This trend is not a new one, but an oh-so-nice-one! We are awaiting another summer in which we are going to embrace the playfulness of fringe. It has a touch of bohemian, tribal, 70's and the Wild Wild West. It is an eye-catcher for sure. These bags are relaxed, effortlessly cool and incredibly fun. The style is ideal for the weekends as it is great to twirle around with a fringed bag. The designers Emilio...
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...
Many high-end fashion designers presented this trend on the catwalk. We go all white in the summer of 2016. Balenciaga loves the casual shopper model with many fringes while Dior carries the perfect duffle bag that looks very elegant and smooth. Ralph Lauren and Miu Miu combine the top handle trend with this one. The bags en blanc will be the taking over the streets the coming season, just like...

The big names in the fashion industry, like the fashion designers Miu Miu, Tods and Gucci also demonstrated on the catwalk...
Yesterday was the final day of Paris Haute Couture week. And again, it was mind-blowing. Haute Couture is a creation of exclusive custom-fitted design. Couture means dressmaking in French. This is high end fashion, made by hand from the start to finish only using the highest quality, expensive and exclusive materials. Not all labels can use this term as it has to meet certain well-defined standards. Only a...
Winter has officially started! It is cold, it is grey, it is windy, it is rainy and some snow even. However, to escape from this weather and to forget about my warm boots and woolen knits for a second, I was caught daydreaming about summer dresses, big flappy hats and the new bag trends that I saw in the new Spring/Summer 2016 collections that were shown in the fashion capitals...
This is what happens when I have been cleaning out my closet. I must say that I am not a huge fan of doing that, but I figured that I could not postpone this task any longer as there are so many people in the world that can actually use the clothes that are crammed in the back of my closet. So just before I went on my short...
Grab your bag and go to El Ancla, a little paradise near Marbella in Andalusia. This amazing pool and restaurant is located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in the south of Spain. I could write a 1,000 words article on how amazing this place is, but I guess the pictures should do the talking. Enjoy these shots that I made only three days ago. And I conclude...
This bag is my new partner in crime and has accompanied me ever since it was delivered at home. The white perforated Mi-Pac bum bag is very easy to combine with different outfits and styles as well as that it is wearable in different manners. This made this bag perfect for my weekend trip to London last week & I carried this bag in three different ways during...
