Wall Tattoos
Wall tattoos seem to pop up in shops more and more and I absolutely love the idea of them. I think they just add to a room, making it possible to use the full space of a wall. Here's some examples:

Day By The Sea
I'm a big fan of grey as a colour for clothes, but only grey gets boring. Here's one way how to style it:

Product Review: Van Heumen Table Clock
Designer Sjoerd van Heumen came up with this "table clock" which, in my opinion, doesn't look all that great on a table- it does, however, look fantastic in a book case. Here's why:
The quality of this product (I have it in black, see first picture) isn't great, and looking at the price (€18,98 - $28), you understand why. The exterior is made of paper and glued together and not the most stable construct in the history of clocks. However, the clockwork works just fine and when this clock stands in the middle of books, it doesn't get a chance to become unglued.
Personally, I find the idea and design to be understated and intelligent, the clock works and it's cheap.

Introduction
When I woke up this morning, I didn't think "oh, let's start a blog!". The thought didn't even cross my mind.
Now, I'm not new to blogging, I have a large number of fashion, beauty and interior decoration/DIY blogs bookmarked and as I clicked through those bookmarks, the idea came to combine the two (that is, my love for blogging and my love for all things beauty, fashion, interior decoration, etc.) and thus, this blog was born.
A short introduction: This blog will be about the above mentioned things, though I am planning to insert reviews of other blogs and whatever catches my fancy, really. I, myself, am a twenty-year old law student living in the Netherlands and while this blog isn't going to be about me, personally, it will be heavily influenced by the things I enjoy.
I just hope you will enjoy it, too.
