Latest purchases!

Hello, dear readers!

It's been a while! I'm sad to say I've been a little uninspired lately when it comes to blogging. Many people use their blog to post pictures of themselves and their outfits and such, but I don't feel that comfortable with placing my face publicly on the internet too much. So I'm searching a bit for what I want to blog about, and what would be interesting for people to read about. Suggestions are welcome!

I did, however, create a simple watermark for my pictures, and I'll soon change the header of my blog! I want to bring some new life into this place.

That said, I wanted to show you my latest purchases. I've been shopping online at Zara.com, and stumbled upon some lovely sale items! I just had to place an order. I found a lovely blouse, and an awesome jacket. The items arrived yesterday, and I'm very happy with both of them! They had a massive discount, so they were a bargain!

I'd like to show you the blouse first. It's a very sheer and airy necktie blouse, which is very elegant and sophisticated. I wore it with my Moi-même-Moitié jeweled cross pendant, to give it an EGA inspired look. I really like how the blouse can be worn in either a dressy, or a casual way!


I only noticed after purchasing that the blouse is made out of mulberry silk. I'm not a very big fan of silk, which I mentioned in my previous post, but it does feel very soft and luxurious. I'll pay more attention to it the next time I order at Zara, though.

Next up is the jacket! I try to add more colour into my wardrobe, and when I saw this jacket I knew I had to buy it. Selecting a size was a bit troublesome, because Zara jackets tend to run small. But I decided to order it in my own size regardless, and thankfully it fits perfectly! Definitely wouldn't need a bigger size for this one.


I'm very happy with it, and I love the studs! The material is a very nice cotton and linen blend, and the color is a very bold red with an orange hue. I absolutely love it, and what I love even more is that it was discounted from €69,95 to €14,95!

I'm still searching for my own fashion style, because I like so many different things. I think this post really shows the two opposite sides of what I like. A studded biker jacket and a silk bowtie blouse? Two very different things, yet they perfectly suit my taste.
