Outfit // FAP & MAS

IMG_7699
These pictures were taken after the Eleonora Carisi For Zalando event in Antwerp, of which I'll write a post about as soon as I get my hands on the official pictures taken that day. When the event was over, AnnebethPaulien and I wanted to go outfit shooting, but we found ourselves in between rain and a stormy wind. Thank God the MAS museum was just around the corner, which was both our shelter and shooting location.

This Filles A Papa blazer has been hanging in my closet for ages, but I never found the perfect opportunity to wear it. When I was looking for an outfit to wear to the event, I threw these pieces together randomly and I fell in love right then and there. I know some of you won't like the white, gold and checked combo, but I think they all work well together.

Blazer: FILLES A PAPA (ON SALE NOW) // Blouse: H&M // Pants: H&M // Shoes: VANS

Collection // Red Valentino F/W RTW 2014

Snowwhite1
I'm usually all about the rock 'n roll kind of lifestyle, but from the second that I hear 'Disney', I turn into an 8-year-old all over again. I've been to Disneyland Paris about 9 times now (and we're planning a new trip in the near future), my bedside table is packed with Tinkerbell statues and I still have all of the stuffed animals and puppets that I bought there in my room. 

So when I saw the campaign shots of Red Valentino's Fall / Winter Ready To Wear 2014 collection, I shrieked from happiness. An entire Snow White themed collection, it can't get any better than this. My eyes are open for the Snow White printed dresses, the apple purses, the big shopping bags and the heart shaped eye patch. I love how the collection is a mix between the girly girl and the rock chick.

What do you think about the collection?

Review // Rene Furterer Paris 'Curbicia' Shampoo

ReneeFurtererParis2
As long as I can remember, I've been dealing with hair that gets greasy in a heartbeat. For me to have pretty, shiny, clean hair all the time, I would have to wash it every day. Two days without washing definitely is the limit for me. If I don't have enough time or when I'm too lazy, I put my hair up in a ponytail or a bun, but still, it's just no fun.

I've tried every shampoo against greasy hair available, without any luck... Until now! A while ago, I received an email from Farmaline, asking if I wanted to try out some of their products. I'm always in to discover new things, so I said yes. Since I wasn't sure what to pick, they asked if I had some issues with certain parts of my body. I explained the hair situation and received a customized beauty package the day after. There was a note included, saying that the Rene Furterer Paris 'Curbicia' Shampoo was a personal favorite, so I decided to try it out immediately. And we have a winner! I'm totally addicted to this shampoo now and I'm definitely going to keep on using it in the future.

Shark Attack Loves... // Chloé 'Carlina' Sunglasses

Chloé
Did you ever look at Nicole Richie or the Olsen twins and thought that their sunglasses couldn't get any bigger? Well, think again. Meet 'Carlina', the star of Chloé's S/S '14 campaign. I have a feeling some of you will love her and many of you will hate her.

Big and dramatic vs. light and delicate. Total opposites and yet the perfect synonyms to describe Carlina. Even though Julia Stegner and Lou Doillon look fabulous in the shot above, they're not the real star here. How I would fit her into my looks? I'm thinking maxi dresses or denim shorts with a tank top, espadrilles and a fedora hat (preferably on the beaches of Ibiza). Or how about combining her with skinny jeans, a blazer and ballerina flats or heels for a day of meetings? To me, it's all possible. I'll definitely keep my eyes open for this one, now all I have to do is find her and hope she looks good in my company. ;)

I can't wait to read your thoughts on these sunnies.
Hit or miss?

The Chloé 'Carlina' sunglasses will be hitting Chloé boutiques and selected opticians in March 2014. 
There will be 5 colors available.
Price: € 245

Fashion News // Vans & The Beatles 'Yellow Submarine'

The-Beatles-Yellow-Submarine-by-Vans-for-Spring-2014
Exciting news in our inbox! Vans got inspired by The Beatles' 'Yellow Submarine' album cover and songs for their newest limited edition collection and we're totally loving it here at Shark Attack. Who isn't a Beatles-fan? (If you're not, I'm not talking to you.) I've been wearing the Vans' black and white checked Classic Slip-Ons since my early teen years and I just bought a new pair after wearing the last one to death.

With their bold prints and colors, these sneakers are perfect to spice up even the simplest of outfits. The inside and woven label are especially designed with images from the album cover. Plus, the shoes come in a special collector's item box. Even though the collection is limited edition, the shoes are super affordable. #ThumbsUp

If you're a fan of the The Beatles, take out your agenda and mark / highlight / underline Monday, 17 March 2014. That's when the collection will hit stores all over Europe. 

Anyone else who's as excited as we are?

Outfit // Feline

DSC05718
I initially had 'Cause I'm a motherf*cking P.I.M.P.' in mind as a title - because that's how I felt at the moment - but then I realized that my humor isn't everyone's cup of tea, so I had to look for some other options. Then I thought: leopard print + cat eye sunnies... Kinda feline, right? And there you go. I'm totally in love with the denim / leopard combo. One of the best combo's ever, if you ask me. 

These pictures were taken in Maastricht, just across the Dutch border and about 15 minutes from my house. I always feel at ease when I'm here, I just love this city. If you ever have the chance to visit it, please do. The people, the shopping, the atmosphere, the architecture... Everything's just right. Every time I'm there, I find a hidden spot that I hadn't noticed before. And I have a different background now, yayyy! 

My mom and I spent the day strolling around the city, looking for some nice sneakers to work out. Always go out in style, even if you're at the gym. That's my motto! If you're following me on Instagram, you might have already seen my new kicks. If not, you can follow me by searching for 'Krizia_S'. We ended the day having a drink together: warm milk and honey for my mom and a chocolate spoon with marshmallows for me!

Review // DoDo House Hand Cream

DSC05702
I received this little buddy from Born Pretty Store and I couldn't wait to try it out ASAP. Dodo House is a Chinese cosmetics brand - if I did my research correctly - and I just love Asian brands for their cute and adorable packaging. Just looking at the bunny shaped tube gives me an instant dose of happiness.

The outside gets an A+ already, but what about the inside?
