Stylight Holiday Summary

I told you guys about STYLIGHT before, but besides using it to share your style, it's also great fun to create a board about your holiday using the items and everything they offer! And that's exactly what I did. I made a summer holiday summary for my holiday in France, and I might also do this for the holiday I'm on right this moment. I bet I'll be sunbathing in the garden now, or playing with the dog, reading magazines, reading books, swimming in Lake Balaton, or anything else you mostly do on holidays. Maybe I'm shopping....... Could be the situation as well.

In the first part of the board, you can see something you've already seen on my blog as well: my basic beach outfit (see the post here). Beside the pic of me you can see shorts from Levis, a sweater from Object, a lace top from Modstrom and a crop top from MET Jeans. With all those items you can create a lovely basic beach outfit like mine. The nice thing about STYLIGHT is that you can buy the items through the website. You can easily click a button which will lead you to a webshop.

Below this you can see something I love so much: printed or embellished shorts. I love the peacock shorts from Bambam. For the other brands, you can follow this link and simply click on the items you'd like to see the brand of. You can also see a preview of a post in which I'm wearing neon shorts. I bought the beauty in Barcelona. For a citytrip to Barcelona you'll probably need some basic items like sunscreen, a hat and definitely a bag which can be closed VERY good. There are so many pickpockets in Barcelona, so be careful for this when you're going!!

Then: a trend I absolutely LOVE. Printed bathing suits. Most of the bathing suits you see in my board are from We Are Handsome. This brand seriously has the BEST printed bathing suits. For those of you who don't like bathing suits, I also put a couple of printed bikinis in the board ;-). And of course you can see my version of this trend. The beach in France is perfect for photoshoots, and this shoot turned out amazingly. You'll definitely see more of the bathing suit I'm wearing, which is from Mr Gugu & Miss Go!

Then last but not least: we visited my all time favorite museum: that of Salvador Dalí in Figueres. I love his art, I've been in love with it since I was about twelve years old. I'll probably love his art forever. That's many many years to come. We visited this museum as well a couple of years ago, but it still doesn't bore me. That's the amazing thing about Salvador Dalí, to me. He tried so many styles, and everything worked. He also created some jewellery, and as my Instagram followers might have already seen, you can see a picture of my favorite piece in this board. It's a heart, and it can actually beat. Like a real heart, indeed. This piece of jewellery can amaze me anytime, but as this would probably be way to expensive, I'd settle for a cute ring like the ones next to it.

Happy holiday guys!! See you in a couple of days for pics from this board, and more pics from my latest holiday to Hungary!!

P.S. Have you checked out the amazing commercial Stylight created? It's featuring bloggers like Kenza from Kenzas and Andy from Style Scrapbook. You can also see some people who work at Stylight in the commercial!! I really love it, and you can check it out yourselves as well below!

Sophisticated Luxury, Cool Sports

If you've read my latest post, you know quite a bit now about the brand Are You Swedish. But now you can actually see an item of their Cool Sports Collection on me! I'm not the sportiest type, so I didn't really create a sporty outfit. I'm wearing a (super) mini skirt.... Not the thing I would wear if I would ever go sporting, hehe. Meindert did wear a bit sportier outfit, or at least, that's what I think. Men can go sporting in their (swimming) shorts, right? Or am I really such a loser at sports that I don't even know that's extremely not done? Could be...

Meindert is wearing:
AYS?SLC tee // Bershka shorts

I'm wearing:
AYS?SLC tee // Primark skirt // H&M heels

Meindert is such a photogenic guy, don't you think?? I really, really love how these pictures turned out. His style is also amazing. I'm still encouraging him to start his own fashion blog hehe, can you help me with this? ;-)

Do you like this unisex tee? I love how it fits Meindert :-) With me, it's slightly big, but I'm super tiny. Might be the reason why I don't work out as well: I'm super tiny and I don't, I repeat, I really DON'T want to get any smaller. That's the other side of what you always hear, about girls wanting to get thinner. I'm the opposite.

Oh by the way, I do work out, and I actually do sports. I do ballet. Once a week. And that's a full body work out. But I don't do it to get thinner, I do it because I love it. And that's what everyone should do! And that was my speech about sporting.

Sky High

Hello lovely readers!!

Today I'm going on holiday! Again? Yes, again!! Sometimes I really love my life haha ;-) This time, I'm going to the beautiful Hungary with my girlfriend and her mother. We went there last year as well, as they own a house in a small town called Adand. I'll be gone for three weeks, but every week I've got one post planned for you! And prepare yourselves, they'll be great (as I may say so myself). I've got one brand spotlight, and an outfit post featuring something from that very brand, and then last but not least, a post I created with the website STYLIGHT. If you want to know more about this website, I also have some information about it in the blogpost you can find by clicking here!

STYLIGHT also has a commercial now! Have you seen it yet? Check it out on Youtube, right here. Plus: they also have an iPhone app now! For those lucky girls who own an iPhone or iPad, go download it in your app store. The unlucky bastards like me, owning an Android phone, will have to wait a bit longer. Of course I'll keep you posted on this, and you'll hear from me when the Android app releases!

And now about this post. I wore this outfit to the Modefabriek event, but I shot the outfit pics a day later with a very good friend of mine: Meindert. He might be my bestest friend, he's always there for me and we can have so much fun toghether. So here's a shoutout to you Meindert: I love you!! You're the best, and I hope we'll be friends forever!

And now really about the outfit I'm wearing: I checked out these pictures on my camera, and until then I hadn't realized how crazy tall this outfit made me look. I'm wearing this skirt in my waist, which always gives your legs more length, but because of the maxi skirt, it's super crazy. I won't keep you any longer: here are the pics!

I'm wearing:
Vero Moda top // H&M skirt // H&M heels

Do you notice how my bracelet (which I got at Modefabriek) matches my top? ;-) And on the last pic, you see me working my charming look.

Have a happy holiday guys, and I hope you'll come back for my I'm-on-holiday-but-still-giving-you-posts posts!

See you guys over three weeks!

♥ Saskia

P.S. You've just read my 250th post!! Yay bloggie!!

Beach Basic

Here's the very first outfit post from France! During the day, the temperatures were quite high, but they could lower during the evening. These pics were shot at the beginning of the evening, and that's why you see me wearing a sweater on the beach. It's also quite windy at the beach haha, so this thin sweater was perfect!

H&M sweater // Only shorts // slippers (visible on the last pic) bought in Greece

On the last pic, you can already see a small part of a bathing suit. We decided to take two shoots at once, an outfit shoot and a bathing suit shoot, so I was already wearing it underneath my sweater. We took lots and lots of pics from the bathing suit, as it was extremely photogenic (seriously, you'll see) and the water near the rocks was just perfect!!

How's your holiday so far? :-)
