#POSEONTOUR

Although my birthday was almost two months ago (7 weeks and 6 days to be exact), I still wanted
to share this celebration look with you! And this wasn't just a 25th b-day party, this was my very first 

bare legged birthday, hell yes! Maybe the most normal thing on earth for some of you, but for a
Winter kid like moi, this is execptional. And awesome.

I had the coolest birthday ever. Surrounded by family, jumping around in a Summer dress, watching
the sunset and getting amazing presents like these cutiepie shoes I'm wearing (Masha danki Kimmie!)
My parents got me - my very first - surfing lessons, woah! That was amazeballs.

Oh, and I got this trip to New York from le boyfriend, no biggie... (OMG I can't breathe!!!)

STRIKE A POSE

Yes it's a dress, not just a dress. Nothing more, nothing less. Okay, and some major killer heels and 

the most colorful place in Amsterdam ever. But if you look at my outfit, it's actually quite "simple". 

Well, simple in my way then… ;) 

I love to wear colors. It makes me happy. But because of this rainbow place I didn't need to 

wear any colors at all. Because, wow! How fascinating is this spot?! That made me happy enough. 

Imagine me wearing colors at this location. Woah!!! I think I would have been trippin', haha.

This is the most photographed place from Amsterdam. So if you're here, this is definitely a hotspot 

to check out :)

STRIKE A POSE

Having lunch with fellow blogger Anne-Britt always means photoshoots like this. Awesome it is.
And I was not having fries for lunch - okay, for dinner - we had a lovely sandwich at a cute little
place called Puccini. Although I wouldn't mind to try a McKenzo burger... ;-)

STRIKE A POSE

And I definitely got my candy at the River Island Salon Show. I was invited to check out 

their Fall/Winter 2013 collection with lots of food, fashion and friends. 

What else does a girl want?!

When I'm going to an event I always like to wear a piece of the brand itself, et voila. 

My retro River Island playsuit that makes your day because of all these amazing colors.

And love these shots taken by my cutie Valentino :)

STRIKE A POSE

While I was driving trough Amsterdam for work, I came across this wall. I was looking at 

my shoes and looking at the wall. Shoes, wall, shoes, wall. And then I stopped the car in 

a split of a second and screamed to Joy: "Outfit pictures! Here! Yay!" That's what I call a bit 

of a lucky moment :)

STRIKE A POSE

After a having a drink at the opening of Denham's newest store, 

I also went on an unexpected visit to the opening of a new vintage store called Phintage. 

After lots of compliments about my Marc by Marc Jacobs jeans - which I am obsessed 

with lately - something magical happened. I found a little treasure in that store what was 

on my bucket list of "items to have", YAYY! Stay tuned... ;)

COLLECTION

It looked like I took some days off on the blog but it's actually the exact opposite.
For me it was a mission impossible to update you about all my fashion week stories. 
I was so busy I didn't even had the time to sad down and relax for a minute (well yeah,
at 3 in the morning?) so be prepared for some mega posts this upcoming week! 
Are you ready?

All dressed up in my Like This outfit I went to my first fashion show of the day; Gsus.
Hot men alarm! Talking about hot men, keep an eye on my blog for some very sexy 
eye candy ;) Okay back to "business"...

I'm obsessed with the printed suits from the Gsus collection (photo 6) but for my own 
personal reasons I'm not really into the military trend anymore...
I was also able to take a peek backstage and after that the Sjaak Hullekes show started. 
Lara Rose, one of my AFW partnersin crime, and I watched and enjoyed, of course...

( P.S. Rein, you rocked! :) )

STRIKE A POSE

I just got back from Paris and I already booked a trip to Berlin for Berlin Fashion Week. 

Hello 2013! This year starts exactly how I wanted to be; perfect. And I have so many 

more plans for the future. Do you have any goals for this year?

STRIKE A POSE

Happy friday!!! 

STRIKE A POSE

We all know the sequin jacket from Balmain (AW 12/13) and the incredible baroque trend 

for this season. So why not combining both on a more affordable way? That's what I did with 

this vintage gilet (I totally forgot about, whoops...) 

Of course I dream of a wardrobe full of Balmain (I'm already blessed I own one t-shirt) but 

before my dream comes true I have to deal with the "a la Balmain-ish" pieces I own ;-)

STRIKE A POSE

A typical Autumn post is definitely a must. Although the weather was very soft I wasn't 

required to wear a knit of sweater yet. And that's what I call an Autumn party! 

That's not the only party around here. ADE (Amsterdam Dance Event) is one of the 

biggest parties in Amsterdam but I haven't been to one, maybe tonight...?

STRIKE A POSE

"If you love it like I love it

And you feel what I feel inside

If you feel it, say hell yeah"

I wish you all a lovely sunday! ;)

STRIKE A POSE

After the (not so succeeded) VFNO I crashed the night at my girl Kim and the day after 

we went to the Albert Cuyp market and thought this was the perfect place to shoot my outfit.

EVENT

The pictures are looking more fun than it actually was... 

Vogue Fashion's night out (VFNO) in Amsterdam was to me not such a big success. 

Maybe because it's the first time or maybe I expected a lot more from it. 

But at my opinion it was just like a busy shopping night and the only thing that was different 

than any other shopping night was that there was alcohol and a HUGE Vogue logo with 

roses (which was actually very delicious & beautiful)... 

(First 2 pictures by Felipe Espinosa)

EVENT

Put a professional dancer and a famous Dutch designer together and you have the perfect match. 

And that shows last thursday at exhibition 'HOPE' by Antoine Peters at the Glamcult HQ in Amsterdam. 

I have a thing for certain color mixing such as Antoine used on this arm- and headless silhouette. 

Loved it! It was like a fantasy figure that could change in every shape you could think of.

(P.S. Click below to watch the video!)

STRIKE A POSE

No Rio de Janeiro, no Sweden, it's Bonaire! Unfornutaly it's not me who's going, but my 

parents do! I dropped them of at Schiphol and we decided to make some pictures at the 

rooftop. Have fun mom & dad! I'm a bit jealous though...

TRAVEL DIARY

Just a quick update to let you know I've arrived in Paris yesterday evening for a shop-stop! 

I'm going to say hi to Isabel Marant, Louboutin, Acne and a few others ;) and after that, 

heading home again. See you in Holland!

TRAVEL DIARY

Thursday morning 8 o'clock the holiday begun. A 13 hours drive to Saint-Tropez but made a 

stop right after Lyon in a small town called Givors at a Motel. 

What you probably already expecting is that I'm wearing an outfit that's as comfi as possible. 

Who's going on a road trip wearing high heels? Victoria Beckham maybe? Bu not even me!

Have them with me though but not for now ;)

Found those (verrrrry) old Converse shoes in my wardrobe, almost wanted to sell them but 

I think I kinda like them again! They make me think of the Prada SS12 collection. 

STRIKE A POSE

If you're wearing this on the streets, people are looking at you like you're some kind of alien 

but God, you have no idea how much I LOVE those Blackmilk leggings. So different and 

so comfi. And I couldn't wish for a better matching t-shirt thanks to my friend Angelique 

from Nola.Nova.

STRIKE A POSE

Finally beach time! (Which is already over because it's raining again...) 

Wearing my favorite brand, Balmain <3 Actually it's a mens shirt but I gave it a girly twist 

by making a dress of it. 

TIP: forgot your hair tie, no worries, use your ring to make a ponytail. (photo 5)
