a November Day in Amsterdam

Hi! Welcome back to a post on the blog that I know is long overdue. I want to say that I have a good explanation for why I disappeared for two months but honestly I don't. I feel like recently I have a love/hate relationship with anything internet and social media related and I was just busy with getting my sh*t together. Which honestly, aren't we all?

But jokes aside, I am back to some occasional blogging -no #blogmas this year since I am moving to London next month. Say what?- and I can't wait to share what else I have been up to in the last couple of weeks. Starting with my go-to outfit that I honestly wear all the time.

I was in Amsterdam last week to have a good bye brunch with one of my colleagues since I quit my job at Topshop (I wasn't lying when I said I really turned my life around) and thought it would be the perfect opportunity to share my love for my fluffy coats and kick flare jeans.

Starting with my well-loved blue leopard faux fur coat that I picked up for €20 at IJ-Hallen, a flea market in Amsterdam. It is my favourite coat and I like the fact that no one else has it. I used to have this H&M coat and I would run into people with the same coat on. That always made me cringe.

I paired that lovely coat with my rainbow jumper from Monki which I picked up in a sale when I was in Stockholm. The colours and glitter make me so happy and if I could point out a shirt that describes me it would be this. Although sometimes a black band tee passes that test too.
Next up, my Topshop Dree kick flares. I wear these all the time and thank god I ordered a new pair because I am going to rip these pretty soon. I have never ripped jeans before –with that I mean not in a cute knee way but right on the bum- and I hope to never experience that in my life.
To finish my 70s rainbow leopard look I wore my white Chelsea boots from Topshop. I got these on a buy one get one free sale and I wear them all the time. I also love these with a black vinyl skirt and the Monki jumper. Maybe not this time around but when it's a bit warmer that’s the most fab combo there is.

So what's to expect next? Lots of London content since I am moving there next month. More food, since all I do is eat and probably me rambling on about my grown up 9-5 work life, because even though my Instagram life looks glam, in real life it's definitely not.

Also if you read this and you are from London, please give me a shout so we can meet up, go for brunch and take cute insta photos. :)
