curves ahead: 2016

Hello loves.
The temperatures have been recognizably lower those past two months or so.
And after getting an annoying combination of influenza, tonsillitis and otitis media I'm even more into wrapping up in warm and cosy clothes than beforehand.
I know a lot of people perceive red (in combination with white) as a rather Christmas-sy thing than an autumn look. But as I am going for super warm and fluffy I got to cope with what my wardrobe carries and I'm loving every minute of wearing this look.
As always, this is a fake fur jacket (I am just adding it here as the pictures make it look surprisingly genuine).

black and white or so

Hey there!
Today's look is a black and white and gold themed outfit. Those of you knowing me personally and a bit longer, know that there was a time a barely wore anything else. Over the past (I don't know) years (?) I added more and more colors to my wardrobe which I love but every now and then I'm still all about black and white (especially in combination with gold accessories!).
This blazer used to be my grandmother's. After her death I saved it from being thrown away. It's an escada piece and must have been really expensive which is why I'll have it adjusted to my body for a better fit, soon (I googled what blazer's from the brands she owned blazers from cost today... between $1000-2500....like whaaat). All her blazers are a bit too tight on me but thank fashion for the trend of oversized clothing items. Otherwise I would've never be able to fit into her garments as she's been wearing a US size 2-6 (EU 34-38) throughout her whole adult life.

Welcome back.
I know I've been absent from the blog for quite some time, also this blog experienced some changes and will experience even more once I became friends with html.
I'm back with a few outfits and will be sharing those over the next few days or weeks.
Today I am starting by sharing this simple look. Those of you following me on Instagram may have heard that I am studying Fine Art in the Netherlands (I looove it). I am a first year student and as all of us, carrying a lot of stuff to the academy on a regular basis. It's not a rare thing carrying two bags so I felt like 'why not include that?'. So here's me in pastels (a rare sight!), casually.

Introducing Eyoma by Dearcurves

10:00 AM

Hello loves, good to welcome you back!
I'm excited to be sharing the following pictures with you today.
I've been eyeing these skirts for a while now and I fell head over heels for both, the eyoma patterned skirt and the eyoma full circle skirt in plain blue, the moment they arrived.

I just love everything about them: the cut, the fabric, the color/ colors, the quality
and how glorious I feel wearing them.
I was overjoyed finding out that these skirts don't just meet my expectations but also top them. I am very thankful for designers and seamstresses who know what they're doing and create such magic.
These skirts are perfection and so beautiful, just looking at them brightens my day and makes me happy.

Both skirts are currently on sale for half their original price! Ladies, gentlemen and gender non-confirming fellow humans, get yours while they're 50% off.

Photographing these beauties has been quite challenging though as the rain barely stopped pouring those past few weeks. Fortunately one day the rain stopped for about two hours what enabled me to take the pictures for the blog.
For some reason I hope you´ll like them. I already got a few ideas on how to style both skirts differently.

Hallo ihr Lieben.
Ich freue mich euch heute zwei Röcke vorstellen zu können.
Ehe die beiden "mein" wurden hatte ich sie bereits einige Zeit lang online betrachtet {ich sollte wohl sagen "angeschmachtet" :)}, ihr könnt euch mein Glück kaum vorstellen als sie geliefert wurden und all meine Hoffnungen und Erwartungen übertrafen.
Ohne euch zu sehr mit meiner Begeisterung einlullen zu wollen, die Röcke sind wirklich unglaublich schön. Die Qualität, der Schnitt und die Passform sind großartig, die Farbe/ Farben ist/ sind wunderschön {je nach Lichtintensität und Sonneneinfallswinkel variiert die Farbe einwenig was dem ganzen ein gewisses Extra verleiht}, sie sind schlichtweg auf den Punkt.
Es geschieht doch eher selten, dass ich von Kleidung derart begeistert bin. Meine von Herzen kommende Kaufempfehlung habt ihr! Im Moment sind die beiden Röcke und noch einige weitere Artikel um 50% reduziert, falls ihr also mit dem Gedanken spielt euch selbst einen zuzulegen, wartet nicht zu lange {von der Expertin auf dem Gebiet den richtigen Moment für den Kauf eines Kleidungsstücks zu verpassen :)}.

skirt - eyoma patterned skirt / bardot top - primark / pumps - zara / accessoires - mostly primark / purse - primark / lipstick - dm trend it up "ultra matte 030"

skirt - eyoma full circle skirt / top & necklace - h&m / rings & purse - primark / shoes - primark / lipstick - dm trend it up "ultra matte 035"

There is one thing I'd like to state here.
1/ These skirts are perfection no matter how you choose to wear them but I wanted them to look "extra", so I created a fitting Tutu that creates extra volume around the hips and in the back. Both skirts are just as beautiful without the Tutu underneath but with the Tutu underconstruction it's just 100% me.

Eines, das mir an der Stelle noch wichtig ist zu erwähnen:
1/ ich trage einen eigens für diese Röcke konzipierten Tutu Rock darunter welcher im Bereich der Hüften und des Pos für zusätzliches Volumen sorgt. Die Röcke sind auch ohne wunderschön, fallen aber etwas sanfter.

* the patterned Dearcurves skirt was gifted to me whilst I got the blue one for half its original price (same price as the current sale price), opinions are my own.

Introducing Zalando´s refreshed plus size department.

10:29 AM

Hi there,
I hope you´ve been doing well. I´m excited to be introducing you to Zalando.
Earlier this year, Zalando decided to refresh their plus-size department .
Zalando´s plus section got a new look and is now offering a variety of new items and brands.

Hallo ihr Lieben,
Ich freue mich euch heute folgende Looks vorstellen zu können.
Beide habe ich dank Zalandos frisch renovierter "Große Größen" -Abteilung gefunden.
Im Rahmen der Überarbeitung wurde dem Plus-Segment ein neuer Look verpasst und eine Vielzahl neuer Artikel und Marken aufgenommen.
Ich habe mich sehr über diese Zusammenarbeit gefreut da sie mir die Gelegenheit bot mich etwas mehr mit Zalando auseinander zu setzen, denn ich hatte Zalando, gerade im große Größen Bereich, bis vor Kurzem noch kaum auf dem Schirm.

Look no. 1

dress - Evans Clothing via Zalando / purse, shoes and rings - Primark / head wrap - vintage / lipstick - dm trend it up "ultra matte 035"

This dress is one of the best things ever. It´s so comfortable, fits true to size (I sized up ~3 sizes though, not because I needed to but because I wanted that "childhood dresses" feel) + it feels great on summer skin (really oh so great like can I please wear it everyday?!). The fabric is very light weight yet stretchy.

//yes, it´s been intentended to match the lgbtq.. pride colors with my head wrap (except the white of course) but I´m aware it´s difficult to tell.

Look no. 2

jumpsuit - CeHCe via Zalando / shoes - primark / lipstick - dm trend it up "ultra matte 070"

* all "Zalando" items were gifted to me, opinions are my own.

Wishing you the best! X
Much love!
