Green fantasy tights
Inspired by my own posts on floral tights, I dug out my green fantasy tights, which I first wore with a white dress from the Max Mara outlet. Hadn't worn that outfit for a year due to Knee (+ high heels). As I am on the mend, I could wear it for Christmas at my mum's...

Wide black midi skirt, styled 4 times
The day Kitty and I did this shoot was cold, which meant we needed an indoor place. The item I picked was this wide black midi skirt. Not really being able to style it properly for two years, I now found 9 ways to wear it. Just by shopping my own wardrobe and by...

Long striped tunic
In my post Shopping with Sabine in Amsterdam, Cornelis Schuytstraat, I gave you a little preview of this long striped tunic. Or is it a shirt? I don't know. That day I was wearing my boyfriend jeans and these white sneakers. Somehow I cannot style it differently. To...

Red trouser suit that roars…
Remember, two weeks ago I showed you this jacket in my post Shopping in Amsterdam, Cornelis Schuytstraat? Nynke (owner of the shop Wynia) tracked the jacket down in my size. Cheerfully I went back to the shop, determined to buy only the jacket. But... as I looked at...

Having fun with my friend Lia at a Food Truck Market
My biggest joy in life is spending time with friends, which always means laughing a lot. As I cannot walk very far yet, my friend Lia came to me. It was lovely weather, not too hot, not too cold, although Lia was doubting her choice of knee-high trousers and sandals....

Do you mind standing out? I don’t.
The Haarlem Bloggers got together one last time this summer and I decided to wear my bright pink sweater. I bought it from South of the River and I love the impact of the colour. Yes, it leaps out at you. Fine by me. Sylvia of 40PlusStyle has left for New York, Anja...

Bright yellow top with bell sleeves
Absolutely not everybody's taste, this bright yellow top with bell sleeves. When you enter a room, dressed like this, you definitely stand out. For me that is a bonus. I don't want to be invisible, quite the contrary. At my work we were psychologially dissecting each...

Blue and pink striped dress
Hurray, a dress for a change! Bought this beauty a few months ago, even though it was blue. Again. Most of the dresses and tunics I bought in these past years were blue with white (and yellow). This is a blue and pink striped dress. Does that count as different? It is...
