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…]

This has been my favorite winter outfit during the past few months, so I created a super tiny outfit post. The dress is nice and loose, and with dark tights (tights that are more beautiful than in this photo though, haha), I think it’s a nice all black outfit. I think I can’t even count how many times I’ve been wearing this haha. I bought this dress in 3 colors already, and bought it at Jurkjes.com. I wear the same model in outfit Blue and Elise.

This beautiful suit was on my wishlist for months. I decided to style the suit almost the same as my outfit post: Suit. I also spot it often on the Instagram page of Given. The pieces of this suit are truly a few of the most amazing items I have in my collection. The color is gorgeous and one of my favorites. I recieved the snake necklace as a gift from my sister for Christmas. I think this suit is fantastic if I want to go out in style/representative, or just want to dress up business like. [Lees meer…]

I wear this outfit really much lately. I can wear it in a variety of ways. The gorgeous belt completes this outfit for me, but a belt makes the the dress appear shorter than it is. I like wearing it for having a drink with friends, party, clubbing, lunch or blogger event. Without the belt and with a pair of elegant high heels, I would wear it for a (fancy) dinner. Anyways, this is one of my favorite outfits during this autumn/winter. I always wear lots of colors as you may have noticed, but an all black outfit like this is never wrong – love it! [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! It has been a while since I last posted an outfit.
The weather is great this weekend in the Netherlands, spring is finally here!
A week after the Amsterdam fashion week, I bought this bag of Given in sale. The bag itself includes a card holder and mini wallet that comes with it as a bonus. I like it very much and I can wear it as a clutch as well. This is an outfit I have loved wearing last year and still like wearing today, but now together with the bag. Almost all of this is from Primark. [Lees meer…]

Report | Given Fashion at the Amsterdam Fashion Week

30/01/2017 | Reageer

Previous saturday, I went to the Amsterdam Fashion Week for the first time. I was invited by Given to watch their AW17 collection fashionshow with a guest. I really like the clothing of Given! In my opinion they always have beautiful collections. When I was invited to visit the showroom back in September to Meet Miss Netherlands and to recieve a dress, because I won a like & share competition, I already saw a lot of the beautiful clothing besides of already checking them out often on Instagram.

I’m adoring the over-the-knee boot trend! A total musthave for the colder days coming up.
I think knee boots like the ones in this post are boots which will be a important piece in each closet for a way longer period. I decided to combine it with my new Given dress, which I won during a Miss Netherlands related Like & Share competition a month ago. Given is an Amsterdam based fashion brand which has been one of the partners of Miss Netherlands. [Lees meer…]

UNESCO world heritage surrounded by Volcanoes 🌋🇬🇹 Antigua - Guatemala

Solo in Guatemala 🇬🇹✨
I started my journey in the beautiful colonial city of Antigua, and it instantly stole my heart.

After a one-hour flight from Cancún and a short drive from Guatemala City, I arrived in a place full of colorful streets, historic architecture, lush gardens and the cutest coffee spots.

It felt surprisingly social for solo travellers, with boutique hotels and hostels everywhere. I felt safe walking around on my own, even early in the mornings and evenings, and everything is close enough to explore on foot.

I spent about three days here, spread out over my trip. Two nights at the beginning and one night at the end. The perfect place to slow down, recharge, and meet people along the way.

Would you add Antigua to your solo travel list? 🤍 #guatemala #antigua #laantigua #solotravel

I almost gave up during the first hour of this volcano hike, but what I saw at the top changed everything 🌋 90 second vlog! ⏰

One of the hardest yet most rewarding things I’ve ever done while traveling.
A few weeks ago, I hiked a volcano, and it pushed me far outside my comfort zone, physically and mentally.

We started the day slow, with breakfast in beautiful Antigua, before being transported to the headquarters to gear up and mentally prepare. The first hour was brutal: steep, cold, and way less oxygen. I was close to quitting. But with lots of breaks, support from the group, and a porter for my backpack, it slowly got better.

This hike is no joke. Bring plenty of water, snacks, layers, walking sticks, and altitude pills; the climate and altitude differences really test you. At basecamp there was no water or electricity, so you truly go back to basics. Cold nights, thin air, and warm cacao shared with people from all around the world after a 4–5 hour climb.

I was completely exhausted, so the only extra hike I did was a short 20-minute climb to the viewpoint, and it was more than worth it. Seeing the volcano erupt every 10 minutes was unreal. One of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life. Even at night, waking up in our shared cabin, we could see it glowing in the dark.

The next morning, after coffee and breakfast, we started the descent. About 2.5 hours down - fast, music in my ears, and honestly… pure fun.

This hike reminded me that the hardest paths often lead to the most unforgettable moments.

Would you try this? 🌋✨
Let me know in the comments.

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

Most incredible moment of 2025, and actually one of the most incredible of my life. Hiking the Acatenago volcano in Guatemala was one of the most challenging things I have ever done in my life, but the reward of pushing my own limits felt unreal. This climb and activity was on top of my bucketlist and for sure one of the most rewarding things of the year! 🌋

80 second solo travel vlog of Lake Atitlan in Guatemala - I had an incredible 3 night stay at @freecerveza - the best place to stay if you search for a social place around Lake Atitlan. 🇬🇹

Waking up to volcanoes on the horizon, vibrant villages by the water, and mist slowly rising from the lake… was pure magic 🌋

Every boat ride felt like a dream, every sunset a reminder to slow down. Guatemala surprised me, but Atitlán left a mark on my soul. 🌋💙

Missing my morning coffee’s in Mexico ☕️ One thing I love very much about Tulum - is the great amount of good brunch and coffee places. A lot of people think Tulum only exists of the city centre ‘Pueblo’, Tulum Beach and the hotel zone. While there are so many more places to explore like La Veleta and Aldea Zama - where you can find some of the cutest spots in town.
