Denim jacket, orange ankle boots and an orange coat
Buying a denim jacket when you know that this shade doesn't suit you, isn't the smartest move to make. Still, it is in my wardrobe, which means I either make it work or give it away. By adding a blue, white and yellow scarf, there is more 'light' near my face. I...
Green houndstooth blazer with boyfriend jeans
Remember this houndstooth blazer? The first time you saw it on my blog was with a pair of cream trousers. You weren't impressed. At least that was my conclusion from comments on the blog and on Instagram. Perhaps you thought it was too formal? You suggested jeans. Of...
Python print boots and a green jacket
The concept behind this photoshoot was good: let's go to the garden behind the Ripperda kazerne (kazerne = barracks) and shoot an outfit with these python print boots. In reality, not such a good idea. The garden wasn't very nice (it is winter... duh) and the barracks...
Gold and black jacket, bought second-hand
Loes photographed one of my Christmas outfits, this gold and black jacket from Lolly's Laundry. I bought it second-hand with the original price tag still on it. Listening to my friend Marjolein's suggestion, I altered the high neckline into a small V. I didn't find it...
Multi-coloured knitted cardigan and fun in a store
Kitty had asked Karlijn, the owner of kpa.haarlem, one of my favourite stores, whether it would be all right if we had a photo shoot in her store if it was a cold day. She agreed and of course I chose to feature the multi-coloured knitted cardigan I had bought there a...
A Chanel style blazer and Shopping Saturday
The only way I would wear a Chanel style blazer like this, is with jeans. Usually I would go for the real thing, but that is out of my reach. Besides I wouldn't wear it that often. My friend Marianne gave it to me and in turn it had been gifted to her by her daughter....
Short blue coat and white lace-up booties
Apart from a simple cream top, you can see all my recent purchases in this post. (Remember when I "fell off the no-shopping wagon" when I was cruising Haarlem with my friend Marja, a couple of weeks ago?) I started my shopping with a short blue coat from one of my...
A yellow jacket with black leather trousers
Normally I would have used a head-to-toe shot of my outfit to start with. Only such a photo of Haarlem's town hall is too good not to use as a first picture. Besides, you cannot miss that yellow jacket with black leather trousers. The jacket makes for a beautiful pop...
How to style an outfit with clothes from your own wardrobe
Finally a post about 'How to style an outfit with clothes from your own wardrobe'. You have suggested this many times and asked me to show the process. So, here it is. When you have seen the many, many crappy iPhone photos, all looking more or less the same, you will...
