I’m finally getting more time for the blog and ideas for upcoming posts. It is a bit late but my birthday was on October 28th. I got a few things from my sisters and the sweetest. And I did gave myself a bday gift(s).
I’m also trying to find a great way how to present my photos for the blog in photoshop, so I’m still figuring out how.. or if it looks nice or not. Pugly Pixel is a great help!
I’ll start with the non fashion items first.
My older sister got me a book and said it’s a very inspiring book. It’s really nice of her but the question is, will I read it? It’s not that I don’t like the present but, I just don’t like reading. But I’ll try it, I promise! and I might do a review? or something like that.
My 2nd sister got me a few beauty products from the body shop. Once again it’s really nice and sweet. But when it comes to beauty product to me.. I’ll use it a few times and after that, it just stays in my room.. But I did try a few of them and I love it! I’ve never used scrub before but after I’ve used the chocolate, it felt so good! But the smell was a bit strong for me, so what my sister did was. She bought a mango one and asked if I wanted to switched it with her (we can be a bit weird). So at the end we split it, we both got 50/50 of each.=) She also got me a body butter from the honey collection. I’ve heard a lot from the honey collection and it smells so sweet. But I haven’t used it yet. And what I am using almost daily now, are the facial cream, cleanser, toner and something something (i don’t really know what they are used for tbh..) But it’s from the sensitive or for dry skin line, the one with the seaweed. And up till now it’s working for me. Although, I’m only using the daydream.. I just don’t know about beauty stuff a lot..
Thank you lovely sister for the presents!
Up to fashion and accessories!
The sweetest got me something very unexpected. For the dutchies, you may already know that there’s finally a Urban Outfitters in Amsterdam! No more traveling to Antwerp for the urban outfitters, all you need to do now is coming to amsterdam. So when we went there, he saw a very cute and pretty bag and I was like “OMG I NEED THAT BAG”. He’s always saying that I have to many bags already. (well everyone says that) So when he came to pick me up from my internship he said: “They don’t have that bag anymore at the urban outfitters” and I was like “noooooo, why why why”. But then I was thinking, why did he say that? And I already saw the urban outfitters bag, he covered the inside of the bag with his jacket. (wearing no jacket on a rainy and stormy day..) When he finally gave me the present, I was shocked from happiness.

Thank you ❤
And now for the clothing. At first I didn’t really thought about getting myself something.. But on the day of my birthday, I’ve got a 30% off coupon from American Apparel. I think you get it when you’re a subscriber. And I knew that there’ll be a sample sale with Poppy’s parade.nl, Motel rocks and Club manhattan. Because I had to work on the first day of the sample sale, I couldn’t go. Only on the saturday, but I was pretty tired from work and I spent the night at my sister place because i worked till late. So I wasn’t sure if I should go or not. And later I thought, you know what I’ll just go to say hi and see what they had. And I thought maybe there’s not a lot left anymore, but luckily it wasn’t.=)

The 3 items I’ve got at the sample sale are:
– Cropped light brown/dark cream woolen sweater, by Motel rocks.
I am so in love with this! It’s really thick and warm, good for the cold winter days!
– Dark wash denim skaterdress, by Motel rocks.
You should know by now that I’m in love with skater dresses. It’s cute and simple.
– Light blue floral overall, by Motel rocks from Poppysparade.nl
It was really nice of Poppy’s that they gave me the overall^^ I’m still very shy when I’m with them. But I like them very much. Sometimes I can see my two sisters and me in them. And I like being their freelancer.
And for the fox necklace. I got it yesterday. I just felt I had to go to haarlemmerstraat, after my internship. Just to look around in the vintage shops. And walking there inspires me a lot, just like the nine streets and utrechtsestraat(?). The necklace is from Jutka & Riska. It’s a really nice store, I always like to go in there and just look around. Maybe I should change from shopping at h&m and zara etc.. And start shopping more at stores like Jutka & Riska.
That’s all for the haul!
Hope you liked it and enjoyed it,
