The Furry Friend Tag

Hello everyone, I saw this tag on www.misslipgloss.nl and I loved to read it. I also love animals and especially dogs, I even think they are nicer than people. So I thought it would be fun to make this tag. Let's go!


1. What's the name of your pet?
My pet is called 'Chanel'. I know it's not so special and a lot of people give their pet that name but I think it suits my pet too.



2. What animal is it and what breed?

She's a dog, a Chihuahua. Maybe this explains why I called her 'Chanel' haha. I'm a small girl myself so I kinda needed a small dog too!


3. How long have you had your pet already?

I have her for two years now.

4. How did you get your pet gotten?

My 'stepmom' (not anymore) got her from someone, don't know thr whole story behind it but she gave Chanel to me.





5. How old is your pet?
Three years old since the 4th of July. She's not American tho!

6. What are a few crazy things about the personality of your pet?
Well she jumps like a kangaroo. When I'm not paying attention because I'm in the bathroom, she sneaks into my bedroom and sleeps on my pillow. Normally dogs sleep in the sofa when they are allowed to, my dog sleeps on the sofa.



7. What does your relationship with your pet mean for you?

A LOT. Chanel is my everything. I hate to leave her when I need to go to college. I try to take her with me as much as I can. She's spoiled, I'm aware of that but I think like “ if you have a pet be good for him/her. They also have feelings and they don't live for 30 years of more.. Just spoil them and you get so much love back.

8. What are your favorite assure unforgettable memories with your pet?
I can't really name one. I just love the little things with her. How happy she gets when she sees that my dad arrived and she can come with us. She's also very sweet she ALWAYS walks behind me wherever I go in the house. When I got home from my surgery I was scared that she would jump on me and hurt me but she stayed calm, kept me company ect..



9. What are the pet names for your pet?
“Mup”, “muppie”. These are Dutch words :)



Do you have a pet? Share it with me in the comments below.

One Direction 'Where We Are' Tour Düsseldorf.

The second and last part of the 'Where We Are' tour was almost there. Chelsea came to my house the day before. We watched 'The Vow' in bed, trying to keep the tears away. Well, I failed..

The next morning we left at 9.30 am to the trainstation in Aachen. From there we would take a direct train to Düsseldorf. We still had 45 minutes before our train left. As usual or what most people do now, we searched for Wi-Fi haha! The sun was shining, which made our mood change to “happy”. The weather has such a huge influence on me. When we arrived in Düsseldorf we first went for food, pizza it was! At 2.30 PM we arrived at our hotel and we kinda stayed there. Exept for the time that we went to the supermarket. We were planning on queuing the next day at the arena so we needed some food to bring with us.

Our alarm went off at 6.05, 20 minutes later than we expected. We went downstairs for breakfast where we already saw other 1D fans. We arrived at the arena at 7.30 AM. The only thing I can saw about the queuing is that at first it was pure chaos. The security was unfriendly and they talking to us and putting us between barriers like we were cows. At 4.30 PM we could enter the arena. At first I didn't see anything but when the boys came on I stood on the second row at the B-stage. The were so so so close! Zayn waved ( yes, I know it for sure!) and Harry put his thumb back up to me. The concert was amazing and so different from Amsterdam. Standing in the crowd makes a difference. You kinda feel one with the boys and crowd.

One Direction 'Where We Are' Tour Amsterdam

The concert was on the 24th of June but my trip started earlier. It started the day before by driving to the train station. I went to my friend, from there we would leave for Amsterdam. After an hour I arrived at her trainstation there she picked me up. I was kinda starving so we went to Quick for some yummie fastfood! Then we took the bus to her place, another hour on the bus.. We relaxed a bit and watched 'This Is Us' before going to bed. We were getting nervous..

