Queensday

Today is actually a really big day in The Netherlands. It's queensday, the 30th of april 2013. Not just a normal queensday, but the day when our prince will become THE king. Since I'm making my posts in advance, I'll probably be out on the streets wearing something orange and party like there is no tomorrow. Thankfully I have a couple of days off. And while preparing things for my big Thailand trip I'm also enjoying my free time to the max! :)

FLYING: Verjaardag in Nice

I requested a nightstop in Bologna on my birthday, but since that was impossible for rostering to do, I went to Nice on the 24th of april and one day later to Bologna. We arrived around 5PM and went directly to the beach. We had a birthday cocktail at a beach club (thanks to my collegues) and afterwards we had a lovely diner in the harbour.

We watched the sunset and the moonrise while enjoying the 20 degrees celcius spring weather. It was a beautiful evening and I really enjoyed the my birthday in Nice. However, due to the short stop, we decided to have a really good diner the next day in Bologna. More about that later! Hope you enjoy my pictures.

Sunkissed

I created my own little armparty. I do a lot of DIY lately, love making my own bracelets and combining them untill a crazy color pattern can be found on my arm. Today was a good day for some DIY. I went to Amsterdam and bought a couple of new things to make bracelets and earrings (hoops actually). Will show you a.s.a.p.

And today I'm wearing my cheap Primark pants which actually fit amazing combined with a coral top and a perfect white blazer. My shoes are from Hippe Schoenen and they are so comfortable! Do you like them?

Back to the nature

I'm can't mention it enough how pleased I am with this gorgeous weather. It's so sunny and bright, I love to go outside all day (without wearing a coat, yay!) I don't have a lot to tell today though. Currently, when this post will be online, I'm spending my day in Bologna (Italy), my favorite place to be. I'm on a three day trip for work and afterwards I'll going on a two day trip. I'm counting the days till the 16th of may, because I'm going to THAILAND!

Spring Blossom

Why I love spring? Because of the blossom! Everything is in bloom, it's super gorgeous and seeing those beautiful pink tree's is the ultime feeling of happiness. I saw a couple of amazing pink tree's and had this picture in my head that it would be amazing to shoot my outfit pictures there combined with my favorite pants. So here they are, I hope you like them!

Twenty Four

Today it's the 24th of april 2013, the day I'm turning 24. When this post will be online, I'm flying to Nice (France) for work. I took some pictures yesterday and I would like to take this opportunity to look back on this crazy yet amazing year, do you want to look back with me?

FLYING: Bologna

I wrote a couple of posts about Bologna. Simply because it's my all time favorite destination. I try to request a Bologna nightstop one a month. It's the food, the people, the fashion, the drinks. Bologna has it all.

And the most amazing thing about Bologna is the friday and saturday fleamarket. Every week! Amazing clothes, I already bought a lot of things from there, true vintage and really, REALLY cheap! I went to Bologna last saturday, but the weather was hideous. It was raining and there was a thunderstorm as well. So we enjoyed a good red wine and some nice parma ham in a local trattoria.

In between the rainshowers I went to the flea market and bought a blue dress, a cute blouse and a vintage Levi's 501. I also took a couple of pictures, which I hope you like!

You look fitch

Hi all! I absolutely love this spring weather we have in the Netherlands, finally! How are you all doing? I finally decided to shoot some outfit pictures and here's the result! I found this abercrombie & fitch t-shirt in the thriftstore for just 1 euro, perfect condition! I combined it with my sigarette pants from Primark wich I found a couple of weeks ago for 5 euro's during the sale.

And what do you think of my stylight bag? It came with a goodiebag from Stylight, I absolutely love Stylight! If you would like to see my boards, click here.

So PR pressday

Hi dear all, again apologies for my absence the past few days. I've been so busy! I just got promoted to senior cabin attendant and the last couple of days was actually my first trip standing in front of the airplane instead of the back, and I'm really enjoying it! It's a complete different point of view and I'm now in 'charge', or 'responsible' for the cabin is better to say.

Anyway, last week I went to the SO PR pressdays in the world fashion center in Amsterdam. Wow, amazing building! It was my first time there, won't forget it for sure! Everyone was so friendly and I saw so many amazing things! SO PR was by far the biggest PR agency I went to and I was suprised by all the brands!

As you probably all know I only take pictures of things I love, so below you'll see the most beautiful things I saw during the SO PR pressdays. I fell in love with the Goosecraft leather and suede jackets, so pretty! There was one with lots of fringes, totally breathtaking! Besides that SO PR is also the agency for Afterdrk, she showed us some clean clothing in pretty colors. Her white blazer was stunning! It definitely suits her and would look amazing on a lot of people!

Bon Bon Boutique had some cute jewelry which would look fabulous in combination with a bohemian chic style. I also loved the Gaudi shoes, I would describe them as 'hysterical in a positive way' with lots of sequins and embellishments. And do you already know Lola Brood? She had some crazy print tshirts and an awesome leather fringed vest! Totally cool!

The lovely girl from BE Creative make up (soon in stores at Ixi Paris!) showed me which colors would look nice on the eyes and the lips. I felt so pretty afterwards! And I loooved the hearted sweater from Frogbox and the new collection from Bas Kosters, so crazy, so beautiful! Anyway, I hope you like my pictures and it was lovely to meet all the bloggers and the people from SO PR! Thanks again for having me, I had an awesome time!

Summer Spirit

Eindelijk! De lente lijkt toch eindelijk te zijn begonnen. Tijd dus voor optimaal zon-genot. En dit doen we met gekleurde T-shirts met een printje, vrolijke kleuren en voorzichtig al een shortje of een rokje. Ik laat je graag mijn favoriete zomertrends zien die ik samen met de webshop Bulls and Birds heb samengesteld. Kijk je mee?

