LIFE // L'Escala

So here's the first part about my holiday in Spain.
I figured that the numerous fairytale-like places I have visited (and the thousands of pictures) deserved multiple posts.

I celebrated my holiday with my family and boyfriend in the lovely region of L'Escala. This place consists of the typical mix of traditional Catalan culture and crowded tourism. I prefer the first part.

Therefore I really appreciated the little town of Sant Martí D'Empúries. Despite the many tourists swirling around the restaurants, ordering French fries and egg sunny side up, we managed to enjoy the view, the Gothic church and the lovely food.












To be continued..

RANDOM // Returned

I totally forgot to tell you that I'm back from my holiday!! I've been immensely busy with the people I love & future stuff that you'll like.

big post tomorrow!

RANDOM // Spain.

I'm off to Spain dearies. Will try to update from my vacation location! I'll be back in the Netherlands in 3 weeks.

OUTFIT // The anecdote.

Rosary necklace | vintage from a heritage
Cross ring | made by me
Vintage scarf wrapped around hat

Just a quick Sunday night post. Wore the shorts that I picked up at the ZARA sale, and one of my buys from River Island - the boater hat.

I feel like buying a red Vespa to go with the shorts, and go to Italy by scooter to have a classic Roman holiday..
Sadly enough, this year's holiday destination is Spain.
No just kidding, I am really looking forward to my vacation! I just realized it's less than a week away..

So what's your vacation going to look like? I want to hear your stories.

OUTFIT // NDSM.

Went to Amsterdam last weekend to go to a flea market at NDSM-werf, a former boat building site.
I scored two vintage dresses (can't wait to show you!) and a crazy blazer that should have belonged to someone who's into yodelling (it's very classical Austrian haha).


Remember me getting third at this contest? Finally got the River Island gift card and it has been well spent! Among all the stuff I got was this dress. Love it to bits.



The industrial look of NDSM is very inspirational.

Got a lot of questions about the cross ring featured in my last post. I have a part-time job at a jewellery store, which might explain why I am capable of making my own jewellery.

Oh, and I bumped into Sabrina from AfterDRK at the ZARA. Nice to see you again, girl!

WARDROBE // A heavy cross to carry alone.

Couldn't find a ring like this around.
Decided to make one myself.

Sterling silver cross ring, manufactured by me.
Multiple ring, stud ring & eagle ring, my favorites.
Straw hat, H&M.

OUTFIT // My heart that you play on

Again the leather jacket. Couldn't keep it on for five minutes, it was too hot. It were some stylish five minutes, though.

INSPIRATION // ..On a Tuesday night.

I went out with some good friends on a Tuesday night.
the night involved slightly too much of rosé wine, cocktails, and, strangely enough, I recall to have eaten some apple pie with whipped cream, too.

I got home.
I took pictures I can't remember to have taken.






It was 2 AM. Didn't feel like going to bed.
Found inspiring pictures about cigarettes and tattoos.








Woke up with amnesia.

OUTFIT // Burning leather.

You guessed it right, it was a leather jacket from Supertrash! Silently I am really happy with the sun hiding behind the Dutch clouds.

I had lunch in Amsterdam with J., a good friend of mine, on a day that the sun was burning and kind of set my jacket on fire. It was so hot!



It was worth it though. I am in love with a jacket.
We had lunch on a restaurant with a balcony viewing the Kalverstraat.



J.: "Give me a tough biker-look!" Ahahaha.



♥.

These people gave us funny looks.


HIE HIE HIE.
