Outfit | Bella

This outfit is an outfit that I have often worn during autumn / the beginning of the year when I used to go out or went out for dinner. I love the combi dress, sneakers/heels, mini bag and watch – you often see this in my blog posts. Now that I have a weekend off my work as a stewardess, I have updated my room a bit – more room for my clothes and the mirror that I had no space for. My room looks more and more like a beauty salon and walk-in closet, haha.  [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! My last outfit post has been a while again, so I am curious what you think of it. This jacket is in my opinion a nice musthave which I scored a while ago at Boohoo! The neon pink gives an extra fun touch to an all black outfit. I added my pink mini bag and pink sunglasses as well. I think the outfit is also nice during autumn.  [Lees meer…]

This is the first outfit post of 2017, so I have a lot to tell about the past few weeks and next few weeks. First of all, I booked a mini & budget trip to my best friend in Lanzarote for next month. Later that week, my friend Mey and I went to a movie I was looking forward to for months. [Lees meer…]

The end of the year is near. I hope 2017 will bring me a whole lot more beautiful things than this year did. My plan for NYE is celebrating it at home with my parents and sister, after that I will go to straight to the cozy café where I come often with my friends. For 2017 I plan a whole lot of new blog posts, reviews, outfits and events. Trust me when I say that there will be a lot of nice new posts on my planning! [Lees meer…]

Autumn is coming so soon and I can already see all leaves and fashion looks changing within an small period of days. I can’t believe that wearing this about two weeks ago was way too hot, and at this moment, quite okay but a bit chilly! This bomber jacket is a great piece of my closet. The silver shiny details on the sleeve part are beautiful and the reason why I got myself this one. Also, the dark blue colour is truly fancy. My sister has applied a beautiful new gel nail color with sparkles on my nails, which looks like the galaxy. What do you think of it? So sweet of her! [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Sakura

The print of this long blouse looks like japanese cherry blossom, which is the reason I called this outfit ‘Sakura’. Japanese cherry blossoms are gorgeous, I’d like to see them in real life one day. One of my biggest dreams since I am young is visiting Japan, which I told in one of my earlier posts. What I spot a lot lately on blouses and bomber jackets is floral details like on this one. I like it, what do you think of the trend? I bought the neon orange heels back in 2014 at Primark when neon coloured fashion items where to be spotted on multiple places. And now I spot related items in some magazines. [Lees meer…]

It changed my life.

Not because of the beaches, the sunsets, or the endless tacos.

Mexico taught me that life can be bigger than the version I was settling for.

It was the first place that showed me freedom doesn’t come from having everything figured out, it comes from trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable adventures, confidence I didn’t know I had, and the courage to build a life that feels like mine.

I arrived as someone looking for a holiday.

I left with a completely different perspective on what was possible.

And honestly?

A part of me never really came back. 🇲🇽✨

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

People see the gowns, the crowns, the photos and the stage.

What they don’t see are the early mornings, the self-doubt, the courage it takes to keep showing up, and the growth that happens long after the spotlight fades.

My twenties taught me that beauty competitions were never really about beauty.

They were about finding my voice.
About learning confidence.
About standing on a stage when I was terrified.
About representing causes I care about.
About inspiring others to embrace who they are.

I had the honor of competing in:

✨ Miss World
✨ Miss Universe
✨ Miss Grand International
✨ Miss Cosmo
✨ Miss International (selected to represent the Netherlands internationally, later cancelled due to COVID)

The titles were never the biggest reward.

The friendships, lessons, resilience, opportunities, and the woman I became along the way will always mean more than any crown ever could.

To the younger version of me who dreamed of standing on those stages: we did it. 💫

Gone (solo) travelling 😜

One day they’ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, you’ll be gone.

What’s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?

Beautiful villa @villa_hunab_ku 🌴

One day I realized:

I wasn’t afraid of being and travelling alone.

I was afraid of losing my life while waiting for someone else.

So I booked the flight. ✈️

What’s something you’ve been waiting for?

Based on facts 🌴✈️ Can you relate?

"What do you like to do for fun?"

Leave the country.

New places, new people, new stories.
Every single time.

At what point does it stop being a hobby and become a personality trait? 😂

Mini cut from last weekend in Marbella

Embracing Authenticity | Defending Truth on my Miss World (Netherlands) journey in 2021, my core values and mission

Dutch version below – Hello everyone, I would like to share my truth, vision, and story with all of you, including the beliefs I stand for.
