New In: Antwerp Shopping Trip ❤

Yesterday I made a trip to Antwerp with one of my very good friends, to do a little bit of shopping. I was mostly excited to FI-NAL-LY visit the Forever21 store. As a true F21 lover, I am ashamed to say that it was my first time ever actually going into the store. But I loved it the minute I walked in! It took me such a long time to go through all three floors! As much as I wanted to buy the whole store, I had to remind myself I was a poor student and needed to stick with a budget. But I'm still really glad with my new items. 
Recently I have a bit of a fascination with crosses! I thought these golden, silver and black cross earstuds are so cute. You can't see it properly, but the sunglasses also have a little golden cross detailing going on. And the BRAT high knee socks..well they were just a must!
This skirt was already on my radar for a couple of weeks now and I almost forget about it, until I saw it hanging in the racks waiting for meeee.
These denim pants were just €7 and the plaid leggings were only €5. So yeah, I had too! And because plaid is really a trend I want to start wearing more this fall!
I have been wanting a washed out denim blouse for the longest and this one is purrrfect!!!
I also went to Bershka and as I was walking out, I saw this very funny quote tee and it just had to come home with me. Too hilarious!

I find Antwerp such a great city that I feel like planning a monthly shopping trip from now on lol.

Team Curacao Bloggers' First Anniversary ❤

Today is a special day for Team Curacao Bloggers. We're celebrating our very first anniversary! Precisely a year ago me and 11 other bloggers originated from Curacao came together to start Curacao's very own blogging community. Our mission was to "carve the fashion & beauty in Curacao". With satisfaction I can say that in our first year we have accomplished so much. We were invited to fashion/beauty events, we got recognition from some awesome businesses and we inspired a lot of new bloggers to join our community. I am so thankful for meeting all the bloggers and wish us so much more fun within the next years! TCB IS TAKING OVERRRRR!! ❤
Some of the awesome moments spend with the TCB bloggers

Featured: September Issue FASHIONISTA ❤

More than a month ago I sent an e-mail to one of my favorite Dutch fashion magazines called 'FASHIONISTA' for a spot on their next fashionpanel. They had sent me back an e-mail saying I was chosen for the September issue! I was still on vacation in the US when I got the mail and I remember being sooo excited! I was sent seven pictures of seven girls, all with a completely different look. I stated what I liked about the outfits, what I didn't like, what I would have personally changed about the look and what trend(s) I recognized. Surprisingly, it was actually a lot harder to give critique on the outfits.

Today I picked up the magazine and immediately looked for the page where my very first magazine feature was. Here's a compilation.
Since it was my first feature, I decided to pick up a few more (3!) Fashionista magazines lol.

New In: Prison Nly Shoes ❤

In my 'My Birthday Wishlist' blogpost previously this month, these babies were on the top of my wishlist! And now they're in my hands...well not literally but you know what I mean. A few days after posting my wishlist, I was seriously contemplating on getting them or not. At first I struggled deciding what color to get. And then I finally convinced myself that I needed the nude one, by saying they would look great with the outfit I had planned to wear on my birthday. If this shoe didn't have that golden metal, I don't even think I would have been this crazy about it. That metal just does it for me..
Just posted this picture on my instagram
I'm in looooove! They're so gorgeous. So happy I decided to get them and they arrived just one week before my birthday! :D

i Autumn Wear ❤

In our mind and hearts we want it to stay Summer forever, but unfortunately Fall is closer than we think! That's why I started looking for my new favorite fall items for this year. Today I'll show you (in complete outfits: from head to toe), what I'm loving so far. 

For some reason, there is a 'pineapple print' trend. And it's gotten pretty big too. At first I wasn't really a big fan, until I saw this ROMWE pullover. I paired them up with some black floral highwaisted trousers and a mint studded clutch. The white sandals, are shoes that I would have never picked out before.. but there is just something that I like about them now. For the second look, I picked out this very cool denim bomber jacket from Urban Stiletto. They are actually on sale right now for just €10, so ofcourse I had to get that! I also like these floral trousers, which are also on sale at Urban Stiletto and the #selfie tee from ModeMustHaves.
The third look is a lot edgier than the rest, but I don't like it any less. For this look I used the Trill tee from LASISTERS. I especially like the little faux leather detailing in the front, it makes it a lot less basic. I matched the tee with some black leather pants, golden jewelry and some washed out denim sneaker wedges. The grey cropped shirt in the last look is also from LASISTERS. I thought this shirt would look great with this cute skirt (it has sequins and beads at the front) from ModeMustHaves. For accessories I went with a green tassel necklace from Loavies and an ombre bag. Just like the white sandals in the first look, these gladiator sandals are also something I wouldn't have picked out normally... but ADORE now!

What do you think of my picked items and the total outfits?
