Unif & JC, Come To Mama

Since I am addicted to Jacknastylovesme video's on youtube I am dying to get the Unif Hellbounds and the JC Human Aliens GoGo Boot.
But since I have limited myself to 1 shoe a month it's a no go.
The Jeffrey Campbell Big Lita is on my way but then I got this email van DollsKill.
Extended Clearance. Mmmmmm Should I take a peek? NO you won't, you got no money.
But then I did. And I almost fell of my chair. 
The UNIF Hellbounds were prices at 140. WTF almost $100 sale!!.
I am crazy if I don't get them, so I did. I just ordered OMG my heart is racing!!.
I was doubting between grey and indigo and went with the blue.

But then I had this conversation with stephanie of Jacknastylovesme on her fb page and she pointed out that the GoGo Boots also were on sale at Karmaloop. FUCK ME.
Also around $140.

Offcourse international shipping sucks ass but oh well. At least no one here in the Netherlands has shoes like that. 
You have to pay a price to look Fab.

So next months savings go to my creditcard. But totally worth it.

Losing Weight Equals New Wardrobe :)

This blog is usually filled with shoes, clothes and make-up all very materialistic and superficial things.
That's not  bad, we love to have things and we live in a consumer filled world.
But this blog is my personal outlet and I also want to talk about weight.
Especially losing weight.

My weight is always been an issue, even as a child I have been overweight.
When I moved out and lived on take away it just got worse and it got even worse when I moved to Boston Mass for school.
The American Portions are just rediculous and I said to myself " no way I'm going to eat that much" but without even noticing it, you adjust and things just hit the roof.

So being way way overweight something needs to change.
Last october I started to lose the weight and I feel great!
And the good thing is losing weight means a shrinking clothing size.
I went from a size 48 to a size 44 and my goal offcourse is size 36.

I always looked good in my opinion but now the clothing options are endless and better cheaper!
There is also a downside, I want to buy everything!
So losing weight also means going bankrupt.
Another thing I notice that walking in heels is so much easier!
I can walk miles in heels now so that's another downside. The Jeffrey Campbell Damsels need a place in my warderobe pffffffff

So to conclude: Losing weight equals a new Wardrobe but also equals bankruptcy but also equals Happiness :)

Below are some pieces I desperatly want to wear when I have reach my ideal size.
It just wouldn't look good on me now

Black Milk Aurora Sky
Black Milk Bones Legging
Black Milk Cathedral Bodycon Dress
Unif Crusade Dress

OMG PLATFORM SHOESSSSS Help me decide

I am such a freaking shoe wh*re, I can defenitly say I am addicted.
I have some ebay creepers on my way but I am getting the Hellbound itch.
I am way late on the bandwagon but come one!! who has $$ to buy them.
They are sooo expensive!

A good comparison are the Big Lita's. They have the same height but the look is very different.
The Hellbounds are tough, for girls you don't want to mess with while the Big Lita is more clean and sleek. Whether you like the Hellbounds or the Big Lita obvious has to do with taste and what you want to radiate.
I am more drawn to the Big Lita because I think the hellbounds are to chunky for me.
I like the girly feel of the Lita and they are also more practical.
Although both have a zipper, with the hellbounds you have to untie the top laces.
Not cool, whats the dealio with a zipper if you have to untie them anyway?
Also the Big Lita's are soooo much cheaper!!

Original retail price (taken from Solestruck
UNIF Hellbounds: $244.95
Jeffrey Campbell Big Lita: $189.95  

Ok so I found the Big Lita on sale at Nasty Gal for $131.6 + $ 15 shipping = $ 146,-
Thats aprox. 110 Euro!!!!!! effing Cheap! (no idea about costums)
Should I or shouldn't I?

OOTD | 7/1/2013 | Mix & Clash














Coat: Vintage | Dress: Beth Ditto by Evans | Cardigan : Vintage | Leggings: H&M | Flatforms: Neneh by Office | Cross earrings : Forever 21 | Ring: BuddhatoBuddha
 
Hey Hi,
Today I wanted to wear my Neneh flatform sneakers but I also wanted to wear my Beth Ditto dress from Evans.

The Beth Ditto dress has been a favourite of mine for years but since I lost some weight it does not fit well.
I want to enjoy the dress as long as I can!

Sequins and Leopard mmm they do not match. And you know what I don’t care, if I want to wear both I wear both!
Make your own style, don’t listen to the masses and wear what you want!

Antwerp Haul / Soldes

Forever 21: 3/4 sleeve jumper and a blouse

Love the sequin collar

Forever 21: 2 printed trousers
Urban outfitters: Cute flats

New look and Forever 21 earrings. Don't you just love the blue art deco style.

Last saturday me and a friend whent on a shopping spree in Antwerp.

Antwerp is a mega cool city in Belgium and only 45 minutes from where I live.
We went there on a mission because 2 times a year Belgium has Solden, the huge sale.
So we left around 10, super early for me for a saturday.

My friend was excited for the sale, I was excited for Urban Outfitters and Forever 21.
We don't have them in the Netherlands wich sucks.

First stop was New Look, where I bought a hat and some silver cross earrings.

Next stop was heaven, Forever 21.
Forever 21 is weird in sizes.
I can easly fit in a size 44 trousers but for the tops I am a plus size 2xl or 1 xl.
If I order something at asos I can fit easy in a "normal" top.
Anyway I digress.
I found some cool stuff, my friend who has a perfect figure and should not have a problem was shockingly not impressed and found nothing cool. Everything she liked was plus size!!
Its a upside down world.

Next stop Urban Outfitters.
When I lived in Boston this was my heaven, my favorite store but now.... is urban outfitters changed? where they always that expensive? I used to love the accessoires and shoe department but the one in Antwerp was a big Bust!
However I did found some cute ballerina's/loafers for only 12 euro's and a cute cat iphone cover for 6 euro's

I like Antwerp, compared to Dutch cities it's really nice,  wide streets for walking and shopping and Belgium people are really friendly.

But I am NEVER EVER going shopping when its the big Sale.
NO to SOLDEN for me.
The bargains where not that amazing to face the humongous masses of people and I will happenly pay extra to have a nice and calm shopping experience.

So internet shopping is my heaven for now.

Hello Everyone.

Like everyone in the world I have made a new years resolution.
Normaly I don't make those but it happend to be the end of the year when I decided that.

I was lying in bed being lazy, watching youtube and loving the video's from the people I am subribed on. And thought Man I miss doing reviews.

So my new years resolution is: Making youtube video's again!
