#POSEONTOUR / ROUTE AUSTRALIA

POSE-aussie-1.1
In less than two weeks and 3000KM further - 3324 to be exact - we accomplished our own
improvised "Route Australia": PERTH - GERALDTON - CARNARVON - CORAL BAY - 
EXMOUTH - DENHAM - MONKEY MIA - KALBARRI - JURIEN BAY - PERTH.
(Can I get an) AMEN! Thank you.

From swimming with wild dolphins to an unexpected sky dive, livin' the (camping) life, silent disco's
at Fringe World Festival and running around topless on the highways of Western Australia. 
Can you imagine the song "Time Of My Life" pops in my head every single time I'm getting 

"An unexpected sky dive." ME? That girl that was too afraid to go on a plain and now jumped out 
of one? Well, that escalated quickly... It was my birthday present from the beloved BF. (Otherwise 
wouldn't have done it, EVER) Ihavethecutestboyfriendintheworld.com. Three guesses what my 
reaction was when he told me what he got me for my birthday: "HAHAHAHA!" But when the 
awkward silence began, I realized he was talking serious F-ing business. I ignored his proposal for 
as long as I could, but as we're getting closer to Jurien Bay, my inner-yolo came out and was totally 
in for it.

Endless road views, playing with quokka's (YAS I also scored a selfie!) and spotting kangaroos.
This was by far the best vacation EVAH.

#POSEONTOUR / #SHOEPARTY WITH SYLVIE MEIS IN HAMBURG

POSE-hamburg-sylviemeis-1.1
...Stays in Hamburg. And here on the blog, of course ;-) So brace yourself, an overload of Hamburg 
pics is coming! #TheBloggerArmy was taking over this city last week for exactly 24 hours(!) And 
our weapons were shoes, lots of shoes. VanHaren shoes to be exact. The captain of our squad? 
The one and only Miss Sylvie Meis. And I had a date with her...

...A speed date to be exact. So cute Sylvie was all dressed up for our speed date! But Sylvie
isn't Sylvie without looking like a Hollywood star that walked right of a red carpet, or out of
Madam Tussauds. She looks as perf as a doll! Imagine how I felt next to this woman with my knitted
nerdy sweater, the most basic jeans ever and some flat, black booties... Hashtag underdressed!
Which was a totally new experience since I'm always "that girl" that's even more dressed up than the
bride on her wedding.

So this is how our (speed) date went: Sylvie: "Oeh, I looove your bag!" Me: "Thanks! Wanna swap it
for your dress?" Sylvie: "Hahaha!" Me: ":)". Photographer: "3, 2, 1... *Click*." We had fun.
The End.

#POSEONTOUR: NEW YORK CITY GUIDE FOR DUMMIES

POSE-NYC-1
Like you read before: a few weeks ago I still was a NYC virgin. Luckily time has changed and I 
 can proudly say I f-i-n-a-l-l-y visited this beyond ah-some city! Now I want to share all my tips 
 with you. The (with) Who, What (to do), When (to stay), Where (to go), Why (should you visit) 
and How (long)

Remember, this is a guide for Dummies! Not for the advanced NYC travelers among us. 
 Or maybe you can also catch up some stuff you haven't discovered yet... Are you ready?!

#POSEONTOUR : ALL MY PFW LOOKS

pose-PFW-1
From the crazy New York City to the all time classic Paris. I must say: R-E-S-P-E-C-T for those 
who were in London and Milano inbetween as well. Because Jesus Christ! I'm exhausted...
 Fashion Month is hard, trust me. And I only did half of it! How do they keep up after this NYC 
 jetlag and still look so fresh at "the end station" called Paris? I'm still figuring out.

Let's talk Fashion! From the patchwork trend to the metallic trend, the GIANT sunglasses and 
flair pants. In all my 10 Fashion Week looks I wore another Fall/Winter trend what suits me most. 
And here are my last 5 looks for Paris Fashion Week. Now the big Q: what's your favorite?!

And what comes after all Fashion Weeks? The Cosmo Hairstyling Color Weeks! From Monday
 the 12th until Sunday the 25th of October you get a free color treatment at all Cosmo Hairstyling
 salons, in combination with a Cut&Style, Care&Style and Roots treatment. You can choose:
 babylights, balayage or bronde. Guess what I had chosen...

Now let's talk beauty! For me it was time for a new coupe. Did you noticed? You have to 'cause,
Cosmo Hairstyling cut off almost three meters of my hair and from a granny grey I'm a Bronde
lady now.  I'm more than happy with it! So what color are you going for?

