DIY Crochet Top

 Ph, Private

What you'll need: A top with crochet upper and down parts, scissors, needle, sewing machine, pins.

1. Fold the uni middle part under the crochet trimming at the bottom of the top.
2. Pin the crochet from the bottom part to the crochet from the top part. Mine needed some pleats at the front part, because the original top had a bit of an a-line.
3. Sew the bottom and top part together.
4. Use a needle to put the loose threads to the inside and tie off.
5. Cut off the additional fabric, the uni middle part, so just the two crochet parts will leave. The top I used is 100% silk, which is quit hard to sew in a straight line, so that's why I didn't cut the top in two pieces at first.
You can see the result in the first picture!

 Canvas Tote: Coming Soon | Bike: Thrifted and Gifted

An evening post, a bit late I know. Today I was wearing my new Acne parka which I bought on my shopping trip in Aarhus (Denmark) last week. As you can see, high summer is still not here, although it supposes to be. The weather has been a bit precarious lately, some sunshine, some showers, still no real summer in Holland. But I don't care, because I can wear new clothes I've bought for coming fall, so maybe we'll just have to skip the summer and go on to the fall-winter. Much more fun to dress up in layers and with coats, scarfs and too much accessories. Can't wait!

What are you looking at?
1. A beautiful lamp in a window in Aarhus. I think I will keep this in mind as dining table lamp. Maybe even DIY-able.
2. One of last weeks meals, roasted potatoes, entrecôte, roasted vegetables and cold water.
3. A beautiful beaded collar from Maison Scotch, gifted by Mart! Thank you darling!
4. Some photos from an outfit post from last week.
5. Another meal, delicious macaroni with courgette, tomatoes, paprika and aubergine with rosemary and oregano.
6. My favorite collar, I'm sure it will be a collar that I will wear a lot! Love the way it's wrapped in blotting paper with dandelions. The collar is beautiful made and is really heavy.

Acne & Vintage Lace

Fifties lace top: Vintage | Army Jacket: Thrifted | Shoes: Thrifted | Jeans: Acne | Lipstick: Diorific 024

Today's outfit, wearing my new Acne jeans which I told you about before. It's the Flex model, I really love that model. They have a slightly higher fit, which is really comfortable to wear. Great basic jeans if you ask me. I can also check off an item from my wishlist, namely a pair of Acne jeans.
Have a nice weekend!

Gestuz Lookbook Fall Winter

Above some photos from the Fall Winter lookbook from Gestuz. People who follow me know that I like Scandinavian brands, so the danish brand Gestuz is no exception. I love the different styles they show, you can shop for though leather items and sturdy jackets but you can also find feminine dresses en cozy knits. I especially like the sequinned blazer, the black woolen coat, the terracotta knitted dress and the short lace dress.

P.S. As I already announced, I've changed the lay-out of my blog. Do you like it? I think it's much more clean and sophisticated.

Dungarees

Dungarees: Cut-off Levi's | Top: Thrifted | Sandals: Zara | Sunnies: Random

27 Degrees Celsius. I was wearing my beloved dungarees, they are so comfortable. I find it really hard to find shorts with a proper fit, they are most of the time too short for me. Since I don't like to walk around with my butt peeking out from underneath my back-pockets, I always cut off jeans to create my own perfect length. I'm busy changing the lay-out of my blog, so in a couple of days you will see some changes.
