Flowers. For everyone.



There is just something about flowers, whether it’s roses, lilies, tulips or any other beautiful creature of nature. They come in like a zillion different colours, which makes it even harder to choose your favourite. And of course getting them from your boyfriend or best friend are the best way of receiving them. But every once and a while you have to treat yourself to some beauty all by yourself.

Columbia Road Flower Market
Every Sunday from 8am to 2pm

All things pretty are pink


Think cotton candy, rainbows and unicorns. This for the girly girls who know in their hearts that they will always have a love-relationship with the colour pink.

Although pink was never out of style, it is now back! And stronger then ever. Or it will be at least, next season. After one of my lectures on trends, I was advised to take a look at trend forecaster Li Edelkoort. She is a Dutch woman – how could she be anything else – who is like a guru when it comes to forecasting trends. And it just seems to be that she predicts a very bright future for my beloved pink colour. Yes, I dyed my hair pink and I would do it again anytime.

This new pink is not the girly Barbie pink though. It is a strong pink that stands for provocation and in your face-ness. Who could not looooove that! It is all about revolutionizing and being a rebel in pink.

Here are some things on my pink wish list:

Marc Jacobs

Notebook

This in London please :)

Find a pink sofa

Stella McCartney

La vie en rose

New talent on the rise



Yesterday I went to take a sneek peek at the pop-up store named College Shop. For those who are now thinking: why do I care? Well, you will soon find out.

The College Shop is a temporary store where you can find the work of recently graduated students from the London College of Fashion. You can find anything going from jewellery to coats. The prices are all fixed according to the material that has been used to fabricate these wonderful designs.

There were a lot of cool people attending the launch – maybe also because of the free drinks. It is definitely worth going there if you’re looking for a piece of a new, upcoming and trendy designer. ‘Cuz these peeps are the future, people! And if you go now, you can maybe call yourself the owner of a real collector’s item in a couple of years.








College Shop
Klingy Court (Off Carnaby Street), London W1B 5PW
Until 1 november, open every day

Our love for Karl


How lucky am I, living in London! Very lucky if you count in the free expo about ‘The little black jacket’ from Chanel I visited yesterday.

The exhibition was set in the Saatchi Gallery, which is code for fanciness. The whole neighbourhood breathes out a certain amount of richness, so Karl probably felt right at home. More than 100 muzes of the man himself were captured on film wearing the iconic Chanel black jacket in all kinds of ways. All pictures are in black and white, which I found pretty interesting. There are some gorgeous people who modelled for Karl and now let’s be honest, who wouldn’t?

Sadly, I forgot my camera and had to do with some Instagrams. Of course, you can also come check the thing out yourself and get a free poster! Yes, you read that right. We had the opportunity to choose a poster of one of the beautiful pictures. And I have to say: not much comes free in London but when it does, it’s definitely worth paying a visit – omg I sound poor.
Took this baby home
I will leave you with this and my Instagrams – loved by some and hated by others.
Laters!
