We Wear: Leopard and Pi(e)


I know, it's been more than a week (GASP!) since our last post on Peaches & Peaches, but what can we say, life happened. Luckily (seeing the silver lining here, you guys), my plans for this Friday night got cancelled due to my sister getting ill and not being able to celebrate her birthday appropriately, ultimately giving me the chance to get shit/blog posts done. Although I have to confess I'd prefer sipping mojitos right about now. 

Shirt: 3suisses - High waisted denim, booties: Bershka - Beanie, necklace: H&M - Bag: Primark - Faux-fur coat: Sheinside 

This week has been a weird one for me, to say the least. Not the good kind of weird, but the really, really sucky, fist clenching, annoying kind. In addition to crappy events, I suddenly got struck by a winter dip, hitting me quite late but nevertheless very hard as I'm of this moment completely over winter.  Sure, it was all fun and games, seeing as a week ago I was still going on about 'No man, I'm not sick of winter , not bored with my winter wardrobe, not tired of bundling up when venturing outside'. This week however, all of the above were so true and more. I want springtime and summer and I want it right now! Fortunately, the sun has been rejoicing us with her company, but it is still frosty in the morning when I leave for work by foot, depriving me of the courage to face the day bare-ankled. What can I say, I'm no dare devil when it comes to feet heat.  

 



These pictures were taken in Maastricht in the Netherlands, where I had - honestly - the best pie in the history of pies at TaarT (very conveniently spotted on Dressing in Labels). Evidence below. I can totally recommend the 'Zoete Zonde', which gives you the chance to taste a selection of three finger licking pies. Oh lord, I'm drooling.

Also, all this talk about pies reminds me that tomorrow is Pi day. The scientist in me awakes at 10 PM on a Friday night.

 Currently listening to:
Social Distortion
Currently craving for (fashion wise or other):
It may not have gotten across, but summer and pie will suffice

What We Wear Wednesday: Snow leopard

Leopard faux fur: Nastygal - Jumper: Urban Outfitters - Skinnies, earrings: New Look - Sneakers: Vans - Scarf, bag: Zara - Mittens: h&m - Nailpolish - Hema 

Tadaaa! Change of scenery!

I decided it was time to take my outfit pictures elsewhere. Leave the safe boundaries of my garden, and go explore the world. So I took my camera, tripod and outfit out for a little stroll. Well, it was a 3 km walk... in my Vans... through the snow. I'm wearing NEON PINK Vans, because a part of me already believes it's spring and time for Groezrock, while the other part (the one in charge of the scarf and mittens) preserved my body from freezing to death. They cooperate well!

Fell in love with this leopard faux fur from Nastygal: it's furry, it's square and it has short sleeves! My other leopard coat is more of a .. well, coat instead of bomber jacket. So I was totally permitted to also buy this furry baby. 

The jumper is a sales buy from Urban Outfitters. Originally it cost fifty euros while I only paid twelve! It has pale pink cats on it. PALE PINK CATS! That's enough to go totally psychomaniac. That and the ridiculously lowered price. And no torn seams this time, double win!

When walking home I had to reassure a sheep I wasn't a REAL leopard but only wearing a faux fur coat, and that I wasn't going to have him for dinner. No really, it kept bleating and staring at me in disbelief (sheep always look like that) when I walked by. Should've taken a picture, damnit!

Something different now. Karolien and I like to randomly ramble crazy stuff when showing an outfit, but some of our friends have already admitted they never fully read what we say but immediately scroll to the pictures. We've also noticed some bloggers who don't write anything or only a couple of lines plain outfit. Personally we like to read the posts that show an effort to write something quirky and real instead of summing up what you're wearing. Sooo, are there just two types of bloggers/ readers? What do you guys do? You actually read or just look at the pictures? If no comments show up, that will say enough and I will shut up forever. Not.

Thanks in advance!
