Back to School

even though i have no courses left to attend there's still this wonderful master thesis to write. i keep pushing it aside but i don't even know why. it would make me feel so much better to hand these pages in already. maybe a new laptop and some jazz music would do the trick. or maybe i just need to sit in our new apartment to finally start writing. let's not get ahead of ourselves. apartment first. master thesis second.

neoprene laptop case by marc by marc jacobs. a stylish laptop needs a stylish laptop case.

jazz café cd from zara home. jazz music is so soothing...

notepad from muji. i'll have to write down everything that pops into my mind.

sterling silver pen by tiffany & co. it's kind of oldschool to use a pen and a piece of paper for notes but i'm a visual person and it helps me to stay focused.

macbook air by apple. what can i say? windows, go to hell! haha.

[From: me] [To: me]

a girl needs to do what a girl needs to do! you want flowers for your birthday? buy them! you want to drink champagne on your special day? then who is keeping you from getting a bottle for yourself? when i went to new york last year i wanted to have a piece of jewelry from tiffany & co. so i went there and bought a bracelet instead of waiting for someone to get it for me. that's why i chose six presents for my twenty-sixth birthday that i would get for myself (if i had all that money... haha).

1. a classic louis vuitton bracelet. i've been thinking about this bracelet for some time... it's so simple, yet so sophisticated.

2. daniel wellington watch with an interchangable leather band. oh... i remember this black fossil watch my ex-boyfriend once gave me as a present. the daniel wellington watches are so different from my old fossil watch. they are more feminine and less rock'n'roll. in my opinion a watch needs to reflect your personality and my personality sure has changed a lot compared to 2008.

3. an elegant baseball cap by j. crew. ever since seeing chiara from the blonde salad with baseball caps, i've been drawn to these accessories again.

4. a white ipad mini. not necessary? maybe. but so convenient for online newspaper articles and instagram picture feeds, for ebooks and general internet surfing.

5. shiseido zen eau de parfum. 'everything zen, everything zen? i don't think so.' because i need a new perfume soon. thank god my babe showed me this eau de parfum two years ago. now i'm finally ready to buy and wear it.

6. a bottle of moët & chandon impérial champagne. what can i say about present no. six? keep calm and drink champagne!
