EVENT + DIY | Cloud cushion with Veritas

Although I 've been promising my grandmother she can learn me how to stitch decently for about five years, I've never used a sewing machine. Shame on me, 'cause I would love to stitch and sew my own clothes.

Time to change that!

A few weeks ago, Veritas launched this supercute fabrics line where you can pick your favourite fabric to make you own pillows, purses, whatever you want to make. The print of the fabrics are designed to mix 'n match with several details like buttons, ribbons and so on, also available at Veritas.
The patterns, like this cloud, are made for everyone to DIY , as they are easy to stitch. Of course you can choose whatever pattern you want to make before stitching en filling the cushion. In about one hour (time flies when you're stitching) you have your own personalised cushion.

Tips and ideas can be found  here: Veritas stofjes
Now go and make some clouds to brighten up your room.

Thanks UPR for having me.

FOOD | favourite food

Current favourite appetizer. Simple and it takes you 2 minutes to 'make'(literally). And by that, it's also a small summary of my extensive, non excisting, cooking skills. But still, it's pretty damn good food. Needed: worlds best fruit, big shrimps and tons of salt and pepper. 
Reminds you of rain and rain and grey weather and oh did I already mention rain? Because that's what's summer stands for right? Seriously I need sun.

OUTFIT | Cropped and zipped









Confession N° 1: I didn't have any black heels, (whut?), until I found these at the thriftstore a while ago. Somehow they reminded me of COS shoes so I took them home. #score
Confession N° 2: Totally hooked on the jewelry of [Glaswaar]. #score
Confession N° 3: Besides the bag and Glaswaar jewelry, the whole outfit is thrifted. #score
Confession N° 4: The top has a zipper detail (luv it) which is cold as fuck when it's touching my belly.
Confession N° 5: Also, I'm really good at posing. Workin' the camera angles and shit.
