Off to Berlin!

I'm off to Berlin for a few days. The report will be on here, ofcourse!

Auf Wiedersehen!

Putting prints together... How?

colorful floral shorts - vintage, striped croptop - forever21, shoes - topshop, cardigan - primark, belt - granddad

One of my favorite combinations in patterns is floral mixed with stripes. I don't know why, I just love it together. Stripes always make you look a little bit more put together and fresh, and floral patterns always make you look girly and twirly, dreamy even. The two combined kinda discribes me. Combining patterns is easy: just put one louder print with a more subtle one. So I chose these (pretty) loud, colorful shorts with this more subtle striped top. Ready for a hot summersday (and throw over a cardigan for the evening).

Also wearing my new shoes. What do you think? I'm obsessed..

Update #2: Announcement

Second update, which has some bigger news than just some gigs and festivals I've seen.
If you know me, you've known about this for a long time but I've never told my followers this:
I'll be leaving my country for five months because… I'll be an intern at a design company in Wales!

I'm so excited about this! I'll be a fulltime intern at Daydream Designs North Wales, and I will be moving there from end of August. I will be back in January next year.
I'm finally doing this! I've always wanted to go abroad for a while and eventhough I'm a bit scared I'm also really really excited and anxious. How will the internship be like, where will I live (I don't have a  room yet), how will my life be living in The United Kingdom? Will I get a British accent (I hope so!)?

As for blogging.. I hope to blog a lot more while I'm there. Not so much about fashion maybe, but I will be blogging a lot about my experiences. For my family and friends to read, but also for my other followers. I'm also considering changing the content of my blog for the long term, maybe a new name and starting to blog in Dutch. I'm not sure, who knows.

I'm looking for a room right now and organizing the whole thing. And besides that I'm enjoying my time here with my friends and family, doing as much fun things as I can. Also a reason why I haven't put much up on here lately. I hope I will post some more soon and I will keep you guys updated about everything!

Cheers!

Personal update #1: Festival Season

Festivalseason has begun! And I'm loving it already! I'm already down to three festivals, the fourth one is coming up this weekend, Best Kept Secret (I. Can't. Wait.).
So far I've been to Bevrijdingsfestival Utrecht, Dauwpop and Vestrock. Saw a lot of really cool artists like The Wombats (finally), Taymir (when not?), Jett Rebel (again, when not?), Young the Giant (I actually found the setlist in the sand in front of the stage), Moss, Psycho 44, Mintzkov and White Lies (best thing ever).


But that are not all of the concerts, I also saw some artists live at Record Store Day (analogue photos to come) and I went to several little gigs like The Crookes, traumahelikopter and Lookapony and friends.
The Crookes kinda blew me away. I just fell in love with them instantly. Their sound is so British and fifities like and they totally look the part. They're also really kind boys and I even bought their album on vinyl. I couldn't resist.


Summertime means music to me. And a lot of it.