#POSEONTOUR: MY VIEW ON NYC

POSE-my-view-on-nyc-1
That moment after no sleep, a 7 hours flight and a war with your - way too heavy - suitcase in the
subway, you walk up the stairs from hell (I just meant the subway, and I was overreacting a bit), you
look up and there's no end at looking up because of these huge buildings. Then I realized, oh my
F-ing god, I'm literally in New York City right now. And at that moment, I lost my NYC virginity

 From sharing the plane with Doutzen Kroes to seeing Adriana Lima shining on the runway and
having Karlie Kloss as your neighbour while having lunch. And this was just a little glimpse of
my New York City "virginity" story. Yep, you read that right, I was a NYC virgin, or better said:
(until last week) I've never ever visited this city in my whole life before (I know I know, shame 
on me!) 

"I've never been to New York before." said no fashion junkie ever. Well, I said it and everybody was
always very surprised when this came out of my mouth. As blogger and fashionista (although I hate 
these two words, I can't found a better name for it) in heart and soul, visiting The Big Apple is just a
must. En when does this fashionista visit this city? Exactly, during New York Fashion Week.

The time had come: NYC brace yourself because HERE I COME! Or do I have to brace myself...?

#POSEONTOUR: ALL MY NYFW LOOKS

POSE-nyfw-looks-1
Amsterdam - New York City - Amsterdam - Paris. Yep, 'cause "honey I'm home!" But not for 
long though. Paris is waiting for me and guess why? Because of Fashion Week, again. But let's 
not go too fast and start at the beginning, which is #NYFW

I must tell you, as it was my very first time in this 12 million inhabitable city, WOW, I have no
words for it. Actually I do have a lot of words for it - more than a 1.000 to be exact - but I will tell 
you all about it very very soon. Let's talk about my New York (Fashion Week) looks first...

From culottes to patched mom jeans to disco ball suits and Mc Donald looks. Here are alllll my 
NYFW outfits in a row. And hell yeah I wanna know what you think!

#TIMEMACHINE / MY MIND SAYS IBIZA...

POSE-ibiza-1
...But work won't let me! ;) While Poser Danielle is having a jealous making wonderful time on Ibiza 
right now (I don't wanna speak for her, but I'm sure she's having fun), I'm working my butt of over 
here to hopefully go to Ibiza later this year. This island is just magical. And no, it will never, I repeat: 
never be an overrated island.

 I must say I'm not complaining at all. Since I'm living in one of the best cities in the world, been to Ibiza 
 twice already, a few months ago I was doing exactly nothing on Bonaire, oh and New York is in the planning
 this year. And all this with a fear of flying. I think I finally can say I'm over that and I feel on top of the world!

Have you ever been to Ibiza? And do you have travel plans for this year?!

#TIMEMACHINE / WHEN WE'RE IN SAINT-TROPEZ

POSE-saint-tropez-cannes-1
While everybody is having an unforgettable time in Cannes at the Film Festival - and I'm not - I was
looking back to my unforgetabble time at practically her neighbour; Saint-Tropez. Which I visited in
 August 2012. Mother of God, is it three years already?!

No red carpet events, uncomfortable - but oh so gorgeous  - gowns or surrounded by celebs. But
trust me, Saint-Tropez has glam. Three years ago we stayed at a glamping. Yes, you read that right;
a glamping. And I wanna go back right now. But this time with a visite to Cannes (and maybe
 Monaco?) as well ;)

Have you ever been to Cannes, Saint-Tropez or some other city nearby?

POSE-heartbreak-hotel-1

In the first two pics this place looks so peaceful and full of colors. But it's actually the abandoned
hotel on Bonaire from an old drugs dealer. Yep... With all kinds of scary ghost stories - which my 
niece luckily told me yesterday on WhatsApp - where I (thank God!) didn't knew about!

Despite everything, I was totally in my element with my off duty look ;) And distracted by this
graffiti on the wall (Especially the donuts on the last pic!) Can I have this at home too? Haha!
FYI: kidding. Of course.

POSE-sun-of-a-beach-1
Oh sun of a beach I freaking miss you! Missing this whole Summer vibe which will never ever come to
Amsterdam, ever. I feel so sorry for my Caribbean family! Not that they're probably sweating  like a pig
right now, but because they're moving back to Holland this Summer. Yay for me! And nay for them...

