Beaded Denim Shirt


Hello girls! I hope you had a lovely weekend! Sorry for the lack of posts lately, but it's really hard for me to post more often since now I have two jobs and my free time can be very limited at times. But you know I love blogging and I will try and post at least once a week. 

Anyway, back to the outfit, this is what I wore today for a bit of sale shopping. The denim shirt is  a recent purchase and it has become one of my favourite items of clothing, mostly thanks to the beaded collar. I'm a sucker for everything which has pearls attached to it, or other feminine subtle details for that matter. Also, my obsession for this Zara bag hasn't faded, since I still feed the need to carry it everywhere I go :))

Boots - Ken's Shoes (Belgium)
Leather bag with zips - Zara

I wish you all an amazing week! I'm personally very excited for next week since the European Skating Championships start, and I'm a huge skating fan. So yeah, I'm looking forward to that :)

Au revoir, lovelies x

What's in My Bag - Winter Edition

 
Hello, girls! I always love reading What's in my bag posts so I though I might as well do one. You know I love bags...you might even say I have an obsession with them, hence when Santa bought me this Zara leather bag with zips, I couldn't be happier. It was a perfect present indeed. It is very spacious, the golden hardware is gorgeous and the shoulder strap can be very handy in case it gets to heavy. So, without further ado, here's what's in my bag!



1. Glamour magazine - I always need to have something to read in my bag, weather a book or a magazine, because I get so bored on the tube when I go to work or into town// 2. My organiser - since I managed to secure a part time job at an online magazine (besides my normal, full time job) I really need to organise my time better. I also use the organiser to write article ideas, various information or certain tasks and meetings// 3. My Blackberry - without which my life wouldn't be complete// 4. Makeup bag (it will be detailed below)// 5. Orbit drops// 6. A pair of leather gloves - during winter I always need to have a pair of gloves in my bag because, obviously, it's freezing and  my hands can become really dry and coarse if I don't take care of them// 7. My purse from Guess which I bought in the summer during my holiday in Rome// 8. Some hand wipes// 9. A little pouch - where I like to keep some Nurofen pills, some bobby pins for my hair, a small sewing kit and some band aids.
 
 
Here is the contents of my makeup bag: 1. Himalaya Lip balm - I have really sensitive lips and I constantly need to hydrate them// 2. Nivea had cream - as I said, during winter my hands can become really dry, this is why I always need to carry a moisturising hand cream in my bag// 3. Lancome Juicy Tube in Lychee// 4. Small version of Moschino's Glamour - sometimes I can be very sleepy in the morning and forget to put on some perfume; this is why I always care a small perfume version with me, so that I can apply perfume later in that day// 5. Clarins face powder - I carry this powder with my because it is very light and soft, perfect for touch ups during the day// 6. A travel size face brush// 7. Small mirror - I have this mirror for about four years. I bought it during a trip to Versailles and it has Marie Antoinette on the lid. This is by far my favourite mirror.
 
So these were the things I carry in my bag on a daily basis. I hope you liked this post and you are going to have a lovely week!
 
Lots of love x

NYE Outfit

 
Happy New Year, lovelies! I hope 2013 is going to be exactly as you imagine it to be and more! Just a quick outfit post to show you what I wore yesterday evening. And what other pose says winter holidays better than the traditional "next to the Christmas tree" pose? I just couldn't resist it :) Anyway, I chose this gorgeous black lace dress from Topshop (you can find it here) which actually arrived just a few days before the big night. It is so flattering and qualitative and it has become my favourite party dress. Accessory wise, I opted for a golden statement necklace from New Look and a cocktail ring.

For my make-up I chose a golden-bronzy smoky eye with nude lips, but unfortunately my "amazing" phone wasn't able to capture it properly...
 

At midnight I went to the city centre to watch the beautiful fireworks show which lasted around 15 minutes. I had a beautiful night spent with the persons which matter the most to me. I hope you too had a wonderful night and that you are going to have an amazing 2013!

Lots of love x
