Off the runway

Me, Sabrina (aftedrk) and Monique (girlscene) on the second rowJust as interesting as what comes down the runway is what the visitors of the show are wearing. From the boldest creations to jeans with Uggs, it's all there. For me it was an easy pick because this dress arrived on the same day as the show. Would love to wear it with bare legs and heels, but the snow is back... (It's one of fashions worst enemies. You won't believe how many girls I saw struggling in the snow on their heels!)...

Claes Iversen @ Amsterdam Fashion Week

Seeing what designers come up with season after season always inspires me, so I was glad to visit Claes Iversen's show today. The color scheme reminded me of that Dries van Noten collection from 1 or 2 years back, it's right on trend for this summer. What I love even more is his conceptual work, hence the post-it bridal dress. Last collection Claes did a post-it collared trench, so awesome! I might have to start sticking those little yellow fellas on to my mini skirt this summer... what do you think? Post-it or lose ...

The hall of shoe shame

This post couldn't be more obvious. Stopping the shopping isn't my cup of tea! A small part of me said not to get them, but the other part said 1) you don't have lace ups yet, 2) these are both really cheap, 3) you regretted not getting them last year. Am I now in the hall of shoe shame? Also...-> Ever since my previous post was up I got a virus scan when I opened my blog. So I deleted it. I'm extra coutious these days as I'm still recovering from the absolute horror I experienced when my laptop broke down on me three months ago with al my pictures and documents inside.-> Something really exciting is coming up in two weeks, can't wait...

Style file: Leather Light

We have exactly 9 weeks to go untill it's officially spring. And what beter way to count down than by having a weekly trend report? I'll be presenting my nine favorite trends of the season. So by the time it's spring you have your info and you're ready to shop!Those of you that live in leather skinnies and skirts, like me, are not to worry. Leather summer wear is making an entrance, and a big one at that. When stores like H&M and Zara are stocking up on leather shorts, you simply know there's no way back. The leather styles are a bit less biker / goth chic and more subtle and feminine so that's why I called it leather light. And most of it...

At the ELLE Style Awards

In describing my night at the ELLE Style Awards, I think pictures speak louder than words. The best part of the evening? Having a great time with two gorgeous and funny girls, Andy from Style Scrapbook and Nicole. Or sipping champagne and cranberry vodka with my favorite columnist Oscar (who we dubbed OsCarrie Bradshaw)... Or sitting front row at the H&M stylist fashion show... Or chit chatting and hitting the dancefloor with ever so stylish editor at large Cécile. OK, I can't decide! So just see for yourself...

Stop the shopping

This might come as a shock, but I'm kind of done with shopping for a while. I've got a pretty decent winter wardrobe and it feels good to just go with what I have instead of constantly craving new / more items. That's why I'll try to stop shopping untill all the spring collections are in stores. Can't wait! (I guess it's kind of a protest against winter as wel, hahah) These are my latest buys, and I'll keep you posted if I break the promise :PAnd again, I'm asking you to vote for me as a reporter in NY! You can do it more than once. So if you've already voted, you can vote again! ♥ All you have to do is click here ♥h&m triangle bra's and...

Style file: Assad Mounser

Although I love subtle and tiny jewelry, I constantly find myself craving for chunky neckwear and giant rings. One of my go-to spots to drewl is Assad Mounser. Amanda designs eye catchers for the neck and wrist that are decorated with anything a girl could ask for. And not only does Amanda have great talent, her personal style (she has a style blog too!) and sweet personality really top the bill. Let's read what she has to say about her own style and jewelry line! (And ps. please vote for me here! Would love that!)When getting dressed, do you pick your jewelry first and then build from that? Typically I start with a general theme or feeling......

Out with the old

Out with the old, in with the new! I had a great time celebrating the new year, having sushi and champaigne with my boyfriend and going dancing with the girls untill the sun came up. I'm excited for a new year to come. A new year means a fresh start filled with opportunities to seize. I will try to be the best person I can be and make some of my dreams come true this year. What are your NY resolutions? These shots were taken while getting dressed some time ago. After that I piled on tights, a cardi, a blazer and a coat. Wish I could just walk outside in this! Love this American Apparal tank, they have the perfect relaxed fit.And I have a favor...
