This weekend is going to be warm and summery in Amsterdam. There are a lot of events going on: Taste (a foodie festival), <a href="http://amsterdamopenair.nl/">Amsterdam Open Air</a> (techno etc) and Shoeless for a hippy feeling. The boats will get out on the canals and the wine bottles will cork open easily. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For all fellow Dutchies, have fun this weekend. For anyone in good or even murky weather, have an excellent time as well <span class="st">ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ</span></div>

<li><b>Too old for fashionblogging?</b> Oh, there are so many good and quirky ages prancing around blogs these days. But do you really want to be seen as 'older' blogger? </li>
<li><b>No more a slave to the gym</b>: I still have a good physique with feminine hips and a thin waist but my 3 times hardcore gymwork has been diminished to a softer set of movement. My body looks softer too. Do I need my rockhard abs to get into that bodycon dress?</li>
<li><b>I'm still an idiot!</b> I guess my idiotic nature gotten me some blogviews in the first place. So many utterly gorgeous people on blogs that only get 2 comments, and my flawed self gotten 20 sometimes.</li>
<li><b>I'm over most brands</b>. I still feel a thing for Balenciaga but I'm not entirely about their bag-aesthetics yet: their studs need to become as good as they were in 2011! </li>
<li><b>I still depend on me!</b> It's an older Destiny's Child song (Independent Woman), Beyonce's former girlsquad. I don't have a photographer and my own work is hilarious...</li>
<li><b>I'm hair-insecure</b>. Lots happened, I just wish my hair was gawwwjus and blogperfect.</li>
<li><b>I'm still a narcissistic twat that likes to be seen.</b> And that is a plus why I should go on blogging and doing the absurdly bad photography and poses ;-).</li>

I still had this promise of posting something, so there you go. This blog is for expressing my travel-lust so I think it's a part of liking to share as well.<br />
<br />
And for the other small-town girls around, it is sometimes lonely when nobody recognizes your wonderful clothes. Mayby you guys will :). In my case I wore this <a href="http://www.theoutnet.com/en-US/product/Equipment/Oliver-printed-silk-mini-dress/554817"><b>Equipment dress</b></a>, My <a href="http://www.bernardboutique.com/shopping/women/chloe-marcie-mini-bag-item-10288367.aspx"><b>Chloe mini Marcie</b></a>, <a href="http://www.greek-sandals.com/Summer-2015-Leather-Sandals/Gladiator-Sandals/High-Gladiator-Gold-25cm-Leather-Zipper/p-175-102-1138/"><b>Greek-Sandals</b></a> gladiators and my <a href="http://www.mytheresa.com/en-nl/cat-eye-sunglasses-372489.html"><b>Dolce & Gabanna sunglasses</b></a>.<br />
<br />
I went to the South of France after two years and I stuck to the coast this time. This whimsical little grapevine vineyard has been the producer of a more elite wine being served at haute classe <b>L'Orangerie</b> at the <b>St. Tropez</b> coast:<b><i> <a href="https://fr-fr.facebook.com/chateaudepampelonne">Chateau de Pamplonne</a></i></b>. <br />

<b>Ramatuelle</b>, the St. Tropez beach, was more casual than I expected. I'm slightly spoiled, though. I went to a couple of beach-etablissements, like the infamous <b>Club 55</b>: can you believe they charge you similar price on a seat at the front of the beach than Holland??? But Holland is weirdly expensive on it's space: try parking in Amsterdam under €5 for under an hour. I'll write more on that soon enough :)Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com28tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-36670734838724510692015-05-25T18:09:00.000+02:002016-02-17T18:15:59.615+01:00Long Time...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>I just want to say I miss blogging...over here.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always have been a rebel type so the blog has been a tool to express myself. When I started blogging over here, I found that most girls on fashionblogs were as perfect as models, or close to it. By showing myself in my imperfect state I wanted to set myself between them. Honestly, I never expected people to find me, and at a certain moment to be slightly popular as well!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How much I loved to be in this online community of fashionbloggers for a while...I also started to get more insecure. I was not the youngest one, nor the best in makeup, photoshop (what if..) or the thinnest one. At a certain point, I noticed that my blogposts started to get a complaining, negative tone. What the Flogger, right? That was not how I started out and neither how I wanted to have my blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm getting to terms with my insecurities again. People commented mostly positive reactions in the first place so I guess some of you like(d) me. In a way I hoped my online presence helped other people coming forward expressing and showing themselves, even if they do not fit the mold of #flawless and #perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd still like to fashionblog again, with pictures. I always thought it was difficult to do, autocamera and all, but I loved the creativity and the madness of it. Also, the result of portraying different emotions that are not always the most pretty, but sometimes funny or intense. Like life can be: not always pretty or flawless, but a intense feeling of emotions or the occasional lull of being bored.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>I hope to 'see' you guys some more in the future ♥</b></div>

