Favorite outfits of 2015

So yeah, 2015 has passed. The first month of 2016 has passed. But I still wanted to post this post. It's fun to look back. So even though we're already living in 2016, I'm gonna look back on my outfits of 2015. Of course I was slacking on the blogging department, so I don't have outfits from the whole year. But you'll see I have plenty to show anyway. Also 2015 was the first year I showed my face with outfit pictures. I don't regret it, well sometimes if I have a horrible hairday. Even though I'm no model, I do think the pictures look better with my face on it. Be careful, 'cause here comes the pic scam!

Shoplog

Crazy right? Shopping with this weather? It's around 30 degrees, which is insanely hot for the Netherlands. So flowy dresses, skirts, shorts and summery tops are everywhere. And even then you're still sweating. I needed some basic tops to go with summer shorts. I bought this white basic top at C & A for € 4,50.

Bershka summer lookbook 2015

Today is the day summer officially started. I don't know how the weather is in other countries, but the spring in the Netherlands has been absolutely horrible. So why not show a sunny lookbook from Bershka filled with summer clothes? It's a very small lookbook, but I wanted to show you either way.

Wedges ready for the beach

I'm still looking for sandals or wedges which really ooze summer. Sandals by definition do, but wedges don't always look like summer shoes. I used to have wedges from jute with straps and those shoes were so cute. They also didn't last long because the jute was made from the worst material. Still, I would love to own a similar pair like those wedges.

Mango summer 2015 lookbook

The last summer lookbook from Mango showed pretty much white items only, but this lookbook shows a little bit more color. Still not a lot though. The collection mostly exists out of brown items, other earth colors and white.

Summer jumpsuits

I already own a jumpsuit, but I really want another jumpsuit. It's also known as a romper. I found some really cute ones at H & M and also for a really affordable price. They're only € 14,99!

Violeta summer lookbook 2015

I often really like the Violeta (plus-size collection) lookbooks from Mango, sometimes even more than the regular lookbooks. This is the summer lookbook from the Violeta collection. The lookbook shows lots of blue colors, stripes, a kimono and just really nice items.

Bohemian Fever with Imaan Hammam

Bohemian and the 70s trends are still going strong, so you might as well call a collection Bohemian Fever. And that's what H & M did. Dutch model Imaan Hammam is the face of this collection which is available online and in stores. The collection shows clothes which are very suited for the beach, which is something H & M thought as well. Hence the photoshoot on the beach. Can I just say (write) that I would love to visit these beaches. They also pick out the most wonderful locations for photoshoots. Enough about my rambling, here are the pictures.

C & A spring/summer dresses

My sister got married last year and I searched for a wonderful 'bridesmaid' (my sister didn't have bridesmaids, but it's easier to write this). I searched everywhere and luckily readers pitched in as well with suggestions for places with cute dresses. But then I suddenly found one at C & A. It was a cute floral summery dress with a pettycoat (I love those!) and it was € 59,90. Reasonably priced for a special occasion dress (though I feel like wearing it in summer whenever I want). And this year they again have special occasion dresses for a great price.

Shoplog

I went to Almere today because I went there for business. I can now officially say I just founded my own company. I'm gonna write texts for company's and of course I'm gonna keep on blogging. And I hope my blog will help with getting writing jobs. I want to continue with writing about affordable fashion brands. Because I love affordable fashion brands since I'm not exactly rich. And I'm guessing most of my readers (and blog readers in general) aren't either.

Perfect summer boots

It was my sisters birthday and I got new boots. Because my package from H & M came in! Remember these white boots I ordered? They came in and they're super cute. And I'm happy to say, they also fit! That's always nice, lol.

Mango Fashion Show Spring/Summer 2015

We already saw the lookbook from the Mango spring and summer 2015 collection. The lookbook showed a lot of items in the 70's style. A lot of flowy, wide items and a lot of polkadot. The collection was mostly white, not a lot of color. Yesterday was the fashion show where the spring and summer 2015 collection from Mango was presented on the runway.

C & A spring and summer collection 2015

It's no secret I like to buy a lot at C & A. Over the last few years there has been a lot of cool stuff in their collection. And this new spring and summer collection looks promising as well. The collection shows a lot of denim and also some more bohemian items. All these spring and summer lookbooks make me crave spring and summer!

Best outfits of 2014

It was so hard to make a choice in my best outfits of 2014. I already knew this after the first week of 2014. A top 15 wasn't possible because I simply couldn't chose only 15 outfits. I did make a selection 'cause I'm not showing all my favorite outfits. Nevertheless, looking back, I don't like all of my outfits this year. Some failed, some were basic and while I love basic, I don't like those outfits for this post. 

 Week 1

River Island summer lookbook 2015

I wrote about the new Mango spring/summer collection lookbook this week and now it's time for another summer lookbook. This lookbook is from River Island and as I said shows the summer collection from 2015. Yes, summer. Which we won't be seeing any time soon. But lookbooks are always nice to look at. I think based on the lookbooks from Mango and this one from River Island the spring and summer collections will showcase a lot of items with fringes, flared jeans, bohemian (prints) and long flowy dresses. You see a lot of items from the '60s, '70s and a little bit from the '80s.

Oh summer, where art thou?

I warned myself a few months again during the summer, when it was so warm you couldn't do anything, I would gonna miss summer. It was so crazy hot back then that I longed for some other temperatures. I didn't want winter either. I don't mind wearing cozy sweaters and fluffy vests, but when I go outside it's so cold. Too cold. So I'm longing for summer. Just not the crazy hot temperatures either. To remind myself of nicer temperatures, I collected my favorite summer outfits. I wore some outfits when it was really warm and some outfits when it was a little bit colder. That's why I'm wearing blazers and jackets. Click on the pictures to go the post to read about the details.

Outfits of the week: Week 31

This week I went shopping in Almere again! I think it's only been one time I didn't buy anything there. But ever since Primark arrived there I always buy something (a lot). Then again, I did wear a lot of items which I bought two years ago. So I might buy a lot, I still have a lot of clothes from two years ago.

Outfits of the week: Week 29

It was crazy hot this week. A little bit too hot. I went too lunch with a friend and I had another interview. And I worked a lot this week. So again, basically like last weeks. But that's okay, we can't all do exciting things. 

New collection of River Island

There is a brand new collection of River Island at Nelly. That's what I read in their newsletter so I decided to check the brand out. I like the clothes, though some of them are a little bit more on the pricey side. But I spotted a lot of summery items, bright colours, floral patterns, skirts and dresses. Perfect for these summer days and nights.

Short with prints

Lately I've bought/ordered a few shorts, faux leather, high waisted and with prints. Pants with prints have been hot for a while now and so do shorts. I'm showing a couple of shorts with prints, which are perfect for warm spring and summer days.
