Pure beauty is hard to find these days in the Western world, especially things that weren't created at the expense of someone else. We want it all, by preference as soon as possible and at a low cost. As I was walking through these gardens of Puento Romano in Marbella, on my way to the amazing Restaurant Serafina, I was taking a closer look at these flowers, that have been...

Get the look: Cut out dress by Alexander Wang x H&M (buy similar one at asos.com), converse all stars, feather hairclip by By PiPit and Otra-Parte Bag. It is my birthday, yeah! And as a twin, I first need to congratulate my sister - remember her?! I quite often hear people say that they don’t like celebrating their birthday. But not me; I always love to honour the next chapter in...

Two strangers, a man and a woman. Waiting, dreaming, wondering around on a deserted platform. No strings that seem to attach, aren't there? Maybe, if you look closer you will see some comparisons; they both wear black, both wrapped in leather and both carry some fine pieces of Italian craftsmanship. Yes, that must be it; these two share a love for leather bags! I already told you in the...

Today I  finally show you what I was wearing exactly one week ago on the openingsnight of Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam. This is the kind of outfit I love to wear when I go out. It is uncomplicated, comfortable and accentuate my "good parts". Oke, I hear you thinking, "my what"? Well, personally I love it when my blue eyes, blonde hear and legs are highlighted. That is the reason why...

This dress is an item that I put on whenever I have to make a good first impression (get similar dress here) and it also enables me to play with these colors. The blue colored spripes combine with my favorite heels, which are just as comfortable as my Nikes. On these pumps I could run a Marathon...

All you need is a good statement bag, the bag that shows your style and makes you look good! The statement bag should be timeless, have a classic design and empower you to distinguish yourself from other women on the street. This purse expresses your taste and sophistication and you should be able to wear it in your every day life. You may think that a statement bag should be...

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...

O MY BAG, the celebrated sustainable brand from Amsterdam, is known for their beautiful eco-leather accessories. When I visited UK’s favorite fashion buying event in London, Pure London, I had the pleasure to meet with Paulien Wesselink, the founder and owner of O My Bag.
