New buy: Stick with your first love: the Isabel Marant Reilly jacket



The Reilly/ July (they call them both names) jacket from Isabel Marant was my favourite item from the SS2011 collection, but the price tag and the fact I already owned many special jackets kept me from buying it. So when the sale started I was again in doubt whether I should go after this jacket. I decided to do so and ended up buying my second choice, the NAP july jacket. But that one made me realise even more that second best even wasn't enough. As if it was faith I ended up finding this beauty quite soon and with 20 % off, so my patience is rewarded!
Here some pics to show the beautyfull datails that not only makes this a amazing jacket, but also a true piece of art!

Outfit: 10 years...


Today, my boyfriend and I are together for 10 years! Very special, considering we are both only 27, but to us it just came naturally. Because we met near the beach we always tend to celebrate it near the beach so this time we went to "Bries" at Noordwijk. We were so lucky, the weather was just amazing. I was very happy I cut off my pink zara pants, they now look very much like the isabel marant shorts I admired, but those were sold out in minutes and were a lot more expensive.





Top: Acne Amon blouse
Pants: Zara (originally long pants, but cut off
Purse: Balenciaga city
Shoes: Isabel Marant Dicker boots
Glasses: Ray Ban Aviator, medium size

Outfit: Aztec Print


This outfit is almost a copy from a polyvore look I posted a while ago (HERE). I was already eyeing this amazing Sandro shirt and when the Net-a-Porter sale started I ordered it immediately. I have a weak spot for Aztec-prints and I was very happy to see Balmain does a lot of those prints coming season, so other fashion houses wil probably follow this trend. I already have my Zara Aztec winter coat ready in my closet! ( I saw one on ebay!)
And I am so happy with my Isabel Marant Dicker boots, I have walked for 3 hours and zero pain in the feet, that's quite unique for me!!!)

Dilemma: July jacket from Isabel Marant


Ok, this is a luxury-Dilemma. My first love was the turquoise July jacket, but in a impulse I bought the July jacket from net-a-porter. But I still could not get the original July jacket out of my head.... especially because this one has the same neckline detail as the Flana jackets. So now I am thinking about selling this one and keep the money apart to purchase the original one. The only problem is that I don't know if it will be up for sale in the future and now I tried the jacket with some of my clothes I come to the conclusion I can wear it in so many ways! Well, at least some eye-candy for all of you and what do you think, keep it or sell it?

Please don't mail me about purchasing this jacket, it's up on Ebay and Marktplaats.nl, so you can find the ad there, I don't check my blog-mail very often!

Outfit: Bunny in a bag


When I saw this shirt I knew it was made for me. Not only was my first designer bag a Mulberry, I also carried my bunny in a bag with me when I went to my parents for the weekend. When I was in the train, I let my bunny hop out of the bag and he always sat very calm beside me, you should seen the peoples faces when they looked at me and my bunny! I don't know how he would behave now, because that was years ago, but this T-shirt reminds me about that period. And also after a long time waiting I was able to get
the Marant boots, which I have shown in my polyvore looks endlessly, don't you think it is a perfect match with the taupe Balenciaga bag?

Polyvore: 3x shorts

I always love shorts for summer, they always give a more laidback look than skirts do and no worries about unwanted exposure either. I also used in every polyvore a new item I have not shown here before on my blog, can you guess which items?

Casual look:
3x shorts


Classy look:
3x shorts



Hippie look:
3 x shorts

5 piece french wardrobe: in retrospective



It is always good to look back at things you did well or in which things you failed.
Looking back at the past three months I am very happy with my five special purchases and I have also found some amazing basics!
First here is the list I made in March + what I bought:
1: embellished sandals ---> bought some from Supertrash, exactly what I was looking for except for the quality, the embellishment is already a bit loose.
2: multicoloured skirt ---> after a long search I finally found the Isabel Marant skirt I wanted for such a long time, it's pure perfection!
3: breathtaking party dress ---> can I say more about this 3.1 Phillip Lim dress?
4: colourfull tank top ---> This Helmut Lang top has only one color but is definitely an eye-catcher! The soft is feathery thin, but feels so luxurious!
5: ?? ---> my Zara pink pants already stretched too much after a few times of wear and are too wide now, I will probably turn them into hotpants, as I like hotpants to be a little bit oversized.
And the Patrizia Pepe jacket is just amazing, wore it three times in one week, it is special, but not too flashy for everyday use!

I can say that everything I was looking for was found, my only small regrets is that the quality of my pants and sandals are not amazing, so they probably won't last very long.
I also bought one thing too much, because I just could not let that amazing Patrizia Pepe jacket pass when it was on sale with 50 % discount... But I made up and sold 2 Isabel Marant jackets, yes I made up big time!

For the summer my wishlist is simple:
Colours, prints and lots of Missoni. And for the basics the perfect black skinny jeans and a light beige Blazer. There are already some amazing items on my way and I am afraid I wont make it with 5 pieces...
My basics list will come up soon!!!

Outfit: Pink Pants


I am back from Barcelona with only one purchase, I am proud of myself! I always thought that the coloured pants trend was something for me to admire from a distance, but when I saw these candy pink pants at the Zara for a very friendly price (20 euro) I couldn't pass. So this is what I wore this morning, later in the day it was too hot and ended up in a tank and shorts.






Jacket: Isabel Marant
Top: H&M
Pants: Zara
Purse: Balenciaga
Glasses: foldable wayfarer Ray Ban

Outfit: Dress as top

I can't wait for leaving towards Barcelona, but as I can only take hand-luggage with me I have to be creative with a limited amount of clothes. So one of my ideas is wearing my dress as a top. I only have to remove the skirt and add my fluro bag and voila, second look like worn HERE.
And I like it so much I have to give my other dresses a critical look and see if they can be worn as tops too, because it really gives extra possibilities in combining items!

As requested, a lot of pictures to show my new Chanel jacket. It is such a versatile piece, I've imagined so many looks already, but I loved how the colours matched perfect with the nudes and the Marant skirt.

Today, on a very sunny day, I wear my Fluro bag again and thanks to the sun it's even more bright than it already is. I combined it my favourite way: with nudes. In the future I am thinking about combining it with grey's and black and white. Do you girls have any other suggestions?

To celebrate my new Isabel Marant lurex skirt I wore it in a typical marant look:
