new-a-porter.

New season, new items. Give your look a little attitude by getting your hands on several musthaves for this upcoming fall/winter. Sun or no sun, just wear it, layer it and change it by day. Net-A-Porter has some amazing new items, and they're now online! Peek my favs:















First up, simplicity by Calvin Klein, eventhough this brand has never been away, it's back on track this upcoming season.. ultrastrong, so cop something before it's gone! Simple white or nude dressed are a must anyways, turtleneckones can be bought at American Apparel aswell, cheapcheap. Haha. Okay, next! Marchesa dress, very 90ies, hot. Or a weird cut dress by Vera Wang or a tie around tie tie tie dress by Moschino, which I love. And always simple but great accessories, bags by Mulberry and shoes by Chloe!

Okay, and now more serious things, Balmain, one of my favs for this upcoming season, fall/winter 2008-2009, great dress. Then Fendi, Proenza Schouler, and some accessories bij Alexander McQueen, I love this bag, but I'm still wishing for the egg.. And one by Vivienne, Queen!

Anyway, so far so good, and since my macbook almost died, I'm only using email, myspace and facebook thourgh my mobile for a short while now.

miss net-a-porter.

Done with SALE! Tthink about all the new items you can easily cop from behind you computer. Or even the pre-shopping thing, by peeking whatever you like online before going to the shops to try them on in real-life, etc. Also keep a close eye on the prices, some store can be big bitches by making them higher.

Okay, what up first.. Luella! Simple cool tee, quite affordable, and nice to have. Batman, tanannanana, Batman! Haha. Okay, next.. a short but nicely made 3.1. Phillip Lim skirt. You can also make a Prada-like belt thing out of this one, haha. Then a scarvedress by McQueen. I love love love this one, it's on my list! McQueen is making a lot more affordable items by their sister label McQ. Same story with this one, a wrapped one, silk, black, always good. Great if you're having some nice breasts. :)

Next is a Fendi dress, a laptop bag by Marc Jacobs, a gorgeous dress by Burberry Prorsum and some killerheels by Fendi. I'm guessing black is always nice and great to start this upcoming season with. Buy the saver, but eyecathing items. Then you can save and spice your new wardrobe up with some colour, etc.

Have fun shopping and peeking online: net-a-porter.com

another day day.

Yesterday I had a very nice and relaxed day. After a ruff start in the morning, I met Dennis to go meet some poeple from Levi's who asked me to be in a small magazine/book, reason for this is the relaunch of the classical Levi's 501. They stopped making the orginal one and came up with a new one. I have to say, I do prefer the old and original one, but you never know what a succes it may be.

Anyway, afterwards I went to see Joost and his new studio, Joost Vandebrug, talented and dutch photographer, mark the name, has a new studio! And I can't wait to be shooting with him in it! The quick visit got interupted as my Mom picked me up since we planned on going to Sex and The City: The Movie.

I've seen the movie already, but hellooo, it's a movie you can't just watch once. Afterwards a bite and drink and some quality time with Dennis. I felt a little weird as a lot went through my mind, which happens more often after seeing a movie which brings up lots of memories. But it was nice and I'm glad I wasn't somewhere else.

Today I met Soner again, been a while, and it was fun. Now I'm home, watching Project Catwalk, since I'm loving that small litle guy, who says 'fierce' way too often, haha. And thats all. Oh, and just for the feeling, Jennifer Hudson with All dressed in Love. She's a superstar and I truly love her. Such a great voice and strong lady, getting more fashionable by day. x

chanel gets fierce.

I didnt even know so, but I just found out that Chanel Iman is in the Vogue Beauty, this months Issue! And looking at the photos, wondering who did the hair and the styling, etc.. I just have to mention she and the others did a fucking fierce job. Love it! Buy it! x

still in love with cole.

Cole Mohr, more ads for upcoming season where he's doing Marc Jacobs.
I still love him and the fact he's wearing womens items, entire looks, fucking fierce! Now I just hope people actually get inspired and boys may try to put on a dress or buy a womens bag for themself.. Marc seems to be back on track, hope he puts on his glasses again.

upside down feeling.

At times you're simply watching a certain movie or listening to a certain song, when all of a sudden tears jump in your eyes, roll over your face and you feel something you havn't felt in a long time. A feeling, a thought, something reminds you of something else and that something, feels weird.

I'm having a lot of memories, better said, flashbacks, from olddays and feeling old feelings. After just watching a tv-serie I find myself sitting on the floor in my room.. thinking of a talk I had with my Dad a few days ago and thinking back at a few years, things I havn't thought of in months, years.

Sometimes I wonder if I let people truly see the real me. As most of the people I know and meet will always build a certain image around me or see me as someone I am, but who is just a part of the person I truly am in total. I believe there are people who do know me, who can see through me. Some I havn't seen in a while, and I think to find a great balance for this upcoming half year, six months left, of 2008, I need to catch up with them and put some olddays in my newdays.

So thats it for now, a little drama talk, which I havn't posted in a long time, ha, hopefully I'm not turning this image I'm having into a crybaby, haha. Oh well, for now just a little Barry White and some memories on my mind. The world, the real world, seems so big all of a sudden, from my floor, in my room, somewhere in Amsterdam Still much to dream about and chase.


This reminds me of a few lines:

Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
- Dr Seuss


Faith is the Pierless Bridge
Supporting what se see
Unto the cene that we do not
Too slender for the eye

It bears the soul as bold
As it were rocked in steel
With arms of steel at either side
It joins behind the veil

To what, could we presume
The bridge would cease to be
To our far, vacillating feet
A first necessity.

- Emily Dickinson


And now I'm off to bed.
