simplicity is beauty

heyy ♥

Just like Leonardo Davinci once said; "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
Sometimes less is really more, and instead of using busy prints and popping colors, keeping it simple is the way to go.

(I do not own any of these photo's, i got them all from tumblr)

I just think a simple outfit sometimes can do so much more than all prints -prints are awesome though- and I love how simple things just have a certain calmness over them. A simple outfit can do as much as a peaceful ocean at night, it makes you calm and gives you room to think. 

Do you also like simple outfits or would you rather have more prints and colours?

My favorite stores

Hey guys! Today I was looking at some online shops and I realized how big my love is for some online stores, but also stores which are fun to go to and which just have amazing stuff, and I really wanted to share that with you!

first off: brandy melville, you guys must have heard from it. They get attention through social media like instagram and their photo's are really cool. They have the cutest clothes and a lot of signature tees which are really popular like the sadie moon tank or tees with famous quotes from movies, for example: "you can't sit with us." from mean girls. Overall, I think Brandy Melville is an amazing shop with a great concept and it's sad that I live in Holland so I can't order online and so I have to go to Amsterdam to check out Brandy.

2. top shop, this shop has the best clothes and they have a lot of celebrities shopping at their stores. Topshop is always really up to date with new trends and if you want to find a new trendy look, you can always find it at topshop! The prices aren't really cheap and some items can be really overpriced but they have amazing clothes and it's not only expensive clothes, the cheaper clothes they have are also very cute and fashionable. I was just looking at their site and they have really nice high waisted denim shorts at the moment, I can't wait for summer!

3. Primark, it's really sad Primark doesn't have an online store, because they are a-ma-zing! The prices are to die for and they always make sure to get the new trends and fashion styles, but for a completely price so you can go absolutely crazy and buy a lot of stuff for not that much money but still be in fashion! 

4. forever 21, I absolutely love forever 21 since I was in the USA 2 years ago, now we don't have a forever 21 in Holland and the shipping prices are ridiculous, I still can't stop myself from ordering something from their site sometimes. The clothing and accessories they have are all just a lot of fun and fashionable, and they have a lot of different styles and items, which I love. I've been loving their beach wear a lot lately, it's all really cute and fun and they really keep up with the upcoming trends! The apparel just really makes me want to go to the beach all day and watch cute boys surf, hang out with friends and get really tan.

Of course there's a lot more shops I absolutely love, but it would take way too long to show them all to you guys, since there are too many haha! I hope you guys like these shops as much as I do!

Is there a store you love which isn't on this list? Let me know, I'd love to check it out!

Love, Luca ♥

festival lovin'

Hey guys! Even though it's been raining all day today, I was really in the festival fever. Shorts, cropped tops, long nights and good music, love it! Flirty clothes, flower prints, lace and bags with fringes are all the rage.

The one festival I really want to go to is Coachella (duh!).
The music and all the festival outfits are amazing and lovely, and there's just hanging one big cloud of good vibes, oh how I would wish to have been there. Hopefully I'll get to experience it one day!

'




















A great example of someone with an amazing boho chic and flirty festival style is the amazing Vanessa Hudgens and as side kick her really good looking boyfriend Austin Butler. They both looked so chill and you could just feel the boho in all the pictures of them.

As we all know, Vanessa has always been into the boho style so she was really in place at Coachella. The outfit looks lovely, the shorts with the cropped top and the boots look amazing. She also really did good with  her accessories like the flower crown, the brown belt, the earrings, the necklaces and the amazing sunglasses (must have!). The best accessory is of course her boyfriend haha, I saw him at the tv-show The Carrie Diaries and fell completely in love with him! his outfit is also great, love the coloured pants and how they are rolled up, which adds a little bit more fun to the outfit! Overall, I just think Vanessa and Austin are a perfect couple with an amazing style and they belong at Coachella!
Here are some more pictures of the couple during the festival:
 



What do you guys think? What is your favourite festival look?

Love, Luca ♥
