Bye Bye 2012

Hi guys!

Here's my last post of 2012, a year that has brought me a lot. I passed my exams, am going to college in Utrecht now, I made new friends, went to the Amsterdam Fashion Week, got to meet even more amamzing people, I've got over 300 followers... I'd just like to say thank you. Thank you for everything, for supporting me, leaving comments, following, some of you even kept reading my blog after I didn't post anything for about two weeks haha. You guys are amazing!!

Besides closing this year, I also have to show you the last holiday look from the photoshoot. The make-up is pretty calm in this one, but that doesn't make it less gorgeous. And the super cute kitty cat in the pic is Mira's. His name is Casper, he's so cute!! But just look at the paws, this kitty will grow!

What I'm wearing:
H&M dress // Zara knuckle box bag

Make-up
face ~ Garnier BB Creme, Estée Lauder blusher, Sephora blusher, Clinique powder
eyes ~ Dior eyeshadow, Sephora eyeshadow
lips ~ Essence lipgloss

I wish you all the very best for 2013!! May this year bring you joy, luck, love, and lots and lots of gorgeous, fashionable moments ;-)

I've got a little surprise in store for you for 2013: I cut my hair! And it's short, super short. I'll get back to you on this, but for now you'll all have to go party and celebrate the passing of this year!!

Love,
Saskia

Christmas Time

Hi guys!

Here are some of my Christmas pics! I had a blast this year, I hope next year will be just as much fun, or maybe even more fun. In the Netherlands, we celebrate two days of Christmas besides Christmas Eve. I celebrated Christmas eve with my girlfriend and her mom. We unwrapped our gifts, talked, ate and just relaxed at home. I got the most amazing gifts, seriously. Rinske and her mother had gone totally crazy in stores (and online), I'm so super happy with the gifts (even though it might be a little bit too much!)!!

Rinske got me two items of the Anna Dello Russo for H&M collection: the clutch and the crocodile bracelet. Oh how I've been craving for those items... I also got robot shaped baubles. Robots are just amazing, seriously. You don't know how happy I was when I unwrapped this gift ha ha! I also got gloves and a pretty ring.
We celebrated first Christmas day with my family. My mother got me a gorgeous rose golden bracelet, I'm so in love. My sis also got me amazing gifts: a super nice necklace and the most amazing lenses box you've ever seen: shaped like an owl.. So cute!! In the evening, whe had a huge family diner. It was delicious.

I hope you enjoyed your Christmas as much as I did!

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!!