I wanna wear this bikini again, right now! It sparkles and it makes me happy. Just like my cool zebra pet.
And of course I meant the towel...

(PS. Who's got the hottest ass of them all on the last picture?! Haha!)

#SNEAKPEEK

POSE-sneakpeek-salty-1
Being all mysterious and sh*t... Showing my boobies to the sea, haha just kidding ;)
I'm wearing this gorgeous bikini which I'm gonna show you later. First this towel that
keeps me nice and warm in 30 degrees... ;P

POSE-sunset-bonaire-1
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!!!)

POSE-caribbean-woods-1
I've shown you a lot of palm trees, bikini's and socks and sandals. No, that last one was just
once in Paris, okay. But besides all the coconuts and stuff there are these unexpected hidden
treasures on Bonaire.

I also wanted to show this other side of the island; Put Bronswinkel. That maybe doesn't sound
that flattering as this place looks, and that is just totally true :) The sun shines through the woods
and besides the silence you hear the birds sing. That's is just a magical OMG moment which I
insist you should experience once in your life. Amen!

#POSEONTOUR

pose-tropical-holic-1
I think I'm creating this new addiction called traveling. Of course I always loved traveling - like 
almost everyone of you - but something always kept me back, and that was flying. I was so scared at 
an unhealthy level, that sometimes it wasn't even fun anymore and asked myself: "why am I even 
going when it's no fun?!" So it became this mind play game.

I'm a perfectionist. With work, in private life, with anything. My big challenge was to overcome this 
fear by winning from it. So for years and years - with the worst thoughts and feelings you can't even 
imagine - I always pushed myself to this breaking point and I entered my big friend; le plain... 

We builded this love/hate relationship. Oh and I hate him though, but without him I can't visit my 
dream destinations which are on my bucket list. Now after years it's going so well I'm creating this 
travel addiction and makes it 100% fun and excited (how it's supposed to be!) Which to me says 
I overcome my biggest fear. HA, I WON!!! 

Is someone with me? That is or has overcome it's biggest fear? Tell me, I would love 
to hear all your stories!

(PS. And let me tell you something; overcome your fear feels like the best thing in the world!)

POSE-bonaire-bikini-1
While I'm here in Amsterdam almost blown away by a force 10 gale, I'm even making myself jealous 
by seeing this paradise place again...Spring, where the f*ck are you? Come on... I'm writing about
 my 35 degrees bikini post in almost tornado weather!

Okay okay, I'm overreacting a little. Only about the tornado thing. 'Cause it actually was 35 degrees 
while I was shooting this wannabe Victoria's Secret shoot. 

And why are bloggers always talking about the weather? Can someone tell me that? 
Because I even can't.

I just love to make ya curious! ;) So here a little peek about how the upcoming post is going to look like.
What do you think so far?!

POSE-barbie-bonaire-1.2
They call thé street of Bonaire; Kaya Grandi. Which actually means "BIG street". The thing is, 
it's actually very cute and little. As a matter of fact everything's cute and little on Bonaire. 
Except for their butts though! ;)

Strolling around in the city of Bonaire, ice cream licking, cocktail sipping, skinny dipping and 
cute boys winking. And I think I just made my own song, haha!

#PFW

POSE-paris-fashionweek-pfw-1
Oh god, pinch me please! Did I really went to Paris Fashion Week a.k.a. PFW? Or was it all a dream?
So dreams do come true! I´ve been telling my friends for years and years that I wanted to go to Paris 
Fashion Week. And last week it was on!

You may be thinking I went very chic by plane (or train?) But you're completely wrong. I went 
by car - no, I'm not kidding - with my (sales)partner in crime Eva, just like freshman's do, right? ;)

After a 6 hours drive - just as long as the New Yorkers went by plane - we arrived and we were too 
late for the Acne Studios show. Well, that started out great!... Not. But this was just the beginning...

POSE-fleur-1
Just call me Fleur from now on. And no, I'm not schizophrenic. If you paid a little tiny bit attention in 
French class - if you're not a Frenchie of course - you must know what "la fleur" means ;) Hashtag #ImWearingIt!

So since I'm missing this weather already and I'm still in my Parisienne vibe, I thought this was the best 
look to show you today. Oh gosh, I have so much to tell you!!! And actually it's too much to put in one post.
Two major things: Bonaire and Paris (Fashion Week!)

And how are you doing lately!? Did I missed anything? ;)
(PS. To all the Fleur's in the world; I love your name!)
