Festival

Last friday i visited a festival with 2 of my friends. There where some dutch names that are quite famous here like ben saunders, handsome poets and don diablo. We had a lot of fun and the music was nice! Unfortunately it started raining when we still had 2 hours to go, but that was already predicted, so i hided savely in my pink rain poncho. ;)

Look at the cool guitarist. (ben saunders)

cuties. :) (handsome poets)

Hercules and love affair

On one hand the video is perfect but confusing because of all the visual effects. It surprises you. But on the other hand it's also a bit odd... I don't really know what to think about it.. What am I talking about? It's this video.

Change of plans.

I'm thinking about posting some more personal things and doing more outfit posts. Normally i'm not posting many personal things because i just simply always forget to take my camera with me. A few days ago me and my friends had a sleepover at my place, we made a delicious meal with a yummy dessert, which looked great. So that was a great photo opportunity. But as you can guess- i forgot to take photos. And that's how it always goes.  I guess i need to make it a habit that i'm taking my camera with me.
More outfit posts; there are still tons of outfits on my laptop, but normally i'm only posting 1 (sometimes 2) outfits a week. That's because i'm afraid i won't have any interesting outfits in the end... But i think i'll just give it a try, i always like personal/fashion blogs, like this one: nyheter24.se/modette/myblomquist/.
What do you think?

Btw. This is my last outfit post from Amsterdam!

oh yeah. ;)

Anton Corbijn

I know, i'm showing loads of exhibitions i've seen lately. But i promise; this is the last!
This one is about the work from the amazing photographer Anton Corbijn. You can still visit it at the "Foam" museum (click for the website) in Amsterdam. I can highly recommend it! This exhibition is about portraits he made from celebrities who inspire him.

Alexander McQueen and his muze Kate Moss

Lance Armstrong

This photo used to be black and white (not this brown), but my camera messed up the colours. :)

van Herpen

I'm at my aunt right now, so i leave you here with some photos of works from Iris van Herpen i've seen Tuesday. See you back on Monday!

Disco fever

Another reason why I love big cities. Nobody is looking weird when you're dressing this way. Haha. When I was wearing this to school everybody looked weird and said: "oh my god" and stuff like that. (I thought it was really funny. ;) But when I was walking through Amsterdam nobody gave me the creeps by staring at me for a long time.


Edit: normally I'm paring these trousers with a pair of high heels, but because I was shopping all day I thought comfortable was more important than beautiful.

Blouse: Topshop
Trousers: Topshop
Shoes: Kurt Geiger
Turban: selfmade
Sunglasses: market
Bag: River Island

This aren't just bags, but little pieces of art.

Visited the museum of bags in Amsterdam, and they had some amazing pieces over there! In case you're interested in visiting it, see their website here.

These things are just so good, you know.

Yummy Frozz.

Haha, this was my breakfast last monday; yogurt with fresh fruit and a black bottom cupcake.
Really, if you like cupcakes, pies and muffins, you just must visit 'de drie graefjes' in Amsterdam.
They have the best.

Pleasant suprise

I actually already had an other outfit-post planned, but because I was featured on the Sisters and sisters blog (click), you'll have to wait a bit longer for that outfit.
They 'spotted' me at the IJhallen in Amsterdam last Sunday, and I felt (I actually still do. ;) honored. Cana and Hazal are two sisters, owning this amazing blog. You should definitely visit it, they're having an effortless, amazing style! And they were also really sweet. :)/

Ik had eigenlijk een andere outfit-post gepland staan, maar omdat ik op de Sisters and Sisters blog (klik) sta, moet je nog maar even wachten op die outfit.
Ze hebben me 'gespot' bij de IJhallen in Amsterdam zondag, en ik voelde me (eigenlijk nog steeds) vereerd. ;) Cana en Hazal zijn twee zussen, met een super blog. Je moet 'm echt eens bekijken, ze hebben een geweldige stijl! En ze waren ook erg lief. :)
