We Went: Rock Werchter 2015

Since I had taken so many pictures on the one day I attended the Rock Werchter festival, I thought I'd share some of them with you. Not in the very least because I REALLY liked my outfit - water melon top, hello? Also, I had such an incredibly fun day with my sisters: We shared more than a few laughs/beers, danced to Mumford and Sons, encountered a nice Confetti Boy who should date my sister. Too bad we don't know his name or anything, so if anybody knows a guy throwing around confetti at Rock Werchter, hit me up! (I will probably get killed for this) I was also extremely thrilled to watch Death Cab for Cutie perform once more. Watching Ben Gibbard give his best made me completely realize why I liked them so much in the past. I can't wait 'till November to go to their show at a more private and enclosed venue. 

Naturally I didn't take my decent camera with me, so all pictures are phone quality. But still, enjoy and submerge yourself in the hot Rock Werchter vibe! 

PS: You can catch a glimpse from my new tattoo, I'm so happy with it!

Hoegaarden Rosée for the win! 

This big blue bird is shitting on me

Sisters unite! 

Death Cab lovin'

Onto the next festival! Which festival will you guys attend this summer? 

What We Wear Wednesday: Festival Fringes

After a well-earned holiday in surfers paradise (read: San Sebastian and Mimizan) and while Lies covered my ass for this blog, it's my turn to do some of the hard work. Okay, let's face it, it's not really that hard work, but when you switch your surfboard for a desk , EVERYTHING seems like hard work.

Anyway, with a little bit of a delay, I present you the outfit I wore on Thursday on Rock Werchter a.k.a. the hottest day of all time (as you may have noticed, I have a thing for exaggerating). I decided to kind of combine the ubiquitous hippie look with some more rock items. I actually bought the top with the fringes to wear on the Groezrock festival, but the weather gods decided differently and spoiled my plans. And maybe I was indeed a bit too optimistic about the April weather and especially the April caprices ('Aprilse grillen'), but you never know in Belgium, right?

The outfit proved to be a great idea in the blistering heat of that Thursday the 28th of June: a cool, soft breeze right through my top would provide the oh so necessary cooling down. And you can never go wrong with shorts when you plan on jumping, screaming and moshing during your favorite band (that is in my case Blink 182 of course). I actually spent some time browsing the Interwebz for the perfect Stars and Stripes shorts, because I wanted them to look a bit worn-out and vintage with a high waist and not look too cheap with colours that are too bright. Luckily, I stumbled upon them when I was in Topshop in London. A bit overwhelmed by the enormous amounts of perfect clothing and the store in general, I managed to add this must have item to my wardrobe.


I'm also wearing my favourite shoes of all time, I simply love my Vans. So incredibly comfortable, versatile and again a necessary item if you plan on bouncing up and down in the audience. Also, no risk of leaving a shoe behind when somebody steps on your foot, a little something that might occur when one is wearing ballerinas. Or as Lies already pointed out in one of the previous posts, ballerinas aren't always a match made in heaven when walking around in them all day on some sandy festival grounds.

By the way, totally loving my Flamingo Pink hair, this time the colour really pulled through great!
