Sports wishlist - Leisure / Human Movement (vrij)
I don't only like shopping fashion items, but I also love to shop for new sportsgear. It's getting colder these days so I need some warm clothes for running. I was looking for some new stuff and I stranded on the H&M shop. I want to share my wishlist with you.
I already ordered the winter running leggings and the purple top. I hope I love them!

Living Inspiration - Living / Appearance (vrij)
I really can't wait until I have my own apartment. I have no idea when or where that is but I'm already dreaming about it. It seems wonderful to have an own bathroom and kitchen instead of sharing them in a studenthouse. I would like to have a wonderful spot for myself. I'm already full of inspiration so I would like to share my ideas with you.

Autumn Musthaves - Appearance / Living (Vrij)
I don't like it that summer is over. Especially because of this summer was so beautiful and I enjoyed every second like incredible. I also think it's good that the autumn has begun. It feels like a new start. With different clothes, food, weather and other things. I have created a collage with all of my fall musthaves.
A scarf, wine red nail polishes, a fake fur vest, an umbrella, nice and warm boots, lovely rituals stuff and a delicious vanilla scented candle are my absolute must haves!

My favourite jewellery - Appearance / Living (vrij)
Today I'd like to show you my favorite jewellery. My watch is from Oozoo and I wear this one everyday, I wear it for 1,5 years now and I'm still very happy with it. My bracelets change by time, between my silver Ti Sento one or the ones on the pictures. - My watch is from Oozoo as I told you. - The bracelet with brown and gold is from SuperTrash and my boyfriend gave it to me a half year ago. - The other bracelet is from Biba and is black with rosé-gold - The earrings are pearls with rosé-gold and I wear them almost every day . - The other earrings are from H & M and I think they're really super nice!
What do you think about my jewellery? Pictures are made by myself, I am quite proud of these.

Yankee Candle - Appearance / Living (vrij)
Last Monday I went shopping with my mom. I read a lot about Yankee Candles on several blogs and I decided that I want to try them too. I decided to go for Votives, try out candles that burn for about 15 hours. This candles are €2,60 for one piece. You must have a glass where you can put them in, but I don't think that's a problem. I bought a really nice one at Xenos for only €1,99.
Picture by myself I took four candles. Sandalwood,Baby Powder, Christmas Cupcake and Red Apple Wreath. I will give you a short description of every vandle. Sandalwood Vanilla '' Pure indulgence , the soothing warmth of fine aromatic sandalwood and rich , comforting vanilla . '' All unique and delicious warm scent. I love this one! Baby Powder '' A soothing , refreshing scent that calms the mind and gives it a subtle sense of innocence . '' This really smells like baby powder ! Delicious and fresh scent , that gives you a very nice clean smell. Christmas Cupcake '' An irresistible treat ... rich , creamy cupcake topped with a sweet glaze of powdered sugar . '' This smells slightly of vanilla , it's a sweet (but not too sweet ) and warm scent . Delicious! Red Apple Wreath '' Coming home from a pleasant holiday with the festive aroma of sweet apples , cinnamon , walnuts and maple . '' Another sweet , warm scent that most tends to cinnamon. I am a really big fan right now. There are still a lot of scents that I want to try , have you ever tried Yankee Candles ?

Wishlist H&M home - Appearance / Living (vrij)
I'm absolutely in love with the Christmas collection of H&M home this year. I have an huge wishlist, not only christmas goodies, but also ordinary stuff. I think the combination of this very beautiful goodies would make my home absolutely lovely.
I would like a basket for my magazines because they are all over my room. I also like the warm blankets and the decorative pillows.
I love the red color. I think it screws christmas. I love it in combination with earth tones, it makes your home look very elegant. I am kind of addicted to the H&M webshop, don't know if this is a good sign.. (Pictures are from H&M.com, collages are made by myself)

Christmas decoration @home - Appearance / Living (vrij)
At my studentroom in Tilburg, I don't have enough space to put everything in christmas mood, but I love it very much. Because of that I appreciate it zo much that my dear mother dressed their house up.
The house is so nice and cozy, and I couldn't contain myself, so I took a lot of pictures of it. Details are everywhere in our house, so I didn't take pictures of everything, but I will show you some of them.
Do you like it as much as I do?

Picture on wood - Appearance / Living (vrij)
December 24th was my boyfriend's birthday. Ofcourse I had presents for him. We gave eachother one day to Disney for our birthdays, but I had some other presents too. He received an aftershave balm of his favourite fragrance Acqua di Gio from Armani and a picture of us on wood. Photos which are printed on canvas is a hit for a while now, but I've never really liked this. Now I found something new, a photo on wood!
Picture by myself This is it ! I bought at fotoophout.nl , it is a 20 × 30 version, with whitewash . This version costs € 39.95. This sounds a little pricey, but I think it's very beautiful! What do you think of a picture on wood ?

Video
youtube
Everybody is a beauty - Appearance / Living A Swiss disability rights group has made an heart-warming video which screws that beauty exists within each of us. They create a campaign which they called ''Who is Perfect? Come closer''. There are made mannequin's with the same disabilities and they were put in window displays of big fashion stores in Zurich. In this way public could see and understand that true beauty, should never be defined by appearance alone.
I really like this video because it helps people with disabilities to accept their handicap and it shows other people that they are not sad and alone.

