Dahlia, oh Dahlia...

So a lot of you know I'm a huge fan of Dahlia. It's kind of my favourite brand for over a year now. The first time when I went to the Dahlia store in London was last year August. I bought way too much then. The second time I went to the Dahlia store was last April, when I was in London with school. And really, it's the best store to shop in. The atmosphere there is fantastic. The store has character.
This August I'm going to London again and I know where I'm going to. I'm planning to do a lot of shopping, because Dahlia never disappoints me with their designs. Dahlia represents my style and things I like. That girly style that's still feminine. Plus a lot of floral prints. After 3 year I'm still not bored of floral prints!

I've also got a little confession, I've got in total 26 dresses and playsuits from Dahlia. Yes, I'm aware of the fact that it's actually too much. But honestly, if I can afford it, why not?

And not to forget, Dahlia changed the website a few weeks ago and it looks amazingly good. I also really like the fact that models are showing the garments now. With styling tips!

Here are some (or a lot actually) outfit shots with my garments that I have from Dahlia

Apologies for the overload of photo's! I must say that I really enjoyed making this post. It's nice to go through all these photo's that I (and boyfriend sometimes) have made the past year.
I hope you enjoy this post and I promise to post a new outfit soon!
Good night everyone.

Edit:
Here's a new outfit with a Dahlia dress. I'm wearing this today!

Another break

Since I have vacation I'm enjoying every second of it. Even when I'm bored. I'm busy with doing nothing, watching Who's the boss (an old show I've recently discovered), sewing, designing dresses, skirts and shorts and enjoying time with my boyfriend (who's on holiday in England right now). But I noticed that now I have so many free time I don't want to spend it on making self timer photo's. So I'm having a little break until boyfriend gets back and is going play the roll of my favourite personal photographer. He's back Friday, so it won't be a long break.

So now you know I haven't suddenly disappeared from the earth! I'm not kidnapped by aliens. I'm just being lazy, hehe.

Enjoy your vacation everyone!

I will see you through the smoking flames

I don't have a lot to tell. I've made the Zara pants that I got smaller at the waist, because it was about 8 cm too big (that's what you get when you're sale shopping and you know how to adjust things with the sewingmachine). And I've bought 2 fabrics, some fabric paint and elastic for making 2 skirts with a Miu Miu print. So I've got something to do the next couple of days. So simple in compare to making blazers!
In the next few weeks I'm also planning to make about 5 dresses with the floral fabrics and lace I got during my internship.

Here's a new outfit. Again with the boaterhat. Big addiction, I'm telling you! And seriously, my hair is getting long! Especially in compare to last year around this time. I like it.

Little girl on the prairie

Today was incredibly hot. It was all about lying in the garden and going several times in the little bath we have standing in the garden. I also feel like my face got sunburned. Though my mom says that isn't the case. I think I'm going to put on a facial mask tonight and look like a lame lake monster.

Oh well, here's my outfit from last Sunday. It was way too hot to wear something like this today. A bikini was even to warm. And I got to show you my Zara purchases I did last Tuesday! Thank you sale (and new collection, hehe)!
