Jacket Repeat / shirt Zara / trousers Zara / bag Chanel / shoes ChanelLast week we paid a two-day visit to Paris to escape the rain in Holland. I love taking a walk through Paris and enjoying the atmosphere. Paris has a special place in my heart and I can't get enough of that city. We did some shopping on Rue St. Honoré. Checked the stock at Mulberry and did some browsing at Colette. Naturally, I had to pay a visit to Chanel at Rue Cambon. I spotted the cutest classic mini flap in patent leather, but since I'm on a Chanel shopping ban, I had to let this one go.
We ended the afternoon with a visit to the Eiffel tower and couldn't resist taking a funny picture...
Zara September 2010 Lookbook
Zara's webshop is finally online as of today! Unfortunately, they do not deliver to Holland yet. I do hope that will change very soon. Of course, I had to pay a visit to at least see what the webshop is like and it looks great.
I also browsed the rest of the site and saw that Zara has a new September lookbook and had to share a few favorite looks with you. Furthermore, it seems that Zara is also working on a (hard copy) magazine that will be released very soon. Hopefully, I can get my hands on a copy.
Well, as you may have noticed, I am a bit obsessed with Zara lately. I get like that with lots of things. :s It's just that I am trying to cut back on costs and Zara is a great way to keep up-to-date without burning a hole in my pocket! So be prepared to see many more outfits with Zara items in the future! :)
Coat Zara / shoes Zara / purse Chanel
I'm enjoying a holiday until the end of this week and am even spending less time behind my computer and just try to reload before the madness at work starts again. I need some extra energy for my business trip to Berlin this month. Really looking forward to meeting my trademark friends and colleagues again! :)
I still ow you the pictures we took in Paris and will sort them out tomorrow hopefully so that I can share those with you as well.
For now, here are some pictures we took yesterday when we paid a visit to the beautiful village Kinderdijk with me wearing my beloved new camel coat from Zara. If there's only one item you would like to purchase for Fall make sure it's a camel coat!
Shirt H&M / trousers Zara / shoes H&M
I love the simplicity of a basic white shirt! :)
I have been so busy these last couple of days. I went to Paris for a short city break to escape the bad weather in Holland. We stayed in this great arrondissement called St. Germain (6th), with the Jardin du Luxembourg just around the corner. Definitely worth a visit and I am planning to go back soon.
We strolled down the streets of Paris and did some shopping at Rue Saint Honoré (my favorite street in Paris). Will show you some pictures of my trip soon!
We drove back in time for my bff's wedding. It was great. Events like these remind me of what love is really about and even taught me something about the true values of friendship. It reminded me of this group on Facebook called "Don't worry about people in the past, there is a reason they didn't make it to your future". I guess sometimes, this is painfully true...
Blazer Zara / shirt H&M / Trousers Zara / Shoes Zara
I'm loving my new blazer and I think I will be wearing this one a lot! :)
I'm sorry for the lack of texts today! I had a bachelorette party yesterday for my bff who is getting married next weekend. We had so much fun and a bit too much to drink which has led to my lack of inspiration today.
Two more days of work before my short break starts! Yay! :D
Remember my post about the Chanel Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2010 Fashion Show? I really loved the colors the models were wearing on their lips and nails! Earlier I read that this nailpolish called Rouge Fatal would not hit the stores until October. You can imagine my surprise when I saw it in stores about two weeks ago. Naturally, it was a limited edition and I got the last bottle in that store. Can't believe I almost missed out on this one! I also purchased the 'matching' lipstick Rouge Coco in Rivoli which is indeed a perfect match with Rouge Fatal. I can totally see myself wearing this combo a lot this Fall and Winter!
Oh, I had such a busy day today. After my regular working day in the office I ran to the gym to have my regular workout. Hit the shower afterwards and rushed into town (the stores are open in my city until 9 pm on Thursday). I am so addicted to L'Occitane's Foot cream with shea butter and had to get a new one. This foot cream is absolutely the best there is! You should definitely try it, you'll love it!
I still had 30 min. left, so I decided to step inside Zara to see if they had any new stuff and got me something nice for Fall! Pics of what I got should be up within the next couple of weeks. :)
I normally don't wear lots of prints, but I just couldn't resist this cute jacket with poodles! It's really becoming one of my favorites jackets at the moment. Not really suitable to wear to, or in the office, so that's why I'm wearing it now while typing this! :D
