Hi lovelies,
I can’t believe it’s already 2015!!! I hope you had the best New Year’s Eve you could wish for. I always struggle with what to do on New Year’s Eve. Do you feel the same? And how do you deal with it? I wanted to look back at the year 2014 before I start and enjoy 2015 to its fullest. Starting with the very first look of 2014. Smiles all over the place! I love to look back and think about what I’ve learned and how I’ve grown personally and study/career wise. It has been a Continue Reading…
My sweetest readers,
What I’m wearing
Rinascimento dress
River Island heels

D: When scrolling through the t-shirts on the Roostercat webshop this one immediately caught my attention. I love their designs, but I related to this shirt particularly, aptly titled “Leap of faith”. Its design relates to the way I look at life: the importance of nurturing certain qualities you possess as a child. In this design, this is depicted (according to my interpretation) as the belief that, although the world may try to tell you otherwise, once you let go of that swing there really may be the possibility of flight.
O H M Y! What a wonderful birthday it was!!! I’m still amazed! My boyfriend had planned the best birthday ever! First, he took me to ‘I-don’t-know-where’, until I found out we were about to see an exhibition about Jean Paul Gaultier. Could you make me more happy than watching haute couture on my birthday?
Well, he could! When we came back to Amsterdam, he took me to a restaurant, ‘the Bierfabriek’ which literally means the Beer Factory. Now you probably think ‘say what?!‘ Yes, the Bierfabriek :D. They brew their own speciality beers, but more importantly, (my friend Annisa has been telling me about that place over and over again) because they serve the best chicken and fries in town! So I couldn’t be happier because I was going to eat fries on my birthday! Hahaha, I’m such a kid right :D.
But..after we had entered the restaurant, I suddenly heard some crazy people yelling and shouting. So I thought, ‘what-the-heck-is-going-on-over-here’?!?! Then….I started to recognize people! There it was, a S U P R I S E party! Kidding me?!?!?! My eyes started to tingle and little tears started to stream down my cheeks – frozen for a lifetime and crying within seconds. I was in serious shock for about a minute or two (my friends said that I was just standing for at least 10 minutes :p).
And then the little streams became waterfalls and I started to really cry. All my friends were sitting there waiting for me to make my birthday the best ever. And I’ve been spoiled like WOW!
The funny part of it was an item of my ‘petit’ wishlist. It was definitely petit cause I got not one, but TWO white Zara shoppers that were part of my wishlist! Not to worry, I will exchange one bag for the white sandals!
Of course I will write a goodies post about all the gifts that I got! So happy with them! Most of them are white (read: my latest obsession), my friends know me too well 🙂 I’m so so so thankful for everything and to have all of you in my life!
They even suprised me with a nomnomnom birthday pie after dinner! It was just perfect..every single bit of it!
Now something about this outfit! I found this super cute white embroidered top (read: currently obsessed with white) at H&M two weeks ago and it caught my eyes immediately! The fitting and the details are more than perfect!
A year has passed by. A year full of joy, happiness, wisdom, knowledge, adventures, but also a year with some difficult periods. But I guess that’s normal. The thing I always keep in mind and try to do is to stay positive and realistic. It’s good to have dreams and to always try to achieve them, but, it’s also good to be down to earth and think clearly.
I’m definitely a dream hunter. After many years of hesitating, last year, I finally decided to start a fashion blog. A dream that has become reality now. And I’ve not regretted it, not even for a second. However, it’s the support of the people around me that has made it become reality. And therefore, I will not make a wish for myself on my birthday, but I wish my family, my friends and of course my biggest love, all the happiness and luck in this world. Love you all!
Like every single girl and woman in this world, I always dreamed to find my true love. I cannot describe in words how thankful I am I met this boy named Diederik. He is my best friend, the greatest supporter and the best lover. Right now he is staying in New York City where he is following his dream as a music producer. After I had to miss him before for about 6 months, this time he will stay for just 6 weeks. He is also the biggest support of my blog, my photographer, my technical nerd. Without him I wouldn’t have come this far. I’m so thankful to have you in my life!
P.S. We did these shots in Wageningen, the city he grew up in. Just before he went to NYC, we spent a whole day together in this city where he showed me all the places he has all those memories of about which he has been me telling for years.
After spending a couple of lovely days in France last week (outfit pictures will follow later!),
I’m heading to Portugal for 10 days! Can’t wait to feel the sand beneath my toes and taste the salt from the roaring sea on my skin.
Since I do not have access to the internet, I will not be able to post any outfit pictures.
Í’ll be back soon showing you (outfit) pictures from Portugal and outfit pictures I still have to show you which are made during last week’s sunny weather in the Netherlands!
And of course..I’ll bring these lovely items with me. If you ask me, nothing more is needed.
Ciao!
