Birthday

Yaaaayyy!!! I am finally seventeen years old, it was about damn time , my birthday was two days ago and my friends got me the most amazing presents ever!! My 5 best friends bought me a pandora bracelet ( which I have been wanting since about sixt grade , my classmates got me a HUGE card ( huge is even an understatement ), a cute cupcake and some chocolates , guys , if you read this : I LOVE YOU!!

Hauled : American flag scarf!

Hi guys, I'm back ( I know, it has been an awful no-post-at-all-week) I'm not going to make up excuses, I have just been very lazy this week ( wich I shouldn't have been, laziness is an addicting disease, once you start, getting yourself into doing something again is very hard) but!!! As I said I am so totally completely back!! And today's post is going to be a mini one-item-haul :) what I bought is:.... An American flag-printed scarf!!!!
I bought it at a tiny little store in my hometown , I don't even think it has a name. It is the kind of store everyone would avoid( including me) This is the only item I have ever even slightly liked from that store. Buying an entire outfit there would make you look like a drag queen , for sure. But okay, back to the scarf, I was walking down the street yesterday , and that's when I saw it ! It was hanging outside of the store ( thank god, because that's how I noticed it) and when I saw it, I was sold!I love American flag prints and I seem to be collecting those kind of items , I have a pair of american-flag shorts, an iphonecase and now also a scarf with the beautiful print . And the best thing about it : it was only 5 euro's, BARGAIN!!!

Loves/hates April

Well, just like anyone else, I have some things I Love, but unfortunately also some things I don't really like, from now on, I will do some Love/hate posts, with this week : Shoes!!

Love :

Sebago Docksides :) definately not everyones cup of tea (definately not), but I love these! they are really easy to throw on and they look amazing with a pair of jeans . You can buy the regular navyblue ones (hello, sailor!) or you can go for this one in pretty pastels (wannahave!):

Sebago : 73 Euros :D

Hate : 


A lot of fashionistas are going to shoot me when I say this, but : Isabel Marant Sneakers. For some reason, I don't really like them, I don't think they add something to your outfit . I've seen some bloggers wear them with dresses or cute shorts, but I don't think they are that pretty (i'm sorry, Isabel ;) I do like the rest of your collection though) :p.

Isabel Marant : Euro's -> a lot :)

Collective jewellery haul

I adore Cheap jewellery, H&M / Forever 21 necklaces, bracelets, earrings and so on... I adore them and because they are cheap you can buy LOTS of them , wich is what I did the past two weeks, enjoy my collective haul !!! :D

My entire splurge! (including the Hunger games book)

H&M bracelet (Love this one! it's a stud-"ish" bangle

H&M earrings (I like the skull ones very very much :p)

Statement necklace H&M

Collar kind of necklace H&M

H&M haircuffs

Pieces Earrings

Forever 21 cross necklace

Forever 21 Anchor necklace

2 sets of Bangles - Primark

Collars

Every single season, I get extremely obsessed with one particular clothing accessory. This spring : collars ! a plain black T-shirt gets a complete make-over with a cute collar!!

This is the one (and i'm sure it wont be the last one) I bought. I found it at H&M for about 10 euros (wich is a bargain). collar inspiration:

Hauled : hair Cuff

I love cuffs! Armcuffs, earcuffs and haircuffs.And even though it's not really everyones cup of tea, ever since I saw it on some blogs , I wanted one.They can really spice up a simple ponytail ( and I work as a waitress , wich means that my hair is up in a ponytail A LOT, and ponytails get boring ;p) I have searched through every webshop I know, but never found a Cuff I liked... Until today! I found this gorgeous Cuff at H&M Leuven

Be&D stiletto sneakers

Usually, I'm not really a sneakerfan (except for converse, I adore converse) , but these sneakers have really caught my eye. The american Brand Be & D has designed sneakers for high-heel lovers. Heels may be pretty, but they are not (by far) as comfortable as sneakers. These sneakers with high-heel-print have the best of both worlds. for the price of 128 dollars (97.95 Euros) these cute sneakers are yours.

