Whenever I’m doing my nails, I never stay with one colour at the time. I like it to be more playful. Sometimes I go with one color and I’ll find 1 or 3 shades to match with the first color. Continue reading

Lazy Oaf x Garfield
I just finished my work but I still need stay in the office for my hours. I love friday’s because of it’s almost weekend, but I hate friday’s because I’m almost every friday alone at this hour.. And when I finished everything, there’s not really something to do for me. Oh wait there is! Blogging!
We all know that lazy orange cat with a big mouth. And ofcourse Lazy Oaf had to put this cat in a collection.I love their Looney tunes collection and now they just released a Garfield collection. I can’t really describe why I love this collection. But I can tell you that the prints reminds me of the 90’s for some reason. Oh and the way how they made their preview video.
Cats don’t jump sweatshirt – £65.00
Thats what Im talking about T-shirt – £35.00
Beanie (it also comes in pink) – £20.00
Lazy Oaf is brand with fun and wild prints. And sometimes you need to get out of your comfort zone and wear something crazy, different and fun. At some point, you’ll like prints more than how much you liked basic pieces. Now I’m getting older and spring is here and summer is coming. I don’t want to wear only black, white or grey pieces anymore. And now look at me, looking for prints and more colors for my wardrobe.
Lazy Oaf is one of the best stores when you want to try something different and crazy. It can be a little pricy but it’s all worth it. And if you’re lucky, you can find something in the sale section too! I wished we had a store like Lazy Oaf here in Amsterdam too.
What is your favorite piece of this collection and what do you think of it?

Zara SS’14 || My favorites
It’s been a while since I did a favorites post. I love Zara and i’m probably surfing on their site twice a week? It is a pretty expensive store and the best time to purchase from there is during the sale seasons. Unfortunately, they only have 2 sales periods a year. The mid-season sale is running everywhere (or was) but Zara just don’t do more than 2 sales periods a year! 😦 But there are some good finds with low prices!
My monthly budget is a bit lower than it used to be, since I don’t have a part-time job anymore. But I’m okay with that. It’s just a shop-a-holic therapy! I’ll enjoy by staring at this 13″inch screen and maybe i’ll illustrate an outfit with things I see and like!
Enough with the babble and let’s get into it!
Oversize crop shirt – pink. 25.95 EUR
Who doesn’t like crop tops? Well I’m in love with them!
It comes in white too, but since my closet is more monochrome and not so much color, I thought that this might be a good shirt to add in my closet. And honestly I think that the pastel trend will never end.
Shirt with pleated back. 25.95 EUR
Again, a pastel colored shirt. I really like shirts with collars and when it’s a bit oversized. What I like about this one are the rolled up sleeves. And have you seen the back? I think the back gives it a good touch to it and different.
Combination sheer Tee with text.
25.95 EUR
So lately, I’ve become in love with items with a combination of sheer fabric. I don’t know why or how, but I just like the way it looks and the effect you get. It creates depth? And it’s good for the spring and summer time. And I like the text on it and the way they put it. I love graffiti.
Text T-shirt. 9.95 EUR
I think It’s a fun and playful T- shirt. I work a lot with fonts and text and it can be something that I would make. The “please” tee, reminds me of Agnus of Despicable me. Just imagine her voice and the way she would say it.
Printed dress with back zip. 29.95 EUR
So I’ve been eyeing on this for a while now and I’m in love with it. But the only thing is, I’m not a fan of the high crew neck(?) But I do think that, without that neckline that this dress won’t look that good as it is now.
Leather biker jacket. 149.00 EUR
If you know me, you know that I love leather/biker jackets. Or jackets with leather details. And I love zara jacket and coats a lot. Most of my jackets and coats are from zara. A biker jacket suits very well with everything, it’s very versatile. And leather will never be a no no to me.
Oversize denim jacket. 45.95 EUR
I saw StyleSuzi with this jacket in a haul of her and I was like DAMN I NEED THAT! It brings you back to the 90’s. And I have no more words left to say. I already own a denim jacket of zara and I love and enjoy wearing it. I get a lot of compliments with that jacket and I think it’s of good quality, I can tell you that! And this jacket will be my first blue jacket. I only own black/olive green/grey and brown jackets/coats.
Soft blucher. 29.95 EUR
I love to wear flats and oxford kind of shoes. They are comfy and easy to pair with. And they are cute, that’s a plus!
High heel ankle boot with laces. 79.95 EUR
Somewhere last year, they came with a very similar boots. And I really liked them, but I was too late to get my hands on them. It was from the Autumn/winter collection and went on sale during the summer sale. But like I said, I missed my chance. And ever since then, those boots were following me everywhere.
Chelsea leather ankle boot with chain detail. 89.95 EUR
I love ankle boots, I love cut out boots and I love chunky chains! What can I say more?
Multicolor effect collar. 19.95 EUR
Okay I’ll be honest with you, It’s not that kind of necklace that I would wear but I liked the color combination and it’s a perfect item for the spring and summer days. It’s easy to pair with a plane white or maybe even black shirt. But you don’t want to pair it with printed shirts, that’s a no no.
Limited edition necklace. 22.95 EUR
Can someone tell my why it’s called “limited edition”? I mean, it’s just a simple necklace with layers. I really like this necklace, you can wear it with everything. But isn’t it a bit too overpriced for a necklace like this?
Mini gusseted messenger bag. 27.95 EUR
I saw this little bag, a week ago in store from far. And I was curious about it, because I wondered what it actually is. I mean from far you can’t see it that well. So I picked it up and looked at it and was like, “Heey there’s a white pouch inside it!” and I was playing a bit with it, while my sister was trying on some shoes.. And I went to her with this little bag with a happy face and she was like “huh..okay” I wanted to get it, but everyone knows that I have enough bags. (just face it Ellen, you can’t have to many bags)
Leather pouch. 19.95 EUR
It’s another item that I’ve been eying for! I’ve seen it many times at bloggers and on fashionlista. But somehow, I couldn’t find it anywhere. Not online and not in store so I am a bit surprised that I finally found it now! But again, I have to many bags and pouches now..
Crackled leather handbag. 49.95 EUR
The leather lunch bags, bags are in scene for a few years. And I still love them! And I wanted to make my own, but didn’t had the time…
And that was all my favorites! What are your favorites and what do you think of their prices?
