Everything I'm wearing is from H&M! Had a pretty fun weekend, yesterday I went to see some bands and the rest of the weekend I worked quite a lot. It's good that I'm working a lot, cause otherwise I'd get bored and go shopping. Now I'm earning money on the time I'd usually be spending it.
Song of the day: Belle & Sebastian - Write About Love
I have some new things up on my press-page. A big interview with StyledOn.com and a streetstyle feature in Flavor Magazine (France). ♥
Also, it's almost the end of the month so I think it's a good time to take on some new sponsors. If anyone's interested, send me an e-mail for more details. Ads go for 20€ per month and I take anything that fits the style of my blog; Etsy, Ebay, webshop, blog... As long as I love what you do. Check out my current sponsors to get an idea of what I'm looking for.
I bought this dress at the Noordermarkt (big vintage market in Amsterdam) for only €5. I'm working hard on an Amsterdam-guide with nice shops and markets that you can take a look at if you're planning a trip to Amsterdam. So many people ask me for Amsterdam tips and it's hard to be really elaborate on every reply.
Lovers of analog photography should really take a look at my Flickr-friend Geneviève's website Inconnu // Unknown. It features amazing undiscovered talent in photography. Really inspirational, makes me want to shoot film more!
I'm preparing a really big romantic dinner for when Daniel comes home because tomorrow he's heading to Sweden to rehearse for the big Asian tour that EF is heading out on. I won't see him in three weeks. But we're used to not see each other for three weeks all the time so I think I'll manage. I just wish I was coming to Asia with him! I've never been.

Ah, it's really starting to look like spring. Now I just wish it felt like spring too. It's still quite cold. I'm longing for the days when I can just walk out without a coat.
Today my money came in again so I decided to spend some of it at Primark. I bought a new bikini! I've had the same bikini since I was 12 (2002 & 2010). Since then I haven't grown much and I haven't swum much either.
Also, I want your opinion on King Of Limbs. Personally, I like it but I think it needs some time to grow on me before I'll LOVE it. I like Lotus Flower, Codex and Give Up The Ghost most up to now.
On me: Zara shirt and skirt, Primark flats. On him: H&M shirt, WE sweater, Cheap Monday jeans and vintage shoes.I'm not really one for Valentine's, so I deliberately saved the lovey-dovey crap for a week later. Haha, no, it was actually a coincidence that we were wearing really matchy outfits and I thought it was too good not to share.
Song of the day: Animal Collective - In The Flowers (For the 5th time or so, just cause it's my favorite song in the world. Just perfect.)
Sorry, my long-skirt-phase must be boring you to death. I just think they're really great, they're comfy and stylish and really 70's-looking.
Today I finally bought tickets to Mogwai, wasn't sure if I could go at first but now we can and that makes me really happy. Nothing much else to share, maybe just a song that I think is really great:
Zara sweater, Moschino belt, Primark skirt, H&M shoes.

Wow, yesterday was amazing. Efterklang played with an orchestra and it was one of the most beautiful things I'd ever seen. I know some of you will hate me for this, but I didn't really go see the National. After Efterklang it just didn't make sense. #spoiled
The ever-so-talented Mr Owen Pallett. ♥
Efter Efterklang: red cheeks and glassy eyes.
Cross-linx is a traveling festival. Tonight they are in Eindhoven, tomorrow in Groningen and in Rotterdam on Sunday. There are still tickets for Groningen tomorrow, I would strongly recommend doing everything in your power to experience this. And if not, here is a little clip of Scandinavian Love. Excuse my retarded filming skills, I guess I was too excited for steady filming, focusing properly and starting at the beginning of the song.
Since Berlin there's been a heap of work waiting for me, so hardly any time for taking outfit-photos/blogging. Just boring life stuff today:
Yesterday we went to see Noah And The Whale. I liked it a lot more than I expected, I never gave them a chance cause I thought they were just another indiepop band, but they have some really good songs.
Tomorrow is the day I've been looking forward to for a long long time: I'm gonna see Efterklang, Owen Pallett and The National all on the same night.
We were just looking the last.fm event calendar and there's soooo much planned for this spring. Unfortunately also lots of things that are on the same day, but that's just a luxury-problem.
I'd like to announce that the randomly picked winner of my Beta Boutique giveaway is Bryce of Note To Self. Congratulations! And a big thank you to everyone who participated.
Now I'm back from Berlin, I'm exhausted but it was really fun. Here are some photo-impressions.
Tessie, Martha, Ellis and Anouk. Most of our girl-gang except for Paula. The six of us stayed in a dorm together for 3 nights. I wore a Primark shirt over a Modcloth dress, Topshop shoes. They had bratwurst-burgers. So German.
