FASHION: What's in a name?

The ultimate proof that you've made it big time as a celebrity is the fact that a bag is being named after you. Below you see my favourite bags named after celebrities. Which is your favourite?

NL: Het ultieme bewijs dat je het gemaakt hebt als beroemdheid, is als er een exclusieve tas naar jou genoemd word. Hieronder zie je enkele van mijn favoriete tassen die de naam van een beroemdheid dragen. Welke is jouw favoriet? 

1) One of Michael Kors's favourite models, Mirande Kerr, has a bag named after her: the Miranda, available here.

2) I wrote about this bag earlier: The Cara Delevingne bag from Mulberry. Available here. 

3) Maybe the most popular and craved bag of all time: The (Jane) Birkin by Hermès. Buy vintage here. 

4) Jackie Onassis inspired the Jackie bag from Gucci. Available here. 

OUTFIT: Dinner Date

Last May, my parents celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary. Due to different circumstances we hadn't had the chance yet to celebrate. Now everyone from our family was having some time off from work, it was the perfect opportunity to have a celebratory dinner at a restaurant in Eijsden. This is a small, Dutch town. It has still a very authentic look and this makes it very cute.

For this evening I decided to wear my new, favorite skirt from Patrizia Pepe again. I've already worn it a dozen times since I bought it on holiday in Tuscany. Do you like my outfit?

NL: Afgelopen mei vierden mijn ouders hun 25e huwelijksverjaardag. Door verschillende omstandigheden hadden we nog niet de kans gehad om dit te vieren. Nu iedereen wat verlof had, was het de perfecte gelegenheid om deze schade in te halen. We hadden een familie etentje in een restaurant in Eijsden. Dit een klein, Nederlands plaatsje. Het heeft een erg authentieke look waardoor het echt een fotogeniek dorp is.

Voor deze gelegenheid besloot ik mijn nieuwe en favoriete rok van Patrizia Pepe nog eens te dragen. Ik heb deze al talloze keren gedragen sinds ik terug ben van vakantie in Toscane. Wat vind je van mijn outfit?

OUTFIT: Changes

The title from this outfit post doesn't really refer to my outfit but to some changes I have been planning for my blog. For example: I'm thinking about blogging in both English and Dutch. Dutch is my mother tongue and most of my readers are from Belgium and the Netherlands. What is your opinion about it? Would your prefer to read my articles in Dutch? Do you think it will help me and attrack more readers?

So now on to the real reason from this post, another outfit shoot I did with  Anil Bayrak Photography. I really love this outfit, unfortunately I only have two pictures to show you. Bright blue is really one of my favourite colors each spring. The earrings are already quite old but I still use them a lot. A while ago I wrote an inspirational post on different ways to wear a scarf therefore I decided to wear my Hermès scarf as a headband.

I'm a huge fun of scarfs and tend to wear them in different ways.

This trend is really going strong and gives a bohemian touch to your outfit. Here are some different ways you can wair a scarf.

1. Scarf as headband

2. Scarf as belt

3. Bag styled with a scarf

4. Scarf around your neck

5. Scarf as bracelet

Fashion Trends spring 2014

Spring is right around the corner and this includes a cleaning up your closet and time for some new items. If you want to make your closet spring proof, keep these trends in mind.

Flower power

I don't think this trend needs any explanation. The first thing that pops into mind when you think about spring are of course flowers.

A very classic and must-have piece for your wardrobe. A shirt is very versatile and it can by chic or sexy.

Water world

Remarkably a lot of designers used water prints in their collections. Hopefully the weather isn't going to be as wet as these outfits.
