Topshop selection

A big reason why I tend to order on ASOS a lot and not so much on Topshop and the E.L.F. website has to do with their shipping costs... 5 pounds may not seem as much but if I buy at ASOS.com instead I can spend those extra 5 pounds on clothing or accessories instead ;) - easy choice! But when Topshop offers free delivery... MAN, I tend to spend hours on their website to make sure that I make use of it!

Until midnight Sunday the 29th of July Topshop.com offers free delivery worldwide!

La Dolce Vita

Arrived back - from sunny Bella Italia (Rome and Naples) with temperatures reaching 37 degrees Celsius - in dreary, rainy, cloudy Amsterdam with temperatures as low as 15 degrees Celsius.

Hello 20+ degrees difference...

Top: Zara | Maxiskirt: Zara | Bag: vintage | Sunglasses: H&M

Did I mention that Rome has a Zara flagship store? If you happen to be in Rome, be on the lookout for the four stories high Zara building on the Via del Corso. On the photo above you see me in my brandnew Zara coral maxiskirt... Also bought a load of Kiko stuff (so cheap!), another dress from Zara and a dress and ring from the Porta Portese market.. Good times!

MMM x HM

Hidihooooooooo!

It's been an awful long time - lots of things happened - won't bother you with the most of 'em, but I went to the amazing, beautiful, musical, uplifting, spiritual "Warm Heart of Africa" country of Malawi for work for one thing. I do not have words for this country besides A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Recommended to anyone who would like to travel in Africa but is not sure where to start. So with that out of the way:

GOOD NEWS BELOW

Mark November 15! The Maison Martin Margiela x H&M collection will be available in 230 stores worldwide and online!

I always get pretty excited whenever I hear about the new H&M designer collection, however, I also get pretty disappointed whenever I see the first press photos of the actual pieces... I am deeply hoping that this will not be the case this time. NOT with one of my favorite designer brands - NOT THIS TIME H&M.

Capice? Yes? Ok.

Will be leaving for Rome tomorrow in the early morning. They have a flagship Zara store you know... and also some very old buildings and statues apparently. Till next time!

The perfect parka

Zara did it again... and I fell for it off course. Ordered the amazing parka with the big pockets... 

Here a picture of Billie-Rose (love her blog and style! Make sure you check it out if you haven't already!) rocking exactly the same parka. Isn't it A-M-A-Z-I-N-G?

I have been completely obsessed about Zara's spring/summer collection...

It has been pretty quiet around here lately because I have been very busy at work because I will go to Malawi for a work visit coming Saturday and obviously I had to make a lot of arrangements for my visit. 

Very exciting - will be back after my visit!
