A live music, a good pair of friends, and a plastic cup with bad vodka or cheap wine. Yes dear people, I am going to a concert at the Melkweg tonight. Cultural - I need to sniff some art and explore a bit more in unknown territory. I do go to museums regularly. I have been visiting almost every year since I moved to Amsterdam (that's over ten years) faithfully the Rijks, because that's my favorite. But concerts of unknown bands, no, I hardly ever do that. So tonight I will, and Coco wouldn't be Coco if she didn't show up in a completely thought-out look.

Take it easy, I understand that you don't have to be completely polished at a low-threshold (rock) concert. But a little embellishment can't hurt, right? I'm getting ready like the usual: a little mascara here, eyeliner there. And I'm using my new eyeshadow stick from Sisley in the dark gray color (nr 4, Steel). I place this with a thin line above my eyeliner and let it run up a bit, creating a ‘cat eye’. Furthermore, I keep my eyes calm. I think your lips can really pop during a concert, you want to increase the chance that the sexy lead singer sees you, of course (did someone say groupie?). Now, a few days ago, I found a really great thing here at the editorial office. A deep red lipstick from Guerlain, with a built-in mirror. Then I can just touch up in the middle of the crowd. The stick also works nicely because it's very drawable. No lip pencil needed.

You shouldn't do a very precise hairstyle when going to a band. I'm going for wild hair this time. How? Very simple. I made a loose braid last night and slept with it. This resulted in a nice wave this morning that I maintain throughout the day with a good spray of hairspray. I mentioned it before, but the classic Elnett spray from L’Oréal, remains a favorite. If these rock waves start to fall during the concert, just lean forward and knead your hair at the same time. Just act like you're headbanging, no one will bat an eye.

If I show up with a super sweet scent, I'll immediately be found out. But how do tough chicks smell then? When I think of tough, I quickly think of Calvin Klein. So I sniffed around and searched the Downtown . This is a scent with cedarwood in the base, which makes it a bit more robust and that's what we're going for.

Rock is T-shirt, so I choose this Coca Cola version. Don't let Jet hear this, but this is what I secretly prefer to drink. Whether that's very tough, I don't know. Below I'm wearing a firm leather skirt. Here you'll find one from Zara, also on sale. And you're only really tough if you're wearing Dr. Martens. I'm going for this high boots. To strengthen the look, I'm going for a striking ring, like this candy. . And of course, I won't show up with my haughty YSL bag. I'm going for a tough backpack. This cute thing is from Zara and from last season, but you can now this get it on sale. I say buy it, concert or not.
