in between

You guys definitely reacted well to my idea of making a Guide to Amsterdam. Here are some points about it:

- I'm not going to put all the reviews in one post. Any post considering the guide will be labeled that way. ('Guide')
- Requests are very welcome: I'll start off with the vintage shops and the restaurants we visit, but if you want to know about any other store you can tell me so in a comment.
- It'll not be a daily thing, because I don't have time to visit these places everyday, and if I'm going to do any restaurants.. well, we eat out only so often (today we are though, because it's my birthday :))
- Guide posts will include 1. Information (such as the address, but also a little bit of the background) 2. Price ranges 3. Pictures when that's allowed 4. Buys (shops) and recommendations (restaurants).

I'm really looking forward to doing this! If I feel like it, I'll probably post a review tomorrow about the Japanese restaurant 'Kagetsu', a delicious place where we've eaten a couple of times already..

the brainstorm


Polo, Hema. Skirt, H&M. Cardigan, Benetton. Tights, Hema.

Let me tell you the headband-story that everyone at my home is now familiar with. You know coals, that you use for fire places? Well, they come in sacks. The sack is made of some kind of netting, and it is tied into the form of a bag with a string.

Now you know :)

EDIT: I have some kind of offer. I'd really want to make a sort of guide through Amsterdam, considering vintage shops and flee markets. This way, if you guys ever come over here, you know where to look. Also I have a good reason to visit all these amazing places when needing to write reviews ;) If you're interested, I could list some other shops and maybe even restaurants too.. I'd love to do so, but I'd need some peoples interested alright.. :) 'think about it'.

kiss or diss the swordy fis-h

I just wanted to mention that this song, which isn't new or anything but still, just hypnotizes you. And not only because of its oh-my-goody-ness. It's the melody, too, that gives you this big turning eyes and stuff. Call me a total idiot because everybody else does, but for me it's true.

That's all.

(Felt like Miranda here :# )

i thought it would feel different

Hmm, what should I wear. Let's start with a shirt. That's pretty chilly, though.. Add a vest, keep my torso warm.. Now my arms are cold, so, a cardigan, yes. Such a mismatch though, gotta do something about that.. How about some necklaces to add the messy effect, yes, that one, no, this one.. how about that one? Haven't worn it in a long time..



Cardigan, Benetton. Vest & tree shirt, H&M. Jeans, Levi's. Ladybug necklace, from childhood. Fish necklace, DIY (from key chain).

get cold when i talk to you

A more 'me' outfit, something that has taken a while. This is about my basis, for an uninspirational day (and the way I 'differently' dressed before knowing there was more to it): a high-waisted skirt, tights (preferably colored wildly), and a shirt. There ya go.



Cardigan, H&M Young. Shirt/skirt, H&M. Tights, Hema. Shoes, Zipper.

Forget what I said, in the last post, about H&M and all ;)

Oh, before I forget: I've made Tumblr and Twitter accounts yesterday. (One of each ;) ). Enjoy, or something.. :')

oh the little things you do

Today was HOT. Too bad I didn't quite know.. Me, with my 'should I wear shorts or not' in the morning decided not to, because no one would, right?
Wrong. Even the peoples in my class that never wear anything leg-baring, wore shorts or skirts and stuff. I on the other hand was in jeans. A long-sleeve. (Which I could take off, fortunately, but still. Let's add the drama).


Blue top, Hema. Shirt, vintage. Jeans, Levi's.

I find myself wearing H&M less and less.. the only thing today was my underwear but you didn't really need to know that..
