Old Bread Isn't Bad.

Crappy title. Sorry for not posting a couple of days, I had plenty of ideas but when I tried to 'put them on paper' they seemed really weird and ugly and they didn't turn out the way I wanted them to.

A couple of days ago, we ate french toast for lunch, and it inspired me to do some sort of french-toast-bavarois, but I couldn't find nice pictures of french toast and a glass, so I decided to draw it all myself. This is the result:

I know the roasted marshmallow looks poisonous, but everybody knows that a good marshmallow looks like a freaking mushroom. (:

I hope the recipe is clear, though.

And the amount of hairy fashion is getting on my nerves. Every time you watch tv you see spots about woman being happy a product removed the hair from their legs/armpits/downunder, and then fashion gives them all the hair back. I don't get it. The only thing furry should be a fur coat.

Miu Miu, Via.

It looks like an icebear-cow combination.

3.1Phillip Lim, Via.

(iPad case made out of rabbit. Am I the only one thinking this is hi-la-ri-ous?)

Anna Sui, Via.

€363,27 for a kitty-dressup-kit.

Maison Martin Margiela, Via.

Looks like his wig-coat, but then a little less freaky. It still looks like hair though.

But it's warm, and I guess that's what count because this fall there were a lot of bare legs on the runway, I think those people need a furry overdose to compensate or something.

Leather, Nutella and a new header.

Another 'NEED!' this fall: Leather, and particularly a leather skirt.

I'll just type the recipe here.

Makes 8-10 Cake Roll Lady Finger Nutella Muffins.

• 3 Eggs
• 65g Sugar
• 80g Cake flour
• 20g Butter, melted
• 40g Nutella
• 9 30g Melted chocolate
• 2-3 Drops vanilla extract
• 35-50 lady fingers
• 30-100g melted chocolate
• Whipped cream

The cake

Sift cake flour and put baking parchment on a baking tray, ±25x30cm (Or even better; a Swiss roll tray).

Mix eggs and sugar for 7-10mins, make sure there are no air-bubbles in it anymore.

Add baking powder in three separate additions, use a spatula. Don’t deflate the batter.

Add melted butter and vanilla extract, fold with the spatula until it’s well blended.

Bake for 10-15mins, make sure the batter won’t get too dry. Use a skewer to check if the cake is done. If it comes out clean, your cake is good.

Remove the sponge cake from the tray, keep the parchment underneath the cake.

Cover the sponge cake with a towel or a plastic bag to keep it moist and let it cool down.

Remove the parchment and put the cake on a new parchment, putting the side with the ‘crust’ down. Spread with 40gNutella, or 30gmelted chocolate.

Roll the cake by lifting up the parchment, Place the rolled cake seam-side down.

The lay-out. (You can also buy a ready-to-eat cake roll and save tons of time.)

Slice the cake in pieces of ±3cm. And put one of them on a clean piece of baking parchment.

Melt the chocolate and dip ½ of the lady fingers in it. Use the rest of the melted chocolate to spread the outside of the cake roll and place the lady fingers against it.

Use a spatula to remove the cake with the lady fingers from the parchment, so the chocolate spill that comes dripping underneath the lady fingers won’t come with the cake. Serve with Whipped cream, ice cream or leftover melted chocolate on top.

And for the banner, I used:

A: Camilla Skovgaard heels, Miu Miu boots, Cutler and Gross glasses, Nixon watch.

D: Givenchy heels, Marni broche, Isabel Marant feather earrings, Monica Vinader earrings.

H: Miu Miu belt, Alexander Wang boots, YSL earrings, Tory Burch flats.

I hope you like it.

Fall in love with fall in love with fall.

I hate creating titles.

In the next weeks I'm going to tell you what fall pieces you must own (or you must die.) and create two outfits with them.

This week: The cape/poncho.

I don't like the way the blue turned out, but whatever. (:

Lighten up.

I decided to try to make a low-calorie snack.

Of course, low calorie things mostly are ant-sized, but mines is the size of a butterfly.

Catchy name, huh?

I would suggest wearing this while eating it:

(Just the link, because I'm too lazy to make images, or take my own pictures of them.)

It's one of these weeks...

My head is empty. Sorry sweethearts.

All via Vogue UK

Decided to make a dramatic outfit with some of the best collections from this fall.

It's hard to find nice sunglasses in fall shows.

Same source.

I think I'll stop this weeks WOO. I'm annoyed I can't get good outfits out of it.

TRIANGLE

▲ Yep, that's a triangle.

You know food-pyramids, right? I made a 'life' pyramid.

But then a little diffrent.

The bottom row is the "YUGH, KILLS ME" row.

The row above that one is the "YUGH IT NEARLY KILLS ME" row.

Above that row we've got the "HMM. IRENE LIKES"row.

And on top we've got the "HEAVEN"

LtR,UtD:

(McDonalds)Icecream, Money, Forks (Which moron invented knifes, spoons and etiquettes? Forks are all you need, folks...), (Givenchy)FASHION, Internet.

Autumn, (Frida Kahlo)Art, Chinese Food, Tea, Pancakes, (Eatable)Apples, Nailpolish.

Wet leafs (Who invented that, it feels so gross on your skin), (Sushi)Fish: My tummy can't handle fish, People-Who-Use-Basic-Smileys, Caterpillars (I mean: What use do they have, they are weird. If there would be a school for insects, the caterpillar got bullied. Of course I know it turns into a butterfly, but couldn't the butterfly skip the entire caterpillar-being?), Perfume (Most people wear too much of it), Andy Warhol (Of course I understand he was/is very important for art, but I think he's doing what I'm doing: Using pictures that do already excist and editing them, and he was calling it 'art'), Nailpolishremover (Put it on your skin: IT BURNS!!!), English liquorice.

School (No explenations needed), Maths (Oh, miracle!), Lipgloss (It feels like there's bad pudding stuck to your lips), ASPERGES (The taste, the smell, the structure, the colour!), (HipHop)Caps, Alarm clocks (Especially at 07:05), Bright colours, Twitter (I mean, can you say what you want in 140 symbols? No way.)

If you read all of that, I love you.

Today's WOO. 

It's actually getting hard enough to use a skirt as a top.

I Hate Stripes...

Actually, I don't, but my new Week.Of.Outfits (Which is too long to write, so it'll be WOO) is annoyingly difficult.

And two drawings I made:

(Drawed in Real Life, coloured with Gimp.)

(My take on Prada Fall2011, Miu Miu Fall2011, Daphne G. Backstage at Versace Summer2011 (But she doesn't look like Daphne at all...)

Munch, munch.

I like the sound that word makes...

First of all: My favorite bags this season.

Source, Source, Source,

The cheapes is "just" €650,00, the most expensive €2.200,00.

(And the smalles one is the most expensive...)

And a new week of outfits.

Which I think is going to be really hard.

Junya Watanabe, A.L.C., Topshop,

Topshop, Topshop, Topshop,

Mulberry, Prada, Miu Miu,

Topshop, Topshop, YSL, Miu Miu.

The first outfit and I already got stuck.

It's too simple. But combinating all those stripes is hard...

I Hate Titles...

I never know a good one.

Today, I'll post Thursday and Friday, 'cause yesterday (Thursday) I posted Wednesday. Haha.

H&M, Other clothes.

An outfit. Miu Miu Fall'11 + Givenchy Fall"11 + Versace Summer"11.
