I'm back and it's Valentine's Day, so I guess 'love is in the air'!
I loved part one of 'Score!', but I have to say that part two is a tad more likeable. It has pictures and not just any pictures! Nooo, it has pictures of cute, amazing, gorgeous clothes I bought from Zara yesterday :)! (My bank account wants to kill me right now, but Thursday I'm working so you'll be just fine sweetie ;) I hope...)
Score number one: The mintgreen tanktop with lace back

This piece is amazing, it's flowy and the colour is so pretty for this spring & summer! I can imagine myself wearing it tucked into pants or a skirt, or even just as a cover-up over my bikini when I'm on vacation because it's actually quite long :) Anyways, I'm in love with this piece, it's simple yet elegant and I love (love, love, love, love, you can't imagine how freakin' much!) lace!
Score number two: the black asymmetrical dress

| detail of the high low element of the dress |
Ever since I tried on this gorgeous floral asymmetrical dress at Zara before Christmas (didn't have enough money at the time, plus I was a little too small for that particular dress) I have been obsessed (I have literally spent hours online searching for the perfect one!) with finding thé asymmetrical dress, you know the one that blows your off your feet... Am I going too far here ;p? Anyways, I had my mind set on a simple black dress, so the high-low element of the dress would really be like the 'showstealer'. Yesterday, I found this one! The asymmetry isn't that dramatic or exaggerated, but I loved the way it looked on me and I still looove the asymmetrical aspect of the dress, which is still obvious :) I kinda think I'll wear it to my birthday dinner with my boyfriend later this month :).
Score number three: the high low floral skirt
 |
| detail |
Well, what can I say? I love asymmetry I guess ;) I saw this skirt on the online Zara shop, fell hopelessly in love and decided I could not live without this skirt! When I walked into Zara, I was determined to find it. I was a woman on a mission (Katy B on a mission has nothing on me, let me tell you that!) and I actually kinda 'screamed' "SCOOORE!" when I located the skirt. I didn't even have to try it on to know that I would buy this lovely one, but I tried it on, fell even more in love and now I can't wait to wear it (really taking my love for clothes too far over here ;p)! While it's still chilly, I think I'll pair it with some chunky knits and my black leather jacket & when Spring/Summer sets in I'll pair it more 'romantically'. I actually think it'll look really cute with the mintgreen tank top from above :) I'm going to have so much fun in/with this skirt!
Score number four: The basic white t-shirt
It's really basic, but that was kinda the whole point. While watching 'old' episodes of Wendy's lookbook (she's so great!) I suddenly realized I didn't have a basic white Tee anymore after losing my old one, except for one that's really tight and I actually don't really like wearing those kind of tshirts (You go out for lunch or dinner, you eat a bit too much and suddenly it's like you're expecting your first child. I don't know about you, but I don't like my 'foodbabybump' showing). This one has a far more relaxed fit, a beautiful V-neck and really is an essential closet item. Autumn, Winter, Spring & Summer, you can wear it any season :) So yay for this item!
Score number five: the white t-shirt... with a twist! (Yeah I know, these 'Scores' just keep on coming don't they? Why didn't anyone tell me to stop buying things? Can't believe I'm not actually broke yet ;p)
From the front it seems like your ordinary slouchy white tshirt, but the back has a nice surprise!
Well hello beautiful cut-out details! Aren't you just gorgeous? White tshirts are so versatile and easy to combine and although I'm more for black as a colour, until like last year my closet was mainly existing out of black, grey and a few red pieces :p, you just can't live without a few white essentials! They just give you so much more options and they are great for summer!
These are my new treasures, I love every piece to death (creepy much?). Sadly, or depending on the way you look at it you could also say 'Yay more clothes!', I still have like a thousand more things on my wishlist so my bank account is going to hate me even more. But we'll just work a little more this semester and every little thing is gonna be alright (sing it with me! 'don't worry... about a thing...')
I also have an extra picture, these aren't really 'new', I bought them in my 'exams-are-over' shopping spree (I always come up with great reasons to go shopping, don't I?) but forgot to post them then. Three rings and a pair of earrings (one of my other current obsessions: the colours purple and teal)
What is your favorite item?
I hope you enjoyed this post, I know I at least enjoyed the 'back to school' shopping spree.
I'm sending you some Valentine's Day Love (is everyone wearing something red today ;p?)!
XO Aline
