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…]

Hi everyone! Here is my 2nd outfit from the collaboration with Jurkjes.com. No matter how cold it is, I love dresses. You won’t see me in pants very often either. Except for special trousers or a suit. How I am looking forward to finally have a glass of wine or something at a café one day. I’m afraid it could take months, unfortunately, but I look forward to the day when it can hopefully be done again. Fortunately, I am enjoying myself! By the way, I recently shopped online a lot, so it’s great to receive all those packages again. Also called up for a flight this week, so in a little over 2 weeks I flew 4 times. Quite a lot for this time! Tomorrow a dress shoot with my best friend, this weekend busy with Miss World, next week a video recording with my airline Transavia.. Enough to do! I wish you a lot of strength in these times. It will be over one day … I hope. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! Horrible.. that lockdown. It takes us a long time to get back to normal life .. The good news is that I have plenty to do with good friends, have had 3 flights in the past 2 weeks, and have something to keep me busy every day. I hope you are all doing well! Keep yourself tough! Do not end up in social isolation. Stay in touch with family, friends and loved ones and see what is still possible despite the lockdown. I got this nice dress and belt from Jurkjes.com, a super stylish winter combination. [Lees meer…]

Special diary | Beauty and Airline Shoot, Miss World Nederland finalist trip & TV interview

| 2 Reacties

Hi everyone! Because of this busy and special week, I decided to turn this into an entire blog post. To start this post, I can finally announce that I am a finalist at Miss World Netherlands, so it has been very busy recently. I am lucky that the entire Miss World Netherlands journey has the perfect timing with our low amount of flights in recent months. Every disadvantage has its advantage, and I want to take opportunities where they are – and that was a good move. [Lees meer…]