Thriftshopping

As some of you already know, I'm a huuuuuuge fan of the thriftstore! And today I'm going to show you why! I've already found 75% of my wardrobe while thriftshopping and also own some high street labels which I bought for 1 or 2 euros in the thriftstore. Pretty awesome, don't you think so? Anyway, hope you like my new things!

GanbarooPRpr Pressday

Yesterday I joined my blogfriend Leslie from 'Les is More' to the Ganbaroo PRpr pressdays to check out the autumn and winter collections for 2013. Ganbaroo represents pretty cool brands such as Dennis Diem, HunkyDory, Humanoid, Modström, Paige, Toms and many, many more!

When Les and I arrived at the headquarters of Ganbaroo PR, we were asked to take off our shoes and take some pictures. Ganbaroo represents TOMS shoes and they have organized 'one day without shoes' on the 16th of april 2013. One day without shoes is to bring global awareness to children's health and education. I think it's a fantastic idea and think everyone should join!

After taking our pictures going barefoot, we went inside and discovered the new collections for the autumn and winter 2013. I saw lots of soft colors (HunkyDory), leather (Modström), lace (By Ti Mo) and furry vests (Modström). I fell in love with the collection from Hunkydory, they had an amazing dress completely bedazzeled, it was sooooo heavy, but extremely pretty. I basically loved their entire collection and think every item would fit perfectly in my wardrobe. PAIGE showed us some pretty awesome printed skinny jeans! I also really liked Samsoe and Samsoe, they had some lovely knits! I really liked the dotted Toms shoes and think they would look pretty cute under a pair of skinny jeans. And I absolutely LOVED the new vans collection! So cool, so many awesome prints! Anyway, look at the pictures yourself and decide which one you like the most!

Thanks Hippe Schoenen

As you might know, I went to the Hippe Schoenen summer collection launch party two weeks ago. It was such a fun event! And I truly loved all the new shoes they showed. And in stead of a goodiebag, we all recieved a 50 euro voucher to spend at Hippe Schoenen!

And a week ago I recieved my beauties. I decided to go for wedged sneakers and I had some money left as well and picked the beautiful leopard loafers as well! What do you think, do you like them? Can't wait for spring weather to wear my new leopard loafers :)

My New Bag

Some flights attendants are not always up in the air. I have this awesome colleague with her own very succesfull webshop My New Bag. Next to her flying job she runs her webshop and a beautyblog as well! Her bags are totally awesome, I love every single model and it was really, REALLY difficult to pick one!

I decided to go for the Kelly Bag in beautiful black. This bag is made from real leather and is just a true beauty itself. Very comfortable to wear and she goes with everything! The inside is really nice as well!

Have you already heard of www.mynewbag.nl? She worked together with lots of magazines and is featured on a lot of websites. Make sure to check out her webshop for the coolest and most beautiful bags!

As mentioned before, Lola is my iphone 4 who is capturing my life on a daily base. So this is my overview from this month, I hope you enjoy them :)

A touch of pink

Time for a 'new' outfit of the day! With a little pop of color. Or well, this is actually what I wore during the CreamPR DIY blog event. What do you think? You like it? I combined a vintage blouse with my bright pink zara blazer and my favorite shoes, also from zara

And what are you up to today? It's my only day off, I'm already packing my suitcase, because I will be trained tomorrow for three days and 8 flights! :)

Outfit during the Creampr DIY bloggers event

As I mentioned in my previous post, I entered the stylings contest during the Cream PR DIY bloggers evening. I had to style at least one of the pieces from the Summum Woman collection. Don't you just love the pants from Summum? I absolutely loved it! Unfortunately I didn't win but I'm definitely inspired when it comes to creating new outfits!

Any by the way, I'm back in blogging business! After three days of promotional training somewhere at Schiphol Airport, I passed all the exams and will now be trained for 8 flights next week. Not completely there yet, but almost! And by next week, I can hopefully call myself a 'senior cabin attendant'. :)

Event: CreamPR DIY bloggers event!

I was very thankfull when CreamPR invited me to join their CreamprDIY bloggers event! So on the second of april I headed to Amsterdam for a fun evening with fellow bloggers and awesome brands.

Sunshine in Amsterdam

While attending the launch party my girl Wendy (from FabulousStyleWS) and I decided to take some outfit pictures. It's less awkward when you take outfitpictures of eachother and it's nice to have a photographer with a different perspective every now and than (usually my mum takes my pictures, nothing wrong with those, but it's fun to see how somebody else takes your pictures).

The photos turned out to be a-mazing (at least, in my opinion). I loved it, it was such a beautiful day with bright blue skies and sunshine. But please don't mind my fizzy hair. Later the evening I went to an airline crew party in Amsterdam as well and had a lovely dinner, evening, party and day with my friend. We stayed in a hotel in Amsterdam and had so much fun! Anyway, I hope you like my pictures (Thanks again Wendy!) and my outfit :)

Event: Hippe Schoenen summer collection launch party

Together with Wendy from FabulousStyleWS I went to the summer collection launch party from the webshop Hippe Schoenen. The pretty owner of the webshop showed us the fabulous new shoes and my favorites are the leopard loafers!

It was a fun afternoon with laughs, talks, shoes, good music and other goodies. Hippe Schoenen is a very trendy online webshop providing you the best shoes of the moment. Amazing prices and good quality, can't wait for my pair to arrive! Will show you a.s.a.p!

FLYING: Nurenberg

Out of all the hotels I stay for work, Nuremberg is by far my most favorite. It's located just across the train station and has easy access to the city center. But that's by far not the only thing I love. It's the interior, the feeling, the old building, the bathrooms... The complete package. It's a very old hotel but they completely renovated it. And it's the one place where I don't mind to stay in my room all day. Can you imagine?
