During one of the colder days this summer I was cleaning out my closet and ran into my momjeans, which you might have seen in some of my outfits from a while ago. I wore it together with my pink coat over here and with a long trench and pink top over here. Another outfit with the momjeans in a more chique version can be found here. Anyway, I thought it would be fun to wear the jeans together with a croptop from Primark and my leopard slip on sneakers from H&M. The jacket is new and is from the Primark autumn/winter 2015 season, it is still in stores right now! What do you think of this look? Hope you love it :)

Last week the temperatures went down just a little bit which made me grab for some skinnyjeans, a comfy tshirt and a blazer. Also, I was so pleased to be finally able to wear my cute chelsea ankleboots from Sacha. While I absolutely adore the summer and it's warm temperatures, I'm also really looking forward to the autumn so I can wear these pretty ankleboots more often. What do you think of the tshirt? Primark has so many cute and affordable (just 3 euros!) tshirts with amazing texts. I've got quite a few in my closet and the quality is fine as well.
I also recently became a member of Pauls Boutique style icon team and am pleased to show you my beautiful new bag: the Natasha in half suede/stone. It's such a fancy bag, beautiful detailing and perfect for everyday use. Please do let me know what you think of this bag. Hope you love this outfit just as much as I do :)

A little while ago I got myself a little present: these very cute knock off Valentino heels. A good pair of heels always cheer me up, which I think would go for most women, and they were so cheap! I got them in a local boutique in Zaandam, which is close to my hometown. To make the outfit a bit less girly I decided to wear my high waisted black pants from Zara in combination with my pink lace top, a great thriftstore find.

During one of my many days off (I'm flying parttime, woop woop!) the boy and I drove to the beach. We went to Katwijk, which is about an hour by car from Utrecht. During the summer holidays the beaches in The Netherlands can be really crowded, but Katwijk seems to be an exception to this rule, since it was really quiet. It was a super lovely day, we brought food and drinks and we had a super relaxing afternoon. I am wearing my favorite new sunglasses which are from Polette, a great sunglasses shop! Oh and my bracelets are D.I.Y. Hope you like the outfit :)

When I see feathers or a feather print, I'm in love. So when I went to Lofty Manner headquarters a few weeks ago I knew this beautiful blouse had to came home with me. Combined with my armygreen coat from Zara and faux leather shorts I was ready to hit the streets.
For those of you who have been visiting my blog for a while now (thank you so much for that!), might have noticed a slight color change when it comes to my hair. I recently added even more highlights to make it blonder. How much I loved my dark hair (which wasn't natural though), becoming grey (eeeks!) made me change it back to my more natural color (medium blonde). Being now a blondie makes me dying my hair less and also makes the few grey hairs less visible. Win win situation! :)

Usually I always have at least 1 item from the thriftstore in my outfit, but for today I have an entire thriftstore look! Last month I published my thriftstore shoplog and maybe you've already seen some of the items from this outfit in that specific shoplog. The kimono is one of my most recent buys and it looks great with the trousers and the top. The only 'new' items are my shoes from H&M and the bag from Primark. Don't you just love that bag? It looks really bohemian, I absolutely love it! We took the pictures close to our home in beautiful Utrecht, basically just around the corner. I love how all the trees are super green nowadays during the summer. I should definitely rent a boat soon, a great thing to do when you're in Utrecht! Have you already been to Utrecht?

Once a year the dutch Vogue magazine brings out a tshirt, which comes for free with their june issue. This is the third tshirt, the previous ones were white and grey and now there is this amazing black shirt, made from bio cotton. I always buy the june issue especially because of the tshirt which I love.
So for this outfit with the Vogue tshirt I decided to stick to a simple color scheme; black, white and burnt-orange. I'm wearing my favorite ebay midi skirt which I already wore here and here. It was so cheap and it's such a great addition to my closet! I'm also wearing my new Primark hat and my secondhand bag, which I found in the thriftstore. Hope you like the outfit :)

Who doesn't love summer days in the city center? This is Utrecht, my hometown where I live together with the boyfriend. It's such a beautiful city and just like Amsterdam, it has canals too! We love to wander around, shop a bit and discover new streets and corners. During this day it was quite busy in the city thanks to the bank holidays, so everyone is shopping. Thankfully we found a quiet area near the canal to shoot the outfit which is almost completely from H&M. I found most of the items in sale so the entire outfit is very affordable. Have you already found some cute items from the H&M sale?

After a few really warm days in The Netherlands it finally cooled down a little bit which made me able to wear this great new Primark outfit. The trousers have a vintage look and you wear them high waisted, I absolutely love it! The croptop and the coat are also both from Primark (autumn/winter 2015). I really love that the whole outfit looks a bit vintage and I adore the color combination. I wore my brogues from Zara which are a great combination with the rest of the outfit. I bought the entire outfit (except for the shoes, I own those for years) during a day in Middlesbrough, where I was thanks to my job as a stewardess. What do you think of this outfit? Do you like the new Primark collection for autumn and winter 2015?

I was so pleased with the beautiful summer weather in The Netherlands that I took tons of outfit pictures. I found this supercute dress in the thriftstore and it's originally from Primark. Since it was just 3 euros I had to take it home and thankfully it's perfect for the temperatures we have this summer (yay for 25+ degrees celcius!).
Thanks to the beautiful weather we came up with the idea for a nice picknick in Amelisweerd, a place close to Utrecht. I already wrote alot about Amelisweerd, you can find some of my posts here, here and here. We stopped somewhere on route to take some outfit pictures and to test out our new lens, the canon 18-135mm stm superzoom lens. I would love to hear your opinion about the photos (and the outfit ofcourse!)

Part of my everyday uniform while flying the skies of europe are a pair of tights. My airline's regulations are quite strict and we have to wear skin colored tights. I prefer mine to have a low denier, usually someting between 15 and 20. My new tights from Swedish Stockings are perfect for me and my job as a stewardess. I've got four pairs now and I absolutely love them. They are comfortable, beautiful and look great with my blue uniform. I'm wearing the elin-nude during work but personally I love the Stefanie-seam as well, which look really sexy underneath a pretty dress. Do you have to wear tights for your work? Any fellow FA's around here?

Welcome to my weekly diary of week 31. As you might have already noticed, I went back to blogging in English. Mainly because my daily pageviews dropped a little bit, while it was going so much better the previous months. Since most dutch people can understand and read enligsh very well, I decided to go back to blogging in english.
During this week I went to Geneva, Germany and the U.K. thanks to my job as a flight attendant, had some lovely dinners in Utrecht and did spend a lot of time inside the aircraft. I went out in Middlesbrough, took amazing pictures in Switzerland and my boyfriend bought some beautiful new bedding. I also went shopping in Germany and have some outfit photos from my layovers abroad. Hope you enjoy my weekly diary :)
Juli has been a great month with beautiful summer weather, high temperatures and lots of sunshine. I finally was able to wear short shorts and skirts, summer dresses and lightweight tanktops. I have 9(!) different outfits to show you from the month juli. Beneath every photo is the link to the outfit so you can find the details as well. Hope you enjoy it and please do let me know what you think :)
