DIY: "You Go Glen Coco" (Mean Girls) T-shirt!
Yesterday another Little Mix member, Jade Thirwall, posted a picture on Twitter of her in a T-shirt with "You Go Glen Coco" on it. Also a Mean Girls quote! You can get the Tee at Doll Boutique. As much as I love that tee, I didn't feel like paying 40 euros + shipping costs for it if it's so easy to DIY! I was going for an oversized mens tee but instead I bought an oversized tank top at H&M for 4 euros, and a textile marker for 1 euro. So, my version of this t-shirt cost me only 5 euros. Gotta love DIY-ing♥
If you wanna know how I made this T-shirt, or if you wanna do it as well, keep on reading!

Ik heb een zwak voor kleding met grappige printjes of teksten erop. Een tijdje geleden kon je in een artikel over Little Mix zien dat Jesy Nelson een superschattige beanie droeg met de welbekende Mean Girls quote "You Can't Sit With Us". Die wil ik zo graag hebben, maar helaas is hij overal uitverkocht. Mocht je een online shop kennen waar ze hem nog hebben, laat het me weten:D
Gisteren plaatste Jade Thirlwall, ook van Little Mix, een foto van haarzelf op Twitter in een superleuk shirt met de tekst "You Go Glen Coco". Ook van Mean Girls! Zo'n hilarisch shirt is echt iets voor mij, maar ik heb geen zin om 40 euro + verzend kosten te betalen voor een tshirt dat ik net zo goed zelf kan namaken! Lekker creatief op mijn vrije dag:) Ik ging naar de stad om een simpel T-shirt te halen, dat uiteindelijk een oversized hemd werd. Het shirtje was maar 4 euro (H&M) en de textielstift was 1 euro, dus mijn DIY is stukken goedkoper dan het origineel. Als je benieuwd bent hoe ik deze DIY gemaakt heb, lees dan snel verder!

Shielo sent me this leave in protectant spray with UV protection, especially for styling! I was so happy that Shielo approached me to test this product; I was just looking for good hair products since my hair is dead and damaged because of the daily blowdrying and straightening/curling :p I tested this product for a week, and I can honestly say that I LOVE it! My hair looks visibly healthier, it has more shine and it's in better condition now.. I especially used it when I washed my hair, I sprayed the product on my hair and combed through it. I already noticed a difference when I blowdryed my hair: it didn't get static at all.. I have used hair straigtheners and lots of hair products like I usualy do, but it seems like my hair isn't suffering from it anymore! It feels and looks better, people even started asking me what I did to make my hair look this good..
This week felt like Christmas! So many packages came in, and I'm still waiting for 9 other packages, yay:D Those are mostly clothes, so you'll see them in one of my outfit posts soon.
It's been so long since I actually went inside shop because I've been doing all the shopping online. I needed a simple white shirt for my You Go Glen Coco DIY shirt, but the search for that shirt turned into an entire shopping spree. Here's what I bought at H&M last week and all the stuff that came in from Ebay (oh, and a Links of London bracelet)!
By the way, what I love about Ebay is that I buy something, I forget about it as time passes, and 3 weeks later I get all my packages at once, haha!
After seeing this first picture, you may have noticed something different about me.. I've got new hair extensions! I'm a big fan of very long hair, so I chose the 24-26'' / 61-65 cm full head 100% human hair extensions from Dirty Looks(used to be HeadKandy) in Melted Chocolate. DirtyLook's shipping is very fast that's for sure, I got them in just 3 days. They were also very helpful with deciding which color to get; great service!
I have been wearing clip in hair extensions off and on for 3 years and although I am no professional at all; I now know a huge amount about them which I have picked up over time. I couldn't help but jump for joy when I got my package! The extensions came in this cute purple box, along with an instructions guide, a sample clip in and extra clips. The hair looked great; shiny, super long and super thick. I took the sample clip out and it matched my color perfectly! Even though I know how to use clip ins, I went through the instructions guide before clipping them all into my own hair. Literally takes about 5 minutes!
The extensions are 100% human hair and they've got numbers on them so you'll know which weft to apply first. (I've got 10 of them in total) To put them in I just section off my hair, starting from the bottom up. I backcomb each section of hair at the roots and add some hairspray to give the clips something to hold on to. People always think they can fall out, but even if you have naturally thin hair like me, trust me. They won't!
Since the extensions are great quality 100% human hair, you can curl and straighten them like your natural hair. I did both, so I can show you what they look like both way:) Don't forget to always use a heat protectant spray or other protecting product. The extensions should stay super soft and shiny when you take good care of them. I've just started wearing them so I can't be the judge of that yet, but from these 2 days of wearing them all I can say is: the quality is great, they're super easy to use, they come in with extra clips and a sample clip, Dirtylook's service is great... I'm a very satisfied girl with very long hair!
It's been a while since my last Q&A, so it's time to do one again. I personally love Q&A's, it gives readers the chance to learn more about the person behind the blog.
You can ask me anything; fashion, beauty or blog related or just any random thing: now's the time to do it! I'l be back with the answers to your questions soon! P.S totally irrelevant, but I wanted to post a picture with this Q&A so here's today's make up look

