URBAN SHOTS

Hello, hello!
Finally, my first outfit post! And if one outfit post wasn't enough, I also included the outfits from two of my closest friends: Rachel&Liesa
A gathering of just the three of us was long overdue and today was the day. I loved today, simply because we got along from the minute the three of us sat down to have an early dinner, and that without having to pretend. After dinner we went to Starbucks and took like 50 selfies just to get the perfect picture of us, and you can bet your a**, we were the loudest in the room. Anyways, I apologize for the not-so-HD-quality pictures.. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera with me, but still wanted to capture our outfits.

To start off, I want to show you what I wore. I personally love mixing different styles. My favorite mix would be combining a laid-back chic outfit with sneakers and how I like to say it, a bag to die for. I went for a simple outfit today, which is perfect for my first outfit post, boyfriend jeans, blouse underneath a sweater, modern bomber jacket, and a ridiculously, huge scarf to make it more casual. And not to forget, sneakers, which are, if you know me well, my go-to kind of shoes.

Now, on to the outfits of my beloved girls.

To me, whatever they may wear, it will always be fashionable in my eyes. They never fail to amaze me with their choice of outfits. When I think about friends that own that unique sense of style, I immediately think of them.. Plus, fashion is one of our #1 topics! 

I hope, after viewing these pictures, you can comprehend and agree with what I was saying before.
They both have different styles as you can see, and yes, they always wear perfectly styled outfits, and if that isn't good enough, they wear it with so much confidence too.

I hope this was an "okay" first outfit post. Bear with me again for the lack of HD pictures. I'M SORRY. I wish for myself, many, many more meet ups with these fabulous girls. 

R&L, if you are reading this. YOU ROCK, MY WEST/EASTSIDE BI*CHES.

BEAUTY FAVORITES FEB

Hello, hello. I know, I might be a tad early with my february favorites, but to be honest, I've been using minimal make up lately and have been giving my skin a bit of a rest.
Anyways, I've picked out 8 beauty products, that I have been using "constantly" for the past few weeks.

L'ORÉAL Perfect match foundation: I'm honestly not sure, if this is the same formula as the true match, let alone if it IS the true match foundation, just named differently. But I'm 100% sure, that I love this foundation! It feels light on your skin, but still covers up blemishes and imperfections. It actually stays on for a decent amount of time and doesn't look all caked up after awhile. I personally have (oily) combination skin, but this foundation gives me the perfect balance of a matte finish and enough moisture.

NIVEA aqua effect regenerating night creme: This creme is specifically for oily to combination skin and it works perfectly. Like it says, it is a night creme and I like to apply this before going to bed and I kid you not.. my face feels smooth and hydrating the day after. For me personally, it didn't affect my skin in any way and I didn't break out from it, which is pretty much a good sign!

O.P.I. nailpolish: Unfortunately, I accidently scraped off the sticker with the name on it, so I can't tell the colors name of this nailpolish, but it is a beautiful dark grey shade with a hint of navyblue. Sometimes, black nailpolish can look so harsh and "dark", so I find that this nailpolish is the perfect alternative.

MAC Prep+Prime in "Light": During winter I loved doing dark, warm and deep make up looks, but now that spring is soon approaching, I've been wearing nudes quite a lot. That's when this little guy comes in handy, because I personally think, it is the perfect eyeshadow base for neutral colors.

ELF blush in "Pink Punch": You know that slight coloring on your cheeks when it is freezing cold outside? This is the exact color that it gives me when applying this blush. Not only does it look like you just came in from the coldest winter day, but it even looks natural on you cheeks, which I really appreciate.

BOBBI BROWN Long-wear cream shadow in "Beach Bronze": Whenever I'm in a hurry and I don't want to leave my lids blank, this is what I usually go for. A shimmery, bronzed cream shadow. Honestly, what's not to like about this? It is easy and fast to apply but, it still looks like you've put quite a work into your eye makeup look. Hashtag lazy.

THE BODY SHOP Extra virgin minerals in "102 Natural Ivory": My favorite powder to set my undereye concealer and preventing from creasing. It does not only set my concealer, it also gives my face this beautiful, settled sheen.

ESTÉE LAUDER Signature lipstick in "Vintage Mauve": Spring is just around the corner, so I'm seeking out my dark and bold lipsticks for the last couple days of winter. Like always, I still want to keep it neutral and I've been wearing this lipstick almost daily. The perfect shade between brown, nude and burnt orange. Hard to explain, but let's just say, when wearing this lipstick, I feel like I'm in the late 90's, and I love it.

FAV SPRING TRENDS 2015

Hello, hello! I know, I know, I haven't posted anything in months. I feel really bad tho. I was trying, really trying, to keep my NY resolutions, but I (kinda) failed. Well, it's still not too late, is it? But, I'm actually really motivated for this years spring, plus to post more than I usually do. But for now, I picked out my personal favorite spring trends for 2015.

It's the season of patterns, flats and lots of colors! 

1. Chalk pinstripe dress by ALEXANDER WANG: Simple, comfortable and chic. The three most important features I look for, when it comes to tops. Or generally clothes. Definitely, my favorite piece of clothing, which you can throw on, dress down and even dress up. Plus, the collar makes it even more fashionable and sort of boyish.

2. Drew mini leather shoulder bag by CHLOÉ: THE current BAG, and definitely the most seen one. And I can totally understand why. The clean appearance of this bag just completes the whole outfit. Somehow it reminds me of the Valentino Lock bag, but just girlier and more elegant. I purposely chose the color yellow, because it is definitely my favorite color for spring. In need of a structured and small yellow bag! 

3. 90-degree cut out shoulder: To be honest, I used to hate this style when I first came across it. It looked unfinished, or incomplete to me, which I just couldn't appreciate. But I've seen designers coming out with blouses, sheer blouses, and it's like a whole new trend overall. Somehow, I like the idea of something unfinished now, it just shows us that, it doesn't have to be completely finished in order to be perfect. (Just like in real life, huh?)

4. Cut out flats by CHANEL: Those shoes. They make you think: Are these shoes too hot for spring/summer or too cold for fall/winter? The best definition of in-between. After all, I would wear these unique flats in spring, mostly because they look perfect with dresses. I chose these particular ones, because a, I love unique cut out shoes and b, because oxford shoes.. Enough said.

5. Skirt 'Pretty as Picnic" by ALAÏA: The Picnic trend may not be everyones cup of tea, but it is totally mine. It's different and something not everyone dares to wear. It looks so vintage to me, which is, if I haven't mentioned already, a total bonus for me, since I really adore vintage pieces. The fact that it looks fresh and young, makes you even more excited for spring to finally come. 

6. Crystal Choker by ALEXANDER MCQUEEN: McQueen was/is known for its artistry and unique pieces and it was actually quite difficult for me to pick out a choker, so I went with the most neutral one, a silver-tone swarovski choker. Definitely not an everyday accessory, but I am allowed to drool and dream over this magnificent piece, right?
