I Love Sale!


(Bershka boots)
Hi! Today I'm doing nothing at all, just tumblr-ing and watching Skins. Do you know Skins? It's a bit weird, with all the drugs and stuff. But most of the time the caracters are really interesting and I just love the story line. It's nice (: And here are my new boots, I bought them last week in the sale. I thought they weren't high, but they turned out to be 8 cm. I didn't notice that when I fitted them in the store, but they're really comfortable. And by the way, do you know Ed Sheeran? From the song the A-team. Because I'm listening to his album right now and it's so good! It's different than all the song you'll hear on the radio now. The songs are really beautiful, the lycris is great and Ed has just a very pretty voice. I recommend it (:
Lots of love,

My new year resolutions aren't really working out. I wanted to post more often and I'm only posting less than before. But since I discovered tumblr, I've been addicted! It's absolutely useless, but so much fun. I have two tumblr's: Happy Foolish Young and Happy Beats. Do you have tumblr? If so, please tell me what it is. I would love to check yours out!
Bye!

'Cause Baby You're a Firework!

I just had my audition for the music evening from my school and it went well! The jury was super positive and was impressed by us singing polyphony. They asked us why we hadn't auditioned the previous years, so sweet (: So now I'm really, really happy! And next to telling this, I wanted to share some beautiful songs with you. I've been listening to these a lot and I love them!
Phoenix 1901 D.L.I.D remix : I love Birdy's version of this song. But after listening non-stop to Birdy, I wanted something new. I think this version is really nice, less sad than Birdy's.
Lana Del Rey - Born To Die : The first time I heard this song, I didn't like it. I thought her voice was way too low. But after a while, I think it's actually really fresh and cool that she sing low. The lyrics may not be very positive, but I don't mind. And by the way, if you watch the video and you can't stand blood: don't look after 4.13, you probably won't like it.. Her other single (Video Games) is also very nice, but you might already know that one. It's been on the radio a lot!
Cher Lloyd - With Ur Love ft. Mike Posner : Lovely song, lovely girl and boy and a lovely song. No more to say I think! (Except for the fact that her newest single is nice too! Want U Back!)
Natalia Kills - Kill My Boyfriend : This song is just funny. If I couldn't understand English, I would think this is just a lovely and happy song. But it's not very positive, killing your boyfriend isn't very nice haha. I like Natalia Kills because she a bit different than other singers, a bit weird sometimes but I think that's a good thing. As I told before I'm a fan of Pixie Lott, but I think that's changing. After seeing her in real life, I realized she actually very normal. Her music isn't very innovative. I like her fashion style, but I think I'm done with her songs. Have you seen her new video, Kiss The Stars? What do you think of the video? It's stupid right? Weird dancing, no story and again not innovative. It's a pity ):

Like a G6 vs. Kids : This is a remix of Like a G6 (Far East Movement) and Kids (MGMT). I love it! I think they mix really well. Found this on someone's tumblr site (it started playing when I opened the site) Normally I hate that because I'm always listening to music and then the songs play through each other. But now I was really happy I heard the song, been listening to it so much (:
Ed Sheeran - The A Team : Beautiful. So sad, but so good. By the way, Birdy's version of this is also very beautiful. A bit more sad (as always with Birdy), but very good.
Okay that were my current favorites, I hope you like them. This is a very long post by the way, didn't realize that until now haha. Hope you don't mind (:
Have a nice day!

Denim and Velvet

(H&M blouse and shirt, Monki skirt, Hema tights, Zeeman socks, River Island shoes, necklace and bracelet from my mom)
Again two weeks passing by without any posts ): I promised to myself that I would most more, but unfortunately that isn't really working. But anyway, I have some very special news to tell. As you might now, one week ago I was in France skiing. And the last day my family and I went to a little restaurant and Pixie Lott and Chipmunk were there too! I couldn't believe it! It was so weird to see them in real life, like it was some kind of dream. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me, but I actually didn't even dare to go to them haha. But 2012 got even better for me. Last Monday, I was called by a company for who I did some kind of test for 5 years. And by making this test you could win things like an Ipod and an Ipad, the grand prize was a trip to New York. So when they, I thought; 'Well maybe I win a Ipad! That would be great!' But then she told me what I really won.... THE TRIP TO NEW YORK!!! I was and still am so happy, I just can't believe it! The trip is in may and I can't wait. I've never won something so big, only things like markers or a pan. So 2012 is already a really good year for me (: And this Tuesday, my 4 friends and I are going to audition for the music night of our school. We're singing Firework from Katy Perry in a ballad version. I'm a bit nervous to be honest, I'll tell you how it went when I auditioned!
Lots of love,

A Fresh Start

(Monki cardigan, H&M blouse, River Island trousers and shoes, necklaces from a local store)
Because it's the first day of 2012, I'm making a fresh start. So I changed the lay out of my blog a bit. I'm also thinking about a new header, but I'll do that when I'm back home. Tomorrow I'll be in the mountains, I hope I haven't forgot how to skie. Anyway, I hope you had a great New Years Eve and 2012 will be a good year. 
Lots of love,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I wish you all a wonderful, amazing, great 2012!
Here are some of my outfits from 2011, one from every month. 2011 has been a nice year for me and a lot of things happened. I started my blog, dyed my hair (twice), cut my hair short (also twice, I still regret the second time I want my long hair back), went shopping in thrift and vintage stores, found my perfect studies (lifestyle and design or social work), made new friends, had my exams and got good grades, and a lot more.. For 2012 I just hope to find my own style, begin with my portfolio and of course stay healthy and happy. I hope to stay blogging and I hope you will (still) like it (:
Lots of love!
