Why You Should Always Dress Your Best

Hi,

Well, why should you always dress your best? Mimi Ikonn made last year a video about this subject. And we already watched it back then, but Femke saw it today again and she really wanted to share this with you. Here it is:


If you don't want to watch the whole video(which we still recommend you to do), she just says thet when you don't dress your best you don't feel like coming outside because you're feeling very ugly and lazy, but when you do dress your best you want to be seen and you will feel a lot prettier. So you should really think about this and try to dress your best everyday, because it will make a difference in your mood.

Spotted: Jessica Alba


Jessica Alba Makes Workwear Look Effortlessly Chic

Hi,

We spotted Jessica Alba wearing this casual but still very stylish outfit. She was wearing an oversized white shirt with an oversized white blazer. Very fashionable but yet also very comfy. And with that she was wearing these purple pants. Purple isn't really a trendy color, but it's something different than usual and that is always good.
Her bag is what we like the most about thise whole oufit. It's just so pretty! And again it's something different than the normal shoppers you see in black or brown.
Her sandals are very pretty too. And these kind of heels with laces are always very comfy.
And for accessoires she is just wearing pilot sunglasses and a silver necklace.
So this look is super comfy and stylish like we said many times in this post. It's perfect for work, school or to go shopping with. It is maybe a bit to warm for summer, but if you live near Belgium you will sure have some colder days too.

Do Acne Scars Go Away?

Hi,

When you struggle or struggled with acne you probably have asked yourself this question many times. We're going to tell you our experience with acne scars. Our acne scars always went away after a while. Which means that they sometimes stayed for 6 months (sometimes just 1 month), but they will always leave. We hope you're happy with this news! But you do need some patience, because some scars really need the time to heal. Meanwhile you should take good care of your skin to speed up this process. With that we mean cleaning your face every morning and evening, removing your makeup every night, protecting your face for the sun and moisturizing your skin.

How you can avoid acne scars: the only thing you can do is never squeeze out your pimples. Which sometimes is very hard not to do, but this is the main reason for acne scars. Sometimes your non-touched pimple can leave a scar too, so it's not only the squeezing that leaves a scar. But still you should stop doing that.

We hope we could give you a good answer for your question. :)

Loom Bands



Hi,

You've probably already seen the trend Loom Bands, the small elastics were you can make bracelets out of. They became a huge trend and are also very fun to make: perfect when you've got nothing to do this summer.
First we thought it was a little childish, but literally everybody has them! Also a lot of celebs fell in love with them for excample Kate Middleton (as you see in the picture above), Miley Cyrus and Harry Styles.

And if you've already have some looms but don't know how to get started, here are some video's that can be helpfull:



This first video is on how to make a normal fishtail bracelet, wich is very easy and not that difficult. The video is not such good quality, but it's explained very well and that's what matters the most.



This one is on haw to make a hexafishtail bracelet. It's way more difficult but it looks really cool.



This one looks really special! It's a dragon tail-bracelet and it's not that difficult to make. Also everyone has got a fork, you don't need anything special to make this.

Maia has bought a packet of looms too, but she hasn't made one yet (she's going to take them on vacation with her) but we'll post about it when she's made some. She bought glow-in-the-dark ones by the way. :)
She found hers in a toy store, but also Claire's sells them and you can find a lot on internet too.

Femke's Lookbook (Day 7)


Hi,

It's Femke again. And today I'm wearing this look. I love this shirt of Zara so much! And it goes perfect with this skirt of H&M. I actually bought this shirt especially to wear with this skirt, because there doesn't go much with this skirt. I bought them both last year, so I don't think you can buy it anymore. The skirt just cost € 3 which is so cheap! :o Well, I love these both clothing pieces together.
Again I'm wearing my flats of H&M. I know I wore them a lot this week, but they go with almost all my looks. And I also would prefer to wear Louboutin kind of shoes with this look, but since i don't have any these flats were the second best choice.
For accessoires I'm wearing my most favourite bracelet ever, which is this black leather wrap of Evelina Barry's brand Mintbarry. Than I'm also wearing some golden earing and two golden rings and I don't know where they come from, but it's all very basic, so I think you can easily find look-a-likes.
I'm posting this a bit early today, because I'm going to my sister. And I will stay there for 5 days. This look can be worn casually, but it's also perfect for a more special event or even to go clubbing with. Which is perfect, because my sister and I are maybe going to a free concert tonight.
Here are some detailed pictures for this look:








And that was my lookbook! I really enjoyed writing these chatty posts, maybe we'll do more of these soon. Oh no, I just wanted to say: Tumbs up if you want to see more of these chatty posts. I'm way to much into youtube videos as you may have noticed. But you can always leave a comment. ;) So bye guys, see you tomorrow with again a normal fashion post!

xoxo
