Party Look

After all the busy Christmas days where you had to take care for everyone around you, it's now time to think about yourself. What are you going to wear for New Years Eve?!
You know you want to look smashing :-)

Instead of waiting until the day itself, I decided to create my ultimate party look some days before. Since I'm probably going to spend at least half of the evening/night outside, it definitely had to be something warm. That is why I went for this furry friend with a nice sweater dress underneath. To make a bit more festive, I picked a nice glittery hair accessory.

Of course I also like sparkling dresses and skirts, but you often have to wear them with stockings and I think it will be a bit too cold for that. So I decided upon a pair of trousers from Seven Sisters to complete my look. Apart from being really comfy, they also make it bearable to go outside in this weather without freezing my butt off!

I found my perfect party outfit at The Sting for less than €100. So if you are still looking for inspiration for your New Years look, go check out their website! xx

Gifts Week 3

Here some photos of the gifts I received during the third Advent week. I really like that I got completely different items every week.

Today we had our first snow here in Holland so I was glad that I had my new gloves. As you can see I also received an Asos sweater, three pencils, porcelain salt & pepper grenades, puzzle booklet, blanket and an owl. xx

Xmas Look

What I was wearing today on the First Day of Christmas. Yes I'm wearing lipstick!! (some of you might have seen that already on Instagram) I'm not a lipstick person at all, but hey for Christmas we all want to do something extra right?!

Hope you had a lovely day filled with joy, lots of food and quality time with friends and family! xx

Gifts Week 2

Hereby I present to you my gifts from the second week of our December advent ;-) Sorry for the delay, but I had some issues with my cameralens unfortunately. I really liked the items I got last week! Needed some new socks because my Clarks already destroyed many pairs.

Next to socks in three different colors I also got a nice knitted black beanie, white porcelain christmas tree, concrete house, coverstick, home magazine and a Brabantia grater. Thank you Mart! xx

Cannot leave the door without a large scarf and lucky me I got this new one last week. It's a nice checked scarf from New Look which has color on one side and black and white on the other. Any plans for the weekend? xx

New Reading Material

Bought some new reading material, always good! The first book is a book about HTML and CSS, during the holidays I will try to improve and rebuild my website (not looking forward to that).

Furthermore I bought Wreck this Journal for Mart, the perfect book for someone who is not really careful with books. This one is especially made to destroy and have fun while doing so. I also bought some novels because I really have to start reading again. Are you reading anything at the moment? xx

Advent Gifts First Week

Maybe you already read something about it on my Instagram (@heritagemode), we are celebrating advent this year. Instead of giving each other one larger gift at Christmas we decided to buy 31 presents for the other. Quite hard I have to admit, but I managed to find nice ones.

Here are the gifts I got during the first seven days! A nice porcelain rhino hook, Dille & Kamille oil bottle, America Today pyjama trousers, wooden wolf, Runners world cookbook, black vase and black H&M scarf. Happy with my gifts! xx

Pink coat and checked scarf

Another outfit post for you guys. Last weekend I went to visit an old acquaintance and while biking there we took these photos. It is getting colder and colder so I really had to dig up my mittens. This was also one of the first times that I could wear this thick woolen plaid scarf.

Any plans for the weekend? xx

Mens gift guide

Because it always turns out to be really difficult to buy Christmas gifts for men, I decided to create a mens gift guide for you.

But I approached it slightly different than usual. Instead of looking for nice stuff online I decided to search within the walls of our home to create a gift guide. I went through Mart's drawers, bags, closet, cabinet, etc. to find all those items that are - according to him - perfect to give.

So hereby I provide you with a table full with gift worthy items for men. From top to bottom, left to right: Analog camera, Sneakers - the complete guide book, One Piece cap, Another Escape magazine, bygitte cable loop, Scotch & Soda Barfly perfume, Sabon peeling, Toni&Guy sea-salt spray, L'oreal MEN Expert vita lift, Hema alarm, Victorinox Pocket knife, Flashlight, H&M tie, Beard book, Acne cap, Apple iPad mini, wooden ruler, HAY scissors, How to tie the knot print.
