Sweater Rookie

 

 

 I'm planning to go on a sweater hunt this week.

For some dark mysterious reason I suck in buying tops, shirts and sweaters.

I can buy a million pair of jeans and sneakers. No problem at all.

But when it comes to buying stuff to combine them with, I just suck. Period.

Why? If only I knew.

But this rookie thing has got to come to an end. Seriously.

Keep u posted on this one.

 

 

 

 

One Day

 

 

One day things will change.

When? When will they change?

...Probably when you least expect it. 

Come On And Take A Bow

 

I like my little blue bow tie, which I bought at Episode.

It makes my quite boring outfit a little less boring.

 

 

You Can Leave Your Hat On

 

 

I already bought a few beanie hats this year, but definitely gonna buy some more of them.

I'm searching for a cool one from New Era right now.

Preparing for autumn!!

 

 

 

Just A Phase

Sunday Randoms

 

So. Here's a quick update for all you lazy bastards (I love you. Thanks for reading my blog) of what I've been up to lately. Probably half of you guys is dealing with a hangover right now. Still laying in bed. Smelling like alcohol and sigarettes. Feeling miserable. Trying not to puke...

If not. Good for you. You have a whole day ahead of you, full of possibilities. Go for it tiger!

Anyway, still I'll try to make things easy for you this sunday morning.

 

- I'm more broke then I've ever been. Which is really boring, but also interesting. I never knew I was this creative cooking with just simple ingredients. Also I'm exploring things people without money do, which is quite entertaining.

- I can feel Autumn is coming and (don't you hate me know) to be honest I like it. Autumn to me means new rich fabrics, boots, blankets, wearing hats, big time cuddling, running in the rain. taking hot showers, watch good movies in bed, baking cakes like I'm a 50 year old woman and have nice dinners with friends.

-I'm a little bit done with the blogs I used to follow. To me, the styles and posts are all the same. And I need some new, fresh inspiration.

- However. LOVE to follow the blogs of Tavi Gavinson and Sara Fabel.

- I still want to buy a new camera and finally be able to take good pictures.

- I'm starting to like coffee. Extra milk, extra sugar please. I've always wanted that. Maybe it sounds crazy. But I love the thought of being able to say...'let's go grab a cup of coffee somewhere'. Or: 'let's talk about it over a cup of coffee'. Is this weird? Admit it. You love to say it too...

 

 

 

 

Beat Makers. Heart Takers

 

A nice pair of sneakers. Instant attraction.

 

Kick It Up

...when two become one, and I don't mean the 1996 Spice Girls song. I'm talking about socks and sneakers. I can't believe there was a time in my life when I tried to hide my socks. Now I have a whole section of my wardrobe devoted to them. Man..once I'm over this whole thing I don't know what I'm going to do with all these socks.

Oh Boy!

Suddenly wishing I had this piercing

 

 



Library

 

Who's that talking in the library?

Who's that talking in my library?

Is that you? No I won't put you out

Cause what would this place be without my muse

Nothing special, every book in here I wrote

Some I'm not too proud of some I wish I could burn

So many pages I wrote, wish I could revise them

But there's no erasing and the best advice I got

Was keep writing, and keep living, and keep loving

Jealousy Is So Scandalous

It's been 5 or 6 weeks since I dyed my hair and the inevitable happened: I started to miss life as a ginger kid.This simple brown colour is kinda boring me out. It's just not doing it for me. I know my friends and family sometimes think it's ridiculous that I spend a lot of money on my hair and the hairdresser. Especially because I'm always broke. 

 But I can't help it. When my hair sucks, my day sucks.

Yes. A bad hairday can ruin my day. No I will not get over it.

And Yes. I'm gonna dye it first thing tomorrow morning.

Less Is A Bore

Man do I hate sale. It's not that I don't like bargains, but it's just always too damn messy in the shops to take a good look around. But the mean reason I don't like sale are the hysterical dutch women who make the whole sale shopping situation unbearable for me. Yes, I get freaking excited too when I find something cool for a really good price.

But no, I'm not going to skydive into a pile of jeans as if my life is depending on it.

Or maybe it's just the fact that I don't master the art of sale shopping and therefore am bitching at the ones who do. Could be an option...

What I do know is that last week I was brave enough to concur the world of sale and I found these two cuties at River Island and Primark.

Don't you just love the prints?

Sunday Black And Grey

So yeah I guess you guys thought I disappeared.

But no worries..I'm still here!!

Konichiwa Bitches

I received this pair of sneakers two days ago, thanks to my friend Mo and her creditcard.

For safety reasons (ending up in the gutter, sleeping in a box) I don't own a creditcard myself.

My boyfriend doesn't like them and my roomie is convinced I want to be a Spice Girl again.

I just say: Konichiwa Bitches! A Ha A Ha

Food For Thought

How nice would it be to wake up in the morning and see something cute and colourful like this?

When I was a kid I used to collect and play with these little ponies.

Crap, I shouldn't have thrown them away..

I don't care I like these kind of childish things. Yes I shower with Zwitsal soap and yes I have Hello Kitty toilet paper and yes I drink Phineas and Ferb juice.

 It's a weird thing. When people get older, somewhere along the road they forget to have fun. They only talk about serious stuff and live their lifes the way they think it should be lived. There's no time for party and bullshit and worst of all..people forget about the things that once were their dreams. 

Sounds a bit sad maybe. Sorry about that. I didn't mean to ruin your evening.

But better to ruin it on a monday, than on a friday right?

On a hapier note, it's summer!!! I say, when you're young, wear as little clothes as possible. You have the rest of your life to be tacky and overdecorated. Grandma won't be wearing cut-offs. At least, I seriously hope not.

Jeanious / Number 2

Ok first of all, who is gonna buy this cat for me??

Lots of kisses and icecream in return!

Second of all, I promised to keep you updated on the hilarious actions and questions from costumers.

So here's another one for you..

Friday, juni 29th

Thirty something guy with Le Coq Sportif 'sneakers', plain washed blue denim jeans and printed Jack&Jones t-shirt (owww really...your mother honestly didn't buy that for you?) asks me:

'I have a jeans at home, I want the exact same one, do you have it?'

 Me: 'maybe..do you remember the model name of the jeans?'

Guy: 'No I don't'

Me: 'Ok...can you tell me what kind of model it is? Is it a bootcut model or maybe a skinny or a straight fit?'  

Guy: 'I don't know'

Me: 'What kind of color is the jeans? Dark of light?'

 Guy: I don't know...but do you have it??'

AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

One For The Books

Berlin was da bomb!! Seriously. What a great trip!

I'm still too tired to think straight. So writing is kind of impossible in this state of mind.

But I just wanted to let you know I'm back in Amsterdam and still alive, just not kicking it yet.
