Bikini time

So whats up with the all the small bikini's? Yesterday we saw Heidi, today it is 90210's AnnaLynne McCord. AnnaLynne is staying in St.Martin with here boyfriend Kellan Lutz (twilight). While celebrating her vacation we were lucky to see here in a different light. Don't get me wrong here, she is allowed to show her beautiful bikini body, but do we need to (almost) see her vagina? She must have a great wax lady though! And AL, if I may call you so, you're boobs won't be bigger when you're bikini top is smaller, that only works for Heidi

H&M has some nice alternatives for AL.

Erykaaaah

I love Erykah Badu although her previous album wasn't all that fantastic. But her new album seems to be great according to the papers. I have heard it, belive it or not I do not have an opion yet. But what I do know is that I love this song! for real! It's a classic Erykah song:

love love love

Don't you just love fashion shows? I can watch ten of these clips over and over again; it's like counting sheep's before sleeping, in a positive way though

Trend alert

So I have heard about this new trend, it is stunning! without question!

Just kidding ofcourse! who would where this? This is one of my best friends, she had a major hangover and she needed to be the goalkeeper, it was just hilarious. But you should have been there because now it just seems lame, sorry. But can you imagine some one with an hangover in a suit like that....

playin it safe

Owl city had a mighty hit with fire flies. So when something is a big success you build on that same structure, right? Listen to this:



First off all: do you want to be taken serious? don't name your song vanilla twilight. I mean, WTF?
Second: do not repeat your success in your voice. To me it is really a like.

Sorry again

Gosh I'm so busy so no blogging for me these days. I rather be in a cold basement or hot ceiling to study from 10 till 6.....life's a bitch so that's why I'm not really apologizing here

In case you didn't understand: The above clip is sarcastic...i mean not to him (he called him self 'Keizer' aka emperor, he must be the man in his town?!) but to this post and to me and i hope to you it is an sarcastic clip.
Feel free to comment though

My phone

I'm not sure what to think of it...Not positive not negative

Dutchies

Dutch song of the day, I don't want to say anything else about it, not feeling like it. Just listen

Tip of the day

Tip of the day: count the days till the Garden collection of H&M hits the stores! (end of march)


I'm not kidding here! I love the collection. When I looked at this month UK Vogue and Dutch Glamour i saw some sunny/funny dresses and guess what: they belong to the Garden collection. H&M has a special press site for the Garden collection (bit weird don't you think?) But it does give us a change to look at the collection, click here

Ray

I'm going to do research about the beginning of soul music. I can't give you any information right now because I'm only at the point where I search literature, and I can tell you: that part sucks.

But besides literature there is the music:

oh oh

To my dear 5 followers,
it has been 4 days since my last blog, I'm so sorry.

Kyteman says sorry with me:

the marriage of food and movies

Martha Stewart futures an issue on her site about food in the movies. It's a nice subject with delicious recipes like Julia Child's boeuf bourguignonne, go and see

And to stay in this movie theme I will search some movie songs, you hear them when entering my blog.

Casual find of the day

I love this Topshop coat! To me it looks really like an A.P.C coat, which is a positive thing ofcourse.
So if you think the trench coat is to serious for you and you would like to keep it a bit younger, i would definitely go for this one.

Think it is my favorite spring coat, next to my leather jacket and green army coat.

You can also order it in stone color by the way, click here to see.

Find of the day

I all ready give you some music of the day. But thought it would be funny if I introduce a find of the day. It can be a fashion item, a recipe, a mobile app, a look, furniture, a website, you name it!
But I can't promise that I will post this every day because sometimes I'm just not inspired to search something...so perhaps than I will literally post what I found.
Ooooh I forgot: youtube find of the day! I think that will be my favorite subject!

Maybe this will give me more followers?

I love Ryan part 2

Besides acting, Ryan also has his own band: Dead man's bones I heard of it when i found this funny documentary and you can also here their music on my blog today and tomorrow!

I love Ryan

If I could name one actor that I love, it would definitely be Ryan Gosling!
Who did not fell in love with him in the Notebook?
But he did some more incredible movies like Half Nelson where he played a drug addicted teacher, it's a beautiful story and well played by Ryan, go see it! FYI: He got an Academy award nomination for it.

But this is probably the sweetest movie I have ever seen: Lars and the real girl.
Ryan Gosling is creating such a integer character here, it's really beautiful!!

And now there is this new movie with Ryan and Michelle Williams named Blue Valentine. It is going to be one of my Ryan favorites, i know for sure.

Justin Who?

Today is Justin Bieber his 16th birthday. Go celebrate if you want, I honestly do not care about this boy....but I'm posting this because apparently there are some people who care really much about Bieber.....I mean like...... really much! watch this:

Bday girl

Well it has been a while, but that is because I had a party weekend where I was the center of attention so I could not sneak out for a little blog update....

My dear friends gave me a lot of confetti, thank you guys! What I like the most is that I will be reminded by it at least the next 3 months.....

Do you know what I mean? This is the next morning.

