EN ÉTÉ

As if time was nothing, the last few months flew by. I spend a couple weeks in lovely Italy for some resting, wandering around in Rome, visiting adorable seatowns and eating yummy food. Finished my first year design at AMFI in july and in one week I will start with a new adventure, going to the second year fashion and branding. A switch, but such a good decision and a relieve. Can't wait to start with something new and refreshing. I missed it here, so expect some more of these coming up in the next few weeks.

For now, goodbye.

NEON

Photography - Alexander Binder

Found this photographer in an amazing photography magazine, called GUP (Guide to Unique Photography) and instantly fell in love with his work. I adore the mysterious, scary and mythical atmosphere in his pictures and how he works with the different neon colours mixed with the blurry and vague images. I definitely recommend checking out all his work at his website www.alexanderbinder.de.

See you all soon with other news, fashion and more, hectic times at the moment!

CREATIVE BUBBLE

Last weekend I spend walking around in Antwerp with one of my best friends. Unfortunately I didn't take a lot of pictures but I had a lot of fun, shopping (Urban Outfitters on the pictures!), drinking coffee, eating amazing chocolate and singing at a karaoke bar. Got this wonderful skirt at Forever 21, it was love at first sight. Lately I start to collect more and more items from Forever 21, they have some really cool clothes for low prices. The week off was actually lovely, had some time to meet up with friends and did a lot of driving, because I finally passed for my driver's license! (ps. welcome in my room! this is where all my crazy ideas come into existance and where I create everything, also the dress on the fitting doll!)

TEXTURES&THINGS

The details in different types of fabrics are really inspiring and interesting. It is amazing to see how textures look so close-up and how many difference there is in fabrics.

CREATURE OF THE NIGHT

'Nekromantik' by Polish fashion designer Katarzyna Konieczka
Inspired by Frankenstein and his creations.

Found these images a while ago during research for school but they keep capturing my interest. They kind of remind me of horror and slaughter movies, but because the pictures and models are so delicate, there is a weird contrast. I adore the creepy, yet fairytale-like feeling that these pictures bring.

OCEAN

Gorgeous underwater photography. I love how the fabrics move under water, it's breathtaking.
Found these on one of my long searches on the internet for my inspiration book for school on the trendhunter website.

ORIENTAL

A 3 week travel across Thailand.

Not only are the people welcoming and really nice, the food is delicious and there is so much to see and to experience, Thailand is most of all a photographers paradise.



It was absolutely one of the most amazing and impressive experiences of my life and the things I have seen and done are just too much to sum up. Some highlights for me were the visit to the Elephant Hospital, a hiking tour in the jungle, a thrilling ride on the back of an elephant in the rainforest, off-road quad riding in the mountains and taste the amazing food in the many streets of all the places we visit.

Other stories to tell in the past three months:

- I got in the school I applied for! Two weeks from now I start at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, Fashion & Design.

- I turned 19 two weeks ago and I celebrated it with my family and friends in Thailand. The staff of the hotel we stayed in was super nice and got me cake and decorations.

- I went to Pinkpop with my friend Mirthe and it was a real last-minute decision, but we had so much fun and the music was awesome.





see you all soon.

ALIVE

Yes, I am still alive, the last month was crazy and a lot of work for admissions for new art schools, but at the moment there is more time to sit back and relax and do fun stuff.

These two pictures I took a couple of weeks ago. I made both the dress and the skirt in the upper picture and styled it with some other items. Huge thanks to Julie for modelling.

Hope to see you soon and new followers, thank you!

FUR AND GOLD

Winter is here and Christmas is only one day away. I walk around all day with my fur headband and yesterday I painted my nails gold with glitters. I love these lazy days were you just stay in, drink hot chocolate, listen to christmas music and watch the snow outside. The last two I took yesterday in the forest, it's the perfect weather for photgraphs.

Merry Christmas lovelies! Hope you have a lovely christmas eve and two cosy christmas days with the ones you love.
