So you can probably tell from the pictures where these shots were taken. Indeed, Tuscany, Italy, one of the most beautiful places in the world with many tiny romantic villages! A few weeks ago I flew in to spend a couple of beautiful sunny days. As I only went for four days, I decided to only bring along a trolley. A new one as my former suitcase literally had...
When I studied in London five years ago I had a special Saturday ritual. I loved waking up late as I worked in the local pub on Friday night, going to Portobello Road, visiting TopShop on Oxford Circus whereafter I would dress up for the big party night out. I don't know about you, but when I go abroad, it is easy to be infatuated by a local fashion brand....
Today I show you a piece of Wayuu art, the perfect example of what I call "pure eye candy". I am talking about the Wayuu mochilla bag that is hanging around my shoulders. This bag has been knitted by the Wayuu Indian Tribe in Colombia that is celebrated for its colorful and cultural bags and have been producing these accessories for many generations. The Wayuu people are known as the people of the...

It therefore kind of feels like this French Connection Selene Sequin Mermaid Dress...

I am a huge fan of...
A leopard bag never gets out of style! It is timeless, makes a statement and has a magical effect on outfits. Whether your outfit is plain and simple or colorful and embellished, the leopard will be a match. Olivia Palermo proved that leopard even teams with a floral print and orange leather and black fur (check my pinterest to see the picture). Leopard is a recurring trend and perfect for the...
"My Milkshake brings all the boys to the yard…!" Do you remember the lyrics of this popular song by Kelis? I loved to sing along and dance while this song was bumping through the speakers. With these sunny days ahead I just can’t wait to go partying, especially at a superb festival. You probably already bought your tickets for the festivals this season and you might have even been...
Today I show you an outfit I could wear every day of the year. 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...
