#LONDON BABY PART 2#

Already got back from London like a week ago....so too long I haven't updated my blog...shame on me....

Here is a short impression of our great trip. We did a lot of shopping, site seeing and more shopping hihi...Loved it.

 

 

About my jobinterview. It went very well but as I said it was more like a get-to-know-each-other talk.... They were very nice and also gave me some names and companies whom I can approach for a job. That's what I did and now I am waiting for their response. Hopefully a nice response with the perfect job!!

#LEOPARD RINGS ARE THE NEW BLACK#

Got myself this amazing leopard ring....was inspirated by the amazing blog of Caroline...go and check it out...
xoxo

ps. This afternoon I have a sort of job interview at an amazing company. It's not a real one, more like a 'get-to-know-each-other' interview.Would love to work there, so I really hope it will be a nice interview with some good opportunities. Fingers crossed!

#LONDON BABY#

Next monday my boyfriend and I are celebrating our 10th years anniversary and to celebrate this he surprised me with a trip to London! Next friday we will leave and stay the weekend in a lovely hotel! We already booked two tickets for the most fabulous musical ever; Wicked! Ofcourse there will also be some shopping. Okay a lot of shopping.... I can't wait to visit Topshop, New Look, Primark, River Island, Dorothy Perkins and so on!
Do you have any other suggestions?!

#NO WORDS JUST LISTEN#

Well I held you like a lover
Happy hands and your elbow in the appropriate place

And we ignored our others, happy plans
For that delicate look upon your face

Our bodies moved and hardened
Hurting parts of your garden
With no room for a pardon
In a place where no one knows what we have done

Do you come
Together ever with him?
And is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?

Well you held me like a lover
Sweaty hands
And my foot in the appropriate place

And we use cushions to cover
Happy glands
In the mild issue of our disgrace

Our minds pressed and guarded
While our flesh disregarded
The lack of space for the light-hearted
In the boom that beats our drum

Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love

Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?

What about me?
What about me?

#JIMMY CHOO FOR H&M THE SEQUEL#

Yesterday I received my order from H&M. Sorry to say that I wasn't really impressed with all of the items. I really did love the black flat ballet flats but the size is just a bit too small. So no ballets for me. The bag I ordered was really disappointing, meaning it was soo small! The gladiator heels were quite nice but too much like the gladiator heels I already have. So this leaves me with the black shiny killerheels. At first I thought that I wasn't going to keep these ones but I tried them on and they fit perfectly. So only one item of the Jimmy Choo collection for me.

If you are interested in buying the other items. Please send me an email with your bid.

ps. all the shoes are size 8 (us)/39 (euro).

*update*

- Ballet flats are sold.

xoxo

#THE OUTFIT PART 2#

Check out my new COS dress. Love it! Actually I loved everything in store...wanna go back soon :-)!

This is what I was wearing to my jobinterview (and yesterday to the amazing event; TEDxAmsterdam) only instead of the boots I wore my lovely Nine West peeptoe heels to the interview.

Dress: COS,
Tights: H&M,
Necklace: H&M,
Boots: Tango

#IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PERFECT JOB PART II#

Last week I told you that I was invited for an intern interview at a very nice company. The interview went very well and the more I heard about the company the more I wanted to work there. After the interview I went home with a good feeling and that feeling turned out to be right. Around 5 o'clock friday afternoon they called me and said that they would love it if I would be their intern. I was so flabbergasted and so excited that I enthusiastically said yes! I talked about it with my bf and he was also very enthusiastic. Until we came to the financial part and we had to conclude that it was not possible to afford everything if I would not have a normal salary. I fellt really dissapointed but it is how it is. So this morning I called them to tell the bad news. They could totally understand it but at the moment they could not offer me a job. So unfortunately I am back on the road again.... looking for another nice job in the PR/Communication and fashion. Hope I will fnd a nice one.

xoxo

ps I did manage to find the perfect job interview outfit. On thursday I went into town (Amsterdam) but couldn't find anything. Then a good friend of mine told me I had to go to COS in The Hague. And that's what I did on friday morning and I scored the perfect dress; black with balmainlike shoulders. Love it! Will post a pic asap.

#SCARCITY MAKES PEOPLE BUY#

Jimmy Choo for H&M, a lot of people were looking forward to the launch of this special line for H&M. Since I do not have any money I did not want to buy anything although I really liked the black flat studded pumps.

But yesterday morning when I woke up around half past nine I had some kind of weird feeling. I went downstairs made myself some breakfast and checked my email on my Iphone. And then I saw the clock ticking and suddenly I could not resist to try to enter the H&M online store. At first I couldn't get in, but stubborn as I am I kept on trying. And suddenly I was in... and I felt the pressure of scarcity, and out of the blue picked some shoes -no not only the flat pumps- and a bag and put them in my online basket...and..... I ordered them. I told myself that I could always return the items or sell them (I did not checked marktplaats and Ebay before I thought that lol).  Typically an example of the cognitive dissonance theory. So I kind of fall for the pressure of scarity...stupid me....although it still does not feel that way because I so do love the items I ordered.  H&M passed with flying colours....still think it's amazing why do people so want these items....and why am I one of them?!

