Accessories haul #1 💗

Any fashion blogger or stylist will tell you that basic items are the most important items in your closet. They will also tell you that you should use accessories to spice things up: okay, the trendy accessories do change up from time to time, but they're cheaper to replace. Fashionable clothing items are not so easy to replace (imagine having to buy something from every new collection, sometimes it's just not possible).

 I decided to follow my own advice and go shopping for accessories, since I obviously needed some new, fresh items!  

You may or may not know this, but I'm a huge fan of statement necklaces. I love the ones that H&M and New Look sell, because they have so many options: there's literally something for everyone (different styles, colours, sizes,..).

Here's what I got! 

H&M

I love the necklaces that H&M makes with more than one option. For example this shell necklace, it's so cute, but they give you some more ocean inspired jewels in case you want to change it up!

New Look

So delicate and sophisticated!

Claire's

Claire's is a shop that in my opinion you love or you hate. Some of my friends think it's an awesome shop, others think it's a shop for teenage girls. 

I used to go there to get hair grips and such, but after getting my nose pierced, I also tried a couple of their piercings. I never had any problems with the studs and they're quite cheap, so I went back to check out the other piercings they have for sale.

I ended up getting this pack of four with summerproof belly button piercings!

That's it for part one! I have a part two coming up that are a bit more about earrings and ear cuffs. I hope you'll be here to read that too!

"Crossed" bookhaul!

Happy Thursday! 

Welcome back! How's life?

I have been living a pretty normal life. Reading books in school, and reading books at home! Of course books don't last forever, so I have to get new ones!

That's what I did! I told you about the "Matched" series by Ally Condie before. Maybe you've read them yourself (if so, please let me know what you think of this series). 

 

I'm currently reading the first one (Matched) but I also purchased the third book (Reached). Now, I can't continue this series if I don't have the second book, can I? Ive been looking for it for quite a while, but I couldn't find it (just like I couldn't find the first one for a really long time), so I decided I'd order it!

 

It finally arrived! I have no idea what's going to happen in this book, but I know I can't wait for whatever adventure is coming my way!

By the way, am I the only one who LOVES the covers of these books? They are so simple, but so pretty! I know you're not supposed to judge a book on it's cover, but a pretty cover always helps!

I'll keep you posted!

Book haul: Young Adults!

Hey you guys!
It's the last days before school start for me and I've been trying to enjoy myself! It's a good thing there are books around to keep me busy sometimes!
I recently did some bookshopping (again) and I got two books. Both books are dystopian and both books are the sequals of books I already have!

The first book that I got is the second part of the "Selection" trilogy. I must be honest, I haven't even read the first book yet, so it better be good!

The other book that I got is "Reached" by Ally Condie. This is the last book in the "Matched" trilogy. I have just started reading this trilogy right now.
Reviews will be online soon!

Book haul: "Wreck this journal"

Hello! How are you?

Last week I finally bought a book that I have been wanting for a reaaaally long time:

WRECK THIS JOURNAL.

 

Basically, this book is a journal but it's not a normal journal. You can't write about your feelings or stuff that happened that day. It's a book with many activities that you can do - no typical activities, but okay - sounds fun to me!

I think when I did everything in the book, it won't even be a book anymore. You have to take it with you when you're in the shower, you have to throw it around (which my dad already did for me when I was reading it in the park), you have to pick it up without using your hands, ... 

Normally I'd go crazy if someone threw my book around or did anything else with it, but I mean, it's obviously the meaning of this whole book.

It's something new and I'm sure good memories will be made. I'll let you know how it goes!

Do you have this book already?

Book haul: MATCHED

I'm back with another book haul! 

Lately, the Young Adult section in my bookstore has been filled with tons of really interesting books! The book that I got this time - called "Matched" by Ally Condie - is a book that I've been wanting for a very long time.

It's the first book of a trilogy.

However, my bookstore can't keep it in stock (must really be a great book), so I had to order it.

The cover of this book is so, so beautiful! 

 

So this book actually reminds me of "Delirium" a lot. (Read my Delirium bookreview and Pandemonium bookreview).

Just like in "Delirium", the government matches people to each other and decide how many kids they can have, but they accidentally match someone to two people.

What to do?

I'm really excited to see what's going to happen! Of course I will review these books! 

Have a good day!

Book haul!

Hi!
Here I am again with another book haul! Last week I bought two really interesting books!

The first book that I bought is "Mr. Mercedes", by Stephen King. It looks like an amazing book to me, I've always liked Stephen King's books! As always it's full of scary things, murder and mystery! I'll let you know what I think about it!

 

The next book I bought is a book about mythology. In this book, all the mythology from different areas and times is written down. I think mythology is very interesting and I also think it's going to come in handy next year when I'm studying History.

Thanks for reading!

Mixed bookhaul ♥

As a little bookworm, I love coming into my room and seeing that my dad got me a book. I love going to the bookstore and coming home with a treasure as well.

Recently he has done a lot of effort to get me a couple of books. I decided I would do a mixed haul for you.

