Fun Date

 

I had a fun get together with bloggers Yara and Cindy for lunch, blog stuff (arranging the fashion weeks) and shopping! and shopping I did, nom nom nom.. We also bumped into Zanita, It was so much fun finally meeting her!

I ended up drooling over Yara's studded flats and A-Wang Marion bag and Cindy's Isabel Marant boots! Me myself went for a easy look (knowing I would end up shopping and tossing around loads of bags) An easy dress with a sweater and simple All Stars!

Forget Band Tee's...

 

...because Protest is the new Black! I had a little search on the internet to find the most fashionable tee's!

1) WWF, the Panda Tee's come in really good colors that blend in perfectly with the army jackets/ olive green trend! plus the WWF vintage collection is really worth checking out as well! 

2) The Sea Shepherd tee's is a perfect substitute for any other skull tee plus it comes with the "little" extra of saving Whales! Also this tee would be amazing for diy's!

3) This pastel with yellow Free Pussy Riot tee goes with about everything plus comes with a "freedom of speech" extra!

4) Amnesty International's CBGB Pussy Riot Tee comes really close to actually being a band tee, being designed by CBGB!

5) Looking really more aggressive and edgy this Peta tank would make an amazing diy as well by adding chains along the arm and neckline! Peta has a lot of pastel t-shirts and even cropped tops as well!

6) The Sea Shepherd Cove Guardian Tee is here to stop the killing of Dolphins in Japan! Has anyone seen the documentary "the Cove"? I couldn't believe my eyes when seeing it and still can't believe it's still happening today!

OUTFIT: pastels with loafers

 

Wearing: H&M Doggy print Top and Scalloped Shorts, Lucette Bag, Zara velvet loafers. H&M cuffs, Aldo bracelet.

Couldn't resist the somewhat dodgy dog print! I toned down the cuteness of the look just a little bit by hiding the bow of the top (tucked it inside), by tucking the top in the shorts and by wearing blue velvet loafers with the pastels since things tend to go all "overkill-cute" on me really fast haha 

Now I'm of to Amsterdam for some shopping and lunch with Yara and Cindy!

No Drama

 
Zara Girls Print Linen T-Shirt  (gray color is Me, the white color is Alexandra Spencer from 4thandbleeker!)

I'm so honored to be on another Zara T-Shirt! This is my favorite "cocorosa/Zara" t-shirt by far because I love the "No Drama" so much haha (see the original photo/post here)

Thank you Happy Punt!!

OUTFIT: White, Gold and Studs

Wearing: Zara dress ($10 on sale), Chanel Bag, Forever21 boots, H&M jewelry (metal collar necklace + cuffs)


Enjoying the Heatwave in a new dress I bought on Sale in the Zara! The dress was the only one left in a size Medium, so actually a size to big! but for $10 is was worth the tiny effort of taking it in myself ;) The collar Necklace and cuffs are new as well (H&M) and I'm wearing a necklace underneath the collar for that little "extra"

Things To Do in your Weekend: DIY collars

The Detachable, Studded and Embellished Collars aren't going anywhere just yet, they are here to stay a bit longer and blend in beautiful into the coming Autumn/Winter season! So yes, what better way to spend your weekend getting creative and crafty on Collars? There are so many DIY's so I just picked a few of my favorites for upcoming season!

Yes, the metallic collar necklace would be a bit out of your average diy-league but luckily for us it's a below $15 H&M piece! I actually bought the necklace yesterday and think it would just look perfect with about any blouse, top and dress!

Atlantic Pacific shows us how delicious diy studded collars look! She actually worked with this tutorial by Cheetah is the new Black, another amazing tutorial for a detachable studded collar: here

Leave it up to Honestly WTF to figure out how to make scalloped peter pan LV collars and showing us how to do it in this tutorial here and the variations you can make are endless, for example; what about pearls?

OUTFIT: Trapeze

 

Photos by Sander Lak

Wearing: TopShop Top, H&M necklace, Zara skirt, Forever21 boots, Celine Trapeze Bag (a friend's)

No I'm not anywhere fancy! Spending a day in the Zoo with friends who came over from Antwerp for the day! The nice part about this Zoo (Burgers Zoo) is that they actually re-build a giant Jungle, Desert, Mangroves and an Ocean so in a way we did kind of feel like being on Vacation which was a reason for us to act like it of course! Only part missing was a Beach, hopefully they will build it soon ;) for the Turtles of course, it's still a Zoo..
