Dear bloggers. I know that I said that I would post 'Paris part 2' yesterday, but I simply forgot.. My apologies. Well these our some photos from our second day in Paris. (I went to Paris with one of my friends for about five days) We woke up rather late and decided that we would have a day full of shopping. So we went to 'Rue de Rivoli' where you have the stores that you have literally everywhere in Europe. Like Zara, Mango, HM etc. Then we went back to our hotel room to put our shopping bags away and w...
When I was in Brussels a few weeks ago, I saw all these funny names of restaurants, bars etc. and also some great "paintings" as I would like to call them, because it's more beautiful than just gravity.I took the "Chocoholic" one, because I do quite enjoy some chocolate and "Carpe Diem", because I really believe in that. For those who don't know what that means. Literally it means: "pluck the day" but it's a metaphor with the meaning to live your life to the full and to make most of each day. And I belie...
As I promised, here are the photos of my trip to Paris in the beginning of this month. These are the photos of my very first day in Paris. I have to say that I'm madly in love with Paris and that I thank my French teachers from the last five years to help me learn the language. Tomorrow part 2 will be posted.
ZARAI saved a while to buy some basic items, which I really needed. Such as a basic shirt, a black and a white blazer, good pair of trousers and a leather jacket. And I bought it all last week. I also went through my whole closet and put all the items away that I didn't wear anymore. So now I have a good view of what I have and what I still need/want. For example: a good pair of trainers. X
If you follow my instagram or something else, you may already know. I did it! I graduated! I was massively sick to my stomach the whole day to wait for the phone call to arrive with the news. So I went to the gym this morning to clear my head and to take my mind of the whole phone call thing. Then I took a long shower, just to kill time, had lunch with my sister and mother and then placed all the phones beside me and tried to watch a movie, just to kill time. Then the phone rang at 2.33 pm exactly, I wil...
Shirt/VOGUE, Trousers and Blazer/HM, Shoes/NewLookToday's the day that I get to know if I graduated YES or NO. I'm extremely nervous. Sick to my stomach.. I'll be sitting on the couch with my phone in my hand waiting for the phone call to arrive. So please, if you have any reason to call me, don't call me today. Because I'll stop breathing every time I hear a phone ring.
This actually isn't Brussels anymore, except for the photo above on the right and the photo of me taking a picture of the big balls of Brussels. It's Antwerp. After three days we had seen the city and wanted to do something else. So we went to Antwerp. It was a Sunday though, so we couldn't shop. But that doesn't take away the beauty of the city. It wasn't planned, but it was good. Creme Brulée, Chocolate mouse with whipped cream and Raspberry pudding
Good morning bloggers. Before I go on posting about my trip from the last week, I thought I'd post a 'NEW IN' post. I got this ring in Paris and I've been looking for a simple ring a long time and I couldn't find one not too expensive that I liked. Till the very last 30 minutes in Paris when I saw this shop. It was actually next to our hotel, but I hadn't noticed it with my stupid head.. There I found this ring, simple but not too simple.I'll start with posting photos from Paris in a few days. Enjoy your...
