Why I should be the next Whatstrend blogger


 
Sometimes, things just happen to fall into place. It can show in small things, like not missing the train because it’s delayed or finding just enough money somewhere in your bag to buy ice-cream when the sun shows after a day of rain. It can be bigger, like finding the love of your life when you weren’t looking for love at all. Or stumbling upon a competition, that has your name written all over it. Say what now? Don’t worry, I’ll explain…
A few days ago, when I was doing my daily blog-reading, I found out COTTDS will no longer blog for Whatstrend (no worries, she’ll keep inspiring us on her own blog!) and that she has launched a competition, open to all bloggers out there. The prices? First, the amazing opportunity to blog for Whatstrend (OMG!). Second, a styling job for New Yorker. How frickin’ cool is that? I instantly knew that this was what I was searching for, a chance to show myself as a blogger and as a stylist!
But why should they pick me? Well, needless to say, I love fashion! I already have so much fun showing that to all of you on my daily blog. I focus on inspiring people, but still keep it accessible, affordable and playful. My aim is to keep my blog versatile and never stop improving it. It would be a dream come true to be a successful blogger and stylist and I’m not afraid to work as hard as I can to get there. So, why not me?

Me and my peplum








Peplum top H&M trend
Jeans Primark
Rings Lush jewelry, River Island & DIY
Clutch ZARA
Sunglasses Primark
Shoes Primark

This peplum top is one of my favorite items at the moment. I think I like it so much because it's minimalistic, but at the same time it's very detailed because of the structured fabric. I think the color works well with my skintone and the shape of the top does great things with my waist. Let's just hope the peplum-trend is here to stay, I'm not ready to say goodbye yet!

Page turner






In my final weeks as an intern and fashion assistant at ELLE, I got the chance to make my own shoppings for the June and July issues. Pretty amazing I must say, especially when I finally saw the end result! I am very proud of it and had to share it with you! I really hope this is just the beginning of my career in fashion magazines...

I am known for being a little bit cheesy. I am a sucker for romantic comedies, like to think I am Beyonce when I dance around in my appartment and when I throw a surprise party there has to be a very hysterical 'Surprise!' when the lights go on (I might even cry). But hey, what's wrong with all that? So to top all that, we did an outfit shoot in a field filled with tullips. OMG, how cheesy can it get? We didn't photograph the shoes, so you'll never know if I was wearing wooden shoes :)