The next morning we woke up at 7am, not very tired.. WE WERE EXCITED!! We took the train to Antwerp, it was only 15 minutes. We still had more than an hour to take the train. Where we went to? Is that even a question? Starbucks ofcourse! We didn't had breakfast yet so perfect timing! We almost stepped on the wrong train but damn we were happy when we arrived in Amsterdam. We still needed to buy tickets for the metro but first, pizza! No we didnt't eat anything healthy, oops! We already saw a few fans in the station and when we asked the woman behind the information desk which metro was the best for us she also told us that her daughter was going. "Have fun girls!" She literally screamed. Also our hotel was full of fans "Also going to One Direction tonight?"

We went to the Amsterdam Arena by bus, it was only 10 minutes driving. As we stepped out we walked to the "Hot Ticket" desk to the registered. "Go to section E." We passed by all the fans who were waiting for hours already. We showed our Vip-pass and were at our seats in no-time. For real, it was so chill, no screaming of pushing. We had amazing seats and I enjoyed it so much. Zayn his highnotes can still bring me to tears *-*. If you are going to a show I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. This was the 5th time that I saw them and my third concert, I keep falling in love with them.

After the amazing concert we took the bus, which was full of fans, back to our hotel. The next day we went to Starbucks again. On our way home we got stuck in the train for 45 minutes because there was an accident between a train infront of us and a passenger. We were so stressed becaused we missed our connection but we made it in the end.

This was the second time that I met my friend Chelsea and it was so so so soooo good! Can't believe we're going back to Düsseldorf in a few days. We have standing tickets then. Let's see which memories we can make there!



You get the greatest memories while traveling.

MAC Blush Whole Lotta Love.


Hello everyone! Today I'm going to review the "MAC Pro Longwear Blush Whole Lotta Love". It's not a new color or something but it's my first MAC purchase. Their shop opened in my city in February. At that time I had exams and after them I had a surgery. When I felt good enough to leave the house I basically ran to the MAC store. I needed a blush cause mine fell on the ground. The assistant helped me to choose the right color. I loved how they took the time to help you because without her help I would have chosen the wrong color.


MAC description: A lightweight blush with extreme colour perfection and non-fading, eight-hour wear. Ultra fine, silky powder glides on and blends easily to provide a moist, flawless, natural finish or with layering, a brighter, more dramatic look. 



My skin is a little bit darker then the Belgian girls theirs so the assistant remommended "Whole Lotta Love". In the packaging  it looks dark and too heavy but on your cheeks it's so beautiful! It has such a good pigmentation and a warm undertone. It suits for winter and summer and feels light on your skin. I'm really happy with the blush you can buy it here for America and here for Belgium.

Personal update.


I took this picture yesterday and I think it's the perfect way to describe what I'm feeling. The reason why I was barely on here was college. After my exams they made an announcement. We had a huge project coming up, we had to choose a company and do research about their marketingmix. Oh damn! We had 8 weeks and we needed to work in groups. We had to put a lot of work and effort in it. Last tuesday was my final presentation. You think that I could rest? Well, next wednesday I have my first exam and it will go on till the 21th. Oh wish me good luck! 

After those horrible weeks I'm back with concert and festivals updates!


Lots of love! xo

Gift from nonna.


If you aren't Italian you're probably asking yourself what 'nonna' means :D. It just means 'grandmother'. So two weeks ago when I visited my grandma she took my hand and put the ring in it. I gave her a weird look, not knowing what she meant by it. "I can better give it now when I'm alive." Let me tell you, I was a bit in shock but also laughing it away. My nonna is not doing so well. Her bed came to the livingroom because the stairs are too much for her. She sleeps A LOT during the day and a nurse comes daily to wash her and help her. She doesn't really cook anymore and she used to love it! I'm really worried about her but we can't really talk. She doesn't speak Dutch and I don't speak Italian but I do my best. I just hope that I won't lose her soon.. We can't really talk that much but I know that I'm her angel. She's always to happy when I visit her. Today the family visited her for Mother's Day and dad bought a Italian cake for her. She asked "Did Eva buy it for me?" Dad lied and said yes. She started to smile and was so happy.

Since she gave my the ring, I've been wearing it everyday. I don't know what happened but since then, I realized how much she means to me.
