From Best to Amsterdam

It is not busy at all in the train from Best ( near where my parents live) to Amsterdam. I have been a few days in the south celebrating christmas and all. So because there are just a few people inthe train I thought I can do a little outfit post!

* The denim jacket is from the waterlooplein, a 2th hand umarket in Amsterdam , I bought it for 10 euro
* The necklace I bought at a really nice clothingstore called Jutka en Riska.
* The shirt is from Zara, the jeans from The River Island and the shoes are H&M devided.

P.S. Do you like my new haircut? I was sl bored that I did it myself.

Rumors Vintage & Design

Last week I was shopping at the Haarlemmerstraat in Amsterdam. That is a street were I don't come so often, but that is going to chance I guess. Thanks to the really nice stores in that street. For example Rumors Vintage & Design, a really nice clothingstore that you can find on number 99 at the Haarlemmerstraat.
If you take a look at the pictures underneath you can see why I love this vintage clothing store.

Hairdo's I love

Standing up early this morning, because some men need to build a heather in my place. I left the Flat at 7.30 and went to te Coffee Company at the Waterlooplein and bought a caramel cappuchino. On a leather old cauch I read some old fashionmagazines and find some nice hairdo's in the L' officiel. I made
pictures of it because knowing that it will take eages to have my hair long again, I may dream of a haircut like these underneath.

A day at the Stedelijk Museum

Two weeks ago I had to make an study exercise at the Stedelijk Museum of Amsterdam. Because I hadn't so mucht time I couldn't be there so long, but I made these inspiring pictures of art. Hope you like them!

Made by Paulina Olowska

It is an amazing piece of art to me and the first think were I need to think about seeing this picture is the sweater of a good friend of mine. She has a look-a-like!

Made by unknown

Stupid enough, I didn't write the name of the photographer down. But the style of these two man is amazing!

Nature Girls, made by Martha Rosler.

Martha made this as a bart of the Beauty Knows No pain serie.

Made by unknown

I love this picture so much because it seems to have a very nice face! It is a bit strange though. 

Made by Leonardo Dicaprio

I have to be honest with this last piece of art, I didn't made a picture of it because I love it so much...

But he made it during his Titanic time and who wasn't in love with Leo back then?

The influence of Pinterest and Instagram on Fashionblogging

I'm doing a little research of the influence of Pinterest and Instagram on fashionblogging. Want I want to know if bloggers get more or less followers thanks to this hype.

So I wondered when you are a fashionblogger and you didn't already fill it in, would you be so kind to do so?  This is the link: The influence of Pinterest and Instagram on Fashionblogging.
It would only take 3 minutes of your time and I would be so greatfull!

Thanx,

Brandy & Melville, Amsterdam

Brandy & Melville is an original Italian brand but has stores all around the world. This year they opened a store in Amsterdam as well. I have to admit honestly that I never hearth of this store until I saw it in a shopping street  two months ago. And they have lots of amazing clothes! So I thought let's make a few pictures to share it with you guys and mention the address of the store, so that you can find it when you are in Amsterdam someday. But when I was making some pictures, just with my iPhone the people of the store said to me "No pictures,  no pictures". In English, not in Dutch. That is something I have a lot, somehow I don't look Dutch. Don't know why. But of course I made already some pictures, so you can get a bit of an expression of the store.

Hope you like it!

P.S. The adress of the store is Leidsestraat 43, Amsterdam
