A little sneak peek from my trip to London! I'm busy the next two days but I promise I will update asap! I didn't buy a lot but I'm quite happy with my purchases. I think you can guess what's in the Topshop box?

London Calling
A week after friday the 13th I'm back with some good news (not that the other news wasn't good but you know what I mean). I'm leaving for London in the morning and I'm pretty excited about it. It'll be the first time I visit the largest metropolitan city in the UK! I've asked some of my fellow fashion peeps about some good shopping tips and I've got a few. But to be honest: I think I'll only buy some Topshop and maybe some vintage in Notting Hill! Or maybe I might stop by Urban Outfitters to buy that awesome 'Hangover' tee that Betty has got (my boyfriend said I had to buy it... reason enough?). Oh well... Here's a wish list of things I would want to buy. The absolute number one thing? The Pippin ankle boots but then in black. The sunglasses case would come in very handy since my Ray-Ban case is completely ruined. A ring never does any harm and I would by the Stars and Stripes running shorts with the excuse: 'I'll run in it!' - No, I won't. I'm also in search of some loafers but the pink monk shoes will do as well. Things I haven't put on the list? Well... a thousand pounds maybe? No, just kidding. A jeans and a pastel colored shirt have been on my mind as well. We'll have to see with what I come back. I'll let you know for sure!

Murielle, Jeremy and Karl
It was Friday the 13th and I honestly thought something would happen to me. Why? Because luck isn't always on my side and my birthday is on a 13th every year (no idea what that has to do with it, but oh well...). This time was different! Maybe because I had my lucky charm a.k.a. my classmate and good friend Marijke with me? Yep, I'm sure that did the trick! Because a day with her never seems to go wrong. Anyways, we went to Gent with one goal: steal away all the beautiful things at La Fille d'O! And we kind of did. I bought this beautiful 'Satine Noire' bra and Marijke bought the most awesome Unicorn boots and something sexy which will remain secret on this blog ^-^ Afterwards we went for some more shopping. You guys might not know it, but Marijke is an expert at sales shopping... she did her job and look what she found for me! A hugeeeee Jeremy Scott for Adidas shirt and an awesome Karl Lagerfeld tee. Both are for guys, but what do I care? I have an excellent idea to shoot an outfit post with the Adidas shirt. I hope I can call up my 'photographer' and schedule, haha. See you soon!

Do it like a dude
 |
| Levi's - UPR |
The press days are over and we're back to the second friday of the month. Blogger seemed to have some trouble today but I actually didn't notice anything at all (might have been because I was not home all day). Today I'll give you guys an overview of what I saw and liked at the press days in Brussels and Antwerp. It consists of collection for next autumn and winter and I must say that there's not that big of a difference. Jeans is hip as usual, paired with some good old Vans sneakers (also a picture of the boat shoes included!) or some military boots of course. Put maybe you guys should try out some other fancy shmancy shoes? Anyways... I'll show you a few pieces of the next Superdry collection, which is very popular for boys when I look around. The lumberjack shirt doesn't seem to go away but don't get me wrong: I like it! And what I, personally, like on top of that is good old knitted sweater with those prints on the sleeves! But what else do boys need to be stylish in those cold winter days? That's right... scarves! You get yourself one boys because when you live in Belgium, you'll definitely need it.

Alice Avery
Hey guys! It's been a few days and it's kind of late right now but I wanted to give you guys something to read tomorrow (or now, haha). A few weeks ago I received an email with the question if I would want to style an upcoming Belgian talent in the music industry. Her name? Alice Avery! She participates in Hands Up For Fresh Talent, a contest where 3 bands or performers get the chance to perform at a huge festival here in Belgium. If they win, of course ;) I got to style the pretty Alice for her concert in Leuven. She chose two of my favorite outfits and she was going to wear one in the afternoon and one in the evening. Unfortunately the evening concert got cancelled and the one in the afternoon got moved from 12 to 2 o'clock. I couldn't be there to style her due to school. So I let her do the styling with the clothes I brought to Leuven. Here's the result!
 |
| In the H&M showroom deciding which outfits to take |
 |
| Earrings, top and shorts by H&M, boots by Alice |
 |
| Isabelle Lenfant bracelet, H&M shorts |
 |
| H&M shorts and bracelets |
It didn't exactly turn out like on the pictures and how I wanted it to be but that's maybe because I wasn't there myself. So sad she couldn't wear the leather shorts I gave her because I think that was my ultimate favorite outfit after all ^^ You can vote for Alice through this Facebook page!

Top 3 blog posts of April
Hey guys! It's been a while since I did a top 3 blog post thingy, but I was extremely busy. I still am actually, haha, but I thought I'd do this every first friday of the month since I don't have school that day. Isn't that nice of me :)? Well, here you go!
N°1: Mode Junkie - Stars and Stripes
 |
| Stars and Stripes |
Anjelica Lorenz is the beauty behind this blog and I absolutely love her! You may not know it yet but I have a certain connection to filipinos. My boyfriend is half and I've been to the beautiful islands in september. I knew Mode Junkie from way before and the fact that she's pinay made her blog so much more interesting to me. I can honestly say that I love it! I've seen so many of her outfits and I'm telling you: that girl can pull of any look! The reason I took this particular outfit was because it's really my style. I'd wear it the exact same way: shorts, shirt, wedges, hat and a pretty satchel. If only I had the same pretty stuff ^^ Didn't know her blog? Hurry up and check it out already ;)
N°2: Zarna's runway: so chaud
 |
| so chaud |
Some of my (American) readers may know this Bollywood beauty already. I discovered her last month and I thought she was quite pretty! It seems like I'm staying in the blogosphere with Asian roots but hey, I love Asia, can't help it ^-^ On Zarna's blog you can find a lot of different outfits such as this summery one but also very classy, very Bollywood or something with an edgy touch. Every garment suits her lovely sunkissed skin so well. Conclusion? I love it and I'm jealous, hihi ^^
N°3: This chick's got style - Take two
 |
| Take two |
I hope you all know Yara's blog? Well, I've been following it for quite a while now and her style has been pretty from the beginning. Very clean and simple but everytime she adds something special. In march it were some gorgeous orange Nelly shoes but since I'm doing a post about April's best posts I couldn't use them. Luckily for me (and for Yara too :p) she bought a second pair in black. I must say I'm more in love with the orange ones but damn, I love the details! Yara keeps on buying the prettiest shoes, I wish I could do the same, over and over again ^-^
