H&M sale

Hello guys,

Today I went shopping with my mom. Luckely H&M has lots of items on sale, so we both bought some nice new items. I wanted to share them with you. I had to make selfies with them, so they are not great pictures. But I hope you like the items I bought :)
Sorry it isn't a very long post, but I don't think it matters hihihi :)

Most of the time I wear a jacket or a coat over my clothes.
I don't know why, but I think I wear them
to cover up. Besides that I just love them and
I wanted this jacket for a long time, so
you can imagine I was really excited this was in sale.
From €39,99 to €15,-

I nice knitted top. You can see
how happy I am with this top :)
From €14,99 to €7,-

Sorry for the hand on the picture. But I really wanted
to share this jacket/kimono with you guys. So I made
the pictures myself :)
From €19,99 to €10,-

The most important call

I am really sorry that I didn't post my results right away!
But better late then never :)

So here it goes.
I woke up really early. Not the best thing to do in my case. Untill the call I was really nervous and I just sat on the coutch and watched TV. Everybody sended me messages and was calling me. 

My class has a group chat, so when the first person said he didn't passed, I was extremely nervous. The tought that I didn't passed took over. But when people said they had passed their exams the thoughts went away.
Yet a little voice in my head said: 'What if she (my mentor) forgot to call me and I actually didn't passed?'

But that wasn't the case, I actually graduated with two sevens on my reportcard!!
I was so happy, I told everybody. First I called my parents (they had to work, so I was homealone), then I called and send messages to my friends.
So now I get the chance to start a new chapter in my life. Because after the summer vacation ends, I am a STUDENT!!!

Ojeah, I even got my own coowl flag!

Of course we had to celibrate that I passed my exams. So I invited my friends and we had a little backyard party. It was really nice, because I got spoiled with lots of presents.
From my parent I got a POLAROID. I am so happy with it, it is really coowwll!! And from my friends I got a lot of candy!! Just when I wanted to start with my diet hahahah

The crazy crew together!!

My own black POLAROID!!

Prom!

Tuesday me and my friends went to prom!
First we agreed to meet at my house so we could dress up and have a nice afternoon with the girls.
After that, a massive white limo stopped in front of our house.

Of course we had to take a lot of pictures with and without the limo:)
It was a great evening and night. The party was a great ending of my time at high school (well that is what I'm hoping, that it is the end of my time at high school. So I can start a fun new chapter in my life). I wanted to share the pictures we made at prom with you, so I hope you like it. And I also hope you like my outfit. I am wearing a long black dress, with open heels. Both are from H&M. 

Now, right at this moment, I am waiting for the phone to ring so I can find out if I passed my exam or not. I am so freeking nervous. 
But I will tell you everything when I get my results :)

Wish me luck, I will be back!!

Well, this is not the best picture.
Because this one was taken with a polaroid,
so I had to photograph the photo. hahah
But here you can see really good, what we
were all wearing and how pretty everyone looked :)

Ojeah, we had our own limo and it was AMAZING!

Dried flowers

I have to keep busy, so I decided to start a new hobby. 
I am drying flowers so I can use them as a decoration for card and on/in my notebooks.
It is really easy to do, so let me explain it to you:

The long way:

• Choose the flower you really like, obviously :)
• Divide the flowers, so you get a nice bunch of flowers.
• Bind the flowers together.
• Hang the flowers upside down and let them dry for 2-4 weeks.

The short cut:

• Choose the flower you really like.
• Put the flower between a folded paper.
• Put them under some heavy books.
• Let them dry under the books for 3-4 days.

I hope you like to dry flowers just as much as I do :)  Maybe you can share some of your dried flowers with me!

These flowers I dried myself.
I dried the flowers by following
the steps from the short cut :)

These flowers I copied from the Freepeople Blog.
Just because I really like their blog and
I liked all the flowers they dried.
I hope you don't mind that this isn't my picture :)

A healthy meal

I am home alone tonight, so I decided to make a healthy meal for myself.I had a couscous salad with Maroccon chicken with lemon-mintdressing and some tasty detox water.


How to make the salad

- First you need spiced couscous. You need to cook the couscous an add onions, tomato puree, olive oil, salt, regular tomatoes, spices, coriander, chilli and garlic.
- Then you need to add the marinated roasted chicken. You need chicken meat, fried red peppers, fried onions, red vinegar, spices, lemon juice, cornstarch and you have to let it marinate for an hour or four.
- After the chicken is marinated you need to roast it. After you did this you just need to add spinach, garden peas, red pepper, green onion and arugula.
- For the mint-lemondressing: you just put water, olive oil, honey, suger, lemon juice, mint, tarragon, orange juice, salt and pepper together.


The detox water
It is quite easy to make the water. You just take a glass, fill it with water and add (in my case) two strawberries and a string of mint.

I hope you enjoy the recipe just as much as I did :)

Trip to Amsterdam

OOTD :)

Today I went shopping in Amsterdam.
After my morning workout (I am trying to lose some weight) I got on the train and went to Amsterdam. I had to buy some fatherday gifts, but I also bought some things for myself.


But first I wanted to share my outfit from today with you. 
In the picture I am wearing my dress form Doubleagent with, ofcourse, my Levi jacket. 
It was really windy today so I had to pull my dress down every minute. But besides that I thought I looked cute. Hihihi



I am not going to tell you what I bought for fathersday, because my dad also reads this blog :)
But what I can tell you is what I bought for myself today.
I have an upcoming dance (prom), so I had to buy shoes, a clutch and etc. I certainly succeeded with the shoes and assecoires. Underneath the items I bought today, with a small description :)

In this picture I also photographed
my new bracelet that will go perfectly
with my prom dress.
I bought it at Brandymellville for €12,00

scented candle from the HEMA.
I love the smell of cedar.
Cedar is a mix between amber and musk.
You can buy it at the HEMA for €4,00

These are the shoes I'm goint to
wear with my prom dress.
I bought them at H&M for €19,99.
They are really comftorable actually. hihihi

I wanted an eye fish lens for my phone.
And now they are selling them at the HEMA
for €5,00. They are so easy to work with.
You just paste a magnet on to your phone and
the lens will stay on to the magnet, so you can take
great pictures :)

Arts and Crafts

Hello guys,

A few weeks ago I bought this book called:  Vintage at home. I bought it in a fair trade store in Almere. It's called WAAR. It is a lovely store with fair trade items and I go there a lot. Not just for the items, but also for the people. The people who work there are so nice and welcoming :)

But back to business. This afternoon my mom and I decided to make something out of this book. I made the lampshade and my mom made the great and awsome decorations for my boots. I really love them. 

How to make the lampshade:
* buy an old lampshade on a vintage or a flee market.
* take the original fabric off.
* decide what you want to put on your lampshade: Fabric scraps or pieces of lace, stuff like that.
Just glue it on the lampshade and it's finished.

I had a lot of fabric scraps, so I knitted them together and pasted them with my glue gun on the lampshade. 
At kingsday I bought a lot of old lampshades for less then €2,- This lampshade was my first try so now I can make a lot more.

How to make the decorations on my the boots:
* you need ribbons, or other nice things you can sew on it.
* you also need a big piece of leather to sew the decorations on it.
* to rap the pieces around your boots, you need to make holes in patch so you can attach the laces. 
Whe bought a big piece of leather on the fabric market and the ribbons we bought at the Xenos. It al costs like €10,- 

I hope you like what we made and if you ever have any questions, you can just email me with the question :)
