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...
Pencil skirt with floral tights
Again an outfit from my own wardrobe; I combined a pencil skirt with floral tights. The tights were the starting point of this outfit as I had worn them only twice (see this post for the tights with a red skirt). Such a shame because I think they are so cute. Covering...
Leather trousers with a white blazer
Black leather trousers with a white blazer. Really, the simplest outfit to create, and every item was already in my wardrobe. I am on a roll with my sustainable choices here. Of course, I had to add colour to a black and white outfit. That is like a blank canvas to...
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...
About me
