My 27th birthday celebration!

Dear readers,

Yep, that's right: I celebrated my birthday twice! Why not, right?! :P
This time it was for my friends. I celebrated it in a restaurant in Amsterdam. The food was SO good! Afterwards I went to a a techno party organized by Amsterdam Dance Event. The main dj there was Chris Liebing. It was so awesome! Unfortunately though, it was so so hot in there (it was as if I was dancing in a sauna, so I'm sure I dropped some weight in there :P) that every picture I took resulted in a foggy shot. Bummer!

Hope you like the photos!

Oh, I forgot to tell you what I got as birthday gifts...hmm, you know what: I'll make a photo of all of them and contribute a post to it! So much easier I think!

Love, Melissa

Maison Martin Margiela for H&M

Dear readers,

There are still so many items for sell from Anna Dello Russo's collaboration with H&M and we are already facing the upcoming collection of Maison Martin Margiela for H&M. This collection wil hit stores November 15 and I must say that for me this is one of the best collaborations - if not THE best collaboration - with H&M. See a preview below!

The reason why I say this is probably my favourite collaboration so far isn't because I fancy every item, it's because I find that this collection is really high-fashion and something you will probably not find in a regular H&M collection. My favourite items of this collection are the black jacket (photo 3) and all the accessories. Yours?

Love, Melissa
