Fall 2015 Fashion: Grey is the New Black ❤

Grey is such a versatile color when it comes to fashion. I was really into it this past summer, but I love it even more this time of year. It's simplistic, oozes sophistication and is basically the new black in my eyes. I've gathered a few grey items, that I would love to add to my fall wardrobe. I'm especially loving how there are tons of shades to choose from.

The first top items include some everyday platform boots, a cozy "Not your Bae" sweater, a very pretty metallic top and a grid check duster. This duster coat is perfect for days you feel like layering. The four bottom items are a nice bouclé oversized coat, a casual rib knit pencil skirt and a fancier metallic pencil skirt, as well as some really fashionable ankle pointed stiletto boot. 

I like the look of this bouclé cardigan and the knit roll neck crop jumper seems like it can keep you really warm, despite it being cropped. And nothing screams fall more than a wool hat, am I right? I also really like this faux fur satchel and plunge ruched knitted dress. As well as the light grey nail polish & dark grey nail polish from H&M. 

How do you feel about wearing grey in the fall of winter season? Which of these items would you like to add to your wardrobe as well?

Missguided Sale Wishlist for Fall 2015 ❤

Hello lovelies,

Due to lack of sleep last night, I decided to browse around in the Sale section of Missguided. You know, just for fun. Big mistake, because I had to refrain myself from placing an order. Especially because I didn't need to buy anymore summer clothing for now. But in the midst of all the short summer dresses and crop tops, I've also stumbled upon some items that can easily be transitioned into appropriate outfit pieces for the the colder season. Here's my wishlist.. 

Faux Suede Heeled Sandals | Zip Front Wide Leg Trousers | Oversized Cocoon Check Coat

I have been so obsessed with the rose and mauve pink color lately. But let's be honest, when have I not loved pink? Perhaps it might not be a typical fall color to others, but fashion rules are meant to be broken.

Striped Wide Leg Trousers | Grid Check Wide Leg Trousers

Wide leg trousers are so easy to wear in the fall season: just throw on some heeled boots and a floppy hat, and you've got yourself an effortless fall outfit.

 Gladiator Heeled Sandals | Faux Fur Cropped Leopard Coat

When it's cold outside, comfort is key. But I figured these heeled sandals can be rocked for somewhat fancier occasions, preferably held inside. However, I don't think this faux fur leopard coat needs any justification. 

What's your favorite transitioning piece for fall?

Hello lovelies,

Fall/Autumn 2015 Fashion Inspiration ❤

Hello lovelies,

Fall is just a week away, but I'm guessing the Dutch weather didn't really get that memo. Because it's been chilly, rainy and grey for a few days now. So no proper goodbye to the summer, I'm afraid. To help me and you both get into the right autumn vibe, I've been collecting some fashion inspiration online to help with my wardrobe transition. 

Fall Shopping Guide #2: LBD, Hats & Denim Jackets ❤

Heey lovies,

I am back with another Fall Shopping Guide today, since the reactions to the first one was very positive! I love roaming through some of my most visited online shops to pick out the cutest essentials. 

The little black dress is such a timeless item, so ofcourse it was going to make this list! I particularly love the first two ones below, but all four are totally fall-appropriate.

PU dress - Zippered & Cropped dress - Sleeveless Mesh Bodycon dress - Collar Knitted dress

I think my favorite must-have accessory for this season are headwear and hats in particular. Hats are just so much fun to play around with as they can dress your look up or tone it down if that's the look you're going for that day. 

Oversized fedora hat - Two-Tone Chain fedora hat - Leather Brim fedora hat, Wool Floppy hat

I'm aware I've already covered outerwear in my previous shopping guide, but I thought denim jackets needed their own category, because why not...

Boyfriend Bomber denim jacket - Hooded Drawstring denim jacket - Batwing Crop denim jacket

 Which of these essentials are your favorite? Would love to know.

Fall Shopping Guide #1: Boots, Outerwear & Sweaters ❤

Heey lovelies,

It's the first of October which means we really have to start getting used to the colder and darker weather. It's now officially time to trade my summer wardrobe for sweaters, scarves and comfy socks. So for my first Fall Shopping Guide, I'm giving you a few of my favorite fall essentials that are both comfortable and trendy. Hope you enjoy reading!

Of course heeled boot(ies) are going to be the first thing on my essentials' list. Even if the rest of your outfit is so effortless, with these selection of heeled shoes you can instantly look more stylish. Honestly, Public Desire has really stepped up its game with their new fall boots.

black ankle boots - grey ankle boots - blue ankle boots - bordeaux ankle boots - black ankle boots

No fall wardrobe is complete without (a few) comfy coats. Here in the Netherlands I try to reserve my thickest coats for the winter, so I always like looking for new fashionable fall coats and jackets that aren't too chunky but can still keep me warm.

mint coat - white coat - black vest waistcoat - red plaid coat - grey collarless coat - purple coat

I most definitely think the most worn item during the fall time are sweaters. They're just so easy to style, comfy and there are literally a million types of sweaters. Personally I like the cute and girly ones, like these three below. Pair them with casual denim jeans, cool sneakers and throw on a few accessories and voilà. 

grey asymmetric heart knitted jumper - eye embroidered pink jumper - grey hem pullover

What are some of your fall essentials? Definitely stay tuned for my second Fall Shopping Guide!

But what I am excited for this new season are the many shoes collection that are (coming) out right now. I love me some happy feet, so you know I gotta have my wishlist ready! 

wine lace-up buckled combat boots | black lace-up buckled combat boots | tan heeled platform ankle boots | black chunky sole boots 

You can't ever go wrong with boots in the fall, I mean the whole reason this season even exists is for you to wear boots lol. They are definitely my go-to shoes for school or just a day of fun! 

patent platform heels | pink pu platform heels | white platform buckle heels | white cut-out cleated sole heels | holographic buckle heels

In love love love with the cleated sole trend lately ( I have one coming my way very soon ^_^ ), so they definitely made it onto my wishlist this time! 

patent multi buckle ankle boots | white cut-out biker ankle boots | gladiator buckle sandals 

I love cut-outs for fall because the weather is not too cold outside to wear these. And for chilly days & nights, it's the perfect shoe to show off your frilly socks. Or do it like me and rock some awesome fishnet socks! 

What's on your shoes wishlist for this season?!

My H&M Wishlist ❤

I haven't shopped at H&M for a while now, but today I just felt like browsing around  a little online. I'm usually more fond of their summer collection than their f/w collection, but I found a few items I wouldn't mind adding to my wardrobe. Have a look...

 What do you think of my wishlist? And which H&M item is on yours?

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?

Fall Musthave: Pleated Leather Skirt ❤

One specific item I have been seeing all over fashion blogs lately, are the Pleated Leather Skirts. And I love it! I also love the outfits I've seen this skirt paired up with. Can't wait to get myself one. They make the perfect skirt to wear for fall. 

I found this very cute black "Waist Banding Faux Leather" Pleated Skirt from Storets, a new online store I recently discovered and totally love. Ps. Free shipping to the Netherlands. This skirt was also featured on The Blonde Salad and Ring My Bell. 

To give you an idea of how I would style this skirt, I made a few outfits on Polyvore as usual.

Do you like the Pleated Leather Skirt?
