Did you know the Romans didn't called anything blue?

Wild beasts - Bed of nails (acoustic session) by mouxlaloulouda


For example when they would look up to the sky they would say something like what a beautiful bronze sky instead of calling the sky blue.

I spend last evening watching four hours of QI and that's the only fact i remembered.
The rest will come back to me when i least expect it, just wait for it.

Thursday Cherrelle came to Rotterdam for a little visit and we ended the day at the Store opening of Monki.
Fun crowd and atmosphere but we could only stay for one hour, because i had to go to work.
We missed out on a thrilling game of bingo and who knows what else!
At least they had cute lollipop cakes and delicous cookies we managed to grab before leaving


As a birthday present Cherrelle gave me a garlic squeezer (a little joke) and a one line a day journal.
I had such a Barney Stinson moment realizing people do read my blog even though it's a random blog.



page out of Keep Calm and Carry On book i bought in London a few weeks ago.
A page to remember.

Wednesday

Ding, ding, ding went the bell

Seeing the big Kasabian banner a few stops from the London Libary with their December date in 02 areana was a bit of a woah.
Switchblade smiles is an amazing song.
Album number four already and they are still good.

Taking a picture of

Run and jump in

SebastiAn - KINDERCUT


What a lovely day Wednesday i had.
Despite having to race to school, because i didn't hear my alarm clocks for the umpteen time.
After that i came home to get ready for Shrell 's arrival to Rotterdam for our little Rotterdam shopping trip.
You can probably guess it but I fell asleep and had to rush to meet her at Rotterdam central station.

When i arrived the train we needed was just ready to leave but the uber nice train conducteur saw me running so she waited and Shrell and me jumped into the train.
Destination: Primark!

Downside was that there wasn't really that much nice at Primark.
I ended up buying a pair of lovely camel peep toe wedges and a camel coloured handbag.
After Primark it was time for the following

Never before did i see the store that full but it was all good fun.
I even ended up winning a €20 voucher and bought a knee length skirt and metallic brown blazer with it.
Some of the people in the store were good style inspiration, even if i did see my second Amber Rose style copy of the day.
River Island should do things like this more often in Rotterdam, it was good fun.

Time and money is what i will be spending abroad, but only for 12 hours.
Saturday is my London shopping trip with mother dearest and three of my buddies.

Monday

Sale shopping






H&M Divided Exclusive leather jacket
€69.95 for €9.00
and Zara suede ankle shoes

Wishlist

I don't want to spend any money on clothes, shoes and other things i don't need until the summer really is in motion and i need new stuff.
That was going pretty well until i saw these buckled wedges and i really want to extend my wedge shoe collection...


Sunday

Some other pick me up purchases



I did some shopping this week!
Pure because i was bummed because of my paycheck (the ironey) and having to cutdown my concert list.
The organisation that goes over student founding (DUO) was late with processing my study changes and gave me have some extra cash!
I have to pay it back but i'm happy for now again so i'll worry about that later.
For now i like the high (Tihihi)

Chained pick me up!

Thursday was a shitty day.
I was told that the realistic and best thing to do was to quit school and try again in september.
I wasn't expecting that to happen for the second time but hey i'm a naive bunny and combine that with me being chaotic lil' old me isn't good.

Anyway after cooling down at my favourite place in the city the library, i wanted to spend some money.
Totally therapeutic of course so i called up Mex and we went to Primark.

The therapeutic part didn't really help because of the lack of things worth falling in love with or even liking.
I ended up buying two very practical things:
a top with some lace detailing and a strapless bra.
After that Mex wanted to look for nude pumps at Zara and there i saw the chained pick me up!

I love my new bag and after adding an old necklace i bought at Primark a while ago to the bag i love it even more!

Wednesday

Because it's cold outside


The snow just keeps on falling and my black chuck t's are getting a mouthfull of the white stuff.
After the lost week of sickness i went to Lille and didn't see the Zara boots i wanted.
Didn't see them in London either so i decided to carry on searching in Rotterdam.
Monday i finally found one precious shoe hidden high on display shelf and after searching through the pile of shoes on sale i found the other one in my size.
I could say i feel guilty towards the person who hid the boots, but i don't...sorry!

To match the shoes i found the following bag on sale bij H&M, i was waiting for the bag to enter the sale and was happy when it did!
