree the other day, I saw Zara selling skirts like this and I loved it. I wanted to buy one, but then I figured I could 'transform' my striped dress in to a skirt and this is the result!

2011-06-03T09:55:00.000+02:00

Wearing my new white dress, together with another eBay found : the strappy ankle boots. I spiced it up with a touch of blue. What do you think?

Shopping / Perfect Wedges

2011-06-02T15:41:00.000+02:00

I was scanning through eBay in search of the perfect summer dress. I wanted something floaty, with a touch of boho. Never found it. However, I did buy a pair of taupe, suede wedges. Quite different from the dress I wanted, but just as perfect. I have some really nice ideas on how to pair them up, so stay tuned for the outfits!

p.s. I made a few changes on my blog, I edited the width of the layout and I will post bigger pictures from now on. I still have all my previous posts, I just didn't want to have pictures of different sizes on the same page. You can find everything in the archives and as soon as I post more updates with bigger pictures, there will be more on the same page again!

Strappy & Floral

2011-05-26T11:47:00.001+02:00

I like my cheap pants from primark so much, the colour is great and so is the fit. I combined it with my floral bustier top I bought last year, which is still a favourite piece. What do you think?

When coral takes over..

2011-05-25T09:53:00.000+02:00

Lately I noticed that I've got a lot of coral shades hanging in my closet. I like this bright and at the same time soft colour for spring and summer. What are your favourite colours for this season?

2011-05-23T16:30:00.001+02:00

I'm wearing my new maxi dress today, yay! Bought it a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I like the colours and the fabric plus the length is just perfect. What do you think?

Shopping / The New Dress

2011-05-18T15:42:00.001+02:00

Bought this lovely hot (&) pink dress from H&M today, I love the mix of fabrics (silky front, jersey back), the shape, the zipper..just about everything, haha! What do you think?

Press Day - LifeStylePress

2011-05-11T10:36:00.000+02:00

I went to the press day of LifeStylePress and it was really nice, they had so much beautiful stuff! I really like the brand Konsanszky, you should check it out! We also enjoyed a high tea and I met up with Lian, a pretty girl with a nice blog!

Hot May Day

2011-05-08T12:48:00.002+02:00

Dear readers! I've been spending most of last week trying to get better, influenza got me bad so I couldn't make any pictures for my blog. Fortunately I've been feeling a lot better since yesterday, and now that the weather is great again I thought it would be nice to make some outfit pictures. Everything I am wearing today is from last year or even older, so I am kind of recycling my closet, ha!

Pink & Grey

2011-05-02T12:38:00.000+02:00

Hello, Yellow

2011-04-30T12:20:00.000+02:00

I was browsing through my closet the other day and I found this floaty, soft yellow top. I remember that I bought it in Paris a couple of years ago but I never worn it cause I wasn't sure if yellow was my colour. But now I actually like it, so I decided to wear it today. What do you think?

Strawbaggies

2011-04-27T14:53:00.000+02:00

Bags made out of straw, I love them. It gives me such a summer/beach feeling. And the time that they'd only looked good on your grandma is gone. You've got them in all kinds of models, but I like the simple, large shopper the most. You can check out an outfit with mine here. I think this clutch is very cute too, though. What do you think?

Weekend Diary

2011-04-25T11:08:00.000+02:00

Yesterday my boyfriend and I enjoyed the day spending some time by the water and having cold drinks. When we were on our way home we decided to go in to the forest and relax a bit more, we also took some outfit pics!

I'm sorry for keeping you waiting so long for updates, I wasn't home for two weeks and I forgot to bring my camera with me!

Sweet Spring

Wanted!

2011-04-09T11:33:00.002+02:00

I saw this top on the internet and I loved it,especially the floaty fabric and the shape. But.. I would have liked it better in bright, hot pink. Has anyone of you any ideas where I can find something like that? All suggestions are welcome!

Top: Zara

The Shoe in Blue

2011-04-04T11:41:00.001+02:00

I love my bright coloured shoes, and I don't know why but I seem to have a thing for this shade of blue. Everything I see in this colour immediately has my attention. And it is not even my favourite colour..

update: I'm sorry guys, I tried to make some pictures BUT my camera's memory card broke (literally) so you have to wait a little longer. Bad luck! :(

Adding Some Colour

2011-02-28T12:03:00.004+01:00

I've really had it with winter and its dark shades and colours, so that's why I decided to add a little more colour to my outfit. This is what I was wearing yesterday. What do you think?

