Cheerio to the new Yeario!

Happy New Year!! 

The first weekend of the year.... Amsterdam has been very busy, there is a joyful atmosphere in the city. Waking up to a sunny morning is bliss! Even if it gets cold at night, celebrate the weekend with a drink and a snuggle. 

My boyfriend can play with his new toys (the copper cocktail shaker and jigger, from Crate&Barrel) while we create our new favorite drink; Gin & Tonic.

1. One shot of HENDRICK'S Gin
2. Few slices of cucumber
3. Topped off with Fever-Tree Tonic Water

Et Voila, Cheers & Happy New Year!

Re-wear Your Sequin Holiday Dress

This holiday season "the sequin mini" was a big trend. I myself wore this number for new years eve (I did not even get to wear it out since  came down with a fever, oh well). As always I try to find ways to re-wear a dress so it does not just hang in the closet. 

To balance out the glam of this dress I paired it with short biker boots and a jeans vest to make it more tough than chic.

Dress; Forever21, Jeans Vest; H&M (last summer)

New Years Resolution

Happy New Year Lovelies!!

May your year be filled with awesomeness, fashion and that what makes you happy :) 

With that said, have you defined your New Years Resolution? I think it should be something that you enjoy doing, but don't do to much of, instead of it being something you hate doing and not end up doing at all. A resolution should be a realistic goal, that would make a better you. So just forget about "keeping your room neath" (which we should do anyway) but, opt for that something fun in your life. 

As you see my New Years Resolution is to watch more Independent film and classic (black&white) movies. We live above a small cinema that only shows Indie movies and we have been way too little, to start to ball rolling, we went the night of christmas and it was very nice. Definitely doing that more this year. What will you be doing more of this year??

PS; Make a little collage or write it on a paper and keep it close with your daily routine. For example frame it and keep it on your desk. This way you will be reminded of it and it will be easier to keep up ;) 

DIY; Last minute - New Years Outfit

The year is almost over and done, so I leave you with a last minute DIY, that serves as a nice budget friendly new years outfit. I'm going crazy for fringe at the moment. I got this glittery black and silver fringe at the fabric store, anything else you need is a simple stretchy black (or any color you like) cotton skirt (try "this" one). 

You could go for either 1 layer or 2 (or more) for a fuller effect. Just keep in mind that the fringe band won't stretch with and needs to fit around your hips.

 It's awesome to dance in!! 

Hope everybody has a great NYE! and I wish you all a wonderful, fashionable upcoming year!
