Outfit of the day: Studs and jeans

The sun is shining again: joehoe! And so the first sitting-chill-@ a terrace-enjoying the sun was a fact. Gotta love these times, chit-chatting and sunny faces. One bad thing; it keeps me sometimes away from other important things. (Like studying or something, however that's not the issue at the present, since the semester has just started.)

This outfit I was wearing to a little family-dinner sunday. Again eating a cheese platter, seems it's becoming tradition in both families, but hey; no complains here, I love cheese! In the future I even see myself tasting some cheese and wine with my husband with some fancy clothes comme tête-à-tête, haha.

BTW: I really have to STOP taking outfit-pictures in the forenoon, when I'm not that long out of bed. Sleepy face², but haah those sundays. They're made for having a good sleep, having a little break from a heavy week. Just Zzzzzz.

wearing: skirt & boots (boohoo) - shirt (thrifted) - cardigan (primark) - necklace (h&m)

Outfit of the day: snow or green?

Brrr, still freezing cold outside. You don't hear me complain, I don't suffer that hard from this icy temperature. 
(Still learning under this sheepishly blanket with the heating to the maximum.) 
Altough the landscape has to be green, I think it's rather charming covered under this snowwhite blanket.

Long time ago, I was playing out there, romping around with the snowflakes, making this cute snowman while I could barely breath due to the superplus clothes-scarf-beanie. Haaa those times, I would love to turn back the time. Between this nostalgic thoughts I couldn't lack taking some quick outfit-pictures while the snow was still on, right?

Like I said, the landscape is white, so let's fill in the green-less nature with some green knits. Actually, green is my favourite color. From mint, to grass, to peacock or khaki. Name it and I love it. Da vinci was the first to define it as 'juvenility, spring, power, autonomy and peace'. Sounds like defining worths for myself, maybe thatz why I love it?

Anywayz, don't mind the sleepy head, I wasn't that long awake and during exams I'm rather light-intolerant, looks like the light was pretty intense, extra projected on this white floor.

Outfit of the night: disco-ball-lookalike-eighties-dress

The nillies. My time. What should I talk about when I'm retiring and have my grandchilderen coming on a visit? Would it be the conflicting forces on several areas (see: political, economic, social or natural aspects) or rather the uniforcing social media? That's the core concept of this period imo. We've been overwhelmed by facebook, twitter, instagram, soundcloud, spotify, hyves, youtube,... and that are just the most leading ones. Caring = sharing, it's the rule rather than the exception. Odd isn't it? And even in the domain of fashion, whe can't live without them. Not only blogsters but also fashion magazines, brands, webshops and others can't help but to be keen to join in. If I have to give one word to define the nillies; it would be hodgepodge. And after my demonstration, that term speaks for itself.

The eighties. That's the period I had wanna live. An intersection of bright colors & punk. I love the prototypic vision of the disco people. They looked so funny and simultaneously also fashionable. A complex image with glitters, colors, leggings and polkadots. When you say eighties, I say cool music with funny upside-down moves. Love it.

Remember the dress from this post? I felt directly in love with this disco-ball-lookalike-dress. It clearly reminds me of these golden eighties, where surplus glitter & color wasn't immediately taboo. 
I was a bit choosy how to combine this, since I wanted all eyes on the dress. So I dressed down with simple black.





 


wearing: Dress & belt (thrifted) - boots (the fab shoes) - earrings (Veritas) - bag (Essentiel)

BTW: Here's a good illustration of the eighties with a nillies electronic touch.



Happy eighties xoxo

outfit of the day: dr. Sadface



It's been a while again, but this was kinda a busy weekend. I went back to the club I've told you about in this post on sunday, even after I went saturday also to a party in the neighborhood. I couldn't get enough of it, I guess. The famous Carl Craig came to La Rocca; but although I had heard that he waz ab-so-lu-te-ly a-ma-zing, he could not redeem my expectations... But Iris Menza, who played saturday waz awesome. Seriously a girl playing such a good set, I was totally amazed... and I wasn't the only one; the vibe was absolutely great there!

So between this partying, I quickly took some outfit-pictures of an outfit I wore that week (yeah i know; better to catch outfit of the nights this weekend; but time was too short!). It reminds me a bit of Sherlock Holmes.

The coat & blouse are thrifted for only 1€/piece!!! (gotta love Think Twice) In this times of crisis: what can you buy for €1? A can of coke zero, maybe a pack of chewing gum? But a coat or blouse? Keepz me surprising!
Here some pictures, but don't pay attention to my sad faces, I had probably a bit problems with sunday-feeling with thiz awful hurricane-like winds!














wearing: coat / blouse / jacket (thrifted) - jeans (Levi's curve ID) - necklace (zara) - earrings (h&m) - shoes (pull&bear)

btw: for those who are interested (only belgians): I'm selling clothes till friday on louvintage!
