I promised that I will come back to Amsterdam and I promised to make time to blog whilst I was out there. Two trips later... And I have done it for you!
Day 1:
For this day, it was quite a nice warm day in Amsterdam, but it was a tiny bit breezy and I wasn't coming back to my apartment until the evening - so I opted for legs out and arms in, which worked out well as I didn't get too cold. This outfit is such an easy, simple look to put together, using the shorts as the staple piece, I made the rest of my outfit monotoned to ensure the shorts are still the staple piece. Of course, I went for black... an easy option! But depending on your certain style, you could switch the colour or even match the outfit with a pair of trainers or ankle boots.

Day 2:
We left quite late this day and was planning to come back to our apartment quite late at night so I prepared myself for the breezy evening, I packed a black bomber jacket with me for the night. We was also doing a lot of walking today, rather than public transport, so I wore my trainers - especially after breaking in my sandals the day before... my feet were feeling MASHED UP and I wasn't prepared for the walking that we done that day (learnt my lesson). This outfit is actually quite minimalistic, but the different textures and lengths involved pulls it together and makes it a lot more interesting. I also used a bag this day, instead of depending on my boyfriend and chucking everything in his backpack (sorry, not sorry) - I absolutely love this backpack that I got from La Moda, mostly because of the design, it falls nicely together and it's almost impossible for anyone to rob anything out of it PLUS it's my favourite print CAMO! If you're not too confident in wearing this top, you could pair it with a pair of plain black jeans to make the outfit more simplistic.

Day 3:
We planned to spend the day at Vondelpark today and looking at a few of the sights/museums. So I went for something comfortable and cute, it was also a really nice, sunny day... so my little legs were out! I wore a striped dress, that was really casual and fitted almost like an oversized t-shirt. This was perfect for a comfy and warm day, it was almost like wearing pyjamas, but still looked acceptable! I wore this dress with my Comme Des Garçon 70's Converses, which was a good unplanned match as Comme Des Garçon do a striped top similar to my dress (and my nails matched with the red, also unplanned). Besides being a wardrobe staple piece, stripes is also one of Spring/Summer 2015's hottest trends AND they literally come in so many different ways. I'm loving the classic stripe trend this season, it's perfect for the summer and I'm always finding myself purchasing everything striped recently.
