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.

Report: H&M Exclusive Beauty Event in Utrecht ❤

Hello lovelies,

As a H&M Club member, I was one of the lucky ones to receive an invite to the H&M Exclusive Beauty event in Utrecht last Tuesday. I haven't been around in the blogging scene in a while, but I was very curious about the new beauty line and just the event in general. But unfortunately it didn't really go as I had hoped it would. H&M announced on the invite that the first 100 members in line would receive a surprise goodiebag. So with that in mind, SAS, her friend and I made sure we got there early. And we were, but to my opinion the organization was a total mess. There was no clear indication about the line until like 5 minutes prior to the event, so even though we were for sure one of the first 100's to arrive, we ended up getting in the store right after they ran out of goodiebags. Such a bummer!

After I got over the whole line and goodiebag situation, I was excited to encounter the new beauty products. And even that was kind of disappointing. The products were beautiful, sometimes a little overpriced, but I was hoping for a much nicer presentation. The products were set up in a normal store setting, so with 100+ attendees, that little corner got way too crowded to get a good look at the entire line. But luckily I still managed to get a couple of shots.

Quest for the Perfect Birthday Dress ❤

Hello lovelies,

Mid-August is when you start to realize that the summer days have flown by so so fast. Which also means that my birthday is just weeks away. That's just enough time for me the find the perfect birthday dress! And so the quest begins... I have been browsing around for some potential birthday dresses, but I can't seem to make up my mind just yet. Maybe you can help? I think white dresses are timeless and definitely suit the celebration I'm planning on having. But black dresses are a classic and I had to throw a couple of rose pink potential dresses in there too.

These are all so beautiful, I wish I could pick them all. But since birthdays only come once a year, I'd have to stick to just one selection. It'd be so nice if you can help me pick the perfect dress, by voting for your favorite(s) in the comments.

iPhone 6: 10 Cute and Girly Cases ❤

Hello lovelies,

It's been about a month now since I got my gold iPhone 6 and so far I'm loving it. The photo quality and battery life are just so much better than the iPhone 4s I had before and I'm just hoping it stays that way in the long run. Really the only disadvantage I can currently think of, is that there aren't many phone cases that are to my liking to choose from. And since I love switching up my phone's case whenever, I have gathered my favorite 10 just for you! Girly-ness guaranteed.
