✨ 30 ✨ flirty and thriving. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ✨ 30 ✨ flirty and thriving. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME 🥳

The past ten years have been a hot mess. Getting two degrees, our first appartment, my first job, moving 40km away from home, our first house, a burnout, a dog, a break-up, a tinder account, a new appartment and a fresh start all while travelling from pillar to post, maintaining a social life, get enough sleep, pay my bills and remember to make dinner before 10PM. Adulting is weird. Still not sure how I get to be unsupervised all the time. Or how I am staying alive. Soooo ready for those dirty thirties, baby. Bring it. 🎂🎁🎈🎉

Crossing that bridge to my thirties in 3...2... 🙃 But not before getting some old content out of the way that has been gathering dust on my phone for a year. Sorry 'bout that. Normal programming will resume shortly! 😊

Casual Style, Fall/Winter, Style · 17 December 2012

The worst bun in blogging history and that perfect plaid shirt

J.Crew shirt // Massimo Dutti skirt // C&A scarf // H&M tights // Footwork boots
When I uploaded these photos on my computer I smacked my head onto the keyboard. Doing my hair in a bun is never a good idea, I knew that. Still, I wanted to give it another try. Yeah, didn’t turn out that well. What is that!?

In my last post I mentioned that the good man (St. Nicholas, not Santa, FYI) came to visit our house on December 6th. Only this year he did not come from Spain bearing toys, mandarins and chocolates. No, This year he came from overseas and brought along in his jute bag this most perfect plaid shirt. I love its bright colors, the boyfriend fit and not to mention, it is perfect for mixing with different patterns and an array of colors. It’s my love of the season, and as J.Crew normally is a watch-and-wish-only store, you can imagine what happened when I was handed my present. Overly excited ladyyyy. I have practically been living in this flannel, and can’t wait for the next fall to wear it with my boyfriend jeans on a lazy day or over a fun printed dress. For this winter I’m thinking about pairing it with my LBD’s for a casual-fancy mix and to brighten up an all black outfit. Look at me, getting all excited about it again. It’s only a shirt, haha.
Oh, excuse me for my rattling writing today. I have a major deadline in two days and basically my mind keeps drifting off to that essay every two minutes. It’s one of those typical essays that you can keep tweaking, re-writing and editing if you want. It never feels finished. Anyway, my youngest sister just came home with a box off apple cake macarons. I have to go and try one. Call me nuts, but uuuh, I have never tasted a macaron that I actually liked…. Maybe these are the ones!

    Lovely colors! They go so well with the snow. Pop! And I think your hair looks lovely in a bun.

    Love this colourful outfit and the snow looks so good! It's very hot here this summer, jealous of your snow!

    I like your hair too I think it's cute! I tend to just throw my hair up any old way sometimes, you just get spared the sight of it as I only take front on photos haha 😉

    Ahaha I like your bun Nikki. It's cute. And that shirt is so stellar. I phoned my mom the other day and she told me she had gone shopping at J. Crew and that she wasn't really impressed. I almost died. #stylebloggermomproblems.

    Also I am loving the snow on the ground! I can't wait to go home and jump in all the snow there!

    you should get one of those top knot bun scrunchies, they sell them at CVS and they help you make the perfect bun!

    Dit is echt een superleuke outfit! Simpel, maar toch is er iets dat hem speciaal maakt. Ik denk de combinatie van blauw en oranje, die een beetje ongewoon is. Erg leuke outfit! 😀

2021... What. A. Year. A break-up in spring. My 2021... What. A. Year. 

A break-up in spring. My life in boxes in summer. Moving into my appartement and returning to my job full time after two years in fall. My first dates in winter. All while living between lockdowns and vaccinations. Four stormy seasons finally coming to an end.

Starting 2022 completely clueless, but with nothing but curiosity and a craving to find out where life will take me in the next 365 days. 

2022, LET'S DO THIS. 🙌

✨HAPPY NEW YEAR ✨
