It's hard enough to say that I miss you

I've been tagged by the two lovely Joni and Beckylou to do the same tag! And because the questions from both tags are pretty different, I'm combining them.

1. Answer the questions on your blog, replace a question you don't like with one of your own invention and finally add a question of your own.
2. Tag 8 un-tagged people.

1. What is your current obsession?
Floral patterns (even though it isn't current, but already for over a year), Miu Miu shoes, fantasy films and the fragrance Daisy by Marc Jacobs.

2. What is your weirdest obsession?
Can't really think of one though.. It isn't really an obession, but I've always been into that supernatural stuff.

3. What do you see outside your window?
Nothing at the moment, because my curtains are still closed

4. What is your favorite colour?
At the moment is my favorite colour dark red. Just like the carpet in my room. And light green!

5. Your weakness?
If someone says a negative things about a certain thing (the clothes I made for example), I can get really quickly insulted. Really have to work on that...

6. Which animal would you be?
A dog and then a Jack Russel. You know that little dog, who thinks it's really big?

7. What would you like to learn to do?
I would like to learn how to make big haute couture dresses.

8. What do you never want to happen in life?
I never and never want to lose my boyfriend. And today is our one year anniversary! Yay!

9. What is on your bedside table?
A lamp so I can read, a bottle of water, my Peter Rabbit and a book.

10. What's the last thing you've bought?
My Barbara Bui heeled sandals (see next post).

11. What do think about the person(s) who tagged you?
I think both are really lovely and different girls (with their looks and all) and I always like to read their blogs! The ones who read this, go read their blogs also! After reading my new posts ofcourse, haha.

12. What's your favorite childrens book?
Just like Beckylou, also Peter Pan!

13. Who do you want to meet in person?
Hmm... I would like to meet some Dutch/Belgium fellow bloggers! And also some others like Jane from Sea of Shoes and Karla from Karla's Closet! And Lily Allen...

14. What did you wanted to be as a child?
I wanted to be a lot of things. I wanted to be a singer, a dancer, a lawyer, a vet, a ballerina and at some point I even wanted to be Barbie... Weird...

15. What did you dream of last night?
It was really weird. I was at home, just downstairs in the livingroom and everything looked really different. There were several crocidilles, an elephant and my mom and I. And an other person, but I have no idea who. I was having a fight with a knife with two crocidilles (they could talk and walk on two paws). And I tried to kill them so I could stay alive and I kept warning my mom for the crocidilles. And the elephant was just being lazy... I can't remember more.

16. Do you prefer day or night?
Day, definitely.

17. What's your favorite piece of clothing in your own closet?
My red Prada jacket, I got from my dad when we were in New York last summer. I don't wear it often, because I'm scared I will rip it or something. Or spill something on it. And it's pretty hard to combine, because of the short sleeves and the warm fabric.

18. What's your plan for tomorrow?
I have to go to my internship from 9 AM till 5 AM.

19. If you were going on a long trip (you don't know where you're going), which 10 things out of your wardrobe would you take with you?
Hmm... My favorite cardigan, a floral dress, a pair of black tights (goes with almost anything), my red flats (for long walks), my new Barbara Bui heeled sandals, a black skirt, a basic tee, a scarf (if it gets cold), sunglasses and a bikini.

20. What would you like to have in your hands right now?
Those breathtaking black patent woven wedges from Viktor & Rolf. Those are amazing.

21. What is your must have at the moment?
Hmm... Same answer as question 20!

22. What's your favorite tea flavour?
Orange

23. If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Tokyo!!

Here are the people I'm going to tag!
Ella
Ulrika
Rebecca
Julia
Rhiannon
For the rest everyone I wanted to tag is already tagged! So I stick to these 5 amazing bloggers!

