New In: Getting Spring/Summer Ready ❤

Since I got off of my internship a bit earlier today, I decided to do a (little?) shopping trip. I just get so excited seeing all of the colorful tank tops and short shorts. Makes me excited for summer and warm weather (hopefully?!?!).

I bought this neon pink Peplum skirt at Bershka. They had them in a nude pink color too. I feel now like I should have gotten both colors, since they fit perfectly!!

My H&M haul is a lil' bigger than from Bershka. In my opinion the clothing style of H&M has change so much, in a good way. I saw sooo many cute things I wanted, but unfortunately I had to keep my budget in my mind. 

I first saw these sneakers on H&M online and loved them instantly. I bought them today, but unfortunately they are (way) too big for me :( I don't know why though, because it's a size 36! They probably fit as 37/37.5. I hope I can return them. But if you're interested, send me an email at: cots.fashionblog@gmail.com. 

LOOOVE it!

Thought this tee was so funny, just had to buy it...

Lots of love for my new necklace and mirrored sunglasses!

 Gotta go back to H&M asap to get more goodies haha. What do you think of my buys?

Life: Beyoncé's "The Mrs. Carter Show" ❤

Last sunday I was lucky enough to experience Beyoncé's "The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour" concert! I got home voiceless and in awe (I still am)!!!!! It was soooo amazing. Beyoncé is one of the best performer, if not THE BEST, out there. And that night she proved why she's QUEEN BEY!!!

I can say 'I WAS HERE'!!!

This was my outfit of the night!

Leather Jacket - H&M; BLAZIN tee - LA SISTERS; Mint Leggings - H&M; Snakeskin Clutch - H&M; Holographic Sneakers - H&M

Check out my video below; this is the opening of the show!

I feel like 'going to a Beyoncé concert' should be on everyone's bucket list. So happy I get to cross that off on my mine! :D

I'm the new Stylist for TRUNK V! ❤

Trunk V is a cool online fashion store that only sells limited collections. They introduce fashion brands from places like Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, China and many more. Trunk V is the perfect place for any girl that's fashionable and wants to rock unique and trendy brands. As Trunk V discovers more fashionable yet unknown brands, the list of items you can find get more exclusive! Especially since Trunk V gets new items every 2 weeks!! Awesome, right?!

Last week I had a lovely meeting with the owner of Trunk V, Elaine Ching. We clicked so well and now I'm the new stylist of Trunk V. I will be creating fashionable outfits with different items of Trunk V, all for your inspiration!! For my two first outfits, I thought it would be a good idea to take the Queensday theme and get you ready! All Trunk V items will be linked for an easy click. 

The first outfit has a lot of blue and a tint of gold, brown and orange. I'm really loving the cheetah print jeans blouse from Trunk V. I combined the lovely orange shoe with the Trunk V coral gold cables necklace. 

The second outfit has no orange, but is still qualified for a Queensday outfit due to the Dutch flag colors; red, white and blue. The nice finishing touch for this outfit, is the Trunk V triple skull necklace.

You will definitely see more outfits passing by on this blog and their facebook soon. Because Trunk V has so much more cute items to love! If you can't wait for the next outfit(s), I suggest you check Trunk V out right now. And don't forget to like them on facebook.

My New Internship at Grand Marché ❤

Today I'm starting my first day as an intern at Grand Marché and I'm BEYOND excited! Grand Marché is a new retail concept store in the centrum of the Hague that combines fashion, coffee and delicious cupcakes & macarons.  They sell fashion brands like Aaiko, Silvian Heach, Fab, Mybrand and others. Grand Marché is a part of PINC Sale, which specializes in sample sales! Any fashionista in Holland might know about them.

Basically what I'll spend most of my internship doing is deal with clients, help set up a promotional plan, find new potential buyers, visual merchandising on the floor and in window stores, and some other fun stuff! For my own assignment, I'll also do a separate market research. The store literally opened about 3 weeks ago, so I'm super ecstatic to be a part of the development. 

Really looking forward to the next 15 weeks! :D

If you're (ever) in the Hague, you should definitely definitely check out Grand Marché. You might see me there, so come say hi! It's right across from V&D.

I Like: Rabbit Ears Hairbands ❤

Just bought these 7 cute rabbit ears Hairbands on Ebay! Can't wait to rock all of them this spring/summer, especially now that Holland is getting a litle sun.

On Its Way: Missguided Cross Leggings ❤

It really wasn't my intention to shop this month, but when Missguided announced they're having a sale....Well yeah, I gotta take a look. 

I found these amazing black cross panel leggings! Missguided's shipping is so fast, I'm sure they'll arrive just in time for me to wear them at the BEYONCE concert next week! :D

How do you like my leggings? See if you can score any sale item(s) here!

WANT: Diewilikhebben Aztec Wedges ❤

As soon as Diewilikhebben posted these shoes (and some others) on their facebook page yesterday, I was immediately sold. The wedge, the colors, the print... just perfect! Definitely an eye-catcher for summer! Now the crucial question is, which one to get? I'm crazy about both and can't choose,so I might have to get them both...who knows?!

You can find all the other new shoes (and pre-order them) on Diewilikhebben.com

Like always I create outfits to share my sense of style on how I would wear certain items. Tell me what you think.
