Beautiful Blogger Award(Manon, Layla, Ilanka, Fesi, May, Thu-hien, Angela)

So a few days ago Naomi nominated me for the "Beautiful Blogger Award" so I cannot just ignore this, because I'm not an ignorant bitchhh, hehehe. So what you need to do when you're nominated is:

2. put the award on your blog
3. share 7 interesting facts about yourself
4. give the beautiful blogger award to 7 other people.


1. First of all I'm not your typical girl... I really like to game my favorites are: Call of Duty(xbox360), Battlefield 2(PC, my favorite map is strike at karkand, hehe), I was addicted to several Online RPG games (so I refuse to start new RPG games, because I will need to get myself to gamer rehab, ahahha)

2. I like all sorts of music. So sometimes I caught myself listening(sneaky) to Miley Cyrus and Taylor swift, WHHAHAHAHAH!! I'm even more ashamed after confessing this, ahahha. But hey, at least I'm being true... rofl (dork)

3. I like to burb(?)...

4. I design websites and I own www.urbanstart.nl

Busy Busy Busy Work Work Work...

This last year I have been really and I'm mean really busy with working on my website. For the ones who don't know, I own the streetfashion website www.urbanstart.nl. So I have been wanting to update the layout for like a few months, but I just refused to do it, because I have to much going on + I hate programming it's the most boring thing ever(XHTML, CSS, PHP etc.)

So I wanted to give it a more clean and grown up look and I tried to keep it as similar to the current layout as I possibly could. I also wanted to give it a bit of a spring look, because spring is coming up. So I used a light purple/green-blue(ish)/white/black colourpalette. Well, I hope you guys like it and I have a little preview bellow.

Counting down the days...

I have been obsessed with the Jeffrey Campbell Pixie Wedges for like the last couple of months... Because they are so simple, so adorable, so perfect, so everything... So I wanted to order them a while back but they were sold out everywhere. Luckely they are in back order and available again on 28/2! Hahah, I think I'ma stalk solestruck the whole day to see if they are there, because it might sound weird... But I had a dream(or maybe nightmare?) the other day that it was 28/2 and I was to late ordering them and they were sold out, HAHAHAHAH!! D; I will not rest untill I get these babies on my feet...

NOTD: Aqua/Minty

Mhhm, I'm taking back my words about this nail polish, because at first I tought it wasn't really the minty colour that I wanted. But it is actually a really pretty Aqua/Minty colour! Only out in the sunlight, though... (because inside it looks like shit)

Plastic Perfection...?

Riiighhhhtttt......

I don't know what the hell she is doing, but she needs to stop it, because it's only going down hill from this point. I think it's just sad how she let's all the media and blogs get to her, because this is exactly what they want...

Wildfox Fall 2010 Preview

We'll have to wait a couple of months for this one, but here's a little preview of what we can expect from Wildfox's Fall collection. I've allways loved Wildfox, because I really think that they fill the gap between fashionblogclothing(the more girly stuff) and streetwear(the more edgy chicks). I can only give them lovee, keep it up!

Xoxo,

NOTD: Moon Manicure

Mhm, I don't really know what to say about today... The only thing I can think of is the fact that I fixed up my nails with a cute moon manicure. So I used the lavender nail polish from Herome as a base coat and a dark red/purple-ish nail polish from Catrice for the stripe. I actually really like the basic lavender, but the moon manicure look is cute too. (BTW I wasn't to neat on this one)

Happy Valentine's Day

As much as I think Valentine's day is the most cheesy(cheasy...?) and commercial day of the year, I would love to get one of those sandwiches! They're so adorable.

I HATE SNOW....

Lately I have been so happy, thinking that the snow period has finally left our cute little country... But then the motherfucker starts again, god damnit...



BTW look at my cute Hello Kitty watch! : D

Outfit of Today

So today I snatched an old sweater from my mothers closet, because she doesnt't wear it anywayss. Mhmm, I wonder how old that thing is. I think the guy is older than me, rofl... Paired the lil' fella up with an H&M grey tregging and bag, Topshop overknee wedges and some bracelets(the spiked one is from Asos and the others I don't really know...). So it looks pretty clean, not to much going on. And ehhh, don't mind my face I don't know what the hell I was doing, rofl.

New Nailpolish

I really needed some new nail polishes. SO yesterday I bought some really cute ones. I bought the (red, lavender and the mint) Herome ones at Douglas(6.95 each), too bad of the mint one. I tought it was a more brighter minty color, but apparently it's not... I really like the the pink-red-ish one and that one is from Etos(2,90). I also bought an highlighter/eyeshadow at Meuwese(4,90). And I stopped by H&M to get a new grey tregging(19,95). See pics bellow. (Btw. I was to lazy for the tregging pic...)

True Passion

I got really inspired by Ilanka from Fashion-Nerdic! I mean like she's *** genius I love the way she works different types of colors and fabrics. And I just really wanna thank her for reminding me what my true passions are.

I made two ready to wear designs, so they are pretty wearable. It's not my best work, but it's all right. So I really wanted to make a gradient cardigan with Balmain shoulders(not to dramatic, though), so yeah. I tried out some different color gradients and i have to admit... The purple/blue/white colorway looks genius. It has color but at the same time it's not too colorful and it also has a cool/clean-ish look to it, if you know what I mean.




Both outfits are inspired by one of Ilanka's looks(with the bustier and high wasted pants look1 and look2), which I lovee. I only think I went wrong with the pants xD. I probably should've made a dress of it, well yeahh. (haha, and as you can see my handwriting sucks lol)



I Made these a few days ago. Enjoy and let me know how you like 'em. And another thanks to Ilanka, you should check out her blog for sure!
