I hope everything is going well for you! Nice that you read my new post again. What busy weeks I have at the moment! Despite the fact that I fly very little (at the moment, in addition to the fact that I am on vacation). I am very busy. I volunteered to give a guest lecture on aviation this week for work, and the day after two guest lectures for my Miss World anti-bullying project. Also a lot of shoots on the schedule! Very busy days, but a lot of fun! I also want to share that there are some more Dubai travel posts coming soon, and Miss World posts.

Hi everyone, I just got back from Dubai for a while. After my work layover last year, I really wanted to go back. I have a 2.5 week vacation, and decided to go to Dubai for about 4,5 days. Two friends, including one that I would visit there, canceled last minute. I decided to go anyway, because I could stay with an former colleague in her airbnb, and she was also solo for part of her trip. It has been really fun! And I am happy to travel again after 7 months. I bought this neon dress last year, especially for my Dubai trip that I moved a few times. A large travel diary will soon be online, full of tips. [Lees meer…]

Today I had another blog shoot. This is my favorite outfit at the moment. I’ve had this dress for a few months now, but I still haven’t been able to capture many of the outfits that I wear lately. This beautiful luxury boutique dress is from Lavish Alice, and I bought it a while ago along with a lot of other items. Wearing a black dress is always a good choice.

Special Diary | Miss World Nederland bridal & kimono shoot

| Reageer

Currently, I am in the Miss World Netherlands journey for 9 months already, and I also enjoy creating online diaries about the journey after a certain amount of time within it. Last October I went to Selsela (Weddingwear Selsela) in Haarlem for a fitting appointment for a wedding dress. A cool bridal shoot was planned, but it took place a few weeks ago (while respecting the corona regulations), because we went into lockdown for months back in October. I took a nice photo with my phone of the beautiful dress during the fitting appointment, which we started shooting months later. Side note – I always bring my camera with me to take pics behind the scenes. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone, my last outfit post was a while ago. I have had quite a month. Quarantine, testing, sick family, but also a lot of good news, fortunately. I like to keep that positivity in these times. I’ve had a lot of Miss World shoots recently and some new Miss World behind the scenes posts are coming online on my blog. Also have a number of flights on my schedule! Last week I made my longest flying day ever, seemed a bit like a “tour de Europe”. Eindhoven-Paris-Paphos-Amsterdam-Taxi Eindhoven. Did an Alicante flight this week and another 2 days later. Every flight feels like a moment of happiness. [Lees meer…]

Being a Stewardess | One year of corona in aviation

| 2 Reacties

When I drive past Schiphol in the early morning, or late at night after Miss World, and see the illuminated runways, I still feel those butterflies in my stomach. Schiphol is a magical place that I have admired since my childhood. A gateway to new adventures and special stories, I always wanted to be a part of that. As cliché as it may sound, “the sky is my home”. From an early age I already felt an enormous connection with aviation. And who follows his/her heart often gets where he/she belongs. [Lees meer…]

As you may have seen in a lot of my blog posts, I love wearing suits. I bought a lot of things with discount at the time at a luxury fashion web shop that I have loved for a long time already. Great deal I thought! Lots of clothes that are normally very expensive, for a lot less. I had to pay 105 euros import charges eventually due to Brexit. Painful, but luckily everything fits and looks great, so I accepted it. This great suit has a “corset look” which I think is super cool. I bought all these cool clothes for Miss World workshops, in addition to the dresses that they gave us ourselves. It is also wonderful that we can “go” outside again with this fantastic weather! Time to shoot a lot and move outside again. [Lees meer…]

Special Diary | Finalist journey at Miss World Nederland, Shoots & Airline Documentary part 4

| 2 Reacties

Hi everyone. I create a special diary every x number of weeks / months. During my participation in the Miss World (Netherlands) pageant, I experience a lot of things and events ofcourse. To begin with; the final has been moved from March to the beginning of the summer. So I will still be busy with the Miss World Netherlands journey for another few months. Even though we are in lockdown, I am still occupied with it several days a week. As well, I have some media tasks from my airline, individual shoots, and Miss World NL (meetings). Lizzy and I are working on our stop-bullying project in small steps, which unfortunately is not a large project due to the lockdown. I also get a lot of opportunities from my airline, such as becoming part of a Covid-19 documentary and here and there small fun activities and assignments. [Lees meer…]
