Wednesday I'm in love

 

 

I had one outfit left from before I cut and ombre'd my hair so I had to post it before it would got really confusing. Don't worry, I didn't get extensions or dye my hair back. Although seeing these pictures makes me want to see what my ombre hair will look like in a few months, with longer hair! My hair looks so nice in these pics, I almost miss it.

Yes, I'm following the blogger-herd: I ordered that pretty little perfect peter pan babydoll dress off of ASOS after seeing approximately 99% of the blogosphere rock it. I can't find it on the ASOS site right now, but I ordered the petite version (as opposed to the normal fit) because it wasn't sold out yet in black/cream. It is quite short but not inappropriately so, so I'm glad I took the risk since I consider myself average rather than petite. When I first tried it on I was a bit iffy about it, not sure whether I loved it or not. But when I saw it in these pictures with my NEW LEOPARD LOAFERS I fell in love at second sight. I haven't told you about these shoes of mine yet: I bought them this week at Zara. I tried em on a few weeks ago but they were still quite expensive, and not really my size either. But when I saw them with my outfit I realized I had a STARTLING lack of leopardprint shoes in my life: they are the perfect way to make a perfectly normal outfit satisfyingly ridiculous. Mine remind me of old rich man slippers. COOL RITE 

I love em to bits! And they were only 19 euros! SCORE

They are HAIRY and shiz! And they look so expensive!

Boyfriend and I had a lovely meal of sushi like I told you guys we would. I'm absolutely stuffed: the restaurant is an all you can eat venue, and you can order the entire menu up to four times, but you have to eat everything you order (or pay extra). We over-ordered just slightly, but we ate everything because we hate food going to waste (and because it was SO good). For those in or near Antwerp: it's in the Keysercenter, just out of Antwerp Central station, past Wagamama on the right. And this time I DID remember to take pictures of the food. So I'm sorry for those on an empty stomach, but there's a nom picture overload up ahead.

middle one is a crab and corn sushi, one of my faves of the night

these sesame and garlic mushrooms were one of my faves too: I've never had mushrooms this succulent

Can you believe I'd never had dumplings before? I'm hooked.

teriyaki beef is SO GOOD

To end the night I wanted to be experimental: while my boring boyfriend picked vanilla ice cream, I went for green tea ice cream. It was delicious and the perfect way to cleanse the palate!

It is HELLA cold outside right now so I bundled up in layers, but that is tomorrow's outfit! Enjoy your evening, ladies and gents!

PS: watching Billy Elliot right now. It's not the greatest movie ever made, but I LOVE boys who dance ballet. Billy Elliot is hot. Even if he's like eleven years old. Does that make me a creep?

PS: forgot to tell you guys I was almost subtly mugged in the Sushi place! Some hobo sat down next to us, and it appears he was a regular since the waitress came to warn me to watch my purse. I placed it under my chair, with my feet on the strap, and before long I felt it sliding away. At first I just thought it was slouching down or something, but when I put it back in its place the hobo suddenly left. He had obviously been trying to nudge it from under my feet. Crazy, right? Poor dude didn't even get to eat sushi.

PPS: I also was a total klutz and put down my elbow straight in a plate of sliced duck (and sauce). My cardigan feels quite icky now.
