Fashion journal avec Paris

Being in Paris in spring makes me appreciate the beautiful city even so much more. It's a city so iconic, so varied and alive. Paris is really big and I've always found it quite difficult to get a grip on all the districts, but everything is slowly starting to fall in place. I was there for presentations with a few other fun Dutch journalists and I enjoyed my whirlwind stay just as much as two weeks ago. To be honest, I already want to go back and stroll by the water and historic buildings with my boyfriend. But let's focus on our next Asia trip first!What are you looking at?1) Just a random shot in Amsterdam2) My favorite neighbourhood...

Review: Hard Candy Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer

I picked this up in the shade Light after reading rave reviews on other beauty blogs. Hard Candy, which used to be a high-end brand, is sold only at Wal-mart. Their products, from my experience, are gorgeous to look at but pretty hit or miss in terms of performance. Where does the Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer fall? Read on!Product:When I first went to use this, I applied WAY too much product. The tiniest dab is honestly all you need! This is great, because the product will last a long time. In fact, I think I have enough Glamoflauge to last me the rest of my natural born life. This concealer comes in only three shades (Light, Medium, and...

I love that lavender blonde...Lady Gaga Inspired Mani featuring Zoya Marley and Zoya Skye

I love that lavender blonde. The way she moves, the way she walks. I touch myself, can't get enough."- Lady Gaga in "So Happy I Could Die"I am a serious Lady Gaga fan, but I have been particularly obsessed this past week since her new album Born This Way was released. It is truly phenomenal, and has a killer 80's vibe that I am loving. Gaga as a performance artist and fashion icon is constantly evolving. Her sound and her aesthetic undergo continuous transformation, but there is a special soft spot in my Little Monster heart for her lavender blonde days. This picture epitomizes this look, with her beige pleather bow, lavender blazer and lips,...

Outfit: Ultraviolet

Silky tops in bright colors seem to become my wardrobe staple for spring. It all started with my neon green top (worn here) and last week I added this soft purple one from Modekungen (hard to resist on sale :P). The detail of the concealed buttons is something I personally love. Also... let me introduce you to my new Yves Saint Laurent clutch that I brought home from Paris last week. It feels so timeless and chic, and the size is just perfect for upcoming parties and events.Modekungen purple blousePaige jeansNew Look heelsNecklace made by meYves Saint Laurent clu...

Fierce Femme Face of the Day: Gilded Lids

Yesterday I went to a food festival and ate my face off. This is the look that I wore to the gluttonous event- bronze/gold lids, gleaming cheekbones, and a natural glossed lip. I wanted something fun and dramatic yet still suitable for day wear. I decided to focus the look on my eyes and keep a simple glossed lip so I wouldn't have to worry about smearing and reapplying my lipstick while eating sushi, and funnel cake, and gyros, and ribs, and pulled pork and....What I used: FaceBenefit "That Girl" Brightening Face Primer Mix of: Revlon ColorStay in Medium Beige, Tarte Smooth Clay Amazonian Clay Illuminating Serum, Stila Bronzing Tinted...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Zoya Faith

The last Buffy the Vampire Slayer mani I have for you is Zoya Faith. Zoya Faith is a metallic strawberry red with a subtle magenta duo chrome. In comparison to Zoya Buffy and Zoya Willow, I found the formula to be a little more runny and I had a slight problem with flooding. I am wearing three coats here, though two would have sufficed. Compared to the other to BTVS manis, this one is certainly the most vampy and I assumed it would be my favorite of the three. As it turns out I am more of a Buffy girl, both in terms of the character and the polish. Zoya Faith is lovely, but I don't think I love it. I was expecting the red to be deeper, or for...

Meet the Maurie & Eve lookbook

This new Maurie & Eve lookbook has me convinced that I can no longer rest in the field of wardrobe stuffing until I've added some mustard pieces. (And I was already so much in to that color) The clothes in this lookbook are grown up, yet sexy and easy and I'm loving everything about it. Even though I might think of adding some emerald green, grey, purple and orange, it's almost like my perfect wardrobe.(photo's via he...

May Favorites & Flunkies

Since Project 10 Pan I have really buckled down on my spontaneous spending and hauling. As such, I don't have a ton of favorites to share. Some are products I rediscovered gems in my preexisting collection, while others are new finds that I researched before purchasing. Unfortunately, a few I got a few flunkies this month, and all are products that I did not research before I threw them in my cart. I am slowly learning my lesson to be a conscious, educated consumer.First, the favs: Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat- I usually only have time to do my nails in the evening, and before this product I had problems with my polish denting as I slept....
