ootd: Happy Easter

1. Zara jacket  2. H&M mint top  3. Zara grey skirt  4. Nike janoski's

Happy easter everyone! Did you search for eastereggs? My easter was pretty quiet but it was good to have a lazy day off aside from some work that needs to be done. So for today's outfit I got these gem of a jacket out of the closet and wore them with my new janoski's. I like to wear sneakers with black tights it makes your outfit more 'street' and less girly.

Have a nice sunday.

Some kicks and boba galore

Yesterday was one of my rare day off, because of good friday. I decided to head out early to make full use out of it! So I met up with my friend, Roz, to the cinema in the morning. We went to see the Host, which was an 'okay' movie, better than Twilight definitely. The actrice was actually quite good. Only some unlogical 'it doesn't make any sense' and 'too cheesy to make it believable' scenes.

And then we went shopping. I finally bought new sneakers! I've been contemplating to buy these Nike janoski's but never got to try them on until yesterday, because it isn't available in regular sneakershops. I wanted to buy black suede with white nike logo on, but it wasn't in stock anymore.. I'm still planning to buy it though.

Next, we went to drink some boba, or bubble tea as they call it. It was a small shop/cafe where you can sit in front of the window and 'find wally'. Roz and I spent quite some time entertaining ourselves with Wally. If you haven't heard of the hype boba, you'd better find some because it's quite booming! It's a drink, usually tea with some fruit or milky flavour where they add tapioca balls (original) or some popping boba, balls which will pop in your mouth with some fruit liquid. 

If you live in the Netherlands and you want to try it out, there's a good one in Rotterdam called 'yoyo' and they sell froyo as well! (Now that here is my favorite snack) And if you want to drink boba while finding Wally, you can go to '8tea5' in the Hague. 

Anyways that's it for my little rambling and I wish you a happy easter in advance!

ootd: fancy pants

1. Zara beanie  2. H&M white blouse  3. H&M grey fancy pants

This is what I wore yesterday, I tried to upload it then but got some trouble with the internet.. I got these fancy pants from H&M the latest collection and the fabric is really nice. It has velvet patterns to it. To top it off, I wore a plain white blouse to keep the focus on my fancy pants. I didn't intend to buy these pants at first; I blame it on the bus for not showing up, making me walk to the station with shops passing by. Do you like the fancy pants outfit?

OOTD: dear face

1. Primark aztec jacket  2.Primark jean blouse  3. Primark grey soft skinny jeans  4. Nike blue blazer

Dear face, why do you like to be so difficult? Someone once asked me; "why do you look so angry when I see you passing by?" My standard answer is most probably; "That's my normal face."

I don't know whyy I have this face in my pictures but please don't think that I'm angry. It's just my normal face expression. Do you have the same thing?

Anyways, this is what I'm wearing right now, I just realized that I'm wearing almost all Primark..

Have a nice day!

New in: Ombre sweater

I saw this ombre sweater on sale when I was on my black high waisted skinny jean quest. I had to have it, because I am a sucker for ombre things.. still. And it's still very wearable with this so called 'spring' weather. The sweater was €17,- btw by the brand Springfield.

Have a good day!

ootd & food | Sunday church and food wahala

1. Mango leather jacket  2.Zara skirt  3. Pull and Bear shirt

So sunday is church day and this is the outfit that I wore.. for like a minute. Because I couldn't stand the cold! If you're living in the Netherlands, or somewhere near, you would know. What were you wearing in this cold?

After church I went to an annual 'festival' celebrated by Indonesian embassy called the 'Pasar Malam Indonesia'. It's basically a festival where you can eat the whole day long and no one will blame you.

Here's some quick shots of the festival.  I didn't managed to eat a whole lot but it still was yummy.

ootd | Student life

1.V&D scarf  2.H&M blazer jacket  3.Primark grey skinny jeans  4.Clarks desert boots

Being a full time student and having three deadlines a week (seriously..I'm not kidding) is forcing me to sleep late and wake up early. No time to look in your closet what to wear.. So a 'go to'-outfit is essential. And this is definitely one of mine. Just some skinny jean and clarks and you're ready to go.
(Sorry more 'styled' pictures coming soon, I just have to make my deadlines this week.)

ootd | Some bangs and patterns

I'm wearing my new Primark ethnic jacket. It's nice to have some pop of color in your outfit and this jacket has the perfect balance between masculinity and femininity. And how do you like my new do? I don't really have bangs, these are hairbang-clips. Because I'm too afraid to actually cut some bangs.. Some days I want it so badly and some other days I don't, so these are the perfect solution. But overall I'm so fed up with my current haircut. I'm thinking about cutting it medium length, like a long bob.. and ombre it. What do you think?

