Currently on bed rest and unable to move much because of the pain, so I've been flickering through my camera roll and living vicariously through my own past. Prepare for another drop of photos, because I have been editing to keep my mind busy 🙈

Casual Style, Spring/Summer, Style · 3 August 2012

My new best wardrobe friend: Denim shirt

Wearing: AE outfitters Denim shirt – Oasis dress (via Asos) – Nine West flats – Old Navy bag – Pieces belt 

K and I went out for an evening walk outfit photos (We all know we don’t actually go for the walking part, right?) for the first time since I got back from my trip to the USA. It felt a little awkward after so long! Last week I ventured out to this spot on my own to practice a little with my newest camera lens. While doing so I got stung by either a wasp or a horsefly and my leg swell twice it’s size and I got a large bruise around the bite. My doctor says I’m allergic (No kidding, Sherlock!) and gave me the smelliest creme ever, haha. Too some people’s horror, I tweeted a photo of it after it happended, but I can asure you the smelly cream did it’s job and apart from an itchy spot my leg is fine now. Off to enjoy summer again!

I haven’t been around the bloggin’ block that much lately. After the exams and my time off my social life came back knocking on my door and I like it beeing back full time. With our crazy thunder-y Belgian weather we mostely have to stay in and watch old seasons of Bones and movies on Prime, whilest drinking fresh raspberries smoothies and having the obligated discussion on how hot/not hot Ryan Gosling is, but still I get a really summer-y feeling. 
Also, meet my new best friend. This denim fella plays so well with my dresses and skirts that I can’t stop wearing it. When I first met him on Broadway I wasn’t too sure, but I couldn’t get him out of my mind and  when we walked by and AE again a few days later I gave in and bought this overpriced beauty. I’m glad I did though, He’s a great cover up on a chilly evening and he’ll get me far into fall too! 
How’s everyone doing around here? 
xo, Nikki

    Oh, I'm sorry to hear that! I also tend to get "huge" spots when something bites me, even if it's a simple mosquito.
    Well, apart from that, the spot you discovered is really nice though! And I also love denim shirts, but I don't really wear mine very often… And your little yellow bag is so cute!

    Your glasses!!! I love them. 😀 They go SO well with your hair. Also, that denim shirt is so pretty – I have a few denim jackets that I love, yet rarely wear (I get hot so easily!) I'll need to break them out next time we're having a cold spell. 😀

    Love the denim shirt – I really like the AE one they have but in the darker wash as well. I've been eyeing that one up recently. I think it would be a great transition item into fall but you're right, it's so expensive for a shirt!

    Oo poor thing! Stay away from outfit pictures in meadows where there'll be more bugs!! I like the denim shirt; I have one too that I use as a jacket all summer long. It's perfect for throwing over your outfit once the sun goes down!

    Okay, okay, we were both just over at Just Take a Bow talking about leaving meaningful comments– but all I want to do is exclaim over how adorable you are! Your glasses! Your neon bag!

    On a (slightly less shallow?) note, high five on finding a shirt that works over this dress. I get the feeling the outfit would look a bit more formal without that completing piece: the denim keeps everything casual and perfectly summery. I want to try this, now!

    You have good reason to make that denim fella your new best friend. It would go great with everything! I love how you wore it over the stripes, and the outfit looks amazing with the pops of yellow. Awesome styling!

    Sabrina

    Oh my word, I'm so eager for fall to arrive! I can't wait to pull out my chambray button down once these 100 degree temps are gone. It's such a versatile piece…and you've worn it one of my fav ways, it's SO CHIC with stripes! Love those cute shoes too 🙂

    That is definitely a closet staple and if you use it a lot you'll definitely get your money's worth out of it.

    1. I cannot seem to find a denim/chambray shirt that I actually like. Gimme yours, haha.

    2. Yikes about the insect attack. I'm not allergic to those (yet) but my body freaks out when I get mosquito bites.

    3. Hopefully blogging doesn't continue to feel awkward!
