It's In The Hat

Element Eden recently send me a box of clothes and it's been a pleasure picking out a new outfit for work every morning.

Today I am wearing a floral top from Element Eden along with black tights and wedges heels which I found are super comfortable along with my favorite hat from H&M.

My Birthday is also coming up on the 2nd of July and I have been brainstorming ideas of what to do, being in a foreign country and all? Any ideas?

Young Hearts Magazine

While flicking through the endless amount of Internet pages sourcing photo's and inspiration for the magazine I work for I did stumbled upon Young Hearts Magazine.

You can read it online for free and it's filled with delicate feminine photography. This blogger started her very own online magazine and when she isn't busy working full time by day she is editing and blogging by night.

Last week I received some lovely clothes from Element Eden and it included this lovely dress & handbag! So stoked to have some new clothes to take with me to Europe. We leave on the 8th of July and come back on the 9th of August. I can hardly wait anymore.

I do still need to organize some accommodation and get my backpack ready. For those of you who don't know yet, me, my husband and Anna will be backpacking Italy, France & Spain over the summer for about a month. It will be our first big trip so we are really looking forward to it!

French Pink Mood Board

So many things I am inspired by at the moment it's hard to keep it all in a box and contained. Especially knowing that our trip to France is coming up it's hard to imagine what the Paris will look like. All I know is that visiting Europe for the first time has probably been one of my biggest dreams yet ! And knowing that we will be leaving on the 10th of July makes me sort of nervous not knowing what to expects and all.

 
1.  2.  3.  4.  5.

I am also looking into finding out about Fashion Week in Paris and Milan and finding dates for it. Does anybody have any information on it as I am a newbie at it? It really would be amazing to attend at least a show while we are backpacking through Europe.

If you do have info please send me an email on sonevz@gmail.com.

Band of Outsiders

By recent discovery some gorgeous photos of Michelle Williams getting cute for
Band of Outsiders. Could they have picked a better celebrity? She is one of my inspirations for cutting my hair into a pixie I have to admit.

These cute instax/polaroid pictures just reminds me of my recent trip to Greece, which reminds me that I am still yet to share those with you! Next up we me and my hubby and my sister-in-law are planning our next trip to France, Italy & Spain. So if your around the area give me a shout out, I love meeting other bloggers around the world.

A blurry haze

It's production week and I am designing my little fingers of around this time every month. However I had some fun events and meetings to attend.

We had my husband's Birthday Celebration which was great, he turned 32 this year and it was rather weird celebrating it in a foreign country, I had to admit it was a bit of a sad Birthday. Atleast he got his favorite cake for his Birthday which is carrot cake!

We also head out to the beach last weekend, I took some photo's, got very sunburned and enjoyed the Doha heat! Because baby you got to make the most while you are in 45 degree heat!

We got to book our tickets to Europe which is huge! We are planning on visiting Italy, France & Spain in a month. We will be leaving in July up until early August. We are head hunting backpacks and saving pennies. It's going to be a fun adventure which I can't wait for.

I also found this great song on uTube at the moment which I have kept on repeat for the last hour or so..check it out.

Polkadots & Poppy's

 (Dress: Mr Price, Hat: H&M, Necklace: Splash, Sunglasses: Splash) 

Visiting Athens was my highlight of the year, seeing the Acropolis and all the ancient Greek ruined blew my mind. This part of our trip was taken in Athens, Monastariki.

We strolled through the poppy fields, ate delicious food and drank ridiculously good wine. It was tourist central and the locals where so lovely and helpful. It's a city of culture and history filled with cute bakeries, shops, fresh fruit markets & breathtaking landscapes.