I think someone asked Lady Gaga for a mint instead, but with the commotion around <i>50 Shades of Grey </i>someone had to put on the gloves and catch all the hotness on the red carpet. I'm quite sure they would not have been cookies in the Celebrity world of raw food, but how I love Lady Gaga for messing with a perfect Alaïa.Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-49137675005678858282015-02-14T20:08:00.000+01:002016-02-17T18:15:59.626+01:00Doll Dressing<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've gotten busy thinking about my resolutions of 2015. I ended 2014 in reaching a couple of my goals and not feeling happier about it. So for this year I'm just gonna put in *better human connection*. Plus, I'm gonna add having one of those whimsical Valentino dresses and look good in them...It would not hurt asking for it, right?Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-30029086075011874212015-01-09T14:18:00.000+01:002016-02-17T18:15:59.610+01:00on putting on a Sunny Face<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A while ago I posted<a href="http://instagram.com/p/vVmmn5RNBB/?modal=true"><b> this picture</b></a> with a reference to bullying. Something like "<i>People who have been bullied never forget</i>" or the likes of that. In a way, most people have had a certain degree of bullying in their life. And honestly, most of us have been 'teasing' someone too. I'm guilty of both.<br />
<br />
When I was on this blog, I noticed the references to me "perhaps not being born a woman". As said in my last post: I'm a Dutch 'farmer's' girl, but I'm certainly been born female. You should meet me and my moody behaviour every month! Unfortunately, my hands seem to be a reference to that thought: I'm just not having small and dainty hands, that's all.<br />
<br />
On the picture above I seem to be hiding behind a <i>cuuuuute</i> Monki bag. So all the pseudo-psychologist might refer to me "<i>hiding my insecurities behind shopping</i>" etc etc. <b>For me it is putting on a sunny face</b>. We are often told that "honestly is the best policiy", but believe me, I can be way too honest for your likes. <b>I like my fashion, makeup, hair and outfits to say something about me: how I feel that day. </b>Sometimes I'm a bit of a character, on other days I feel more secure about going neutral. <br />
<br />
<b>I think there is a lot of pressure on having a beautiful face these days: instagram-wise</b>. And if we deny putting on regular #selfies, we are supposed to be shy. If we put on too many, we are either too arrogant or perhaps too insecure (asking for constant likes). As for the older girls, if we decide to get old gracefully, we are not in the game anymore. But if we <i>ameliorate</i> our features, we will get the Renee Zellweger scrutiny.<br />
<br />
In all ways, we are all beautiful if we behave beautifully. But then, not really. The fact that I mingle well with beautiful people is not that I am one myself but that I share similar personality with them: slightly bitchy but still pretending to be an angel. There should be an instagram-filter for that as well, the Dorian Gray filter.<br />
<br />
Have a happy 2015 with either a beautiful inside or outside, or just have good money on you ;)Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-61702065616866145702014-12-24T20:04:00.002+01:002016-02-17T18:15:59.647+01:00Holiday Wishes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i>Ohhh</i> Chrismas...and all those wishlist you have to take into account. Perhaps the multitude of Pinterest boards made it both easier and more difficult at the same time. And how about your own wishlists??? Don't you wish you could combine everyone's gift into one really fancy one, that bag or those shoes you've been pining for? Or do you believe in that personal gesture of every loved one?Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-20052512849989324312014-12-03T10:34:00.000+01:002016-02-17T18:15:59.600+01:00Good Hairdresser gone Bad<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The last couple of weeks have been insecurity galore for me. I went fringe/bangs and it gotten me a bit self-concious again. My hairdresser gave me some horribly chunky highlights and the flow of my cut was not brilliant either.<br />
<br />
I'm neither self-secure nor insecure, normally. I'm in the middle of knowing what my good features are, and my flaws. I know that I like a feminine look because I'm not the most dainty around: blame my Dutch Polder heritage and Frisian roots for it, we are sturdy women! But I'm not feeling the tomboy vibe out there, and as I said to my hairdresser:<i><b> I still like to attract men for it</b></i>.<br />
<br />
My hairdresser probably gotten slightly pissed on me for that remark, and also for not 1. going shorter 2. not wanting to become brunette. Or, some women can be pissed when you want to look as pretty as them, or they might be afraid you might upstage them. And some hairdressers are such control freaks that they might give you lousy hair when you have your own say about it. So she gave me bad hair for about $160.<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">I normally don't rant about a company but I feel awful about this, especially as she gave me gorgeous highlights in Feb '14</span></td></tr>

