Shark Attack Loves ... // NikeLab x Olivier Rousteing

OlivierNike2
Give it to Olivier Rousteing and he'll turn it into gold. Ever since the prodigy took the lead at Balmain, he has been dressing the biggest celebrities non stop and also managed to squeeze a sold out Balmain x H&M collection in between. This time, Rousteing is collaborating with Nike / NikeLab and even though the collection isn't available yet, it is set to be a bestseller once again.

For the NikeLab collection, Rousteing worked with nothing but black and gold; the black because it's timeless and chic and the gold because it symbolizes victory. Being a big football lover, it was this particular sport that became the main focus for the collection.  One thing's for sure: football players never looked this good. In this post, I limited the images of the collection to my two favorite items. However, we all know that Olivier is extremely active on Instagram, so check out his Instagram account for tons of images or check out this video on the Nike website. 

What do you think about this collab? Sound off in the comment box below!
Meanwhile, you can find my two top items after the jump.

The NikeLab x Olivier Rousteing will be available on the Nike website and in selected NikeLab stores, starting from 2nd June 2016.

Review // MAC x Brooke Candy

MACxBrookeCandy2
I solemnly swear that MAC isn't paying me to write about their lipsticks, but I can't resist all their collabs. MAC and Brooke Candy are collaborating for the second time and I ordered some goodies online. Even though her collection goes from nail polishes to eyeliners, I 'only' got two lipsticks and a lip pencil. The two lipsticks I got are Witching Hour and Doowop and the lipliner is called Night Crawler.

To read more and see the lipsticks on my lips, click below.

Doowop and Witching Hour sell for € 21,50 and Night Crawler sells for € 17.
All info and prices available on the MAC website.
The MAC x Brooke Candy collection is still available online in Belgium.

Trend // Boxer Braids

Boxer Braids 1
I'm not one to follow the trends, but you know I'm a huge Kardashian / Jenner-fan (don't hate, okay?). So when I saw Kim and North flaunting their boxer braids on Instagram, I had to try them myself. Boxer braids are - hence the name - popular with female boxers when they're about to step in the ring and beat the shit out of somebody: no locks of hair clenched to your sweaty forehead or blocking your view and the braids look fierce as well.

There are various takes on this hairdo, but I decided to go for the classic boxer braids first (see above). Did I mention that you get a facelift for free? Getting the braids isn't painless, especially if they start pulling on those baby hairs, but I received so many compliments. Plus, it's the perfect alternative for those who'd like to try something different, but aren't willing to go drastic at once.

What do you think about this trend?

Review // MAC x Charlotte Olympia Lipsticks

CharlotteOlympiaxMAC1
Some of you might be tired of the MAC overdose on the blog, but I just can't help it. With every collaboration launched, they nail it once again. When I heard that designer Charlotte Olympia was up next to create a MAC make up collection, I knew it would be good. Trying to prevent myself from going bankrupt, I only purchased the lipsticks (even though her collection contains make up brushes, eyeliners, mascaras, nail polishes and much more); they are red and matte, what more do I need?

It's time to meet Leading Lady Red (top), Starlett Scarlet (middle) and Retro Rouge (bottom).
Which one is your favorite?

The MAC x Charlotte Olympia collection is still available online in some regions, so hurry if you want to get your hands on some goodies as well!