Fashion grandma - Appearance / Living
Who say's that fashion is only for younger people? That's the statement of photographer and artist Linda Dajana Krüger. It's fun to take fashion a little less seriously and remember that age is just a number. It became a really funny and positive serie of pictures which I want to share with you.
In this pictures you can see a grandma and grandpa dressed up in the latest street fashion.
This pictures are the proof that no matter how old you my be, you can always remain young and rebellious at heart. i really like this meaning behind the pictures, and beside that, it's a really nice serie of pictures full of humor.

Eating mask for ladies - Food / Health
This can only be an invention done by Japanners, but I think this one is quite funny. As a real lady, you have to eat chique without making a mess out of it. But also real ladies loves big burgers sometimes. But when we, ladies, can't eat them really charming. A Japanse fastfood chain has created something to solve this problem. An eating mask which they call the 'Liberation Wrapper'.. kind of funny name, if you ask me. The thought behind this idea is that female customers can hide their mounth behind the mask while they  chomp down on their big burger all without the feir of being watched at doing this.
Source
And believe it or not, it's an amazing succes. The orders of the company's biggest burgers have increased 213% sinds the debut of the 'Liberation Wrapper'.
I like this invention because it's funny and silly, but also based on consumer behaviour. They do have attention for their targetgroup which is a very good sign.

Portrait 2.0 - Appearance / Living
There portrait paintings which are famous all over the world, but they are all painted. At least as great, or even better, these portraits of various small items. Michael Mapes is an artists which makes this portraits. He took some of the most famous works by for example Rembrandt to recreate. He made them out of hundreds of small and various items as wood, buttons, plastic, metals, sequins, and many more. From close on you can see all the little parts of the portrait, but when you take a step back, you'll see the famous portraits in it.
I like Michael Mapes' work because he thinks out of the box. The uses new but also vintage items, which is quite sustainable. This is a whole new way of creating art and that's what I like about it.

Bring it on! - Appearance / Living
The eastern europe has many beautiful and old buildings, but too many of them are ruined by ugly and old graffiti. Two Polish artists wanted to make their country (and many more) more colorful and live up old and ruined buildings. The street are they make is not normal streetart. It's very colorful and eyepopping. They paint fantasy figures, in breathtaking details. They even went to Brazil to colour up the old and forgotten slums. Their paintings do have a really good en positive effect on people who live their and for tourists. They slums got a better reputation, because of this painting.
I will show you some examples of their work, in this way you can see this incredible beautiful paintings by yourself. I think this is very cool because it can make old and ruined districts more positive en popular, which is good for the economy, tourism and ofcourse the locals.

Eggminder - Food / Health
The Eggminder, the first smart egg tray. Sounds a little bit unnessesary but is again a new product in the Internet of Things industry. This smart egg tray lets you know how many eggs are left in your fridge, you can watch this number at your smartphone when you are at the grocery store. The Eggminder has a built-in wifi connection and in this way you can connect with your eggtray by the smartphone app which comes with Eggminder.
It also keeps track of recommended expiration dates, based on when the eggs where placed. A LED light which is on the Eggminder reminds you of which are your oldest eggs.
Source I think the thoughs behind this Eggminder are very good. This invention works against food waste, which is a big and worldwide problem. The Eggminder only can't solve this problem, but what if we could see are whole refridgerator and pantries? It will save a lot of money and ofcourse food waste.

Google eye - Food / Health
Google is working on a new product, again. This is their first medical product, a smart contact lens. This isn't the new Google glass but a completely new invention for diabetics. The intention of this lens is measuring the glucose level in the blood.
This is not the only thing it can do, they are working on a funtion which alerts you through a tiny LED light indicator when your blood pleasure is dangerously low or high. The Google X research team is now testing a prototype of the lens, it is not ready for consumers yet. There is a lot of work to be done. Google thinks it takes five more years before the lens is suitable for consumers.
Source
I like this Google invention. It's a good step that they are busy with medical products who make the quality of life of chronically ill people higher and better. I think it's really nice for people who have diabetic that they don't have to measure their blood level a couple times a day by pricking their finger. .

Elevator with the sixth sense - Leisure / Human Movement
Sounds quite unlikely, doesn't it? But it's the truth. Microsoft developed an smart elevator. This elevator opens her doors when you are around and it takes you to the right floor right before you can press any button in the elevator. This is all based on behaviour.
Source
Microsoft did a lot of study before they could develop this elevator. They watched the behavior of people in elevators for three months. The watched them with cameras and sensors in and around the evelator. Withouth any programming anything, the evelator started to recognize behavioral patterns. Someone who wants to go to the second floor, for example, behaves differently than someone who needs to go to the seventh.
After the test period, the elevator had learned enough. The elevator started to bring people to the right floor by himself!  I think this is very cool because this can happen just out of watching behaviour. This is a quite unnessecary invention, in my opinion, but if a elevator can do this, a lot more products can do this, which can make life easier and more safe.
