Last day of summer

Did you guys enjoy your last day of summer vacation? I hope you did! 

Unfortunately, my school had other plans for me. Since I flunked my French exam last time, I had to retake it today so for me, today was my first day of school.  

I always laugh with images that say "me on the first day of school vs the rest of the year". But I must admit, my appearance in school depends on the way I feel. Let me show you my first-day-of-school-look.



I mean, I like the "messy hair don't care"-look! Put on some mascara and eyeliner and my blue eyes suddenly looked a lot better! And to add some colour I used Clinique's long lasting Wineberry lipstick. I'm quite addicted to it to be honest...


For my outfit I wanted to keep it a bit playful & what better way to start a new schoolyear than with some new clothes?! I found this long (& loose) grey tshirt at Clouds of fashion in Antwerp. I also bought my skirt there and to me, they are a perfect combo! Make sure to visit their webshop before I buy everything (http://www.cloudsoffashion.be). Also wearing my Lokai bracelet & Michael Kors watch. 


And what do you think of my new sneakers from SPM? Found them at a local shoestore. Had my doubts about the grey sparkles or rosé ones but I think I made a good choice!



Last but not least I want to tell you something about my Lokai bracelet which I mentioned before. I ordered mine about a year ago on their website. Shipping costs were quite expensive but I really like the idea behind the bracelet. The white bead contains water from the Mt. Everest which is the highest point on earth. The black bead contains mud from the Dead Sea which is the lowest point on earth. The whole idea behind this bracelet is that you have to stay humble during good moments in your life and that you have to stay positive in its lows. In other words, to live a balanced life.

Now that everything is said, I have to go back to my study-mode. 

Laterzz, Charis x

SUN(NY) DAYS

Did someone say 30°C? 

Oh yes they did! I love this weather but I had to study today. Luckily I found myself some time to bring my nephew a visit and guess what's in his backyard...

 
 I really want to tell you something about the bikinis I wear because I have "busty girl problems" so not all bikinis fit me. It's hard to find a bikini that is pretty, not that expensive and gives good support. But I found a brand that has it all!

Sunglasses: Gucci

I'm talking about Calzedonia. I noticed the shop when I was in Bordeaux. I tried one on, wasn't convinced at first, until I got home... So, I looked up if I could order it online, but I found out that there was something even better, a Calzedonia shop nearby. I really liked their collection but I only bought one because I wanted to see if they could really give good support. And they did! 


 

It didn't take me a long time before I bought my second, third, fourth,... bikini from the brand! Honestly, I am soooo happy that I found them. I'm in love with the way they fit and with all the joyfull colours they put in their collection. And to top it all off, they even have sales up to 50%. 

Now tell me, why are bikinis a busty girl problem again???

Peace.

Studying with a moment of excitement.

Hey guys, 

Do you know the feeling? You feel like nothing can go wrong because the weather is good, you don't have to work, no drama but then you realise you still have to study for your exam on Monday. Seems like Saturdaynights aren't only for parties...

BUT I can't seem to get my mind of the amazing shoes I bought this week! You see, everyone is wearing Adidas classic superstars & to be honest, I love them too. But I'm only human and I'd rather have something that no one else has. I set my sight on these Adidas classic superstars with velcro. Too bad that they only have them for children so I pushed myself in a size 35 when I actually have a 38. 

 Tshirt & jacket: Clouds of fashion
Pants: Zara
Sneakers: Adidas

I know it's funny to look at, especially when you know that the girl next to me is wearing a size 34. She's 10 years old by the way.

Sooo I was wandering trough the internet searching for the perfect Adidas sneakers & guess what, I FOUND THEM! Apparently, Topshop & Adidas worked together for these 80's inspired Adidas superstars & I am in love!



I think it's quite obvious that I ordered them immediately! But now I wonder, how can I concentrate on studying while I'm waiting for these babies to be delivered! 

To be continued (& I hope very soon)
