Outfit | Aphrodite

| Reageer

In the bustling streets of Tulum, where the atmosphere is infused with an eclectic mix of styles, I crafted my own unique look. While not necessarily a fan of the typical hippie style, I am drawn to the elegant boho aesthetic, with a hint of Greek goddess mixed in. It feels like the perfect place to experiment with my personal style, so I delved into my suitcase and donned an outfit I affectionately named ‘Aphrodite.’

Despite the presence of seaweed, Tulum remains an enchanting destination to explore. Although seaweed sometimes washes along the coastline, this does not detract from the natural beauty of the beaches and crystal clear waters. Even with this natural challenge, Tulum remains a paradise worth exploring. Soon I will tell you more about my recent 5th trip to Mexico. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! I returned from the trip shown in the photos on the 26th. I traveled to Jordan last minute with an Emirates friend. I was actually going to leave back to Mexico on the same day as I flew to Amman, but due to personal circumstances I unfortunately decided not to go on the trip. When Demi – the Emirates friend in question – and I spent hours on the phone – we decided to fly to Jordan last minute. We both really wanted to go to Petra, which would be my 3rd of the 7 wonders of the world. I made a huge mistake about the climate there and took with me the outfits – such as this dress – that I had originally bought for my return to Mexico. The outfits I brought with me were way too cold and in my own opinion not very neat during Ramadan in the country, so I combined my outfits with shawls or kimonos. The way I wear the dress was only for the photos, because I wore a shawl over my upper body before and after. I wear it like in these pictures during trips to sunny places such as Mexico.

Outfit | Athena

Hi everyone! I have had this super cute dress for almost 3 years – but unfortunately it has often hung in the closet because I didn’t have many occasions to wear it. This beautiful dress from Diva Catwalk in size M often went with me in my suitcase, but was often too warm to wear. This time the climate in Tulum was a lot cooler than the normal seasons I go, so I finally had the chance to wear it now. The dress gives me the same idea of the iconic dress of Margot Robbie (Naomi) in The Wolf of Wallstreet. I liked her style in that film so much for years that I wanted to have some of the same looks. The photos were again, taken at Meteora – who I often work with. I received this dress in 2021/22 as a collaboration with Diva Catwalk. In case you want to buy the same dress, it is now hugely discounted! [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Amor

Hi everyone! This is the first time in 9 years of blogging that I’ve made an outfit post with selfies, haha! I love this outfit and this location (Meteora – the boutique hostel I work with) so much that I took mirror pictures of it because I didn’t really have a good opportunity to take pictures of it outside or for someone else to take them to have it made. Funnily enough, this beautiful dress is from Shein! In combination with accessories from Asos. Both the jewelry and shoes. I love this look and have worn it several times in Mexico – the dress also went with me to Thailand last year. I notice that I want to buy less and less and want to combine more and style differently – and that is why there will be more ‘double’ outfit posts. I sometimes get nice items sponsored + I am grateful to have saved up so much clothing that I want to be much more frugal with it and increasingly prefer to focus on clothing that I can wear for a long time. I like clothes that remain nice for years rather than items that quickly go ‘out of fashion’ – although I always like to follow my own style without necessarily going along with what is a big trend.I think this chic boho look is a look that I like to wear to parties or dinners in Tulum. I think red and gold is a very nice combination. [Lees meer…]

Every time I come to Mexico I evolve. It feels like the place where my soul comes home and I feel the most confident, happy, grateful and powerful version of myself. Tulum is a place with a lot of magic and surprises that always come to mind when I follow my heart and go back. Cheers to the fact that this 4th time here won’t be my last. It is now my second home. Grateful for the fantastic network I have built here and how this place has become a second home for me since 2022. Whatever the circumstances and whatever comes my way – I haven’t let it stop me from going back, because the universe rewards those with a brave soul. In Tulum, I have the ultimate feeling of being myself. In my style, life and self. I also always wear my favorite outfits in Tulum. By the way, this beautiful location is Meteora Tulum – the boutique hostel I have been working with for a long time and was able to stay during my Tulum visit. Perfect location for photos!

Outfit | Floripa

| Reageer

Last week I returned from Florianópolis – Brazil. Actually, immediately after the trip I became very ill. So sick that I checked with the doctor. I haven’t been as sick as I was last week in years. Apparently I had already developed stomach flu in Brazil, which manifested itself in the Netherlands. Fortunately, I have now almost recovered. Just in time for the holidays! I am very much looking forward to taking you along in my stories about Floripa soon. An incredibly safe, clean, fun and adventurous landscape in Brazil. I took the photos of this outfit around the Selina where I stayed for a few days. I also wore this nice outfit a few times in Tulum last year, but I only now took the time to take enough nice photos for an outfit post. [Lees meer…]

Earlier this month, I went to visit one of my best friends in Valencia. At that moment it was the 4th time that I visit Valencia. I have been thinking about moving to Valencia for years, because it is easier as a flight attendant, and I am still in the Netherlands a lot at that point. But let’s see what the future brings! I will soon tell you about this and my 2022 trip to Valencia in a new blog. In those travel diaries, you will also find my tips about the destination.