Mijn laatste Q&A is weer een tijdje geleden, dus tijd voor een nieuwe! Zelf vind ik Q&A's altijd super leuk, zo leer je de persoon achter de blog kennen:) Ik krijg vaak vragen in comments, in mijn mail en soms op Twitter of FaceBook. Superleuk natuurlijk, maar een Q&A is natuurlijk de perfecte gelegenheid om los te branden met je vragen:) Het maakt niet uit waarover, als je wat wilt weten of gewoon ergens nieuwsgierig naar bent, stel je vraag dan in een reactie en dan ben ik binnenkort terug met de antwoorden! P.S. Beetje off topic maar ik wilde niet zo'n lege post maken, vandaar een foto erbij met mijn make up look van vandaag;)
Today I'm going to show you my outfit with my new UGG Australia shoes!
Here's a glimpse of what I wore yesterday; unfortunately I didn't take more pictures because I had to hurry for school... I wore my new H&M jeans again with a new grey leather jacket and a sheer top. I'm obviously all about greys and blacks, especially with leather and sheer fabrics.. I only added some color on my lips actually!
It's time for my monthly personal pics- phone pictures and random camera shots- so that post will be online tomorrow:) Other than that I'm going to enjoy my early weekend and study for my tests next week..
Make-up: lashes from Valsewimpers.com Outfit: Vila leather jacket, H&M top +jeans, Guess bag, Van Haren pumps
Crazy... But who cares, Helllllo...Gangam Style was on
The ingredients are cocos nucifera oil, gardenia tahitensis flower, perfume, and tocopherol. No paraben or other preservatives, so no allergies not even for the most senasitive skin. This moisturizing oil nourishes, restores and protects skin and hair. The hair benefits from using Monoi Oil and it can be used daily on dry and damaged hair, focusing on the ends.
That is what I've been doing for the past 3 days, and I feel a major difference, Since my the ends of my hair are bleached to ombre, they get dry and tangle a little more than usual. So you could also give the hair an intense deep treatment by using the oil as a hair mask, before shampooing.
The Monoi Oil can also be used as body oil, massage oil and even bath oil for its relaxing scent and moisturizing effects on dry skin! You know what I did? I replaced it for my night cream. I apply a little bit on my face, massage it and then go to sleep. I don't know of this is actually true or if its just between my ears, but the lovely scent makes me feel calm and relaxed, so it's perfect before going to sleep;)
All the new stuff
I decided to buy some simple crystal earrings because I usually either wear long ones or no earrings at all. My grandmother also gave me a pair of vintage golden ones, which I love to wear for special occasions. I've got a great L'oréal blusher, I'll show how gorgeous and shimmery it looks in a new makeup post or video. I've also got a new silk jacket, pink snakeskin phone sleeve and a new bracelet:) Likey likey?
Enjoy your weekend!
