Faux fur coats: Cozy, warm and fashionable


Je ziet ze overal in verschillende lengtes, kleuren, patronen en met of zonder mouwen. Ze zijn  lekker om te dragen in de herfst en op wat minder koude en regenachtige winterdagen. Het fijne aan deze jasjes is dat je ze op heel veel verschillende manieren kunt combineren.

Om een wat chiquere look te creĆ«ren is een wat kortere faux fur coat mooi op een (wat strakkere) jurk met sexy hakken. Wanneer je voor een wat stoerdere look wilt gaan,  staat een faux fur coat super leuk op een leather look jeans met biker boots of stoere hakken. Ook kan je de faux fur coats zonder mouwen over een leren jack dragen. Zo hoef je toch geen dik gevoerd winterjack aan, heb je het toch iets warmer dan met alleen een leren jackje en het ziet er ook nog eens super leuk uit.

Een faux fur item trekt veel aandacht. Daarom is het belangrijk wanneer je faux fur draagt, dat je het combineert met andere texturen en materialen, anders wordt de outfit een beetje te druk en too much. Hieronder zijn een aantal voorbeelden van faux fur looks.

Fall Musthaves


Hi! As you all know it's fall now. It's getting colder, the beautiful orange leaves come off the trees, time to sum up some fall musthaves!
Actually I'm more of a summer person, but I think fall is also oke, IF, it isn't too stormy.. For this post I have chosen a couple things which I think you can't miss during fall.

1. Furry coat. I'm searching for the perfect furry coat for a while now, but I haven't find it yet!
2. Yankee Candle. I really love scented candles, especially during fall and winter. Now I have a nice one from Ikea, but I have heard the Yankee Candles are amazing. These are not very popular here in Holland so I hope I can order one as a Christmas present of something via the internat.
3. Lovely and fluffy, you won't have cold feet with these ones on your feet!
4. Scarf from Bloved. I have this scarf myself and I think the colors are very nice.
5. Pickwick cinnamon tea. The taste is really a taste for cold weather, also like winter glow and autumn storm (also tastes of Pickwick tea). The Indian Chai of Lipton is also in my top 5!
6. Nice and warm sweater. This one is from H&M, but there are many other nice knits to wear when it's cold outside.
7. Hunter wellies. Some of them are ugly but there are also ones that are really cute, tough and awesome. Like this ones with a snake print on it. When it's rainy outside, you just put your Hunter wellies on and walk trough the puddles.
8. I Love... Body and hand lotion. I have wrote a review of this two week ago I think, if you're interesting, you can read it ;)! Especially when the weather gets colder, I want to take care of my skin. To prevent and care for a dry skin, I use the lotions of I Love.. My skin will become very smooth then.
9. Umbrella. You really need one of this in Holland... Unfortunately!
10. Blond Amsterdam mug. This is a mug from Blond Amsterdam, which is a very nice brand with all sorts of mugs, plates, cutlery and much more.
11. Timberlands. I have these boots myself, and I'm very happy with them. They are nice when it's rainy or cold and they can make my outfits really cool.
12. Poncho of Bloved. I really like poncho's or big scarves and thought this was a cute one by the brand Bloved.

“A woman's perfume tells more about her than her handwriting"

The man who quoted this is Christian Dior. I think he is right because the type of parfume a woman's wearing can be very different from another woman's parfume. Some women wear very heavy parfume but some of them wear sweet or fresh parfume. Luckily there are many many many types of parfume and all from different brands. Expensive, less expensive, in a cute beautiful bottle or just in a simple one, there is always a parfume which will fit you, you only have to find it.

I thought it would be nice to make a top 3 of the parfumes which I like the most. I am very critical as regards parfume. I think a parfume is soon too sweet or too heavy, so I don;t like a parfume easily. But I have made a top 3 with parfumes I have had myself, which I also very like.
1. La vies est belle (also the name of my blog haha). This is my latest parfume. It is a little bit of a sweet scent but not too sweet. I think this parfume is suitable for the winter, because there is a sort of warm scent in it, but also for the summer, because it's also a little bit fresh. The bottle it also very cute and beautiful. On this moment, la vie est belle is my favorite.

2. Emporio Armani. This one reminds me of a (little bit weird..) parfume for men. It isn't very sweet, almost not at all and it is really fresh. It's also not a very strong parfume, so this is my favorite in the summer. The bottle is very simple, but it reflects a bit how the parfume smells. Not over the top.

3. Ed Hardy. This parfume I have had from a friend of my mom. First I thought, when I looked at the bottle and stuff, that it would be a very very sweet heavy parfume which I won't like. Instead, this one is also very fresh and it is a little bit sweet. I think it's not a real parfume but more like an eau de toilette. The bottle is very busy with a lot of colours and stuff. That is tipical the Ed Hardy style.

What are you favorite parfumes? Did you like my top 3? Which parfume would you recommend to me?

Kim Kardashian, you're looks are flawless


Kim Kardashian is a real fashion woman with a stunning clothing style. She Always looks well dressed. Sometimes her looks are really cute and other times they are funky and cool. I really like her looks because my clothing style is also sometimes a little weird and cool and other times my style is more elegant or cute. On my TUMBLR page I post pics of her sometimes, of her great looks or funny pics of her and her family. I get a lot of insparation of this woman and I wish I have had her closet haha. In the picture above I picked out some looks which are cool, sexy, decent and elegant.

This week I will post an OOTD, it's shitty weather here in The Netherlands, so I hope it won't rain..
