shopping-outfit

One of the most important things regarding shopping is wearing comfortable clothes and shoes you are able to get in and out off quickly. This is an outfit I would wear when going shopping during fall/winter.

1. A.P.C. Jody sweater. Comfortable and warm. Easy to throw on.
2. Monki skinny jeans. So I can immediately see how a top or a pair of shoes will look with my daily jeans.
3. A.P.C. cross body bag. To keep your hands free at all time.
4. Givenchy boots. No laces or zippers. So no falling out of the dressing room while trying to keep your balance.
5. H&M white t-shirt. A great neutral basic when you want to try on blazers or cardigans.

PS. Writing this post made me think of all the make up stains I’ve encountered while shopping. Definitely adding this to my endless list of frustrations.

kusmi-tea

I don’t like coffee. There, I said it. Never have and never will. Luckily one of my co-workers feels the same way. She was the one to introduce me to Kusmi Tea. After she told me she ordered it all the way from Paris and it’s 100% natural with no artificial ingredients, I got curious. Must be good right? Well, it is. I tried it in Paris at Galeries Lafayette and I got instantly addicted, right then and there. Since I couldn’t decide on the flavor, my boyfriend bought me a gift set with several mini tins of their ‘must-have’ teas for my birthday.

In case you got curious yourself (those little cute tins, come on!), you can buy Kusmi Tea here. And it turns out us Dutchies no longer have to order it from Paris, but you can get it at De Bijenkorf and at &Klevering. It’s pretty expensive, but you’ve got to treat yourself every once in a while, right?
