We Wear: Mermaid in silver pleated skirt and glitter sneakers

 

I'm wearing:

Jean Jacket: Pretty Little Things

Mermaid Crew patch: Pull & Bear

Hello Kitty patch, glitter socks: Veritas

Rainbow and Pour it Up patch, gold shell purse: Skinny Dip London

Dolphin pin: TITI and THE GERMAN KID

Starfish and strawberry pin: gift

Flower body, glitter platform sneakers, dusted pink velvet choker: Asos

Silver pleated skirt: Millenium via La Bottega

These past few weeks have all been about playing dress-up so it seems. First there was Halloween and I extended that vibe with my witchy outfit, followed by a 40 year Punk music inspired outfit (which I also actually wore "in real life" to attend a show starring Equal Idiots and Double Veterans). And today I'm demonstrating the outfit I wore to a party themed "under the sea" hosted by Karolien's former Chiro.

It very quickly became clear I would - again - wear this silver pleated skirt and my glitter platform sneakers. I only was not sure what to wear on top. I wanted something with shells so I bought this light blue colored crop top with shiny pink shells I found on Etsy only to find out it really did not look all that great on my silver skirt. The fit was too boxy and the color not perfectly pastelly blue. It does look nice with shorts though. So instead I wore my flowery body from Asos which has only debuted once before on this blog namely in our header :'D

It didn't bother me that much that I wasn't able to wear my shelly (haha shelly) crop top because I pimped my jean jacket with the most awesome patch ever made. Totes in love! Karolien has the same patch (ok, she had it first) so we really are the start of a mermaid CRU. Or crew, crew will do.

And did I not say I would buy a lot more velvet chokers? Well I actually haven't, I bought this the same time I bought the black one. BUT GOOD THING I DID BECAUSE, DAMN, HOW GOOD DOES THAT LOOK.

You may not notice but I actually made an effort to do some mermaidy make-up! I got my hands on the Urban Decay Moondust eye shadow palette ànd the Vice lipstick palette (thank you sister in law) so I just smeared my face with glitter. That's how it feels when I apply make-up: I have zero experience. I did base my eyeshadow smearing on Annebeth's review of the palette because she conveniently had a "grungy mermaid" look. Now please also teach me how to actually apply these things :D

P.S.: Yes I combined a gold purse with a silver skirt. Mermaids can do that.
P.S.S.: Yes, I'm wearing my socks inside out. Mermaids can be stupid.

We Wear: Lost without you

You may remember this sweater from one of the previous blog posts when we talked about SKM upping their game and a few months later, it is still one of my go to items. Casually with a pants or more preppy with a skirt and brogues, anything's possible with this beauty by Zoe Karssen! I really want to say I will take it with me on my holiday - which I will be leaving for TOMORROW - but let's get real, Seville with its 33° C begs for crop tops and mini skirts more than for a sweater. Sorry not sorry!

That being said, if you have ANY tips on what to visit, do, eat, hang out or drink in Seville, do share! I will be there for 5 heavenly days, together with my mom and sisters and I am more than looking forward to it. Hell, I even packed my bag already days in advance, which is very out of character for me. Seville, here I come!

We Wear: My Little Pony and a shell purse

Faux leather jacket: H&M // My Little Pony T-shirt: Ebay // Chevron Pencil Skirt: Traffic People via Paplou //
Glitter shoes: Asos // Shell purse: Skinny Dip London
P.S.: I'm sorry, I don't know why my pictures suddenly are bad. They look super crisp in my Lightroom :( 

It's been a while, but I'm back with a new blog post! You've seen this skirt before here but it's finally warm enough to wear it bare-legged. Actually it's barely warm enough but I'll take it. After the cold we experienced during Groezrock, anything above 10°C seems like a pretty good deal. And I seriously did have two very pretty outfits put together for Groez but that all went down the drain and covered in layers (and indeed also a rain coat and some mud).

Back to this outfit. Some time ago I decided I wanted / needed (whatever you prefer) a My Little Pony t-shirt. My search led me to Ebay and this shirt straight to my mail box. I only seem to wear it though while my hair is dyed pastel. Pony powers. It matches wonderfully with my shell purse which I actually bought to go with a tutu for a wedding. But I was never good at "keeping" things or clothes for special occassions. When I buy something, I want to wear it. So I already wore that specific combination to a housewarming and felt like a really out of place though really pretty mermaid. Goals achieved.

Did this outfit make up for our silence?