That explains that I was with really long virgin hair for so many years: I didn't want anyone to butcher it up. <span style="font-size: x-small;">(Ps: this doesn't just count for women hairdressers only: some of the men doing hair might do similarly) </span><br />
<br />
These days I'm partly dyed/highlighted because I wanted to look prettier after my relationship ended. For me it was letting go of my older self. I really regret that my hairdresser refused to see that part while she was doing my hair. <br />
<br />
Shortly, it was not the bad hair that spurred me into insecurity, it was the fact that someone young & beautiful herself with a succesful life found it necessary to mess up my hair.Mlle Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03314937776350941971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684042469750286887.post-11779620153277821802014-12-03T06:43:00.001+01:002016-02-17T18:15:59.588+01:00Lovin' this Winter<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm wearing something that I call '<i>Dutch woman</i>'-mode in my Autumn '14 normality: embracing everything skirt...short, midi, maxi, or <i>this</i> one that reminds me of Helmut Lang. I guess this is my version of <i>normcore</i> because the skirt is flexible and the leather jacket is cosy/trendy/warm.<br />
And taupes are the perfect basics for me when I feel like <i>all black</i> is too stark.</div>

There's something about ruffles. Ruffles spell out a certain class and complexity that make it perfect for the Holiday Season. Something far beyond the <i>normcore</i> that has been around lately; or actually making a big effort for the ones you love or want to impress...

<b><u>Stylechat</u></b>:<br />
<br />
I'm delightfully ignoring all normcore activities and have gone quite Mod about fashion: hair, clothing & attitude.<br />
<br />
My favorite seasonal piece must be my grey & splitted Topshop skirt: they have this sportswear fabric but in a cool shape. The boots are not Marant but Lola Cruz, I cheated on it. Actually I'm not sorry because I really like Lola Cruz's designs! Everything else is either white, grey or black. Although I'm tending to wear more colour again so you might see me with something canary bright soon!<br />

<b>Bodytalk:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently I've discussed the idea of selfies with some friends. Personally I tried to make faceselfies, but I prefer bodyselfies. This is where the feminists step in for the fact I might be "sexualizing my body by showing it bikini-clad online" but who are they to judge? Sometimes, a pouty/boobtastic faceselfie has more erotic value than the one I showed above. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This autocam-selfie is to celebrate the strenght & femininity of my body. It also shows pride in the effort of working-out. But most of all, it embraces the idea of portraying a body that falls out of the boundaries of either being either young, flawlessly pretty or superskinny. This is a body that has had some mileage but is able to climb rocks, swim unapologetically in a rough ocean, and can eat a good amount of healthy food. Because a body that takes care of its owner does deserve food and not starvation! So who can tell us our body is not perfect like the skinny models when we might be better off with our healthier ones in the long run? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this sense, perfection is what <b>you</b> decides it is, not anyone's else perfection.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I've gotten a bit tired about last week's entertainment news. I think everyone has analysed Renee Zellweger's face and had an opinion about cosmetic 'enhancement'& ageing.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm not going to say that much about it, but that the guys don't get this amount of scrutiny. What about Brad Pitt, or Johhny Depp? Or David Beckham might look <i>way</i> too wrinkled these days?<br /><br>
</div>
