My holiday buys! Accessoires


I was looking for some thights, polkadot ones actually. But I thought paying €8 at H&M was a little pricey. Then I saw these at Primark, and I actually think I love these more. They are black in front, and in the back they are polkadot!! How amazing is that? It's kinda like the fun and cheap version of Chanel two-colour thights! I like things that are crazy, and these are genius! I hope I can manage keeping them in one piece for a while!


So I couldn't really get my leg in the right position to take a good picture of my new boots. It now looks like I have legs the size of a century old three, but that's ok. I had been on the search for winter boots, since I descovered my love for boots last winter (it was SOOOOO cold). I never loved them before, so it was an epiphany how many nice boots there are (and how expensive they are!). Thing is: I'm picky! If one little thing of the shoe isn't right, it's not coming home with me. But these beauties.. I fell in love. They are almost knee high, beige, suede, AND high heeled. I CANNOT wait to wear them. For a better look, look at my other holiday buys post, I wear them in the first picture. I also bought a bag in nearly the same colour :)


I'm extremely picky when it comes to bags. I just am. Probably even pickier than with shoes. I needed a good handbag, that I could take to school, and to sleepovers with my BF. My old turqoise one is falling apart, and I feel bad wearing it down even more. This bag.. it's so pretty. The colours are the same as in the picture, and it's so close to the colour of my boots it's amazing. The gold, the details, the chiqueness but simplicity, I liked it. Also that it has two ways to carry it, is really practical. The only negative point was that it can't carry my laptop, for that it's too small, but all my school supplies fit it, so that's a plus :). It's from Primark again.


The details


Last summer I had to say goodbye to some black flats. So I had been on the search for a pair of plain black flats to wear with anything. And they had to be cheap too, because I don't feel like spending fifteen euro on a pair of plain flats. When I stumbled upon these, I couldn't resist. Even though they are a tad bit small, they were only €2, so I had to bring them home with me. They're from Primark.


If there's one particular kind of earrings I like, it has to be pearls. Somehow they bring out a certain beauty in my face which I can't quite explain. Maybe it's because my skin is pretty fair, and I'm blonde with blue eyes. I just think they look good. About the other two pairs of earrings: The left ones remember me of my aunt. She always used to wear blouses like the one I just bought, and used to wear earrings like these. I thought that was so.. professional. So I'm kinda going for that look too, as I like to play dress up. The other ones remind me of some great bling earrings I used to have. They are a lot like these only square. I used to wear those eeeeeeeeeevery day and they looked so good on me, untill my sister wore them and lost one of them. I was devastated really. These are a good replacement :). H&M.

Ps. I also bought a black and white sportsbra at Primark, but I figured that didn't need documenting ;)

So the lady went shopping at Primark

With her daddy, last monday. Because the first thing a shopaholic does when her internship has ended is... shopping!

Just a little background info. Primark is an English gigantic chain of stores, like the H&M. Only cheaper, and usually of worse quality too. But that's fine.

In The Netherlands the only Primark we have is in Rotterdam. Since I'd heard incredibly happy stories from other fashionista's who'd been there, I just HAD to go and see for myself.

So me and my daddy went by train. I have three comments: With it's two floors it's actually smaller than expected (I thought there'd be four), the clothes were not my style at all (and H&M priced too, so then I'd rather go to H&M), but the shoes and accessoires were really cheap and really awesome. Totally my style!

Let's start with showing what I've bought.


The coolest biggest sunglasses ever. And they are so summer-ly. Pink, yellow, orange. It's all there! And most importantly, I've got to wear them!!!!!! It's spring in Holland! My prayers have been answerred!


Since my old fake All Stars are slowly dying, I bought these. These are rock 'n roll. With fake snakeskin and all. I'm not a sneaker fan, but when I actually WEAR flat shoes, I want to look fabulous. I think I'll manage with these.


Before spring started I made a list of things I wanted to invest on this spring/summer. One of them was cute sandals/flipflop-thingies. These were sooo cheap, and so adorable, I just had to have them. The fact that they're silver makes it all the more easy to combine them.


Yes. I wear hats. Why? They rock. I have an hat-head. Try saying that fifty times very fast :-)



And one of the other things I wanted to invest in were wedges. I've fallen in love with something I used to HATE... the marine look. These fit the bill, they're comfortable to walk in (hence: only one big heel), and the look awesome. Great for summer!



So this sounds crazy for most of you three readers I bet. These are the shoes I've always wanted. I just never knew they excisted. I really didn't. I've always dreamt about owning shoes exactly like these! Crazy right? And funny, they were the last in my size too! They were totally shoved away on the back of the shelve.. I'm in love with them.


I love this necklace. It's big, but classy. And will look amazingly awesome on tanned skin, and a bikini, or low cut dress.


Allright, so I know what you think: this is SIMPLE. I know. But two things: It's cute, and it's loooooong. This necklace will look fabulous on a maxidress.


The above necklace HAD to be bought together with these earrings. Otherwise, I would have never bought them. I don't like them really. I'll definitly try them, and maybe my opinion will change, but for now I'm not into them.


I love these earrings for two reasons: 1. They were ridiculously cheap, 2. They look fabulous. The weaven-structure I love. Makes me feel like an indian. And it will look fabulous with blonde hair and a long dress.

Hmmmmm... can't wait for summer! Now I'm off voting and to the hairdresser. Let's hope I won't have to wait forever. And then work, at 6 PM (that's 18:00 right?). I love my life :)

XOXO
