Dutchies

When you look at a fashion spread in Vogue or Elle, you probably pay no attention to the model's background. Well I will help you with that because today I will show you Holland's pride:

Model of the moment: Lara Stone. You can't pick up a magazine without her in it, you can't watch a fashion show without out her walking, she is IT.
Born in 1983, now engaged to comedian David Williams.

Named model of the year by Vogue. Vogue also dedicated a February issue to her, with photo shoot by photographers like Steven Klein.
Right now she is the face of Louis Vuitton and Chanel

Doutzen Kroes

Born in 1985
She now is the face of L'oréal and Victoria's Secret.
She is one of the 5 models on the top-earning list

Bette Franke
Born in 1989.
She did some great shows like Prada and Hermes.
She appeared several times in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire and Elle.

More will come but I need to stop for now!

How Sue C it

A friend of mine just started watching Glee and she quoted this scene that I have to share because Sue Sylvester is just hilarious



Oke so if you don't like Sue, whitch I find hard to understand, you have to watch this:



Now would you please watch Glee! Because once you started I know you will love it as much as i do.

Oh and before I go to sleep, for all of you who can't wait till April:


Hm....what about the voice over saying: 'the wait is almost over'. I think not.

Bday

It's almost my birthday!! Sunday I'll become 20, officially no teenager anymore.

So I wouldn't mind if you gave me one of these?!
You can just sent it to me, no problem!

What did Dakota do with her pants?

Sorry Dakota but you are not rocking this look. I think you are a great talent and most of the time you look pretty fashionable for your age, but his....

What up with tiara? the shoes and the pants? The weird back pack....There are only a few who can rock those shoes (probably only the men in war).

I have no more words for this look and i need to go to college now

Bullys

Never been a big fan of Audio Bullys, but this song I can set on repeat!




So the music on my blog today has an UK theme!

It's like comfortfood

CW will release a new reality show, It's a bad one. In fact can you name one good reality show?

The name of the show? High Society



For me as a CW addict, it is going to be an other show on my long list. I can't resist it. Some people eat a lot of comfort food, I watch series.
Or maybe I can better say fast food: the Hills, the City, Gossip Girl, 90210, Melrose Place, America's next topmodel, Made, TBL

But i'm not all about junk food, I try to eat some culinary food: the Good Wife, Six Feet Under, ER, Damages, Sopranos

And than some of my favorite's I can't place, because they're neither brilliant nor bad: Grey's anatomy, Glee, Desperate Housewives, Skins, Weeds, True Blood, Lost, SATC, Heroes, Will&Grace

Well lets say that I watch a lot....And that I know myself well and this junk food of CW, High Society, will be a part of my long list.

Window Shopping

When i'm bored or when I can't concentrate on my study, sadly most of the time, I go for a little window shopping. Not for real of course, cause when I look outside right now it's raining cats and dogs! No....I just put everything that I want in my basket, on webshops. Don't know which one is more sad: window shopping or window webshopping?

To be sort of realistic to my self I only look at webshops I'm sort of able to afford, like urban outfitters, topshop, asos, new look and H&M not to forget! But perhaps it is better for me to not actually order my full basket, sometimes things just look better on the Internet, so I will just keep the illusion a live!

Here are some of my favs out of several baskets of mine!

Sweater of New Look, combine simple with a skinny jeans and ballerina's or for a summer night with a jeans short, not to tight, and Converse!: http://www.newlook.co.uk/women/tops/hoodies_and_sweats/1927883/192788370/productdetails.aspx?vid=1927898&language=en-GB

I like this H&M short.
I would wear a striped shirt on it.

or with this beautiful Filippa K shirt.

Paul Bellaart

The Dutch photographer Paul Bellaart is one of my favourites. His way of shooting is different than the general fashion shoots. It has classic elements, not to glamorous, just pure. He always works with beautiful models and a great team. My sister works for him, so I know that he is kind and funny man besides talented.

In the Holland fashion seen my sister and I have seen a copy process during the years. Before my sister worked for Bellaart we already loved his style, because by then it was rare. But a few years later more and more fashion shoots seem to have Bellaart's style. Now you can say that it's a coincidence, but I don't. Bellaart his previous assistant started doing her own shoots and for me it looks like she based those shoots on Bellaart, which isn't a bad thing if you give him credits. But I don't think that she does

The princess and the frog

I am a huge movie fan! Since i have this pass which allows me to go to the movies for almost free, I see at least 3 movies a week! Sounds sad but it almost feels like my second home. So, on Valentine's day I went to the movies with some friends, we were lucky to score the last tickets of Disney's new movie the Princess and the Frog. Gosh that movie is a must see! Loved it! It was really funny, but in a way kids probably don't understand. I love that about children movies, those inside jokes only the grownups understand.
It's really funny and romantic, but most of all I wanted to taste that delicious Gumbo the little girl made! So tomorrow I will make my own Gumbo, well it will be really different but i will tell you tomorrow, and i will def. make a picture!

sleep well
