Bling It Up With Dylanlex

November 22. 2015

Happy Sunday

The holidays are close everyone and I am already checking out the latest fashion and jewellery styles appropriate for that time of year when everyone seems to want to bling it up big time. Founded by Drew Ginsburg, hot NYC based jewellery brand Dylanlex came out with some incredible new designs that are totally drool worthy.

 As you can clearly see Dylanlex pieces are just too fabulous for their own good and with die hard fans ranging from Rihanna, Kendal Jenner, Madonna and Lady Gaga you know you are onto something special when it comes down to covering yourself with edgy-modern yet luxurious jewellery. All pieces are handcrafted with care and precision. "Less is more"" is not really Dylanlex's cup of tea instead "more is more" is what this IT-brand is all about. Of course you can still keep it simple by wearing a spectacular piece with just a white tee paired with your favorite jeans or you can go crazy by stacking your favorite rings and arm pieces on an all black outfit. 

Which ones are your favorite?

On The Go With The Mazda CX-5 SUV

November 9, 2015

Let's talk being mobile everyone. Me and the hubs have been on the lookout for a cool SUV to start of 2016. Soon our eye fell on the slick Mazda CX-5. which comes with a purse-friendly price tag that left us both impressed. One review wrote: "It's easy to see why the 2015 Mazda CX-5 is one of the best-rated crossover wagons on the moment. The CX-5 is stocked with plenty of features, has excellent handling, and is sized to suit a wide range of families and single drivers. It's also one of the safest vehicles in its segment, and has in my opinion the perfect combination of SUV utility and sport-wagon charms" Curiosity grew by the minute, so it was time to test this slick Rick

SKYACTIVE TECHNOLOGY insures for a impressive driving experience with a superb fuel economy and CO2 emission figures. The Mazda CX-5 is roomy, which we love with a sleek and comfortable "KODO – Soul of Motion" interior that made us want to never exit this beauty. Excellent from casual city driving to long cruises across country. Plenty of space in the back seat to cruise around with friends, yet handsome enough to escort your business associates. Pick a favorite color? Our choice will have to be a chic jet black, which of course would compliment any type of outfit I am wearing for the day. We love! Btw this post was not in collaboration with Mazda, so this is truly my pick when it comes to choosing a new vehicle for 2016.

What's your favorite ride at the moment?

Casual in Leiden City

November 5, 2015

Location: Leiden, The Netherlands

Last Sunday me and Emiel spent the day in the city of Leiden which is a small town half an hour south of Amsterdam. This little town is very cute and romantic and it was the perfect spot to celebrate our anniversary, something we do every month, instead of only once a year like most couples.  We were also celebrating the fact we made a big plunge by finally moving in together which has been so much fun. I love coming home so much, knowing he is always there.  We shot these photos in a rush just before sunset and enjoyed the most amazing Greek food afterwards.

   
Wearing a summer dress in the fall is definitely possible when you layer your look with fall pieces, like the khaki jacket and printed scarf I am wearing. Add a pair of fringed ankle boots for a trendy twist which I grabbed at Zara a few weeks ago. Although I do like the fall, I think it's a shame to let my favorite summer pieces go. So I keep finding ways to still wear them by adding a sweater or cardigan. The scarf I am wearing belongs to Emiel which he received in Afghanistan when he served the army a few years ago. He has retired from the army ever since, but this scarf reminds me of how proud I am of him for his bravery and courage. On top of that the scarf is just so freaking cool and totally dressed down this outfit for a casual and relaxed look don't you think?

The Vanity of Fashion Bloggers - 7 Misconceptions

October 29, 2015

In the three years I have been blogging, I have heard all kinds of remarks of what fashion bloggers are supposed to be like. Some are positive, while some can be quite negative. Of course I understand that this comes with the territory. I mean we slam photo's of ourselves all over the Internet like there is no tomorrow. Not once or twice, but everyday, all day. I get the fact that some people will get the wrong message here. "Narcissistic wanna be models", "self absorbed attention seekers" are one of those not so nice remarks about fashion bloggers, Does it really look that bad what we do is the question here?

Outfit - Fringe And Plaid

October 27, 2015

Hey everyone

The fringe obsession is here to stay! I know that we have been seeing this trend way too much for the past few months, but it still remains one of my favorites. In my opinion anything fringe instantly adds that extra "oomph" to even the most casual outfits. To me it looks flirty and playful and that is just what I wanted this outfit to look like, plus the distressed jeans and burgundy hat give this look a total rock and roll vibe. Don't you think?

Outfit - Knits and Crochet

October 19, 2015

Hey everyone

  

One thing I regret about the fall is the fact I don't get to wear my summer dresses for a while. Of course there are solutions for everything right?  Throw a knitted sweater over your favorite summer dress and pair them with a pair of OTK boots and you are good to go for the fall season. When it is not too cold yet, this look is totally fine with bare legs. If you prefer it, you can wear some sheer nylons as well. I love mixing different textures to make an outfit appear more interesting. As you can see here I mixed suede, knits and crochet and kept everything in muted colors to make it all come together. I love how Emiel came up with adding the fringe scarf. Still to this day he surprises me with his fresh ideas and clear eye for detail.This blog wouldn't be what it is right now without him. 

 When it comes to styling your outfit, don't be afraid to think a little out of the box. Try new things and have fun with your outfit by adding prints and textures you never thought possible. You might surprise yourself right?

Outfit - The Cutest Bomber

October 15, 2015

Location Amsterdam

Hey everyone 

The weather is quickly cooling off here in Amsterdam and what is better then to wear my favorite fall colors. Khaki green has got to be one of my favorite fall colors for sure. For instance I scored this cute bomber jacket while shopping at Bershka a few weeks ago. What I liked about it the most is the broad rim at the bottom, therefor really accentuating the waistline. I think most bomber jackets look bulky on me, but this piece has got to be one of those exceptions.

I paired it with a simple tee and black jeans and added these fabulous faux snakeskin ankle boots, that I can't seem to take my eyes off. These showstoppers just have to be one of my favorite pairs at the moment and I can't wait to rock them with more outfits. I have a feeling they would look great with a leather or buttoned up suede skirt or even edgify a dressy outfit like suit pants and a blazer. The possibilities are endless with this pair. What do you think?

Outfit - Button Up Plaid

October 8, 2015

Location: Amsterdam

Hey everyone

Today's look contains a few of my fall favorites. Think a Panama hat in a chocolate brown shade, a mustard colored plaid shirt dress and a sexy shade of red crossover bag to add color to it all. What can I say the fall season is not a reason for me to stop wearing hints of color.
 

What do you all think?