PS i made this

Hello, my beloved readers! Since I bet you are all fashionista's on a budget (maybe a few lucky ones that aren't on a budget, but anyway), I descided to share my favourite budgettip with you guys : DIY! It may sound obvious, but I discovered the DIY-world only about a year ago, All I made before were beaded bracelets (the ones you make in elementary school). I thought you needed a sewing machine and a lot of talent to make other fashionstuff. But oh, how was I wrong! I discovered a website called PS I made this,wich is the most amazing DIY- blog EVER , The DIY's look fabulous and are not even hard to do, my favourites are:

Inspired by Prada 2012 resort collection. I love statement earrings, with the perfect earrings, you don't need any other piece of jewellery.

Of course, the real Marc Jacobs mouse flats are nicer to have, but hey, fake it until you make it !

I find the basic idea of this collar wonderful, but I also think that she made it too big, since it's lace , it wil be a statement piece anyway, whether it's huge , like it is here, or a litte bit (or a lot) smaller, wich I would prefer.

Well, these are just so girly, gotta love 'em.

This clutch (made with sharpies) is just SO funny :) (I'm sorry for the small pictures, but that's how they turned out , the full-size pictures are all on www.psimadethis.com) There are way more tutorials on her website, but if i had to type them all down, my fingers would fall off ;)

Essie Luxeffects

I have to admit: I am a nailpolish JUNKIE! I buy at least 2 nailpolishes every week (wich I will have to reduce, my wallet doesn't really like it). You can imagine how amazed I was when I saw the Essie Luxeffects. The luxeffects are -as you can tell by the name- nailpolishes with beautiful effects (like glitter) on them. Even though I am on a budget, I think I am going to buy some of them, they are just waaaaaaayyy to pretty to ignore.

Je les adore!!

Style Development

When I see old pictures of myself, I don't start screaming: "OMG! WHAT WAS I WEARING!?", my style was not bad. It was just very unoriginal , I was an Abercrombie sweater-blue jeans - converse All stars kind of girl. As I said, not very original. Well, it has turned 180 degrees this year. I bought a Yellow Coat,a pair of american-flag-shorts, a sweater with Zebra's on it (not zebraprint, actual Zebra's), megamega high heels and a lot of vintage stuff. Peter pan-collars became my trademark and I started using more makeup than just a little bit of bronzer wich I only wore when I went to parties (wich is a shame for a sixteen-year old girl). Ofcourse, I still wear my converse (hello, nothing wrong with converse!) and abercrombie sweater (it's just soooo comfortable) on lazy sundays or shopping trips, but when I have the chance, I will make sure everyone has noticed (and approved) my style.

Iphonecase collection

First of all : this is not a bragpost, i received some mails of people asking me to do this ,so that's what I'm going to do.

I am just obsessed with my iPhone and its cases! I l-o-v-e love iphonecases I have my iPhone for about 4 months now, and I switch out cases to match my outfits.I have about 10 cases , wich i don't even Find that much

the most expensive one was 15 euros, and the cheapest one was 1.50 euros, wich means that I did not really spent THAT much money

Headbands

A few weeks ago, I saw a video on Zoella280390's channel (she's a part of the youtube "beauty community" or beautyguru's) and she was wearing a beautiful scarf in her hair, and I became obsessed with it. It is really easy to put in your hair , and it can spice up your hairdo.

Inspi: Astrid Bryan

"this is my pimped out-chromed-out-truck" I'm sure that the belgian people over here will know who I'm talking about : Astrid Bryan . For the people that don't know her : she blogs for "the blonde and the brunette". but most of all, she's a realitystar. She started her career in a tv show called "Vlaamse Hollywoodvrouwen"(Flemish hollywood women)Wich was about a few Belgian women living in Hollywood. Astrid was definately the most extraordinary (in a good way). since last year, she has her own realityshow "Astrid in Wonderland". A lot of people think she's Arrogant and stupid, wich I don't understand, because yeah, sure, when you only see a few clips, she does look like that. But I have seen the entire "astrid in wonderland" series, and I became obsessed with her!she is not arrogant, she just knows what se wants, and she goes for it. And even though not EVERYTHING she wears is my cup of tea, in general she has an amazing sense of style, very simple, but always very "put-together"!
