Back to my ''Ottoman'' roots.

“All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

A light from the shadows shall spring;

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

The crownless again shall be king.” 

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

As you know maybe I have Turkish heritage but live in Amsterdam, but actually I have always be more Turkish than Dutch. The amazing history of Turkey, like the Ottoman Empire, the romantic and exciting stories of Constantinopel fascinates me over and over again. Since I can't afford one of those precious Ottoman jewels, I own some look-a-likes. I am totally in love with with the accessories I'm wearing in this post :))

The dress on the pictures is actually a long cardigan that I've wrapped around my body. My thights are from Fiore, don't miss this brand and take a look in their catalog. They have very elegant and original tights in a wide range of colors and designs.

I hope you like it <3
