As I am such a huge fan of Snapchat (read here why), I created short movies of the nights & shows that I attended at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam. Sorry for the lack of sharpness & quality, but I hope it gives you a very good first impression of the amazing collections shown on the catwalk. Stay tuned on this blog (and Snapchat) as more of these kind of...

Grab your bag and go to Pick & Spend (Amsterdam)! Last Sunday I was totally prepared to enjoy a good day of pre-summer… However, unfortunately we were cheated out of that 22-degree-sunny-Sunday! I therefore thought it was a good idea to soften the pain and to cheer myself up with a short visit to De 9 Straatjes. As I parked my bike on the corner of the Keizersgracht and...

Grab your bag and go to Panini (Amsterdam)! My boyfriend and I passed this tiny restaurant at least a hundred times without noticing it. We practically are neighbors and we always walk past this casual Italian place whenever we go to get our groceries at Albert Heijn. Until last week and since then I regret the fact that I have been so blind all that time! Eva from Mrs. Anchelon invited...

Yoga, an exercise I love to do now that I am living my active and eloquent live. Yoga is a physical, mental and spiritual work out which I find relaxing and energizing as well as it makes me more lenient and slim. My favorite yoga school is De Nieuwe Yogaschool (Laurierstraat 109, Amsterdam). This serene and warm school makes me feel at home. I love it to recover from a lesson in...

I am just unable to express how much I adore the bags by Daphny Raes, a young and upcoming fashion designer. From her childhood on she was determined to do something with fashion. After she graduated from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, Daphny decided that she wanted to start her own label in Amsterdam. Leather is her passion and her main inspirations are architectural shapes and contrasting materials. She designs...
