Aarhus






Ph, Private

As I've mentioned before, I went Sunday to Aarhus for a quick shopping trip. Here some shots, the weather wasn't really great so the photos are a bit grayish. I love to shop all Scandinavian brands together in one city!

1. Beautiful ivy overgrown building.
2. As you can see our shopping trip succeeded. I bought a brown suede fringed gilet from Vila Luxe line, a burgundy silk blouse from Samsoe et Samsoe, a beige Acne parka, Acne jeans in a great in between denim tone, a grey sweater (from unbelievable soft material) from Won Hundred, a pair of silk shorts from Gestuz and a white blouse collar from COS. Mostly new fall-winter collection but the Acne parka and the suede Luxe gilet were on sale. You'll see the items properly on outfit pictures, coming soon.
3. A beautiful hotel at the square in the city center.
4. Our hotel room in the new Scandic Aarhus City hotel.
5. A street in Aarhus, love the graffiti painting in the back on a building.
6. You can find a lot of seagulls in Aarhus, because there is a huge port in Aarhus, really close to the center.
7. The front of out hotel, it has a really fancy design part on the right and a classic part on the left side.
8. Our bathroom in the Scandic Aarhus City hotel.
9. Coffee time!
10. Another view from Aarhus. This obviously is a big church, you can find it in the city center.

What are you looking at?
1. Like I told you guys before, at the beginning of this week I went to Brugge.
2. Time for some fresh light meals because of the unbearable heat last week. A couscous salad with radishes, onions, beans, feta, nut mix, lime and parsley.
3. The beautiful gables in Brugge, love those buildings.
4. Drinks in Brugge, with Roxanne who lives there for half a year.
5. Love old signs with old penmanship, the overly use of vowels in words looks funny.
6. The Scandic Aarhus City Hotel, where I am at this exact moment while writing my post. Mart and I decided to do a quick shoppingtrip in Aarhus, Denmark. So this morning at 05:00AM we left Arnhem and entered Aarhus at the end of the morning, parked the car in the parking garage and entered our beautiful hotel room. This is a new four star Scandinavian design hotel, which opened her doors in June this year, so it's open for two months now. Tonight we will find out if the beds are as comfy as they look.
7. Another fresh meal from last week. Chinese noodles with panga fillet, onion rings, garden peas, Asian herbs, citron, Thai sweet sour sauce. Just delicious!
8. The other side of the archway from the first photo in this post.

Maison Scotch Lookbook




Ph, Maison Scotch

I love this Fall Winter lookbook from Maison Scotch. What an amazing items, winter collections often are so much better than summer collections. That first denim piece/dress is amazing and the denim blouse at the end as well. I love the trousers and jeans with knee patches and zippers at the knees. That leather vest and black double zipped leather bag are just perfect. Ouch, my wallet hurts..

Brugge






Ph, Private

Some photos from my quick trip to Brugge. A friend of mine lives there for half a year, so we decided I would visit her for two days. It's a beautiful city with a lot of old buildings with the most amazing step gables. I took a sightseeing boat to see Brugge from its most beautiful sight. Loved the old churches, bridges and gardens. And we were lucky with the lovely sunny weather!

Asos Lookbook




Ph, Asos

I totally love this coming fall-winter collection from English webshop Asos. I'm totally digging for that top-trouser combination in darkblue with a subtle print and leather sleeves and details. The sweaters are great as well. I like all the print and fabric combinations in these looks. Well I guess we'll just have to wait till the collection hits the shop.

I'm back from Brugge. It was a quick but lovely trip. What a beautiful city, tomorrow I will share some photos with you guys. Hope you are enjoining the great weather!

What are you looking at?
1. Today's breakfast! I love muesli/cruesli mix with red fruits and a cranberry juice and coffee.
2. Water lilies in a nearby pond, love the layered green texture.
3. Another photo from this weeks 'Vermilion Jacket' post.
4. Hamburger sandwich with onion-rings, tomatoes, lettuce, some sauces and Parmesan cheese topping, served with potatoes. Lovely meal!
5. Poppies, in my grandmother's backyard. Still love the flowers even though their soft red leaves have fallen off.
6. I'm not sure what I exactly was doing, but I guess I made a sort of dance move. Well, at least my boyfriend captured that particular moment, looks like I thought I was doing something funny ;)

Next week supposes to bring good weather to the Netherlands, finally! This afternoon (so when you're reading this I'm on my way) I'm going to visit a friend in Brugge (Belgium) and I will be back on Tuesday. I'll schedule some posts to don't leave you guys empty handed! See you soon!

Wooden Bead Box



Ph, Private

I'm still changing the setting in my apartment and redesigning some parts! I've sorted out all my beads, as you can see, and put them in beautiful wooden boxes. I'm sometimes a bit of an autistic person, so I wanted everything clean and minimal and sorted it on color and material.

Open Arms Dress




Ph, Private

Dress: thrifted Joseph Ribkoff | Denim Vest: DIY | Shoes: Clark Originals | Leather bag: COS | Hat: Thrifted

What I was wearing today. My colleague Roosmarijn and I decided to wear something we like but never wear. You know you probably also have some dresses, jackets or tops which you totally adore but never know how to wear. She wore a glitter party dress full with sequins in different colors and also with shoulder-pads like mine. I wore a cut out dress with bare neckline and arms. I guess a new Monday tradition is born, called Magic Monday.

How do you like my photos, I've used another lens. I was searching for an extra lens for a while, I ended up getting the Canon 50mm F/1.4 USM (actually gifted by Mart as an early birthday gift). The next lens on my wishlist will be the 24-70mm  F/2.8 USM L.
