Nike Air Vortex: Debut with Mint

dress: Zara - sneakers: Nike Air Vortex - bikini: Forever21 - earrings: H&M - watch: c/o Swatch

Ah, finally I can introduce these pretty babies, the sneakers that ended up being "the ones", my own birthday gift to myself: these navy and sky blue Nike Air Vortexes. I ordered them at weare-shop.nl (free shipping!) and they arrived at my doorstep 3 days later. I love them aaaaall the way. Blue is basically a neutral in my wardrobe, and the combination of navy and light blue makes these perfect with both darker winter outfits and lighter summer garments. I know I go on and on about versatility of pieces, but I don't see the point in buying myself sneakers that cost me 85€ if I won't be able to wear them all the time. I can't recommend these enough!

I wanted to introduce my Air Vortex sneakers with an outfit that didn't upstage them, so I picked this cute, open back dress I got in the sales last year at Zara. The minty shade and pleating reminds me of tennis apparel, especially paired with the bright pink bikini and Nikes. Sport-chic is still going strong I guess! I felt very fresh and chic in this outfit, which was quite the feat since it was hot hot hot on this particular day (SUMMER, finally!).

A totally different matter: I've been changing my lay out over the past few days. Most notably a different banner, centred dates and post titles, a new lay out in my sidebar, new fonts and a signature to conclude every post. I'm still changing things here and there and going for a "test drive" so to speak, so any kind of feedback would be much appreciated! :)
