My 2nd Home

As u might know, i'm Dutch and English too. Today I spent travelling to Holland (where i'll be for 3 weeks) spendinmg time with my family-Dad, little sister, Oma and dad's gf. MY sister's here too.
Gteting here was not too bad actually, my dad's flight to england was soo funny though, it was in true James Bond style. Long story.
But, a accoident form last Summer has been repeated-my luggage somehow fell of the luggage lorry and is left at Gatwick. Those baggage handlers must really be blind if they don't hear the lound thump of a zingy fushchia-pink suitcase hit the ground. 'might complain. So, my belongings and all my clothes are packed into that suitcase and until then, I have my hand-luggage and today's clothes. If i don't get those clothes back I will kill. On the plus side, my dad offered to buy me a whole new wardrobe in the meantime. But i still want those clothes back.

Oh and by the way, just so this has some form of 'retail tale'', I wnet to a H&M and found some very pretty, hawaiian flower hairclips in yellow. They were 2 for (this keyboard is Dutch so doesn't have pound signs) 2 pounds!

Have a great summer everyone, leave some news in the comments

BreathTaking Alexander Mcqueen Winter/Autumn 2006 Collection (I meant to post this draft ages ago)



I'm baffled and breathtaken by the new Alexander Mcqueen Autumn/Winter 2006 collection. I know it's way too early, but they were way too special to miss out.

Nipped in at the waist, luxurious Victorian chic, bold, dark, wintery colours like greys, browns, greens, with some tartan too! There are ruffles too-it's all about the elegant chic. There's a real ghotsly, magical vibe. So, I'll say no more, here are some of my favourite looks from the collection.



Don't forget to watch the video clip starring Kate Moss on the main page of his website, it's magical!

You know, you should be grateful, I'm sacrificing my homework for this post, so you better like it!
I just knew I had to do a post on swimwear because a) i need a new bikini and b) incase you are blind, IT'S SUMMER!!!!!!!! (Cue loud whoops and cheers from me)

I'm sifting through the internet, oh, it's such a hard life, trying to find something great. And look, I'm onto a few winners already!

I've got a NBW-it's Victoria's Secret. I can understand exactly why Ashlee Simpson has agreed to be the new face of the brand.

I love the ruffles on this bikini, and the peach colour is very pretty and unusual. $36, around £19.

Next is another one from VS. I adore this one, it looks so soft! It would look great in the colour in the pic or the mocha colour. Also $36.




La Redoute Summer Sale is now on, so go straight to their website-www.laredoute.co.uk.
I'v been looking at the discounted swimwear, and I've found a few things I'd like myself. This plain poppy-coloured bikini has a slightly padded halterneck triangle top, the bottoms are low rise and have bowtie-sides. It's part of a mix and match sleection so click on this link and click on the following pages.
The colour of the bikini shown isn't exactly right. £15.20




That's all for now. Have a great summer!

Paris Was Amazing. And I Found Zara.

I looooooooooooooved Paris-if you haven't been there, u just have to go. I'll post some pictures up soon. I went to Parc Asterix, Disney, a River Cruise on the Seine, saw the Wild West (Dinner)Show at Disney and shopped at Cite Europe.
Not bad for 3 days, huh?
While I was at Cite Europe (French shopping mall), I went to H&M and found a cute little, cropped brown waistcoat for just under £5! It would look great teamed with a pair of denim hotpants, so I wanna get some of them too. Then I went to Zara, where I found a cool red slogan t-shirt for just £6!

I love this Zara dress which I found on the website, if anyone can find (or knows) the price of it, pleaaaaaaaaaaaase let me know!

So that was my Paris shopping escapade. :)

Preparing For Paris!

I can't wait- I'm going to Paris in ONE DAY!!!!! It's a school trip. OOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhh, I think u can tell I'm excited, cos I am!!! I really am!
So i thought it would be really appropriate to have Parisian style on this post. Well, and some Disney too (I'm going to Disneyland Paris).

First of all, Tinkerebell is veeeeeerrrrrrrrrrry cute, and that little green dress is great! ;] Here is a pretty Tinkerbell necklace (£5), and also a pair of Tink earrings (also £5)! I love the earrings. Once again, Asos for both.


This belt is so chiq, it would not look out of place with a stylish outfit shopping in boutiques in Paris. I just hate the price. It's La Redoute, £35. Reminds me of Kate Moss actually. I'm in love with it.

Something that would look great with the belt is this hat, also La Redoute. Perfect for chilly evenings in the city. £7.50 But don't go all black-remember it's Summer!



This is all I can find right now and I have to pack my luggage! :D




If I went to Paris, the accessory I'd pack would be...
Tinkerbell Pendant
Tinkerbell Mismatch dangly earrings
stylish flat cap
chiq belt

Cute Little Summerdresses

Once again, I've found some great stuff on asos-As Seen On Screen (clothes etc) in the style of celebs. If you're visiting, click on Summer Offers and have a look. I'm sure you'll find some great things. I was hoping to find a pretty and cheap summerdress.


This red and white floral dress is extremely cute (and very short) but very summery. It's only £15!


I love this simple glam, swishy white halterneck. I think I'm gonna get it. It's been reduced to just £10. What a bargain! Apparently it's in the style of Jennifer Ellison, but I wouldn't exactly call her a style icon.

This next one is supposedly in the style of madonna, and I think it's qquite a cool dress. Good coverage, so no chance of ass exposal, another swishy one in red. £12.

And finally, I just had to leave this one till last, I just looooooooove it. But it's so short!!! You'd have to wear it over a bikini on the beach or as a loooong top over shorts. Enough talking-here it is. Rdeuced from £28 to £15. The thought that's going through my head-Will I/Won't I?



I've decided to start putting more polls in my posts, so let me know what you think, vote in the poll below!

And the Winner of 'Asos Cheap Best Dress 2006' goes to...
cute and summery, floral pattern red and white dress
swishy and glam, white halterneck dress
chic and unusual, patterned black and white halterneck dress
pretty in red, another swishy number
