Coral

I think nothing screams summer more that bright yellows and corals. And I have to say, it's about time summer actually came and stayed! Temperatures have been rising indeed but so have the water levels. It's been raining a lot I can tell you. Luckily, things are starting to look better as of this weekend. Having said that, with a sunny season, come not so sunny allergies... My hay fever is trying to get the best of me right now but as my birthday is fastly approaching, I'm putting all my effort in not to succumb to the drama that is called itchy eyes, constant sneezing and asthma :/

Now on to the dress. The dress is MS Mode's signature dress for the season and they even made Mattel's new curvy Barbie one! Super cute. The cut is super flattering on any body type I would say, and I do consider it a season musthave.

Oh Daisy!

Although I post a lot of dressy looks on my blog, I'm really a jeans kinda girl when it comes to my day to day looks. Finding a good pair can be a challenge at times and when I find a good one, I like to stock up on some. Nothing worse than your favorite pair of jeans ruined after a 1.000.000 wears and having to find a perfect replacement since your old pair is not available anymore, right? I think we can all agree that the no.1 struggle when finding plus sized jeans are jeans that are tight when trying them on, and saggy by the end of the day. At least, that is definitely something I don't like.

I own quite a few pairs, but there is always room for more. So when MS Mode challenged me to find my perfect pair from their shop I had to try. They have made it their mission to find every woman their perfect pair of jeans. Hear hear! Those of you that have been paying attention to my posted looks know that I love a good pair of boyfriend jeans so I opted for a destroyed pair (duh!), their "Daisy" jeans. They also sent me their "Magic" jeans, a super stretchy slim fit model.

The party season is here!

If you follow me on Snapchat, you would remember that I had 2 quite busy days last week: I flew up and down to Copenhagen (will share that in another post), went back to Amsterdam and spent a glorious day there, shooting a Christmas collection with 5 other bloggers (Els, Hermina, Saskia, Iris and Josine) for MS Mode.

I am so happy they decided to show part of their holiday collection on a group of every day, diverse women, with different body shapes and sizes. We're not models. We're not perfect (actually no one is) and it may help a lot of you to see the clothing on someone your own size. I had a great day, and the lovely girls at MS Mode catered to our every need. Thanks so much for having us! Now, when it comes to photoshoots, what I dislike most is that you're anxious to see the final results and sometimes it takes so long. But man, were these pictures fast! So today, I present you, the results of the shoot! Details on my dress further down in this post.
