Photoshoot ft. Alice's pig

So I just got some stunning dresses from the London brand Alice's pig!

With as inspiration their great aunt Alice, who not only wore but also made her own enviable looks, and her motto: 'Wonderland is everywhere, so you'd better be dressed for it!" Amanda and Nico design the most unique and extraordinairy clothing worthy of Wonderland!

The thing I love the most about these two dresses is how these dresses aren't only chic and party ready but with the right dressing can go for any occasion because of how comfy they are.

Together with my occasional photographer (I do all my daily shoots myself) and friend Maaike Lust I did a  'Red riding hood' fairytale-esque shoot in the Woods and dunes.

To be fair I don't know what to say more about it, but I also believe the images speak for themselves!

Hope you like them and get inspired!

Third summer shoot: All black in summer!

Black in summer

So all black in summer totally managable if you'd ask me! If it gets really hot it's smart to think about what kind of fabrics you wear though. Cotton, linnen, fabric with little patrons so the wind passes through that kind of items. Another thing people easily forget in summer is the shape of a top. For example this blouse had tiny holes in it, but still the fabric can get pretty hot. This is no problem here cause the blouse is losely shaped. A tight top in summer is almost a guarantee for sweat stains!

Going All black but not boring

Not all people like to wear all black anyways thinking it gets too boring or too gothic. A way to make sure an all black look stays interesting is to wear differt fabrics! In this case the lace from the shorts and little dot print from the blouse. But you've got so many different fabrics to combine: Leather, suede, wool, acryl, cotton etc. or just a print!

Another tip is black is black, but you do have see through or just plain black. If you add a see through piece every look feels just a little less dark. Or you can opt for a piece with holes in it.

First summer shoot: denim patched up

So last Saturday me and my friend did a shoot to give you guys a better and closer look of my outfits!

My first outfit features a few of my fav items in the closet; denim shorts, blouses and buckleboots! Plus the popular trend; patches!

I love how the buckle boots immediatly add a bit of a tough feel to the whole look.  Although a lot in my closet may look chic I am a sucker for the cowboy feels you see everywhere. Also ankle boots are my weakness. I have too many black ones and wear them even through summer..said enough?

Cowboy feels+ankle boots= buckle boots

I hope you guys love this look and get some inspo!

A Day in the life of a look

D E T A I L S * of today

Musthave: The redlip

When you wear red lipstick you're done. No more make up necessary! It's my go to look when I want to look freshfaced and well put together, but don't feel like putting on make up ( for me this is anyday and everyday). How many times I have put on red lipstick and have been asked if I had 'special' plans! No way mom! You know it's just me and Netflix! I would never do anything to break our special bond.. *whispers to herself* not that there are many volunteers for these 'special' kind of plans... nevermind!

But what I am trying to say; a red lip rocks any outfit and makes it look chic and sexy!

Some inspo plus lipsticks I love below!
* Mac matte 'Lady danger'
* Mac matte 'Diva'

* NYX matte 'Alabama'
* Rimmel Provocalips 'Play with fire'
* Maybeline color drama 'Red essential'

In the bag

So when on vacay you can't go all nuts with packing.. something I tell myself as a mantra while stuffing as much as possible in my suitcase.. this year I decided to pack light(er) and make before I go, some picks for possible different looks with the same clothes. Here are a few examples! See how my bathing suit doubles as a cool top? And the same short with a different top makes a whole new look?
