Outfit | Rome

22/07/2025 | Reageer

Hi everyone. This outfit post is extra special to me, because it was taken at the fourth world wonder I’ve checked off my list: the Colosseum in Rome. A place that radiates power, history, and beauty. I feel incredibly grateful to have visited four world wonders in just three years – something only a small part of the world’s population ever experiences. And that makes me pause and truly appreciate it.

This trip wasn’t planned at all. It happened thanks to a lovely surprise: my dear friend Aline from Brazil happened to be in Italy and asked if I could come visit. It fell right into my part-time schedule, and with my crew tickets I was able to fly over to see her. We spent some beautiful days together, and I’ll be sharing a separate travel diary from that soon.

Now let’s talk about this dress. It’s from Diva Catwalk, a brand I’ve collaborated with before and absolutely love. Their pieces are feminine, flattering, and timeless – and this black dress is no exception. I receive compliments every time I wear it, and honestly? I don’t think I’ll ever let it go. It’s one of those versatile classics that you can style in endless ways, and it’s always elegant and flattering.

Lately my body has naturally changed a bit, and I’ve started to prefer looser fits. But this dress? This one stays. Always.

Hi allemaal. Deze outfit post is voor mij extra bijzonder, omdat hij is gemaakt bij het vierde wereldwonder dat ik inmiddels heb mogen afvinken: het Colosseum in Rome. Een plek die niet alleen tot de verbeelding spreekt, maar ook symbool staat voor kracht, geschiedenis en schoonheid. Het voelt als een enorme zegen om in slechts drie jaar tijd al vier wereldwonderen te hebben bezocht – iets wat maar voor een klein deel van de wereldbevolking is weggelegd. Dat besef maakt me intens dankbaar.

Deze reis was trouwens niet gepland, maar ontstond spontaan door iets bijzonders: mijn lieve vriendin Aline uit Brazilië was toevallig in Italië en vroeg of ik langs kon komen. Toevallig viel het precies in mijn deeltijdrooster, en dankzij mijn crew tickets kon ik haar gemakkelijk opzoeken. We brachten samen een paar heerlijke dagen door in Italië – binnenkort deel ik daar een aparte travel diary van.

De jurk die ik hier draag wil ik ook nog even in het zonnetje zetten. Hij is van Diva Catwalk, een merk waar ik vaker mee heb samengewerkt en dat bekendstaat om hun vrouwelijke, tijdloze designs. Deze zwarte jurk is zonder twijfel een van mijn favoriete items uit mijn kast. Ik krijg er telkens complimenten over, en eerlijk gezegd: ik denk niet dat ik hem ooit nog wegdoe. Het is zo’n klassieker die je op ontelbaar veel manieren kunt combineren – en daarbij ook nog eens prachtig afkleedt.

Ik merk dat mijn lichaam de laatste tijd op een natuurlijke manier veranderd is, wat me heeft doen inzien dat ik me prettiger voel in iets lossere silhouetten. Maar deze jurk? Die blijft. Altijd.

Wait for the end… 🥹🌎

Imagine all the beautiful souls you would have never met if you had waited for someone to travel with you.

The strangers who became friends. The unexpected connections. The people who made a foreign country feel like home. 🤍

Looking back, the most beautiful part of traveling solo was never just the places I visited.

It was the people I met along the way.

Some of them are still part of my life years later.

And to think I could have missed all of that simply because I was afraid to go alone.

Send this to someone you met while traveling. ✈️❤️
