OUTFIT // Maxi

It's been ages since I posted anything, I know - but I really needed this break to catch my breath again, to enjoy the freedom that the ending of this college year has brought me.. And to work like crazy to earn some cash to spend on my holiday destinations! As we are speaking I am packing up for a double trip to both Barcelona and the Spanish beaches, and London! So I'm keeping it short!

These pictures were taken when I attended an event at a store called We Like Fashion. More on this later, it's a nice store! Had lots of fun with several bloggers, met cute people ♥

OUTFIT // Explosive.

As promised the outfit I wore to dinner.

The experience of dining in an old explosives factory was completed by the old sea mines that were lying everywhere.. The ruffles and colour of the dress were quite a contrast with the scenery.

LIFE // Dinner

Old pictures just seem to keep on popping up. I took these photos a few months back at a restaurant called Lute, a place of great aesthetic and culinar beauty.

In the Netherlands, we have this event called Restaurantweek, which is something organised by multiple (Michelin star) restaurants. Whenever signing up, you get the chance to have dinner at the most fabulous restaurants for really small prices. I attend it every year with my boyfriend, and this year we ended up at this restaurant.

Lute is situated in an old explosives factory - you can really tell by some pictures that I will be showing somewhere later on this week! The original industrial look of the location, the exquisite food and the lovely staff members were an interesting contrast. Truely inspirational.

Just take a look at the pictures. I'M IN LOVE.








And a little preview of what I wore to dinner. More to come..

WISHLIST // Light summer

I recently discovered that the pretty well-known webshop Zalando has much more to offer than just shoes. I was suprised by the broad collection of dresses, bags and accessories and decided to put together some inspirational outfits with their items.

For me, it's all about white and light colours this summer. I love the elegance of clothing that's been crafted from white luxurious fabrics. White also matches perfectly with the pastel coloured wardrobe that I have built up, and the possibilities are infinite.

Here's two ways of wearing light colours, for day and night.



Dress // Tiger of Sweden
Bag // Abro
Sandals // Strenesse
Pink feather necklace // TomShot
Tortoise necklace // David Aubrey



Dress // Bruuns Bazaar
Sandals // Miss Sixty
Laptop case as clutch // Mabba
Cuff // Tokyo Jane

OUTFIT // Rock chic

I love how some girls can get away with their messy hair, a bra peeking out from under their dirty shirt from last night, a run in their stockings and a gloomy facial expression as a result from their huge hangover. Rock chicks fascinate me. But whenever I feel like getting dressed like that (mm.. minus the dirty shirt) I always end up adding pastel, cute stockings and a bright smile.

Guess I am not made for the rock chick look.. But replacing the chick for chic is something I could live with.
