Pretty patterns

Another item that I really love this season are patterned pants! I love the beautiful bright colors mixed with lovely patterns. Wear them with a one color top to avoid to busy business on you. A real eyecatcher for this spring AND summer because you could also wear pretty patterned leggings combined with a longer top!

Must have jacket




Source: style.com

An item kept my special attention this week while I was shopping and checking out fashion on the internet...the LEATHER JACKET! I absolutely must have this AWESOME item!! I have to find an amazing fake one (real is toooo expensive) to be my lovely favourite item. It's hard because I'm a bit picky but while I was shopping I saw a few nice one's so there is hope. Now I only have to wait for pay day to come and meet my true jacket! The sleeveless one's are also very amazing(!) but I like the jacket the best with a great big collar on it like the one on the first photo! Can't wait, can't wait!

I will keep you updated and post it as soon as I find one!

Pure pale




 Source: style.com


I'm so happy that the spring is finally on the way, I can't say it enough! The fashion trends are also very pretty for this season. I absolutely love, well actually almost every trend, but the pale colors are really awesome! The soft tones are great and I believe quite neat but with a bit of a playful twist in it. I like the greeny and yellow pale tones the best cause they remind me of spring and summer the most.


I think it would be best to wear this style in a breezy way, like blouses, breezy skirts or shorts and match it with white or other pale colors. But it would be also very good with black to create a bit of tough but sweet outfit like wearing it with leather black pants. The breezy outfit has to look pure and neat in my way and by wearing accessories in also pale colors, the outfit stays pure! You can also let the color of the outfit come back in the accessories but a bit brighter to create a ton sur ton effect!


Thank you for reading! Stay tuned for the next Style Route post!

Spring is bag










Finally! The sun is on it's way and today we could enjoy already a bit of it. Great weather to shoot a few pictures for Style Route and to show my great bag. I got quite a few compliments about it and I am really happy with it so I had to show it. I love the color and the lovely small details on it. I'm really glad that I bought it and it was on sale so that made it even better!

A bit about me

Hi!

So it’s been a few days since I posted my last blog and I thought it was time for a second one. I would like to tell you a bit more about myself and why I started this blog. My idea for starting this blog was to create a sort of portfolio. Next year, when I’m coming back from a one year trip through Asia, Australia and New Zealand, I want to start studying fashion! I have done several studies before making this decision but fashion study always stayed in the back of my mind.

Everybody in my environment always told me to study fashion cause I’m always busy with fashion, but I was too scared to try it and for every fashion study you had to have a portfolio. Plus, "it’s easier said than done" I always said. I also didn’t have a portfolio so I thought that schools would never let me do the study. I guess I’m a bit of a ‘late bloomer’ when it comes to chosing a study and I always was a bit shy and scared for the unknown. But now I think I’m ready to discover the unknown.

I like fashion from when I was about sixteen/seventeen years old and never let it go ever since. I always want to know what the trends are, now even more than ever, and I love to watch which clothing everybody wears and create my own outfits. Driving my boyfriend crazy with that, but still he's very supportive. Because I haven’t had the education I don’t have to knowledge like a real fashion artist but that doesn’t stop me from creating my own things and ideas! I also think that everybody should have it’s own style, because  if everyone should wear the same style the world would be very boring. It's very important if you can express yourself and let people see what you like, instead of copying others.

I am really thrilled to finally start the blogging! I hope you will enjoy yourself reading it!