What do you think? And did you get in, and had the chance to order something?

xoxo

#IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PERFECT JOB#

Thanks for all the best wishes for my application.

Got a phonecall today from the agency where I applied for a job. Unfortunately they don't have any vacancies at the moment but they are looking for an intern. Due to the fact that I do not have much experience in fashion and PR/Communicatie she asked if I would like that. I did not have to think about it, and immediatly said that I would like that very much. Next friday I have the job intern interview! I'll keep you guys posted which outfit I will choose! But there will definately be some shopping this week!

Keep you posted!!

#I ROCK#

ps. Please keep on making outfits for me :-). Check the previous post for more information!

#HELP ME OUT AND I'LL MAKE YOU FAMOUS#

Dear readers,

As you all know by now I am very busy looking for the perfect job. A couple of weeks ago I have found a perfect company and today I send them my resume and motivation. So now I have my fingers crossed for their reaction.

I really hope they will invite me for a job interview and for this I would love you to help me with my outfit. Ofcourse I have some ideas of my own but I am very curious about your ideas for the perfect job interview outfit.

Please combine an outfit for me with pieces from online shops and post it here, or send me an email (rrrianne@gmail.com). If I pick your outfit I will especcially name you and your blog in my next column for coak.nl. This will help you get a lot of extra attention, and will make you a little bit more famous. Who doesn't want that!!

Be creative!!

I am looking forward to your creations!!

xoxo

#SHOOT ME#

Tomorrow I have a shoot and instead of money I will receive some goodies (he is a friend, so we kind of made a deal).

One of the things I will get are these amazing Sabre sunglasses. What do you think?

I will also receive some tees with a print of my own choice. But at the moment I don't know what kind of print. Any suggestions?

#SEPHORA#

Since a couple of weeks I am a freelance writer and a columnist (see: http://www.coak.nl/2009/10/riannes-zoeklicht/#more-2427)  for an online magazine called coak.nl. One of the nice things about being a writer is that you have the opportunity to go the events and see new products before anyone else can.

About a week ago I had the opportunity to visit the Sephora xmas event. The event was held in the Westergasfabriek in Amsterdam and it was so nice and cosy! There was champaign and we could eat strawberries out of a chocolat fountain and much more :-). But ofcourse it wasn't about the food. It was all about the new products which will be in store in november.

I really liked the products and gifts they have for christmas and already picked out some nice presents which I would like to give to my friends and family.

One of the new productlines is inspired on the Parisian Cabaret 'le crazy horse' and one of the items of that line are these sweet little ducks.

The winter shower and bath collection of Sephora is inspired on caramel and chocolat. The bodymousse smells so deliscious that you have to keep yourself from tasting it! If you buy multiple products of this line Sephora will put the products in this lovely bathtub.

The cherry on the pie is that Sephora does not wrap your present in old-fashioned giftpaper, but in these fabulous boxes. This makes it even nicer to give presents (or not, because you want to keep it for yourself ;-)).

Nice thing about all this? You don't have to think twice about where to buy you christmas presents. Sephora has something for everybody!

#THE OUTFIT EPISODE 1#

Yesterday I went shopping with my sister. And look what I found: the bag I saw on Ebay only much cheaper. So Ebay isn't always as cheap as I thought.

Here a picture of todays outfit. Sorry for the bad quality but my camera is in Amsterdam, so I had to take the photo with my Iphone.

Ouch I'm looking a bit odd...:S (don't like pictures of me)

Bag: Zara //Boots: Tango // Dress: H&M // Leather Jacked: a leathershop in Amsterdam // Sunglasses: Fendi

#IN NEED OF SHOPPING(MONEY)#

So cool the stuff you can find on places as ebay and marktplaats (dutch ebay).
Love this bag...... love these boots.....
Too bad I can not afford all of them at the moment. Can't wait to have a job :-D

Update: oops bought them both :-D

#DECISIONS#

Recently I told you about my doubts about what kind of job in fashion I would like. Last week I spoke to some people and attended some events and now I do know what I want; I want to do PR/communication.

It feels as such a relieve that now I do know what I want. But then again, on the other hand; PR/communication and then preferably in fashion might be kind of difficult to find. Difficult, since I do not have any experience in fashion. As a woman of a fashion recruiters agency told me, it is essential  to have experience to enter that world. According to her, another way achieving what I want can be done through networking. And that's a thing I am good at! From the moment I had access to the world wide web I had my own little blog on lifejournal and stayed in contact with people with the same interest (mostly fashion) from all over the world! My fascination for social media was born! Since then I did not only write my blogs I also attended hyves, facebook, linkedin, several modelplatforms and my favorite, twitter. Through all these social media I have met a lot of people and had a lot of opportunities which I would not have if I did not know all these people through the Internet. So networking should be a piece of cake for me.

Another advice someone gave me is that I have to be noticed. This means, no standard resume, and no standard application letter. So what I did is I made my resume in psp. I am not very good at it, but I have some basic skills, and taking that in mind I am very proud on the result. I hope the companies who will receive it, think the same way ;-).

Networking check

Standing out check

I'm gonna give it my very best and hope that within a couple of weeks I have found my perfect job!

I'll keep you posted!