I hope everything enjoyed reading this! Now you know again more about me! Hope I'm not getting boring. But my last post I said if you wanted to know more about my bad wednesday you had to ask and Rain asked it! So now I'm going to tell it.
Everything started out all just fine. No problems, no delayed train or bus or whatever. It went well at my internship and it was a short day of only 3 hours. But when I went to Amersfoort again, to my hairdresser, everything went bad. On my way back I missed my bus, it left earlier and I walked all the way to the trainstation, where I missed my train by 5 minutes! Just 5 minutes! Had to wait there for 25 minutes. In the very hot sun. It's okay when it's warm, but I can't stand heath. I'm not used to it. So finally my train arrived. And I went on my way to Amersfoort. On the way I got some negative comments from some girls, god knows who they are. They were saying things like: 'look at 'that'' and 'how white can you be? Iewl'. And I just wanted to say: 'shut up!'. When I walked down the stone stairs, I slipped and fell. And my bag landed incredibly hard on the floor. And my camera was in it! I was sooooo scared it was broken! But thank god it isn't. But it is making this little sound, even though it is working as it should be. Kind of wondering if I should go back to the store... But I also got a ladder in my best black tights. And some bruises, muscular pain and some of my ribs are still hurting me. On the way back to the trainstation I kind of bumped into boyfriend! After that everything got better.

And another thing! I got a new blog addiction. So as many of you know I'm a shoe addict. And a very big one. And through a reader, the blog owner by the way, I got a new addiction. The blog is The High Heel Times by Dexter! I also discovered through The High Heel Times that Cameron Diaz was wearing my shoes, just like Christina Aguilera! Thank you for sharing this Dexter!

And now finally, after a bunch of typing (for me) and reading (for you) I'm going to show my outfit. This outfit is from last saturday, when I went to Amsterdam with my dad.

Where did my head go to?

Oh men, my memory is SO BAD! I still have to do some tags and I got an award (thank you all so much who gave the tags and award to me (more details further on this post)). I'm trying to put everything down here right now and if I forgot an award or tag, please tell me about it! If it was possible, I would forget my own head every morning. Really have to write down stuff...

But now the first tag! I got it from Rebecca.

Four places I go to over and over:
School, my dads place, Ilovevintage and the shoe department from the Bijenkorf
Four people who email me on a regular base:
Boyfriend, the dad, I email myself a lot because of schoolwork I make at school and friends
Four favorite smells:
Flowerbomb(!!!!!!!!!) by Viktor & Rolf, roses, my shampoo and the smell of new shoes
Four places I'd rather be right now:
New York, London, Iseo and with my mom who's lying at the hospital right now (nothing serious, just till tomorrow, but I miss her already)
Four tv shows I watch:
(this isn't a hard one!) Sex and the City, Gilmore Girls, Ugly Betty and Little house on the prairie
Four people I tag:
Whoever wants to do this tag!

And now the second tag! I got this one from Demi. Thank you to keep me from boredom!

Describe your personal style.
A mix of sweet vintage dresses, skirts and blouses with new high heels.

What are the staples in your wardrobe?
I have at the moment not really staples. All my dresses, cardigans, favorite shirts and skirts are hanging at my clothesrack. The rest of my shirts were lying on a shelf, but that's gone, so they're now lying in a big blue Ikea bag. Still have to find some space for them.

What's your signature look?
Dresses or a blouse with a skirt, a pair of tights (mostly black, but sometimes an other color) with high heels.

What inspires you?
My own clothes. I just have to look at a dress for example and I just see the whole outfit in front of me. And ofcourse fashionblogs! There a too much to say. Really. But they're all in my link list!

Who is your fashion muse?
Oh dear... That's a hard one. Even though I really love the style of Zoey Deschanel (I hope I write it correct)

Favorite purchase of all time?
This vintage dress, I got at Ilovevintage.nl

Biggest splurge?
These Miu Miu pumps, I got last december

What's your beauty routine?
First I wash my face, then I put up (sometimes) my eyeshadow from Estee Lauder, then my eyeliner from mostly Dior and the Diorshow mascara. And ofcourse! Also white powder, because I hate me red cheeks. The white powder is also from Dior (yes, dior make up addict)

What jewellery do you never take off?
My necklace I got from boyfriend, in august I believe.
Photobucket
What are you wishing for?
I'm graving for a pair Chloé, Viktor & Rolf and Balanciaga heels! I almost love always all of their shoes.

