Blogger Battle: followfashion.nl

This month I will compete in a Blogger Battle. The battle is between me and two other bloggers. This week we got a theme and that is: Sporty Chic.

You can see the battle, follow and VOTE for me (here) ..

The them that was given was: Sporty Chic. When I heard this was the theme I was very excited, because this is exactly how I would describe my own fashion-style. For the sporty side of this look I chose to wear this grey/black sweatpants from H&M (here) , it has a sporty look but you can go many ways with this pants; wear it with biker boots, loafers, sneakers or, as I did, these two toned pumps (here). The top available at (stradivarius.com)  is a top that is wearable in many ways (crop, off-shoulder etc)  wanted to wear it with this half leather jacket. As some of you here know: my motto is: " Wear black, all day, everyday" which means I don't like to wear a lot of colors, but I do put on ' the extra' with colorful accessorizes and/or shoes. Just like this clutch. (here).

The geometric shapes (necklace, earrings ans shoes) were chosen on purpose.

- When you wear to much jewelry (in this case) I think it's gets 'too much'. So  I went for 'Less is more'. And finally, my hair: Messy curls. speaks for itself: curls got something neat but also something messy/ sporty! 

What do you think of this outfit?

I really hope you like my outfit enough and vote for me in the battle :)!

Forever 21 purchases

So I went to London for a couple of days. And every time I go abroad, I have to visit a Forever21. Unfortunately Holland does not have one so we're only able to shop online. Here are some of my purchases.

I already had my eye on  this crop (online) a couple of weeks ago, but it wasn't available in my size, so when I saw it in the store I had to buy it right away! 

I thought this sweater (available here ) was too cute. I saw something similar at a designer store a couple of weeks ago but then saw the price tag (I'm not going to spend thousands of euros on a sweater! - and even if I wanted, I couldn't) Anyway, it is really warm but kind of heavy ;) wore it:

Black & white trend

I saw it on the different runway shows again: the new trend for spring 2014 is Black & white. 

This a trend we see every year. But the style and outfits get renewed every season. The combinations that are possible with this trend are endless. But the trick is to wear it the way you like the most and add a finishing touch of 'right-from-the-runway-high-fashion'. Just get the basics in your wardrobe such as a leather jacket, a leather pants, a blazer or just a basic black or white shirt. Dont add to much accessorizes and then at something like stripes, floral prints or polka dots. 

Below my B&W favourites for the new season.

1. Sweater: Malene Birger 2. Bag: DKNY 3. dress: Topshop 4. Booties: River Island 6.dress: L.K. Benett
