1 Top, 10 Outfits

Hii everyone!!!
A few months ago I posted an outfit from when I went out to dinner with my family. I got a great response, and got inspired for this post! I used the same top, and put together 10 outfits for a few different occasions. With each oufit, I will explain where and why I would wear it. Enjoy!!

I am wearing
H&M Jeans | Primark Fluffy socks
I would wear this outfit for casual. I would wear this when I don't have anything planned, and I am doing things around the house. I would also wear this when I go to friends, putting on a coat or vest. In summer I wear this with my red Vans, or with a bright coloured sneaker. 

HEMA leggings | Adidas Shoes | H&M Blazer | SIXX Necklace
This is a bit more formal, but not too much. Personally, I do not feel very comfortable when I have to 'dress to impress'. I would wear this to a birthday party for family or friends. I like to pair this with a low shoe, or with ankle boots. If you don't feel comfortable wearing leggings, you can also wear this with a dark washed jeans or black trousers.
H&M pants

I would wear this to school or when I am going out. I like wearing the top with a different colour than black (although this happens most of the time...) I would also wear the top inside of the pants, because the pants is a bit higher than normal. This makes your legs look a bit longer and slimmer :)


This is another casual outfit. I wear this when I go shopping. When I go shopping, I always make sure I wear multiple layers. This prevents me from having to wait in line for the dressings rooms, but still feeling comfortable for trying on clothes in the store.

H&M buisness Skirt
I would wear this to a jon interview. I would wear this for a serious job. I personally try to stay away from pairing gray with the top, but I think this combination works because the skirt is the eye catcher. This outfit is more mature, but when your dream job is on the line, looking more serious might be a good thing.
If you are not very confident about showing your legs (or slept in and forgot to shave) you can wear thights or a panty under. I would go for a skin toned panty with 60 denier, or a black one with 20 denier.

HEMA cardigan | American Appearal pants | Zign Sneakers with heels
This is more of a statement outfit. It's bold, and maybe a little risky. The risky thing about wearing this out is that people will look. Where I live, the pants are too high, and wearing it with a shirt tucked in, you are asking them to look at it. Which is exactly the reason why I bought it when I was in London :) I usually play it save with clothes, but have been trying to step out of my comfort zone. And let's not forget that the fabric is elastic, so it's pretty much a fancy pyjamapants.
I am not sure when I would wear this. Maybe a birthday or when I am going somewhere more stylish.

Jane Normann Skirt
I would also wear this to a job interview for a creative job. It's a 'formal' outfit, but it's not to adult-ish (great way to describe it!). I am only seventeen, so dressing for a serious occaison should also be fun! I would wear a longer blazer over it, falling just over the hip. Again, if you are not very confident about showing leg, you can wear this with a panty.

ONLY basic skirt. I do not know what happened to the bottom of the picture here...
I would wear this to work. We have a dress code, which is black with a bit white and it has to be professional, but still you. When it becomes colder outside, I am leaning more towards wearing leggings instead of jeans (If you are like me, there are leggings with fleece on the market).

GAP shorts | Primark leggings
I would wear this to a theme party. I would never wear this normally, but sometimes you have to be a bit crazy and pair things that don't really go together. Like a striped top and leggings with dots... You can wear this in summer without leggings or with a 20 denier panty in black.

Primark cardigan
This is totally a house outfit. A big knitted cardigan paired with comfortable leggings and top. I prefer wearing a top without sleeves when I wear a cardigan, so this top is perfect! You can wear this when you go out, but personally it's a bit too casual for me for going out.

As you can see, I am a very lazy person when it comes to clothing, and the most important thing to me is to wear what you are comfotable in wearing! Fashion to me is all about having fun, but still being yourself :)

What is your favourite outfit? Are you more of a casual kind of person or do you prefer a more classy look?

Love, Danielle

Summer 2013 | Lookbook

Another summer post! As this blog is about fashion and beauty, let's stick with that for this post :)
Last week, I took advantage of the amazing weather and shot a few looks I am wearing this summer. Enjoy!

Shirt - Primark & Short - Forever 21. As you can see in the picture,
the short folds very quickly, ironing only works on a high temperature. 

Top - HEMA & Skirt - Forever 21. I would wear this for anything.
The skirt is a thin fabric and flows very nicely in the wind. I wear this with a nice cardigan
or blazer. I tend to wear long necklaces with it, ending just above the skirt. 
Top - TopShop & Short - GAP. I like wearing crop tops they tend to be very thin,
which is nice in summer and are (most of the time) long enough to still look decent ;)
I would wear this to dinner, a nice top but not too hot. I also close all buttons and put on a necklace,
making the look a bit more fancy. Wearing a big, catchy ring will give it an extra 'fancy boost'
Sweater - H&M & Short - GAP. This is an outfit to wear later on the day, when it's a little colder.
The sweater is not very thick which makes it good for evening wear.
Dress - Forever 21. I like to wear this dress later on the day or when I'm going to the beach.
You can dress it up or just wear it like pictured. I like to wear this with a big short necklace and a
lot of bracelets. For daytime I pair it with sandals, at night with high heels.

London Haul | Forever 21, Next, TopShop, American Apparel, Gap, Pull & Bear

When you go to London, in my eyes, you can't not go shopping. I saved up my money, made a list of items I wanted to buy, and shopped till I dropped. (Which I did, at the end of the day) Below I posted the items I bought!




First stop: NEXT
I picked up this black t-shirt. The bottom of the shirt, neckline and ends of the sleeves have a little leather-look fringe, which makes it a little more classic :)


GAP
GAP had a sale!! 30% off of every article! (Normally, I wouldn't go inside of GAP stores because I feel like things are a bit too pricey for me, and some staff members are not my favorite, but the one on Oxford Street is the exception. I was able to walk around without being 'attacked' by staff so it was a good time :) ) I picked up these two shorts and ended paying less than I was supposed to!! I'm summer ready with these! (For the jeans short, you can pair it with every thing. The printed short can be paired with a bright basic)


PULL & BEAR 
I found this jumpsuit, made of a very thin fabric, feels really soft and comfy! What I really liked about this jumpsuit is the elastic band at the start of the short, and the open back. It shows all of the back, ending at the start of elastic (very open, i know!)


FOREVER 21



Last year, I fell in love with Forever 21, spending an amount of money that could not have been any better (£ 121,21) and couldn't wait to get back in there! Don't worry, I didn't spend that much money this time! 

TOPSHOP
When I was in TopShop last year, I couldn't find anything good for me. But regretted not getting anything when I was back home. For this trip, I promised myself I would buy something TopShop, even if it was just a nailpolish. Turned out they had plenty of stuff I liked this year!!! I bought the 'GEEK' crop top (can also be paired with both of the GAP shorts) and two bikini's :)


AMERICAN APPAREL
DISCO PANTS!!! I couldn't not go in there and try it on, seeing as most of the bloggers or people I look up to own one (or more). I have to admit, I was doubting buying it, because it is pricey for a pants. But I am happy I did because it is a really comfortable pair and it goes with a lot of things! (I can't say if it's worth it's price, but I'll let you guys know!)

Hope you all enjoyed the haul!

Love, Danielle
