As our big day is only 21 days away, I'm starting to get very excited. The final preparations for the wedding are being made like visiting the flower shop for the bouquets and the jeweler for the rings as well as making appointments with the hair dresser and visagist so I can truly make a smashing appearance on 12 March. But I noted that I'm definitely not the only one who wants...
For those who follow me on Snapchat already know that I escaped the Dutch winter and flew to Marbella: my second home, my happy place and my interpretation of an amazing cozy and welcoming family house. Whether I come here with friends or family and whether it is winter or summer, an amazing holiday is assured. At this location the flowers are more beautiful, the sun is brighter, the...
Close your eyes and dream away. Imagine you go back in time, to a very romantic city. Somewhere in Paris, Venice, Carmel, San Sebastian or Prague. Some place where you experienced extreme happiness; away from all your sorrows and stress. A happy place, most likely a beautiful one with bright colours and many smiling faces. Sunrise or sunset, beach or on top of a snowy mountain, with friends...
On Monday I was invited to celebrate the 10th edition of MINT on the Modefabriek in Amsterdam, the b2b platform for sustainable fashion & lifestyle at the biannual fair during which different labels present their new collections to retailers, press, stylists and other professionals. Besides the celebrations I was very anxious to check out the new collection of the eco-friendly fashion brands. And when I started my round, my eyes were immediately drawn...
Grab your bag and go to the Villa Thalia dinnershow in Rotterdam! Trust me, you have to experience and see this show for yourself. This is a spectacle, a very special entertainment event and a true party.

Today I will show you the perfect bag for a weekend trip with images that were taken at a very magical location. A very photogenic one and it is therefore not without reason that you already have seen more pictures that were taken in this city pass by on this blog. Marrakesh Marrakesh got to me. It's a totally different world with so many bright colours, literally and figuratively speaking. There...
As Valentino showed in their fashion show for spring/ summer 2016, the animal print will be hotter than ever. We have seen these prints for quite some fashion seasons now, so you might already have some fine pieces in your collection. That also applies to me and I very much like to carry my python shoulder bag, the Herschel backpack and the Eastpak trolley. But now that we keep extending...
Grab your bag and go to Azar Restaurant Marrakesh! I really wanted to share this great restaurant in Marrakesh for a while now. The perfect place to dine in a very lively manner and in a unique interior. Azar Restaurant has great service as each member of the team was very professional, helpful and inviting. Azar does it the oriental way, in all great aspects you can imagine. Each of the dishes on...
Grab your bag and go to La Mamounia Marrakesh! Everything about this hotel is truly fascinating and a little bit of magic can be found in almost every corner. Even though the legendary and luxury hotel is almost 100 years old and inspired by the ancient Moorish culture, the hotel offers modern comfort, luxury and style in every aspect. It is known as a glamorous place and many celebrities and bloggers are...
Love Moschino is slowly becoming one of my favourite fashion labels. Especially when it comes to bags, this brand obviously knows how to design the pieces that I want to put on top of my must-have list! Because I love statement bags, preferably with a quirky touch. And that is exactly what Love Moschino creates whereby it also adds a sense of original audacity (think of the past bear, barbie and loony tones collections). Like...