To give you an idea of how much fun we had, I will be posting some new songs

Dutchies

When you look at a fashion spread in Vogue or Elle, you probably pay no attention to the model's background. Well I will help you with that because today I will show you Holland's pride:

Model of the moment: Lara Stone. You can't pick up a magazine without her in it, you can't watch a fashion show without out her walking, she is IT.
Born in 1983, now engaged to comedian David Williams.

Named model of the year by Vogue. Vogue also dedicated a February issue to her, with photo shoot by photographers like Steven Klein.
Right now she is the face of Louis Vuitton and Chanel

Doutzen Kroes

Born in 1985
She now is the face of L'oréal and Victoria's Secret.
She is one of the 5 models on the top-earning list

Bette Franke
Born in 1989.
She did some great shows like Prada and Hermes.
She appeared several times in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire and Elle.

More will come but I need to stop for now!

How Sue C it

A friend of mine just started watching Glee and she quoted this scene that I have to share because Sue Sylvester is just hilarious



Oke so if you don't like Sue, whitch I find hard to understand, you have to watch this:



Now would you please watch Glee! Because once you started I know you will love it as much as i do.

Oh and before I go to sleep, for all of you who can't wait till April:


Hm....what about the voice over saying: 'the wait is almost over'. I think not.

Bday

It's almost my birthday!! Sunday I'll become 20, officially no teenager anymore.

So I wouldn't mind if you gave me one of these?!
You can just sent it to me, no problem!

What did Dakota do with her pants?

Sorry Dakota but you are not rocking this look. I think you are a great talent and most of the time you look pretty fashionable for your age, but his....

What up with tiara? the shoes and the pants? The weird back pack....There are only a few who can rock those shoes (probably only the men in war).

I have no more words for this look and i need to go to college now

Bloggers are taking over

Fashion Bloggers are trying to rule London's fashion week, the big names in fashion world seem to be irritated by their unprofessional approach.

Read this Times artikel: Bloggers are snapping up front row seats at London Fashion Week

Picture by The Sartorialist, a blogger selected as one of Time Magazine's top 100 design Influencers

Bullys

Never been a big fan of Audio Bullys, but this song I can set on repeat!




So the music on my blog today has an UK theme!

It's like comfortfood

CW will release a new reality show, It's a bad one. In fact can you name one good reality show?

The name of the show? High Society



For me as a CW addict, it is going to be an other show on my long list. I can't resist it. Some people eat a lot of comfort food, I watch series.
Or maybe I can better say fast food: the Hills, the City, Gossip Girl, 90210, Melrose Place, America's next topmodel, Made, TBL

But i'm not all about junk food, I try to eat some culinary food: the Good Wife, Six Feet Under, ER, Damages, Sopranos

And than some of my favorite's I can't place, because they're neither brilliant nor bad: Grey's anatomy, Glee, Desperate Housewives, Skins, Weeds, True Blood, Lost, SATC, Heroes, Will&Grace

Well lets say that I watch a lot....And that I know myself well and this junk food of CW, High Society, will be a part of my long list.

Window Shopping

When i'm bored or when I can't concentrate on my study, sadly most of the time, I go for a little window shopping. Not for real of course, cause when I look outside right now it's raining cats and dogs! No....I just put everything that I want in my basket, on webshops. Don't know which one is more sad: window shopping or window webshopping?

To be sort of realistic to my self I only look at webshops I'm sort of able to afford, like urban outfitters, topshop, asos, new look and H&M not to forget! But perhaps it is better for me to not actually order my full basket, sometimes things just look better on the Internet, so I will just keep the illusion a live!

Here are some of my favs out of several baskets of mine!

Sweater of New Look, combine simple with a skinny jeans and ballerina's or for a summer night with a jeans short, not to tight, and Converse!: http://www.newlook.co.uk/women/tops/hoodies_and_sweats/1927883/192788370/productdetails.aspx?vid=1927898&language=en-GB

I like this H&M short.
I would wear a striped shirt on it.

or with this beautiful Filippa K shirt.

Paul Bellaart

The Dutch photographer Paul Bellaart is one of my favourites. His way of shooting is different than the general fashion shoots. It has classic elements, not to glamorous, just pure. He always works with beautiful models and a great team. My sister works for him, so I know that he is kind and funny man besides talented.

In the Holland fashion seen my sister and I have seen a copy process during the years. Before my sister worked for Bellaart we already loved his style, because by then it was rare. But a few years later more and more fashion shoots seem to have Bellaart's style. Now you can say that it's a coincidence, but I don't. Bellaart his previous assistant started doing her own shoots and for me it looks like she based those shoots on Bellaart, which isn't a bad thing if you give him credits. But I don't think that she does

The princess and the frog

I am a huge movie fan! Since i have this pass which allows me to go to the movies for almost free, I see at least 3 movies a week! Sounds sad but it almost feels like my second home. So, on Valentine's day I went to the movies with some friends, we were lucky to score the last tickets of Disney's new movie the Princess and the Frog. Gosh that movie is a must see! Loved it! It was really funny, but in a way kids probably don't understand. I love that about children movies, those inside jokes only the grownups understand.
It's really funny and romantic, but most of all I wanted to taste that delicious Gumbo the little girl made! So tomorrow I will make my own Gumbo, well it will be really different but i will tell you tomorrow, and i will def. make a picture!

sleep well
