EMMY 2014; TOP 3 BEST DRESSED

The EMMY's always are an annual party where girls get to wear gorgeous dresses and pretend to be princesses going to their ball, at last. So why is it, that this year the percentage of gorgeous dresses on the red carpet was unbelievably low? Seriously, even I had troubles picking a top three, a top three that was REPRESENTABLE, I mean. But you know, if you watch the red carpet event on E! enough times, you might get the beauty of some of these dresses.

For example, Sofia Vergara. It's like it's MADE for her. You know, which it probably was. But still, it hugs her curves like a charm and the inward going print accentuates her waist even more. Plus, the off-white colour greatly compliments her latina skin. But you know, it's a floor-length Roberto Cavalli. Need I say more?

This is definitely something I would wear. You know, if I ever got invited to anything. It's sexy, classy, and flattering in all the right ways without screaming for attention.

Too bad we can't see the shoes. That's the best part.

MTV VMA; TOP 3 BEST DRESSED

Good gracious, is that Nicki Minaj without her boobs on full display? It can't be! Is this even her? YES IT IS. This might be the first time I've ever seen Nicki Minaj in a somewhat, for her, classy dress. She's all covered up, in a gorgeous body con dress with long sleeves, imprinted by an Anaconda (looking) print. Fitted, since she performed her single ''Anaconda'' later that night. Quite the happening, too, since apparently one of her backup dancers got bitten by the anaconda she brought on stage, the friday before. But do not fear, it's not life-threatening. Just fucking painful. Nicki better doubled her salary.

I love how this look is so simple. Nicki usually overdoes it, by choosing in-your-face statement dresses, and jazzing those up even more by using accessories, hairpieces and weird fucking heels. You know the stunts Nick pulls.
But this time she opted for classy (what to me look like Louboutins, but I'm not sure) nude heels with a slight platform. Kept everything classy. Nice one Nicki.

Look at the dude in the back, though. He definitely steals all spotlight. Them keycords, oef.

A DAY IN A FAIRYTALE

For those of you who don't live in The Netherlands, or do, but just have never heard of this amusement park (shame on you), I like to tell you that this park is not like any other amusement park. It doesn't just have roller coasters and fun rides, good food and fast food, a clean toilet, or a great giftshop. This, my friends.

This is pure magic.

PINAFORE'S AND OVER-THE-KNEE TIGHTS!

Over the knee socks were always a fashion fantasy of mine. I never really wore them, though, because it felt like too much of a hassle to constantly tugg them up. What a drag throughout the day. But everything changed when the fire nation attacked. Nah, just kidding. This ain't avatar. Everything changed when I made my way through primark on a rainy day. Because that is where I discovered my first ever; over-the-knee TIGHTS.

These things were great. And I'm talking GRANT. It was instant Japanese schoolgirl look, without the risk of the wind blowing your skirt up, or some creep trying to wisk up your dress. It was comfortable cuteness. Now can you believe that? Who would've thought there would come a day that allowed comfort in fashion? The day is here my friends. It has finally come, the invention that allows girls to be fashionable, and have a day of fun without having to keep their skirt in place, and without the constant checking if the socks haven't sacked to below your knee. WOMAN ARISE, WE SHALL SUCCEED!

..Until they discontinued them at Primark.

Fuck. 

MOM JEANS? YES PLEASE!

So because Lou Teasdale is one of my style inspirations, one thing that can’t possibly miss from your wardrobe, are mom jeans. These ones from Topshop, to be exact.

Lou obviously has a skinnier frame than I do, but that didn’t stop me from wearing oversized, somewhat fatning, acid wash, highwaisted denim mom jeans. When combined in the right way, even the chubbier girls can get away with oversized items, including this one. As long as the accentuated chubby part is concealed, you have nothing to worry about.

In my case, I had to cover up my bum and bigger thighs. If you haven’t noticed already, my ass is it’s own continent. You haven’t noticed? Good. That’s because I opted for a longer coat, that covers my backside. If you’re a little on the small side, like me, don’t worry about chopping of some leg length. Just add a small heel and it’s retained!

Or a high heel. You know, whatever.

EP RELEASE PARTY!

My sister is finally ‘kind of’ getting the hang of this fashion photography thing. The plan was to shoot at the actual venue though, but once it started raining there was no chance of me getting there without frizzy hair, so inside the house it was. It’s such a shame actually, since it’s not doing my camera quality any justice. Anyhow, here’s my attempt to look somewhat sexy. Featuring my new Steve Madden babies ofcourse!


This croptop I'm wearing is from Topshop, and I gotta admit, it's kind of itchy. BUT, that's okay because the warmth it gives you makes up for it. Kind of. If you wear it with a thick coat. And scarf. Listen I'm just trying to justify the purchase, okay? Leave me be. Lets just focus on the thing I like most in this picture. THE LIPSTICK. Diva by MAC, to be exact. Doesn't it seem like the perfect name for this deep red, with hints of purple color? Diva diva diva..


Talking about diva, can we talk about the shoes? The shoes, please, the shoes. I got these fantastic faux hair, leopard print, wedge boots. I found it very Danielle Bernstein of me. But alas, even though I loved them to bits, I had to return the babies because if the zipper. This metal demon of hell kept rubbing against my ankle, leaving painful red marks! Thank god I got my money back.

BACKPACKS AND DUSTERCOATS!

So I was planning on making a haul video, considering I haven’t made one for while now. During the period that I didn’t show you anything, I made a lot of purchases. I mean, Topshop sale started, my salary just came in.

You do the math.

So in honour of my planning to make a haul video, I thought, why not make a few blog posts, with all of my new pieces? That way I can show exactly what potential I saw in them.

If you’ve been following my splendid (not) blog for while, you’ll know that my style varies, it depends on whatever I’m in the mood for. It’s like my taste in movies. One day it’ll be romcom, the next it’ll be horror. This case, bad concert dvd.

You might wanna pause that one.

So whats new in this picture? Everything.

My slighty SEE-THROUGH BLOUSE IS NEW COLLECTION FROM TOPSHOP, with the always so FANTASTICO JONI JEANS, AGAIN FROM TOPSHOP. Paired with my new favorite KIMONO DUSTERCOAT FROM, DRUMS RUFFLE PLEASE, TOPSHOOOOOP!

IT’S A ROYAL (PURPLE) SUMMER!

So now that my Haul May/June 2014 video is up. I decided it was a great time to post the outfit I had in mind when I picked up my new Forever21 high waisted skirt. It’s PURPLE. I never really wear skirts on a normal day to day bases, but I figured it was time for me to cut the monochrome crap, and get out of my comfy zone. Don’t worry, no self esteem was harmed in this video. I thought my legs looked hideous though, out in the open without anything to cover them. 

But you know what, it was all in my head. There is nothing wrong with my legs. And I secretly knew that. I had spent so much time reading Vogue, scrolling through Tumblr, looking at models and their 5’9, 50 kg weighing bodies, that I totally lost sight of what a realistic body looked like. 

Everyday we’re being convinced that ‘model thin’ is THE norm for beauty. Which is ridiculous. They have great legs. I have long hair. You might have beautiful sparkly eyes. No, I am SURE you have beautiful sparkly eyes. AND amazing cheekbones. Everybody has something to be proud of. And everybody is beautiful. You are beautiful. Maybe not according to the media. But fuck them.

We’re creating our own media.
