SUMMER IN THE CITY

Today was probably one of the last summer days, so I'm going to beach to enjoy the sunshine on its best way. It remind me of my holiday in Lanzarote a couple of weeks ago, that's why I'm posting this look today. 

While I moved from Tilburg (where I've studied) to Dordrecht, I found this cute little hippie purse which I got as a present from Lizzy vd Ligt a couple years ago when she was still dancing at the dance academy. 

This little purse took me downtown to memory-lane, so I kept looking for 'forgotten-items'. And the I found this dress (which I bought 5 or 6 years ago at the Mango), it gave me a Sex and the City feeling, I'm seeing Carrie Bradshaw walking around the city in this kind of dress during the summer, don't you agree. To keep it colorful, I combined it with one of my eye-catching items at the moment; my yellow bag from Allure. My dad gave it to me when we were in Singapore, I instantly fell in love with this bag; très chique! 

Well, I have to work on my tan now, and tonight I'm going to Vogue's Fashion Night Out in Amsterdam, so it's a very busy day for me; but o so fabulous! Enjoy the weather fashionista's xoxo Alyssa

SHOPPING IN SPAIN, LAZAROTE

Sorry I hadn't updated by blog so much during my holiday, the wireless internet sucks big time here. Today I had a little off-day, so I decided I didn't go to the beach and watch some Sex & the City episodes in bed instead. After a while I was so inspired by Carrie's style and wardrobe, I needed to go shopping. So I grabbed a cap and took my lazy butt to the city. There was a major sale going on, that's perfect because I was in that kind of mood to shop a lot, if you know what I mean. First stop was Zara, I got an amazing cute salmon pink dress for only 12 euro's! After a while my feet were killing me, now I finally understand why they call high heels 'killer-heels', so I had to buy flats or slippers. Then I walked in a sort of hipster store called 'Blanco' and saw these cute slippers, with a touch of hippie ;-) matched perfectly by my bag I bought earlier at Zara for 9 euro, but you're gonna see those items later on my blog, because it takes ages to upload a picture here.
 After I had a iced latte, I decided to walk back to the apartment just to clear my head and think about all the things I want to do with my life.

my pretty new dress from Zara, you likey?

PACKING MY SUITCASE FOR MY VACANTION

Sunday morning, very early (around 5 o'clock!!) I'm leaving the Netherlands for a week, to have a nice vacation at Lanzarote! But first we stay a night at the Mercure Hotel at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam.
And as usual I planned everyday before I leave, so I have to pack my suitcase now already. But, that's no problem for me, because I love it. It's easy girls, just make (new) outfits you want to wear and add some extra tops and shorts/skirts so you can combine other things to create new looks! Told you, piece of cake ;-) Look, I have plenty space enough, for my shoes of course! And... for all the things I want to buy in Spain.

I'm excited, I've made so many new Outfit's with 'old' clothing, because I'm very inspired by Sex&the'City lately. Just love the Carrie-look, styled by Pat Fields - it's just stunning! So when I don't know what to wear, I google Carrie Bradshaw and create a new look. Just wait and see, I'll put it on my blog during my holiday, don't worry.
For now I've got to pack my last things! Sleepwell dear fashionista's xoxo A.

TUTU-CHIC

After a couple amazing days at Terschelling I returned today in Amsterdam. I was so excited about everything, I wanted to wear my 'customized' tutu. A couple years ago I bought a white see-through petticoat in a Vintage store, and made a sort of tutu skirt out of it. Just like Carrie in Sex and the City. I already posted it a while ago, you can check this outfit here. But this time I combined my favorite Tutu-skirt with an denim blouse and a black-and-white striped shirt. To complete this look I'm wearing the Jimmy Choo's heels from H&M. What do you think? You limey? xoxo

SEX & THE CITY CHIC

Yesterday was a perfect summer day, the perfect opportunity to wear my red hat. I really I felt like a celebrity when I was walking around Tilburg. When I was re-organizing my wardrobe, I found this jumpsuit from Asos.com which I bought 4 years ago, it's so nice when you re-invent old clothing. It's a easy going look, but with the hat and the fierce red heels, it more edgy like something Carrie Bradshaw would wear in Sex and the City when she's out for a cosmopolitan. My friend Alisa dyed my hair last week, and I'm so happy with it! More blond at the ends, perfect for the summer! So... let the holiday begin! Cheers fashionista's, enjoy the nice weather with some drinks! Adios, xoxo A

PATRICIA FIELD ON CARRIE'S SEX AND THE CITY "TUTU"

INSIDE MY CLOSET

Last week someone asked me to look for a cool outfit as a costume. So I digged in my closet and found some old clothing like nice dresses, vintage shirts and... my Sex&the'City-skirt! I totally fell in love with it (again). It's like I re-invented my own Carrie-skirt.
My one and only problem is, I don't know how to wear it. But I'll figure out something...
