Outfit // Golden Linings

Black and gold, my favorite combo. I stumbled upon this blouse during a shopping spree in Antwerp; I love how it's clean and simple, but with that extra touch. As for the wedges: they were hidden in the back of my closet for too long. They still make my heart beat a tad faster every time I take them out again.

I don't have much to say today. I've been the laziest couch potato for the past 3 days, catching up on Pretty Little Liars' most recent season to refresh my memory. The new episode is coming up and I'm so freaking excited! Who's with me?

Outfit // Simplicity

Some things I wanted to share with you:

- Here's a quick outfit post of what I wore today. Yes, I finally had the chance to wear the Maison Martin Margiela for H&M boots.

- Forget what I said in my previous post: these boots aren't that comfortable as I thought they were and they do hurt. 

- I wanted to keep everything as simple as possible, so the boots would get the attention they deserve. Even though it's fun from time to time, you don't always have to pull out the craziest outfits to look good.

- Sorry for my blouse and all the wrinkles. I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw these pictures. I was wearing the blouse for about an hour when we went out to shoot. I have no idea what I did to ruin it like this.

- I'm not feeling too well, which means: no close-ups. 

- Need to get a new lens / camera. I don't like the quality of my pictures at all lately. 

That's all.

New // Maison Martin Margiela For H&M Booties

The search is over! I've finally found the Maison Martin Margiela for H&M ankle boots with the see through heel in black. Most of you will already be sick of seeing them, but I just absolutely love them.

I wasn't able to wait in line for the launch, because I had to work. When I went to the H&M-store in Hasselt in the weekend, they were already sold out. I felt kinda bad, because it was the first time that I really wanted an item from a H&M-collaboration. Anyway, when my mom told me that she wanted to go to Maastricht this morning, I was secretly hoping that someone would've returned the boots for some reason. We entered the store, only to find out that there were still tons of items left, including the booties! 

I tried them on, took them for a walk around the store, decided they were comfortable enough - really, they're so easy to walk in - and took them home with me. Happy!

If you're looking for the boots and happen to be near Maastricht, do stop by. They have tons of stuff left!

Boots: MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA FOR H&M

Shark Attack's Favorites // Maison Martin Margiela For H&M

The highly anticipated collection by Maison Martin Margiela for H&M has been teasing us for a couple of days now and I must say that I'm very pleased with the results. That typical Margiela touch didn't get lost and the collection looks like it has come straight of the runway. 

There are two particular items that caught my eye: the shiny silver leggings and the burgundy boots with see through heels. The leggings are just pure rock 'n roll to me and the boots would look fab with a pair of leather trousers. I'm really thinking about waiting in line for once -- and getting up early to make sure I'm the first one. I never felt the urge to do so with the previous H&M-collections, but there's something about these items that's changing my mind. And the coat in the first picture is perfect to survive the Belgian winter, so I might get one of those too. 

Since Martin Margiela himself was born and raised in Genk (which is located in Limburg and hey, I'm from Limburg too), I'm reeeaaaallllyyyy hoping that the collection will be available in Genk or Hasselt. Most of the time, the H&M-collections are only sold in Antwerp and Brussels, which is a one hour drive from here. I think it's only fair that this collection is being sold here in Limburg too. Pretty please, H&M?

Are you going to wait in line for this collection?

Personal // Gifted And Wanted

I bet you've all heard about the Jean Paul Gaultier and Coca Cola Light collaboration by now and I must admit that I like this collaboration more that the Karl Lagerfeld one -- Don't worry Mr. Lagerfeld, I still find you a genius in every positive way possible. My first memory of Mr. Gaultier must have been when Madonna wore the famous cone bra / corset - designed by Gaultier, of course - during her Blond Ambition Tour in 1990. I was a tiny one-year-old back then, but the impact of that particular tour (and bra) should not be underestimated. I don't think that there's even one human being walking this surface who doesn't remember that piece of legendary lingerie.

Later on, I got to know Jean Paul Gaultier as one of the 'enfants terribles', shocking the fashion world by using older men, overweight women, over the top tattooed and pierced individuals as his models and as someone who wasn't afraid of playing with traditional gender roles. Aaah, and not to forget his world famous commercials, using amazingly cute (and tattooed, you know I love tattoos) sailor men as the center piece.

Being one of the Coca Cola Light Style Reporters, I had the honor to receive two collector items of the Jean Paul Gaultier for Coca Cola Light collaboration. These babies will definitely get the special place they deserve. Thank you, Coca Cola Light, for this amazing gift and thank you, Mr. Gaultier, for being yourself and for doing what you want in a world that's filled with criticism and narrow mindedness. 

Oh yeah, I've also added a major wish list in this post, so just click, click, click below to see what goodies I've bumped into while browsing on the web!
