Blazers and pastel colors, my absolute obsessions.
I bought a classy black blazer last year and ever since I’ve been hooked. I own about six already and I don’t think this new pastel green one will be my last. I call this color green, but honestly, I have no clue whether it is green or blue. What do you think? Maybe it’s mint or turquoise? I really don’t know… I do know that I love it! I even considered buying the same one in yellow as well, but I thought that would be a bit extra (owning six blazers isn’t extra of course). Also, I don’t need any more pastel items, because I’m totally obsessed at the moment and I’ve been going a bit crazy buying them. You’ll see my favorite items in my upcoming posts!
My jeans are from Primark and I know opinions always differ about the brand. I definitely am one of those people who loves shopping there. Do NOT go there during the weekend, but on a quiet morning during the week, you can really find some treasures! They even have new sizing and for there jeans they do different lengths now too. Perfect for a tall girl like me!

Spring is finally here! I’m so happy and excited for the sunshine.
I’m definitely one of those people whose mood depends on the weather. As the sun starts to shine, the bright colors come out of my closet again! This sweater has been my favorite thing to wear for the last month. The color is stunning and I think it’s the perfect item for this time of the year. We all want to be wearing a cute skirt and a little top when the first rays of sunshine come out, but it isn’t that warm just yet. I have already seen some brave girls trying it, but they all seem to be freezing. So a nice sweater is perfect to transition into spring.  If you are looking to add some cute pieces to your wardrobe for the new season, buy a suit! A classy blazer and a pair of trousers will make for the best outfits for spring. I’ve seen so many cute ones already.
These are my favorite ones: this pair for Zara, these from Hallbauer and these very affordable ones from Stradivarius.
I love wearing a suit with a classy pair of boots or loafers, but to make this look a bit more casual I paired some cool sneakers with it. Also, just being honest, these sneakers are just really comfortable! I hope the ‘ugly’ or ‘big’ sneaker trend stays because my feet are loving it!

Hi! I could start this post by explaining where I’ve been and what I’ve been up to. Let’s not do that. I don’t want to bore you with excuses about how busy I’ve been. What I do want is to get back to our favorite topic here, fashion.
I didn’t think there could be a print that could be as popular as leopard print has been the last year or two, but I was wrong. Sooo wrong, snake print has been everywhere. You can’t walk into a store and not see snake print items. If you want to stock up on them is definitely worth checking out the sale at the moment. These pants, for example, are now on sale in Zara and they are great! Paired with a pair of sneakers and a nice knit, it makes the perfect outfit. Mine is from H&M and feels amazing. H&M has super affordable and soft knitwear at the moment. They make for great basics. I own so many of them and I still want more colors. You can never have enough basic knits, right? I’m just hoping they go in the sale soon.

We all do it, look on Instagram and admire all those pretty places that people are traveling to. Most of them are in Australia or on the Bahamas somewhere, but this beautiful place is just around the corner (if you live in Europe). It’s in the beautiful city of Valencia. I had the most amazing 10 day vacation with my boyfriend there!
There are stunning old buildings, but the city also has great new architecture like this amazing place, called l’Umbracle. If you are looking for a fun city trip or want a relaxing vacation, Valencia is perfect for both!
The weather was crazy the 10 days we were there. Most days it was 40 degrees and we were sweating profusely. The dress I’m wearing might look very hot, but it was actually very nice and light! It bought it last year on my vacation in Portugal in a little local boutique. I think white is just stunning on a hot summer day. It looks chic and effortless, but casual for any time of the day.

Hello Summer, hello good times!
I finished my last exam on Friday and now I am super excited for the next few months. It’s relaxation and vacation time! This weekend is the best way to start that off with this beautiful weather. We’ve had an amazing Spring full of sunshine. Let’s hope it continues, so I can keep wearing this super cute playsuit from Svrl Fashion.
When it’s really hot all I want to wear is comfortable things that are loose and light.
This playsuit is a perfect example of that. I put this little scarf from Louis Vuitton around my waist to add a bit of colour. I’ve had it for years, but little scarfs like this one are super cute to wear in so many ways. Put it around your waist, on a bag or even in your hair. A nice way to add colour like I did with this outfit.
As for the white accessoires, I live in white sneakers and I just got these to add to my collection. They are on sale at the moment if you like them, take a look here.
I hope to be posting more the upcoming moths, so keep an eye out for more!

After a buzzy month, I’m back with a new post. The last few weeks have been quite stressful and I didn’t have a lot of time for my blog. I did keep up my Instagram posts and if you follow me on there (@odemode_) you will definitely have seen these pants.
This outfit is a combination of all the basic, but trendy pieces that I’m loving at the moment. I can just put them on and I know I’ll feel good and like my outfit.
This striped shirt I’ve had for years now and I wear it very frequently. It’s a great basic and a stripe shirt is always trendy and doesn’t go out of style.
As for these pants, I got them for my birthday in March and I haven’t stopped wearing them ever since. Them are super comfy and make for a great basic with a twist. Everyone knows stripes on the sides of pants have been a really big trends. I have to admit, I can’t get enough. It’s such a good way to spice up a pair of pants! These are from Jade Twelve, a brand a had never heard of, but it’s great quality and they have really cute things.

Spring to me is all about bright colors and cute dresses.
This new addition to my wardrobe has to be my favorite! It seems like a lot of people like it just as much as me, because I have never received so many compliments on one item. That might have to do with the amazing leopards that are on it. I thought it was just the perfect kind of crazy, but still so cute. I bought it at one of my favorite boutiques in Amsterdam Noor and I can’t find it online. I do have a few very similar dresses here and here.
I did pair it with a more structured bag to make my look a bit more classy and dressed up. Of course it has cool down again, so as the spring heatwave disappeared,
I got out my boots and jacket again. This black faux leather jacket from Zare I’ve had for about three or four years and I still wear it every spring and summer. I wanted to invest in a real leather jacket that’s nice quality, but I still haven’t found one that can replace the one I have now. They don’t sell the same jacket anymore, but Zara does variations of a the same affordable black leather jacket each season.

Yes, Spring is finally here!
As the sun is slowly coming out, so are the spring fashion trends.
There are a few trends that really speak to me and that I’m excited to try out. Like the pastels, the suit/blazer trend, the wrap dress and many more. I started of with a safe trend though, the polka dot print. I bought these pants last year and I’ve worn them a lot, but especially this season I’ll be getting them out even more.
I’ve seen a lot of cute other items with the print. Here are some of my favorites: these pants or these, this skirt or this one, this dress or this one, this top and these shoes are amazing.
I’m also in love with this sweater. I got in from Les Lunettes and I love the sleeve with the snake print. It gives me Gucci vibes and who doesn’t like that! It’s on sale now and you can use my discount code ODEMODE10 on the website.
