Earmuffs and gossip girl

I'm having a great weekend. One of the reasons for that: A gossip girl marathon! It's so refreshing to have a weekend off after months of non stop working on various things, and I try to enjoy it as much as possible. I know it's a shame I haven't seen gossip girl before, but now I have, I became totally addicted to it. However, besides the fact it took me some effort to turn off the DVD player, I'm here now and I want to show you the outfit I wore yesterday. It's very winter proof again, because of the extremely low temperatures we're experiencing in Holland at the moment. I changed my beloved grey coat (previous post) into my faux fur coat and went outside while being amazed at the stability that the platform shoes gave to me when I walked through the snow. So even though an outfit like this doesn't look like the perfect outfit to conquer cold and snowy days, it definitely is.

The Russian

A faux fur hat or headband always reminds me of Russia. And even though I don't have Russian roots or something like that, I totally love the chic look and, probably even better, the warmth that such a headpiece provides. The cold hit us this weekend, so it was the perfect opportunity to wear mine for the first time. It's a gift from my grandmother, and I can't describe how happy I'm with it. I don't want to take it off anymore! So, let the trip to Moscow be reality soon. I'm ready for it.

The investment

I'm so excited. I devised some great ideas for the blog today. I'll implement them before the end of the year, and I'm really curious whether you'll like it. But for now: The outfit I wore last Friday. It's funny for me to see this faux fur vest, because it has been in use for a very long time now. My mother and I bought it in the early days of 2005 (so almost seven years ago), so you can say we ran ahead of the trend for a number of years. After she wore it a couple of years, she allowed me to adjust it so that it would be fitting for me. I'm wearing the vest for three years now, and I still love it. It has proved to be a good investment. :)

My furry friend

I was totally into glamour last week. And what's better to get a glamorous look than a faux fur coat and wavy hair? I really like my renewed coat. I made some adjustments to it a couple of weeks ago, because I didn't like the collar it had. Now my furry friend is just as I want it to be, and I can't stop wearing it because it's perfect to brave the cold (and to stay fashionable when doing that).

Let's rock this shit

After my latest outfitpost with the cute dress, I thought it would be cool to post a thougher look. And do you think there are better ingredients for a though look than leather, faux fur, a ripped jeans and a snake bracelet? The destroyed jeans and the oversized leather clutch are DIY, and I already introduced you to my feet's leather companions yesterday. Soooo, what do you think?

Alice in Wonderland

I'm not sure - to say the least - if this is my best outfit, but I want you to show my new shoes ánd this adorable tutu. I just saw a ballerina-inspired editorial and even though it was beautiful, I'm not sure if I'll follow this trend. Though, I wanted to try it by means of the tutu and these pictures are the result of it. If you're following my blog or my twitter, you might have noticed I'm a bit busy at the moment. Maybe that's a clearance for my appearance on the pictures. I blame the tiredness (and the bad lights because of the terrible weather), haha.

L'amour du jour

You can say that some clothing makes it easier to make friends than other clothing. If this is true, you'd make a lot of new friends when you're wearing this dress. Namely, it has a very high cute-level. The floralprint is a bit vintage-looking and the lacebow on the back makes it all the more adorable. Honestly, I've to confess that I didn't look the whole day like I do on the pictures. I didn't wear my glasses and I wore my hair down. But my eyes hurt a bit, so I decided to grab my glasses - I didn't hate the fact I've to wear my glasses with this outfit because one I think the black of the glasses fits well with the outfit and two it's more comfortable to wear my hair up with this scarf (and I always combined glasses with my hair up, I think it looks better). The boots are still my favorites, because they are comfortable, gorgeous ánd they protect my legs against the cold (it's so freezing at the moment).