Interior Thoughts

2011-02-26T13:35:00.000+01:00

Since my boyfriend and I got ourselves an apartment, I am constantly buisy finding new pieces that fit perfectly in our cosy home. Last week I found this blanket at H&M, which goes lovely with our white interior.To add some colour to the living room, I got these candles. I'll show you some more pictures of my home soon!

Dinner Outfit

2011-02-19T13:57:00.001+01:00

This is actually what I was wearing last week, during a dinner in Amsterdam with my bf. Unfortunately, my internet was gone for the whole week so I couldn't update my blog. Sorry for that!
p.s. :I am wearing the jacket from my previous post here!

The Button Swap

2011-02-12T12:44:00.000+01:00

About two weeks ago, I did my first buy for spring. I bought this nice, creamy white coloured jacket by Forever 21. I like the colour and the fit, but I just wasn´t sure about the white button. I thought it could use a little extra something and so I chose to reconstruct it a bit. See for the results below!

Did you know?

2011-02-08T10:37:00.000+01:00

About two weeks ago I discovered a really great webshop: Tobi.com. Today, Tobi launches a new redesigned interface for their site. It has a brand new look, with a new, redesigned lay-out. I personally think that the website has a really clean look, the pictures are bigger and the improved navigation helps you finding your items in no time. And besides all that, Tobi is just a great shop with all the right brands. A couple of examples:

And now the best part, you can get a 20% off of your order by using the code jules20. Have a great shopping spree!

The Jumpsuit

2011-02-07T12:02:00.000+01:00

Today, I just felt like wearing my jumpsuit. I couldn't care less about the weather or the fact that it's just a regular Monday. I bought it last week and it is already one of my most beloved items. Tell me what you think! :)

Jumpsuit: Nelly, Shoes: Zara, Coat: C&A

Heels Parade

2011-02-06T12:47:00.000+01:00

Heels are a big love to me, and these are my favourites at the moment. Altough I can't wear the chunky wooden-and-leather pair just yet, I like to think of ways to match them in spring and I have a couple of really nice outfits planned with them!

Beige Heels: Zara, Blacks and Sandals: Café Moda

The Basics

2011-02-03T13:06:00.000+01:00

When I first saw that you could get this special gift wrapping at my-wardrobe.com, I thought it was a ridiculous thing to do when you've orderd but a plain, simple t-shirt. Then I saw that the wrapping was for free, so I got myself a nice little present. The tee I bought is fabulous, the fabric is really soft and it's just a great basic.

Tee: Forrest&Bob

Silky and Draped

2011-02-01T12:18:00.000+01:00

I am wearing my silky grey/cream blouse today, which has kind of a collar you can knot, like a scarf basically, but I decided to tuck it into my trousers and draping it a bit. What do you think? I won't be wearing this in the afternoon though, cause I have to travel for about 2,5 hours and I'd rather slip into something more comfortable then!

Camel in Layers

2011-01-31T12:37:00.000+01:00

I wanted to show you an outfit with my new coat, so here it is. I like it with something knitted, makes it look extra warm and cosy. What do you think?

Coat: C&A, Knit: H&M, Shoes: Zara, Jeans: Topshop

When Camel Comes Cheap

2011-01-29T14:16:00.000+01:00

I am the type that never has much luck during sale, so I was extra excited when I saw that this lovely woolen coat was only 10 euros and still there in my size. I love the colour and the double pocket on the right and I like the padded shoulders. I guess everybody is lucky sometimes!

Coat: C&A

The Frill Dress

2011-01-21T14:32:00.002+01:00

I really do love my new Topshop dress, though I would have liked it even better when it had a bit more length. I think it really is a piece which you can combine with almost everything. Throw over a blazer for a more classy look, you can also cosy it up with a nice big knit.

Vila Blazer, Topshop Dress, Zara boots

The New Nudes

2011-01-16T14:03:00.001+01:00

Now that the snow is gone, I get an instant desire for spring. Unfortunately, it will still take a while before the new season pops up. So I decided to team up my new nude blazer with a skirt and tights. Can't wait to wear it with a dress, bare legs and sandals!
