Business Casual Chic and some First Day of Work Advices



New Job New dress code… To look a little bit more chic I had to have some new tops and some cardigans. I always say, a jacket makes an outfit look complete and you really do look dressed… In the office it is not that important to wear a blazer or a suit, but to have one in your closet is not a bad option.

But I did not just get new clothes I also got some necessities… Let’s start with the necessities


Something to take notes with is a very important point. You can write things to remember in it, like where to park or where you have to go the next day.
A calendar is also very handy. You can write upcoming events in it or birthdays, for example (obviously hahah). My calendar is a notebook from TKMaxx and I converted it to calendar. Saved £5.
Use an extra notebook to write down how to work programs or how you log into your computer (you can get them from around 30p). 

Also handy is some chewing gum or some mints :)

Some new shampoo to try is the Herbal Essences pure:renew. It was new in stock and the bottle locked fantastic so I had to try it :). I will report back how I like it. (I really like it, smells amazing and my hair does look a bit more voluminous)


Clothe wise I got a new cardigan from Only (£10). It’s a piece that really can make an outfit and it also looks very autumnal. (Trousers are from H&M, TShirt is from Pull&Bear, Watch is Daniel Kone, Shoes are from a lokal shop)


A white blouse from Vero Moda (£10). You never can have too many blouses and you can wear it with everything, basically. (Those cool Trousers I'm obsessssed with, you can wear them with nearly everything and you will look soooo cool in them, they are from Pull&Bear as well; Shoes are from Tamaris)


From H&M I got two tops that look a little bit more chic. One with little stars and the other one with little flowers.(Cute) ( Jeans is from H&M as well... but also very old)


Another blouse from Primark (£14). Basic piece. (Tousers are again from H&M)

I did link some similar things

Present Idea: Picture Frame

Image
Hello Loves, Are you on the hunt for present ideas? Here is one  J I went on Pinterest to look for some cool ways to present pictures. And I found this idea … So here is how I recreated this idea: I bought a metal ring for plants/flowers and spray painted it golden (mine was 38cm). Make sure that your spray paint is suitable for metal. Now you have to wait 24h for the paint to try. Second step is to attach ribbon onto the metal ring. I used a white ribbon 25mm x 2,5m. To attach the ribbon I used a hot glue gun. It’s a little bit tricky to that but you can do it. Third step is to add some fake flowers and leaves.  I used some apple blossom  J Last step is to add some pictures to your frame (obviously  J ). My pictures had a size of 13 x 9cm. Disclaimer: The idea belongs to the person/company/blog in the link mentioned above. I just recreated this idea and made some changes to it. Please be careful whilst using the materials mentioned a

Squash Risotto

It's autumn and that means, squash season... With all that squash, you can bake and make all kind of things. As for today I made a really simple squash risotto. Prep time: 10-15 minutes  Cooking time: 30 minutes What you will need (for 2 to 3 Persons): Half a Squash ( I used Hokkaido) Half a Cup Risotto Rice 1 Onion Oil Water Vegetable Buillon Powder Salt Pepper Cheese (like Parmesan) To do: First you have to cut the squash into halves and remove the seeds. You can, but you don't have to peel the shell off (save time). In a pot, you have to make a stock ( you can use some hot water with Vegetable Bouillon Powder) and keep it warm. Next step cut the squash into little pieces. In a pan you have to fry a sliced onion. After that you can put half a cup of risotto rice and the squash into the pan. The rice should be a little bit clearer after that. Put some stock into the pan and bring it to boil. Reduce t
