i tried to make you see but don't wanna know

hello beautiful people and a happy international cat day!
(i should have thought of something cat-related for this post but i only had these photos left.. i'll see if i can at least find a photo of me and my cat, haha) 

whatever, here's another festival outfit! i didn't actually wear this to any festival though. it's just what i would call a festival outfit and if i go to any more festivals this year i'm probably going to wear this.

the title is a line from what became of the likely lads by the libertines, of course! one of the most amazing songs by one of the most amazing bands of all time, if you ask me. also, i love the video, it's so cute!

i'm wearing the top i've mentioned in THIS post, oh and i'm wearing it in THIS post, too. it's from the AFFLECK'S in manchester and i've cropped it. the shorts are diy-cropped and dyed as well, they're diesel and my mum got them at some outlet store. 

oh and i'm holding a canned beer because i was taking photos for a project in which i was supposed to represent germany so i thought beer was pretty german anyway and there's even a german flag on the can so yeah this is why i'm holding it, just in case you're wondering, haha. 

as always, if you like this look, a HYPE  would be sooo nice! i think lookbook changed something about the filter or so, since i get much less hypes.. and it's the same with my friend's lookbook accounts so i guess it's not just my looks not being as good as they used to, haha!

have you noticed that as well? or does anyone know anything about it?

earrings - i am 

pete doherty crop top - affleck's + diy

leather belt - my mum's 

jeans shorts - diesel + diy

boots - doc martens 

and as i promised, here's a picture of me and my cat, hehe! don't forget to listen to THIS today! 

XOXO 

ps.: me and my friends have just created a new tumblr, we post photos of cakes, muffins, cookies and just anything baking- and food related basically. a FOLLOW would be sooo amazing, we promise to always follow back!

I'M SORRY LOVE, I'LL HAVE TO TURN YOU DOWN

this song will always remind me of the hurricane festival 2011, the arctic monkeys were sooo amazing!

the photos were taken in the affleck's in manchester, one of the reasons I looove manchester to bits and go there at least once every time I'm in england (and can afford the train ticket)! they sell all kinds of alternative clothing, band shirts, second hand clothing, guitars, badges, beads and crafting stuff and really eeeeverything the indie and alternative heart could wish for!
this time I've bought a pete doherty shirt and some badges, I'll upload loads of looks with them soon!:)

as always, I'd really appreaciate some hypes on lookbook!;)

black leather jacket: mango 

rolling stones shirt: hmv

leopard jeans: zara

black chelsea boots: my sister's, don't know the brand

tote: waterstone's

WE LEFT BEFORE THE DUST HAD TIME TO SETTLE

I'm sooo sorry I haven't been posting anything in ages, I've been really busy but now I'm back!

the title is a lyric from this OLD SOUL SONG (FOR THE NEW WORLD). I'm totally into bright eyes at the moment, and I just love, love, LOVE this album! if you don't know it, listen to poison oak, which is an amazing song as well. I think it's about eliott smith and it's just so beautiful.. when I listened to it for the first time I actually cried. I love connor oberst's voice and lyrics.

whatever, let's come to the look! I took these photos in my room again, I know it's not an ideal setting for photos but it does the job if it had to be quick. having said that - hope you like it, enjoy! :)
and check my lookbook, I'd mean a lot!

 

back lace dress: h&m

cardigan: thrifted

tights: american apparel

boots: doc martens

IT'S SO RELIEVING TO KNOW THAT YOU'RE LEAVING

the title is from a nirvana song once again.. sorry if I'm boring you, I just LOVE nirvana so much!

and here's the look:

plaid shirt: h&m (men's section) 

t-shirt: h&m (men's section) 

belt: thrifted

what else is there to say.. I can't remember where I bought the tights.. oh, and that's my cat jelly belly in the photos!:)

I DIDN'T REALISE YOU WROTE SUCH BLOODY AWFUL POETRY

ladies and gentleman.. THE SMITHS! one of the coolest bands of all time, if you ask me.

and this is today's look:

as always, check my lookbook! I appeciate every hype! 

sweater: levi's

spray-painted jeans shorts: h&m 

doc martens

h&m band shirts... cool or not!?

today I saw a pretty awesome michael jackson tee at h&m, and I've really wanted a michael jackson tee for years since I'm a big fan.. I didn't buy it though because soon probably half of the school will be wearing the same shirt and that isn't cool, is it!?

the same thing happens all the time: nirvana, the stones, the doors, the clash, jimi hendrix ... I would rate all those among my favourite bands, and I did buy some of the shirts but only in the men's section because not a lot of girls at my school wear men's shirts and the boys don't shop at h&m a lot.

but the girls' shirts - which are awesome, really! - are always worn by half of the girls at my school, often even by like 6 graders who don't even know the mouth with the toung sticking out on their shirts is the logo of a band. this really makes me wish h&m wouldn't even sell these shirts.

that's a luxury problem, I know! but still... what do you think? do you wear the h&m band shirts? I'd love to hear (read!) your opinion on this topic!