The first book that I bought was the third book from Veronica Roth's Divergent series. This book is called Allegiant.
It came out last week (well, in my country, it had to be translated first). I had been waiting for it for such a long time so I'm glad to have it!

The next book is a book about the first World War here in Belgium. I have always liked history and I'm especially interested in the World Wars. Since I'm also going to be studying history in college next year, it would do well to read it.

Next I got another book, this one is by Pieter Aspe. I don't know if the name will sound familiar to you but he's actually a very known, succesful writer here in Belgium. He mostly writes thrillers and his books have been turned into series on television.

Thanks for reading!

Vintage haul part 2

This girl right here is so excited for spring and summer! Over these last few weeks, I've collected a couple of skirts and dresses (all pin-up style) that are so incredibly adorable and beautiful! I have put up a post not so long ago showing you a couple of skirts that I got, today it's time to take a peek at two other dresses that arrived!
In these pictures I'm actually wearing the dresses, they're not on my mannequin. What do you like to see most: clothes on the mannequin or clothes on me? Let me know!

Both of the dresses that I got are by Hell Bunny and they're both light blue. I really love bright colours and patterns in the spring and summer, it feels and looks refreshing in my opnion! Ok so here is the first dress (I also have a skirt with thesame pattern that you have seen in outfit posts before!).

This is the skirt with thesame pattern.

The next dress that I got is a halter dress, it's blue as well and it's got parrots on it. It's by Hell Bunny as well! They also had this kind of yellow colour that I really liked but someone got the last item just before I wanted to order it so yeah.

That's my new vintage stuff! Thanks for reading again today!

Huge vintage haul!

Hi everyone!
Last week I placed two orders at Topvintage (this haul is about the first order), which is my favourite site for online shopping when it comes to finding good vintage items. First I placed an order for 3 swing skirts and after that I got two items in sale! I had been waiting for the price of the dresses to drop a little bit and I actually got the last piece of those dresses, so I'm very happy about that!

I thought it would be fun to show you what I got exactly. Normally I don't do this if I've got a new shirt or something, but I thought since this is a huge amount of clothes, I would show you! I have a mannequin in my room that really comes in handy with this type of post! I might actually do hauls more now!

This skirt is by Steady Clothing. It's so beautiful and cute! The colour is very pretty, not only for winter, I think I will be wearing this in summer a lot as well!

Last year I got a blue dress by Hell Bunny and this skirt has thesame print on it. Only, it's black. I loved the blue dress (I will post a picture below) so I thought I'd get the black skirt as well.

This is the dress I was talking about!

And last but not least I also got this tartan skirt. It's really pretty and I have a lot of purples and greens like in this skirt so mixing and matching should be fun! I already have a look in mind!

 That's part 1 of my haul (my other dresses still have to arrive)! Thanks for reading!

MAC beauty haul

Hi everyone! Last Thursday I celebrated my seventeenth birthday. One of the things I really wanted was to go to the MAC store. And I did! I had a blast! I had my makeup done by one of their makeup artists (really sweet, funny guy) and I also bought some things!

What I bought:
* MAC mineralize skinfinish in "Adored" (Limited Edition)
* MAC lipstick in "Russian Red"
* MAC eyeshadow palette (with only two colours in it)
* MAC "Woodwinked" and "Texture".

You could say that I have added a couple of very nice products to my makeup collection. I also spent a lot of money, but well... I worked for it myself and it was my birthday! Is that a good excuse? Haha!
Thanks for reading! Let me know which products from MAC you absolutely love!

NEW IN: hair care and and colour explosion!

Hi! I have another mini haul for you! Let's start by saying I forgot to put one item in the photograph because my sister had it in her bag (mine wasn't big enough). It's a hair repair hair mask by Schwarzkopf. I got it because my hair has always been a bit dry, but going back to blonde didn't give my hair a boost so...

I really want to do the best I can and keep it healthy.

 

Next I got another hairspray for when I decided to make another hair do. This is just the drugstorebrand, nothing exciting really.

I also got an Essence nailpolish. Lately, I've been buying more nailpolishes. These last few months I've barely painted my nails but now I'm back into it! The colour that I got is a cute mint green, which I like a lot, and it looks fresh this summer as well!

The last item that I got it a blue mascara by 2B. I was so excited when I heard about coloured mascara's coming back again! I'd been searching for it for a while, and now that I saw it, I had to have it! They also had purple and other colours. I was doubting which one to take at first (since I didn't want to buy 4 mascara's at once) but I decided to go for the blue in the end. Maybe I'll pick up the purple one later!

I also placed an order at eyelipsface (E.L.F.) - so those products should get here soon! I know E.L.F. is a quite cheap but good quality and a very well known brand in beauty world, but for some reason I never got anything.
Maybe that's because I don't like to order makeup online? Oh well, I did for the first time now and I can't wait to get my new stuff delivered! I'll haul that too! (Oh god, I'm buying a lot of makeup again!)

Thanks for reading! Have a nice day!
