Boater, Dots and Clogs

Ok today's pics aren't nearly as good as yesterday's pics, but the weather is sucky with rain and clouds and bad lighting so you'll just have to manage! :-D I'll throw in some foodporn to make up for it, deal?



I have nothing to say about this outfit :-D haha I feel so dumb, but I guess that's what exams do to a person! I've been trying to type the next sentence for about a minute but it just doesn't work so I'm going to leave you with one last  NOTIFICATION: Zelda: Skyward Sword was presented today at E3 2011 and I.AM.IN.LOVE. Any gamers among my readers? I'm a Nintendo girl all the way and Zelda is the best franchise in history so every new release (especially on their main consoles) always has me fawning and ooh-ing and ah-ing and it always feels like a milestone, like a tiny trip back to my childhood days of escapism, playing Ocarina of Time on a rainy Sunday. Sigh. I almost tear up when I here the tunes, I kid you not. That feeling of discovering a new world with real characters that need your help... Beats any kind of movie or book, because you are writing the story yourself. An experience that transcends everyday life.



Anyway, onto the foodporn! A simple pastasalad with grilled cherry tomatoes, pinenuts, rocket salad/arugula, beef, olives, pesto and garlic: easy and yummy!



dress, hat: H&M
belt: came with vintage dress
ring: Alex Monroe


Enjoy your evening!

  1. Het weer is supersucky en toch zie jij eruit als het licht van duizend zonnen (?). Hiermee bedoel ik dat je er prettyyyy uitziet, regenwolken verdwijnen spontaan als jij de straat opgaat! Einde van mijn poëtische tussenkomst. Doe zo verder Annebeth Bels!

  2. Ocarina of Time lovers represent! Roaming around the Lost Woods, scoring milk at Lon Lon Ranch, lake Hylia, those were the days :) Love the dress too!

  3. Omg, een vliegbeest in Zelda! Het ziet er zo geweldig uit! Ik wil het nu :-(. Zelda heeft zo'n grote plek in m'n hart dat het bijna pijn doet! Voedsel ziet er heel lekker uit!

  16. YAY food porn, a girl after my own heart. I've never seen a pasta salad made with beef before-- I'll have to try this out.

    Love the way you mixed the different polka dot patterns together and I have total shoe envy as per usual!

  17. I love your dress. It is so pretty! Also yay for gamers/bloggers :)

  18. Love your nailpolish. If you're looking for some crazy awesome designs without the work, look into Sally Hansen's products. I don't know of their availability where you live, but they're all over the place here. (And no, I don't represent, or get paid by, that company. This is just from one fashion lover to another.)

  19. @Leilani, It's what most Europeans call Spaghetti Bolognese. It's the closest thing to the American Meatball. Very yummy.

    And just out of curiosity, are you from Hawaii? Aloha if you are!

  24. 1. I love your nails, and your hat!
    2. Geeky camera question: do you have a remote and, if not, how have you gotten the camera to focus on you rather than the background when you are not actually there when you're focusing? Hehe. Also, it's funny, but in the first couple of pics you're so super clear compared to the background that it kind of looks like you've been photoshopped on. I'm still trying to figure out my camera half the time, so I'm just rambling.... ; )

  25. I don't think it looks "sucky" but I do think it looks a bit photoshopped. When Albs and I go for the blurred look we set the aperture really low and then fully extend the zoom. Not sure if your garden is to shallow for that though?

  26. Uhm, sorry ze maar ik vind de foto's nog steeds SUPER! hoe je dat voor elkaar krijgt, met zo'n slecht weer! Vette cameraaaa!

    Laatste foto is echt supercute en je schoentjes zijn ook erg schattig! Erg mooi kleedje: het staat je echt heel goed!

  28. A couple of months ago in my neighborhood, these techy guys hooked up old school Zelda onto a projector and they were playing outside at night on a huge brick building. I stared at them playing that game for 20 mins! haha!!

    Anywho, I think you look lovely! Those clogs are fabulous!

  49. Het weer is supersucky en toch zie jij eruit als het licht van duizend zonnen (?). Hiermee bedoel ik dat je er prettyyyy uitziet, regenwolken verdwijnen spontaan als jij de straat opgaat! Einde van mijn poëtische tussenkomst. Doe zo verder Annebeth Bels!
