OOTD: One Wish

Outfit Image

I can’t believe how fast this year is going. Half of the year is gone already. Looking at how fast the year is going makes me reflect on how the year has been for me so far. I am happy with where I am at, I have ticked off many things I wanted to achieve this 2016, but there is still a lot to be done, and with little time left, I better get cracking!

Outfit Post Image 2016

 

I wore this outfit some days ago. I had some errands to run and I wanted a smart but casual outfit, and this made sense to me. You may remember this top from the ‘What is in my Spring/Summer Bag’ post. This is my first time wearing it and I love it. It is so summery and it is a great piece to wear on a warm day. I will definitely be taking this top with me for the holidays.

It has been raining for days now, with some sunny spells in between. Doesn’t quite feel like summer anymore but doesn’t feel like autumn or spring either. It just feels blahhh.

My hay fever on the other hand, has gone from bad to HORRIBLE. My eyes are so sore from all the scratching, eye drops and ice blocks. I have been unable to wear my contact lenses for days. The only thing giving my eyes some relief are the ice blocks. I have tried all sorts, and nothing seems to be working. I can’t wait for this season to pass, so I can have my life back. If I had 1 wish, it will be for me to enjoy the summer season in my little countryside village without the hay fever. Is that too much to ask?

On the bright side, I have been loving Orange is the New Black Season 4 on Netflix. I have watched about 5 episodes now, and I am planning to binge watch the remaining episodes this week. This new season is funny and crazy, just like the previous seasons. Have you been watching? What do you think of the new season?

What is in my Spring/Summer Bag?

I see a lot of these ‘What is in your bag’ kind of posts on blogs and vlogs, but I have never written one until now. With the transition or supposed transition to spring, I feel inspired to share more weather appropriate blog posts, to get me in the mood for spring/summer. Winter went on for way too long.

Bonprix Summer Box Image

 

I had the pleasure of receiving a summer box from the lovely people at Bonprix, and I can’t wait to make the most of the contents. In the box were the following:

 

A Bonprix Floral Kaftan Top

This floral top, I will be making the most of once the weather gets warmer, and when next I go on holiday. Have a beach holiday planned in my head for the year, and I can picture myself rocking this beautiful Kaftan over a bikini or with a pair of leggings/shorts. Let’s see how the holiday plan goes…

 

Pineapple Cup

This is my first pineapple cup ever, and I like it. Perfect for summer and the holidays. A stylish way to stay hydrated. I love it!

 

Beach Ball

My kids are going to love chasing this ball about. Some fun outdoor time awaits us.

Flower Headband

I am loving this flower headband a lot. It looks amazing paired with the floral Kaftan. I am looking forward to rocking this beauty.

 

Sun Lotion

Sun Lotion is a necessity for all of us, so this pocket-size Nivea Sun Lotion SPF 30 will come in very handy.

 

SPF Lip Balm

I have started using the Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula Lip Balm SPF 15 already and I LOVE it. I love having lip balms on my bedside table because I use them quite a lot, and this mositurises my lips perfectly and smells amazing too.

 

Personalised Tote Bag

I am so into personalised items for my blog so it is no brainer, that this is my favourite item from the spring/summer box. I was still drooling over my personalised tshirt, only for this to arrive. I love the red and white, and can’t wait to take this beauty on holiday with me. I can picture myself stuffing this tote bag with all my holiday essentials.

What do you think of these items? What do you have in your spring/summer bag? Do tell in the comment section below, let’s chat.

Thanks for reading and have a good time wherever you are.
