Blackbird singing in the dead of night

I wanted to wear my poncho, because seriously, what better item can you think of to wear when you’re all sick and icky feeling? It’s basically a blanket you wear all day long. Perfect, no? I had all the ways I’ve seen chictopians wear this H&M beauty in mind, and wanted to try something fresh (read Angiekje’s article on this fall favorite here ), so I wanted to up the girly and go for a romantic look. I grabbed my cute little swingy floral skirt, my flower headband and my dotted tights (one of the only reasons I don’t mind the weather going all crappy on me) and these cute little peeptoes. I still can’t get over the fact that I bought these pretties for only 7 euro.

 poncho, tights, headband: H&M

shoes: sac d'anvers

My other award was by miracle box, so I'm tagging all of the ladies above AND my friend Shana to do this 4 things thing too! :D Just answer the questions with four answers, link back to me and tag 4 other ladies! Here goes:

4 things in your handbag
- Lipstick. I have horribly dry lips and have totally been getting into wearing lipstick lately, I just love the glam it gives!
- Cellphone. I'm not even one of those girls that are all about texting and shiz, but if I forget my phone I fell naked and exposed. I need to be able to contact my boyfriend at ALL TIMES!
- Sunglasses. I hate having to squint when the sun gets bright, even in winter!
- A pen. Always. Be. Prepared.

4 things in my deskdrawer

I don't even have a deskdrawer, I just have this ratty old table with liquid stains all over. I'll just tell you what stuff is lying about.
- A letter to my brother in the USA that I need to get to the post office. It's been lying here for a week now. I'm such a procrastinator
- Sold out forever Catrice nailpolish. I love painting my nails, what can I say?
- My camera. Ready for duty.
- Staples. No idea what they're doing here, I don't think I've used them since May.

4 favorite things in my bedroom

- My bed
- My bottle of Viktor en Rolf's Flower Bomb
- My tall mirror, I bought it in March and it is the very first full body mirror I've had in my entire life and I love it
- My two Ikea clothing racks and everything that's on it

4 things I always wanted to do

I guess I'm not that big a dreamer? I have very normal goals. I guess these will do:
- Graduate from Uni
- Find a nice job
- Move abroad to a warmer climate
- Get married and stay with my boyfriend and be happy forever

4 things I like at the moment

- Midi/maxi skirts, you all probably know this already because I've been going on about it for weeks now
- Chili con carne, rediscovered after years of not eating it and now I make it almost every week
- Jersey Shore, Jwoww's my girl
- This X Factor audition, I've been listening to it several times the last few weeks, I just really love her cute voice and her accent and silly moves and faces. So so cute!

4 things you probably didn't know about me

- I have a huge soft spot for Kevins and redheads. I've been in love with 4 Kevins in my short life
- I sleep with socks on almost the year round
- I was in love with Mouth from The Goonies when I was 10 or something. I'm still a bit in love with him.
- I hate scampi and I'm not a big fan of chocolate based deserts.

4 songs I sing in the shower

Be my baby - The Ronettes
Kanye West - Let's have a toast for the douchebags
Lady Gaga - Paparazzi
Marina and the Diamonds - I am not a robot

This award accepting has been an awful lot of work sooooo I think I’m just going to roll myself into another blanket and read a book on the couch. Love y’all!
