The Haarlem bloggers got together again. From left to right: Sylvia of 40PlusStyle, Misja of MisjaB, Anja of Curly Traveller and me. So nice when we are all together in the Netherlands. It was horrible weather that day: fierce wind and rain. We only had to walk a...

Black sandals with block heel
Believe it or not, I have a terrible taste in shoes. Even my mother told me as a teenager how old-fashioned my shoe choices were. Which is why I challenge myself and pay attention to shoe fashion. These black sandals with block heel would not be the kind I'd normally...

My weekend with Nikki of Midlifechic

White flared trousers with a bright blue jacket
Right... this is what I call a magazine worthy photo. And one where you can actually see the outfit. OK, the shoes are a little hidden, but the main features are the white flared trousers and the bright blue jacket. The jacket is a couple of years old and I got the...

Green shirt with pink sequins
Again, a short post. The day was really all about catching up with my friend Helena and I sort of blackmailed her into taking blog photos. Only this was not the intention of the day so we didn't spend too much time on it. Although Helena might see this differently...

My name is Greetje Kamminga, I am Dutch, born in 1954. Married and living with husband Ron, dog and cat. Pretty stepdaughter lives on her own. There is little time in my life to blog with a full-time job, but I try. It is for everyone, but probably most appealing to women over 40, like me (oh, all right...I am way over).
