Dressing up

 Recently I got this new chic dress, and I love it. I mean, how could I not?  When in doubt, a LBD is always a good idea!

 
This dress is due to the material and lace details quite a fancy dress, which is great for those evenings when I am going out to dinner. I’ll just add this pair of heels, and my little watermelon pink MK bag to add some colour. In fact, tonight I’ll be heading out in this exact outfit for my dad’s birthday dinner. Great thing is: it’s really comfy as well.

The pictures I took today have all been taken in the backyard of my new home, I’ll give you an update very soon about how my life in Curacao has been these last months.

I’ll speak to you soon!

LBD X ADDIDAS

   
      

 
Dress: Monki/ shoes: Addidas​ Stan Smith/ bag: Zara/ lipstick: M.A.C. – Russian red  

Hi babes!
I’m pretty sure every girl knows that the LBD is a essential. Now this one might not be so ‘little’ but a nice black dress is always welcome! I got this one at Monki and I’m obsessed. The turtleneck and slip give it a bit of a ‘sexy’ touch, but combined with some sneakers you can also wear it pretty casual.

Fall outfit inspiration

I love Fall outfits, simply cause I love layering, long coats, sweathers, the cozyness and colours and much more. Since I’ve been so busy lately I decided to create some outfits that I would wear this fall and to get some inspiration off. 
Since I was able to choose out off an entire bunch of clothes, I did add some more expensive items (just the absolute to die for designer bags). But I mostly sticked to shops I personally always like to shop!

Hi Loves! 
This (read: €13) pencil skirt, is my life, i love it so much. It’s really nice body flattering and just a simple trow on, which still makes you look chic. 

Especially in combination with this blouse. Somehow i found myself matching the colourful-mosaic designs from gaudi today. But ohwell, this top is great for hot weather, since the fabric is silk and nature-fabrics usually don’t make you feel so sweaty.  I really like this combination. What do you think? 

Speak to you soon!

3 designer pieces | wishlist

Hi everyone!

I always like to keep my eyes on the latest trends and designer pieces, and there are a ton of designer pieces i wish i could afford. i have a list on my phone actually with all sorts of designer pieces i hope too own one day, haha.

but if there would only be 3 designer items i would be able to buy, these 3 items would it be,

#1 the designer handbag

okay, obvious one. but honestly any designer bag can make a simple H&M white tee and jeans look like a million bucks. you’ll probably wear this bag a thousand times, since it’s an accessory which matches any outfit, especially a black structured bag.

my faves:

Saint Laurent – Sac de jour

  
givency – antoniga

  
balenciaga – city bag

  
#2 Leather Jacket

i feel like a good quality leather jacket is definetly worth the investment, especially if you’re like me and you wear leather jackets all the time.

my faves:

acne studios 

  
Saint Laurent

  
#3 Sunglasses

Maybe your not able to wear sunglasses year round, and isn’t it the smartest idea to go on a hike while wearing a pair of designer sunnies, i definitely feel like a pair of cool shades can totally update your look! Wearing a pair of designer shades gives me that fabulous “movie-kinda” feeling.  Totally worth the investment!

my faves:

  

  
Fendi 

  
Celine 

What would be your top 3? 

Happy Monday!

KAKI FOR SPRING

      

blouse: zara / jeans: levi’s / sunglasses: monk / shoes: vans / bag: status anxiety / watch: daniel wellington

Me and my best friend May visited Amsterdam this week. We both like a little adventure and didin’t mind to get lost in the city to find a ‘tumblrish place’ to have lunch, This was also a great way to discover the beautiful and less busy visited canals. A whole photoshoot followed. (You may be wondering at what time we finally had lunch, haha). And this would be the result. I am wearing this navy blouse which i am crazy obsessed with, the colour, the fabric and the way it fits made me fell in love with this blouse, also it looks way more expensive then it actually is. I also finally bought slip ones, i was looking for the perfect pair for a while now, and when i came across these leather ones at & other stories, it was love at first sight.

I hope you enjoyed this blogpost, speak to you soon!

Chilly spring days

      

Sweatshirt: Kenzo / leather jacket: vintage / jeans: Levi’s / heals: Bershka / bag: Status anxiety / watch: Daniel wellington / jewelry: dainty & bold 

Do you know those spring days, where the sun is shining, but it’s just a little bit to cold to leave without a jacket? That describes spring in the Netherlands most of the time. But i’m not complaining, the weather we had the last couple of weeks, was very nice! Time to get those sunnies back out of the drawer! Today i thaught i should wear my Kenzo sweatshirt once more before i put him back in to the closet for a while. And a leather jacket cause i personally think it’s the best coat to wear year round. The bag i am carrying around, is from the australian brand ‘status anxiety’ they were kind enough to send me one of there bags, and I’m absolutely in love with this bag, cause although it looks quite small, it fits everyting i need to be in there, like my wallet, phone, sunglasses and lip balm. Great bag for traveling and discovering the city. From now on i’ll post a lot more spring/summer inspired looks, speak to you soon! 

XOXO Sophia

CHECKED

   

   

Hi everyone, and Welcome to my lovely mansion…. Oh Well… I wish. when i found this gorgeous Mansion, i couldn’t resist to take some pictures from it. This day i was wearing my blue crop top from & other stories and i compared it with my checked coat that i recently bought in the sale in Antwerp. I have a slide obsession with coats, i can’t seem to buy enough of them, but since the weather is finally getting better perhaps i also won’t have to.
