Black leather dress with combat boots
What a sunny but rather cold day it was, the day Marcella and I visited the old town of Alkmaar. I looked through my wardrobe for an outfit that was warm, comfortable and could be photographed for a blog post. My black leather dress with combat boots and thick tights...
Combining winter and summer clothes
Another outfit created with my own wardrobe items. One day I saw that this yellow and black pleated skirt had olive as a third colour. A perfect match with my olive coloured jumper. Combining winter and summer clothes is something I normally would never do. It means a...
Patterned trousers and burgundy boots
My friend Marianne's daughter is a stylist and she is really good. I follow her Instagram account and got inspired to create an outfit with patterned trousers and burgundy boots. Below: This is my example, the post by Marianne's daughter. Had I paid a bit more...
Wide black skirt with pale yellow jumper
Windy photo shoot with a combination of items from my wardrobe. The wide black skirt and pale yellow jumper were the result of trying which skirt would create a flattering silhouette with the short jumper. As I had worn the jumper with black trousers, I took the easy...
Black and white blazer
Beginning the new year with a sin, a new purchase, this black and white blazer by Copenhagen Muse. It doesn't count though as I bought it in 2022 and I'll stick to that. I bought it at kpa.haarlem where it was slightly cheaper than on the brand website. Of course I...
Wide black trousers and a big yellow jumper
Before I begin, I want to wish you all a very merry Christmas. You might be expecting a Christmassy post but no, you will get that after Christmas, haha. Loes was my photographer and I created an outfit with my wide black trousers and a big yellow jumper from my own...
Shades of brown with jumper and patterned trousers
Finding locations for a photo shoot is always difficult and even more in winter. This brown jumper and patterned trousers had not been shown on the blog yet and it is a warm outfit. Just right for this cold weather. In other parts of the world it is much colder, but...
Olive coloured wide trousers
My friend Marjolein suggested we'd go to Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen to do a photo shoot as it is a building with a lot of light. Luck was with us that day as there was no rain and even some sunshine, so no need for indoor outfit photos. Above: This is taken from the...
Wide cream trousers with an oversized blazer in Utrecht
Combining clothes which are already in your wardrobe is sustainable and THE thing to do nowadays. That, and buying second-hand. Both are challenging for me. 1) Because I can never imagine how something will look on me, when I see it hanging on the rack in a shop and...
About me
My name is Greetje, I am Dutch, born in 1954. Married and living with husband Ron, dog Watson and cat Sophie. Pretty stepdaughter is married to a lovely man. This blog is my hobby. I hope to entertain you and make you smile or laugh with the content I post. It is for everyone, but probably most appealing to women over 40, like me (oh, all right...I am way over).