HAUL | Spontaneous Primark shopping

Today I went to a spontaneous shopping trip to Primark. I actually went there to buy some pants.. I got a whole lot more though! I can't wait to style them. The star blazer reminds me from an outfit Alexa Chung used to wear from the Chanel collection. I remembered me wanting to DIY it, I liked it so much, so I had to buy this. The photo doesn't do it justice though, the fabric is a flowy chiffon material which makes the quality better and that for 5euros! The etnic jacket is something I would buy in H&M for a much higher price. It is a nice jacket for spring/summer with some jean shorts. The two blouses were so 

versatile for whatever bottom you're wearing, I had to have them. The color of the light taupe blouse is really nice, eventhough on camera it looks more nude. To see more detailed photos of my haul, click below 

OOTD | Getting ready

1. H&M black dots top 2. H&M bordeaux wollen vest 3.Bershka black jeans 4. H&M velvet heels

You must think I regulary go to parties, being a student. But no that doesn't include me.. So sometimes I have the need to go out and yesterday I went to a friend's houseparty with a friend of mine. We got to meet new people and had a lot of fun. Definitely a party to remember! 

Anyways this is what I wore. I wanted to dress casually since it's just a houseparty, but to add a little glam to the look, I added some red lips and heels. (Okay, I just realized that I'm dressed all in H&M except for the Bershka jeans)

ootd & personal | Reunion

1. River Island blazer  2. Monki top 3. Zara necklace

Yesterday was a fun day. I get to sleep in (yaay) and in the evening I went out with my old classmates of my senior year of high school. I see some of them quite often and speak with them on a daily basis and others I haven't seen for three years. Which actually isn't that long of time, but seriously some people change fast! I've never been the tall one, but yesterday was really disturbingly uncool. I felt like a midget. An asian midget. Some of the guys grew so much! I guess that the boys still grew after high school, besides that Dutch boys tend to be tall. 

I didn't wear anything fancy, because we just arranged to have some dinner at an casual Italian place and have some drinks afterwards. I had some trouble with the autofocus of my camera, so I couldn't take a proper full outfit post. You can see my top half though.

Haul | Eenie mini miney moe

What's not to like about drawings and shopping hauls? I was thinking of a fun way of displaying my two new necklaces I got from my parents and I thought that this was an interesting way.

The necklaces are from Zara when they were in Madrid. I like the aztec vibe they have.

So what do you guys think of displaying hauls like these? Yay or nay?

Personal | Paris trip: day 2

Fjallraven Kanken bag, River Island jacket, H&M striped sweater, H&M wax pants, Pull&Bear studded loafers

The last day, we went to Sacre Coeur and the Montmatre. This was probably one of my favorite places in Paris. The atmosphere was so French, the buildings and the streets are lovely. Even the street art makes this place more charming. More pictures of the Sacre Coeur and Montmatre are shown below.

Shopping at the rue de rivoli

Paris, je'taime!

Hey guys, I'm back from Paris! It was one of the most memorable trips I've ever made. We did a lot of sightseeing and shopping.. mostly in supermarkets though. You can read a full report of day one in Paris down below.

Personal | Going to Paris

As you may have read in my previous post, I am finally going to Paris, in a few hours. I'm so excited to leave and just enjoy my weekend there. I'm going with a friend of mine, Roz, with a bustour straight from the Hague to Paris. We made use of a Groupon deal, which is 80 euros per person for 2 nights in a hotel with breakfast. Definitely a bargain! And we even get to tour with the bus through Paris. So I've been there a couple times with my parents, but I can't wait to enjoy Paris on my own.

Personal | 'VANDAAG' is the place to be

I just went to the most awesomest place in the Netherlands concerning food.. It's called 'VANDAAG' which means 'today' in English. It's an international buffet where there's all kinds of foods available! There is food of the Asian, Western, European culture. I'm so bummed out though that I didn't take more pictures of the amazing place. Just look at those lamps! the decor of the whole place was incredible.. and the fooood. There were so many good food and desserts. 

If you happen to live/stopping by in the Netherlands, you should definitely visit Utrecht.

HAUL | Fjallraven anytime

I'm so excited! I just received my Fjallraven Kanken bag in the post. And I'm so in love with it already. This is the 16 liter one in the color black. I initially wanted to buy the graphite one but those were sold out. I love this color though because of the washed out look of it.

I'm heading to see the beautiful city Paris this weekend, so I can't wait to wear this!