What are your obsessions?
High, high heels, tights, bows, floral patterns, dresses, Ilovevintage, Peter Rabbit, my dog Odie, antique furniture, dvd's, scarfs and vintage/antique jewellery

And yet again, I'm tagging no one! If you haven't done this tag yet, feel free to do it.

Now the award! I got this one from Yvonne, Berry Picking and Kathryn.

300th post and a tag!

Like the title says. 300th post already! Men, the posts are going fast. Even though I'm not that posting a lot, because all the things I have to do. December truly is the busiest time of the year. But I have a few things to mention:
  • I almost have my christmas vacation!
  • My outfit for school that I had to make is finished and turned in (is that correct?)
  • I'm going to decorate the christmas tree in about 15 minutes (I wanted to do it last wednesday, but I didn't had the time and the tree was still standing in the shed)
  • My grandmother told me today, that she wasn't so pleased with my shoe addiction (can't help it, I'm a modern girl (good excuse?)
  • I'm addicted to my new camera. Good thing that it's not drugs.
  • I've almost bumped into the guy who always was staring at me last school year. Not so fun. One time when we had the same train on the way to school, he was starring at me like a long long time. And when we walked to school (I tried to walk faster so I didn't had to see him anymore (maybe mean, but he freaks me out!), the guard (yes, we have guards at our school. In a later post I will tell more about it) said "Pretty girls go first" and the starring guy said "Well, he's right!". And I was like "Uhm.. Okay..?". Maybe not so bad.. But still x]
  • I really have to many tights. I can't even find my black pair anymore, without making a mess.
  • I always want to take my pictures outside, even when it's freezing! But not when it's raining.
  • And I'm tagged by the amazingly cute and lovely Ariella from Pearls in your Hair!

Those were the things I wanted to mention. Does someone have an idea how I can store my tights, so I can find the pair I want to wear (wasn't my intention to rime) without making a big tights mess of my room.
And now the tag!

Like I said, I was tagged by the oh so lovely Ariella and I have to write six delightful smiles, and six delightful bloggers.

  1. My boyfriend, ofcourse. He always succeed to make me laugh, even in the most impossible mood swings.
  2. Odie, my little fluffy dog. He manage to make you love him, even when you don't like dogs.
  3. Christmas!!
  4. Being in Amsterdam in the 9 streets.
  5. Library's and old bookstores. I love to be in a place with a lot of books. But not these dutch library's! They suck, I mean the Public Library in New York. That one makes me so happy!
  6. Snow, snow, snow, snow and snow! * Is singing 'let it snow, let it snow, let it snow'*.

I'm tagging the next 6 delightful bloggers: Ella, Penelope, Hippiegirl, Fashiontherapist, Andrea and Demi.

And now finally. My outfit! And believe me, it wasn't my intention to write this much!

My first tag!

So as the name of this post says, I've been tagged! Thanks to the lovely Lizbeth of Honeydipped.

And here are the rules:
Shout out those who tagged you.
List 6 unimportant things that make you happy.
State the rules and tag 5 other blogs.
Leave a comment letting the 5 blogs know they have been tagged.

I'm tagging Rebecca, Nikéh and Maxime, Eli, Modern Guilt (sorry, I don't know her name) and Imelda.

Here are the 6 unimportant things that make my happy
1. Watching Harry Potter when it's snowing outside
2. Flipping through the pages of Vogue magazine (doesn't matter which country)
3. Drawing
4. Buying flowers for my grandmother
5. Looking at my shoe collection (shallow?)
6. When my hair is curly

I tried to make outfit shots today, but I hate to use the flash on my camera. So the pictures are just really bad. I can never take good pictures on a monday. I'm always late home. So it's already dark then. I'm going to post an older outfit, which I forgot to post a couple of weeks ago... Or I was just too lazy.
