Shine Bright

Hi guys!

Here's photoshoot look no. 2!! I just love how the make-up matches the dress, which by the way is an amazing find. I bought it at H&M for only €14,95!! Talking about a bargain! This dress will make your New Year's Eve super sparkly. Christmas is already over, so we have to start worrying about our New Year's eve outfit already... Well, if you're still in need for a dress, just visit H&M. Gorgeous dresses for amazing prices.

And now about the hair and make-up.. My hair was done by Mira, I just love it. The braids really finish the bun, they make this elegant bun a bit more girly and fun. The make-up is just amazing. Loes did the eyeshadow by just experimenting with colors, and in the end the dress was perfectly copied on my eyes. Wouldn't you just kill for those make-up skills? ;-)


What I'm wearing
H&M dress // Jimmy Choo for H&M clutch // Versace for H&M heels

Make-up
face ~ Garnier BB creme // Clinique powder // Estée Lauder & Sephora blusher
eyes ~ Hema eye pencil // Sephora eyeshadow
lips ~ Essence lipgloss

I'm wearing an H&M hair donut


Hope you guys like the pics so far!! I've got one more festive outfit for the holiday season in store, and also some Christmas pics. I got the most amazing presents.. Pics of them and some other Christmas pics will be online soon! I hope you guys had as much fun as I had on Christmas day. What did you do? Dinner with the entire family or just relax at home?

Just Hear Those Sleighbells Jingling...

Hi guys!

Do you remember how I told you about the Christmas / New Year's Eve photoshoot? Well, we finally did it! Yesterday I spent the day with two lovely girls, Mira and Loes Ennen. We met early in the morning and I left in the evening, and the results are great. Besides taking pics, we also just had a really great day.

We've got three looks coming up for you, and we're definitely planning on doing such a day again. We'd love to know what you think about these photoshoots, and I'd also love to know what you think about getting my blog a beauty-boost. Mira is great at doing your hair (hair in the pics is done by her, really, wow!) and Loes is an amazing make-up artist haha (as you can see in the pics as well). I'd love to team up with them some more, let them do make-up or other beauty stuff reviews and put them on my blog as guest posts. So please let us know what you think! :-)

Well, here are the first few pics. I had a quite hard time sorting them all out, we took lots and lots of pictures. This first Christmas look is super sparkly and fun. I love the shoulder parts in it, and the V-shaped bottom of the top. I paired it with a nice sparkly sequin skirt to make it all over the top. Gotta love sparkles, right? ;-)


What I'm wearing:
Episode top // Vero Moda sequin skirt // Versace for H&M heels

What make-up did Loes use?
face ~ Garnier BB Creme // Clinique powder Estée Lauder & Sephora blusher
eyes ~ Essence eyeshadow
lips ~ Essence lipgloss

Happy holidays everyone!!

Shopping: Perfect for Christmas

Hi guys!

December's almost here, just a few more days! Christmas fun is coming closer and closer, but here in the Netherlands we first have Sinterklaas to celebrate on the 5th of December! Then after that, it's all about Christmas. But, what to wear?? And what to wear on New Year's Eve?? Well, I'm planning on doing a Christmas outfit and make up ideas photoshoot. I'm not sure yet when we'll be doing the shoot, but I'll keep you guys up to date!

Here are some things I bought lately, both the top and the backpack are from a vintage store in Utrecht, Episode. You can also find this shop in Amterdam, Brussel,London, Paris and Copenhagen. Maybe you have visited their store once? I'd love to know what you guys bought over there, or what your thoughts are on the store! We used to have it in Rotterdam as well, but unfortunately it's gone. But as I'm studying in Utrecht and the store is not very far away from my school, I can still visit it often :-)


I've been looking for a backpack like this for sooo long. And, newsflash, I've bought more bags than shoes last month haha. I'm seeing a little shift in my addictions...

Shopping: Finally got my knuckle box

Hi guys!

Do you know the knuckle box? The incredible, extremely gorgeous knuckle box? Well, I got myself one of those incredible, extremely gorgeous knuckle boxes yesterday!! I've been craving it for such a long time now... It wasn't cheap at all, but my mother gave me a gift card (I still had to pay a lot though, but it helped, thanks mum! <3) so I just bought it. I knew I would regret it if I didn't buy it. So why not? Why not be a little crazy sometimes, if it will make you happy for a much longer time? And I can guarantee you: I'm happy. Super happy. Do you love this bag just as much as I do?

Preparing for Winter

Hi guys!

It's getting colder and colder these days.. People outside are wearing thick coats, gloves and warm boots. I´m trying not to wear gloves yet, or too warm clothes. If I start wearing my warmest clothes right now, what should I wear in December?? I'm already wearing my winter coat though. It's really nice and warm, from Zara. I shared it on my instagram account already, so it'll be up on my blog soon in another instagram post! :-) For the pics below, I decided to wear my old winter coat, which I bought two years ago at H&M. I bought the fuzzy hat I'm wearing last year, so I'm kind of mixing these old items. But this hat will be perfect for each winter, and the combination with the coat is just really comfy and cute. What do you think? :-)


What I'm wearing:
H&M fake fur coat // River Island hat // Accessorize ring


While your reading this, I'm getting all prepared to walk in a fashion show! Woohoo, how amazing is that!! It's a fashion show organized by my sister's friend. I'm so excited, I hope I can post some pics of the show later! I'll keep you up to date through my twitter page! ;-)
