Pebble coloured trousers with a neon pink top
Remember I showed you these trousers before with an orange and cream top and I didn't like the combination? This time I combined the pebble coloured trousers with a neon pink top and I love it. I think both are a bit 'arty'. I wore this combination when I met Janna at...
Black linen dress with Angela Caputi necklace
The photos for this blog post were taken with an iPhone which means the quality isn't that good. My phone had to do for taking photos as I was walking through Amsterdam all day with Sylvia of 40PlusStyle. My normal camera (plus flashlight) is terribly heavy. Silvia is...
Cobalt blue trousers with a green and white necklace by Angela Caputi
Wide leg trousers are so comfortable! I completely fell for these cobalt blue trousers by COS. This time I was so wise to test out the outfit before I used it for a blog photo shoot. By wearing it, you'll notice what needs to be adjusted. In this case, the waistband...
With blog reader Susan in Amsterdam
A different post this week than usual as I was pretty ill. No opportunity to do an outfit photo shoot. It probably started with a virus three weeks ago and I thought it had gone so ventured out again, only to pick up another virus. Or, the one that I already had, got...
Wide cream trousers and Shopping Saturday
All my friends are dear to me and my heart is capable of loving them all equally. When you make a new friend, it doesn't take any love away from your old friends, your heart just expands. It is such a magnificent phenomenon. You are about to see many photos of my day...
Monochrome cream outfit
Sometimes I devise an outfit to purposely avoid bright colours, such as the styling of this monochrome cream outfit. It appeals to me because of its sophisticated vibe. Couldn't resist to throw in the bright green earrings though. The green/purple/yellow scarf around...
A polka dot dress with trousers
Apologies for the bad quality of the photos in this post. I wasn't planning on using them, but decided to do so anyway. The quality is also bad because of the recent iPhone update. The 'improvement' Apple made, was to switch photos from JPG format to HEIC format. And...
Kenzo top with blue trousers
On a little tour through Amsterdam I wore my Kenzo top with blue trousers and very comfortable golden sandals. The top has been in my wardrobe for many years but I used to wear it only with a jacket because the sleeves are quite short and my upper arms very wrinkly....
Jeans dress with a printed top
The idea of wearing this Sportmax jeans dress with a printed top came from an advertisement by couturier Mart Visser. The printed top is his design and he advertised it with a jeans dress. Such a dress was already in my wardrobe for years (original post and post where...
Black and white blazer Mart Visser
Sometimes you get lucky, like with this black and white blazer by Mart Visser. For those who don't know, Mart Visser is a well-known couturier from the Netherlands with a side collection of ready-to-wear. My Instagram friend Janna of @timelessstyle.nl and I visited a...
Blue and white top with yellow trousers in Amsterdam
From the minute I spotted this blue and white top in March 2020, I loved it and it hasn't disappointed me since. It is from Essentiel Antwerp, as is the silver belt. You have seen it before in this post with white trousers and silver high heels and in this post with...
Long green linen coat, worn as a jacket
Bicycles, a bridge, canals, old houses...that's Amsterdam for you. The outfit of the week is a long green linen coat, which I am wearing as a jacket. Apparently I am going through a phase of wearing coats and dresses as a jacket. (It might not look green to you but...
