Outfit | Ultimo

This post is the last outfit post I upload from Colombia. With my next trip coming up, I try to put all my travel posts online as soon as possible. I have worn this outfit quite a few times while traveling there, which is why they are not the same in every photo. I think this really is in the top 5 of my favorite travel outfits from this year. The end of the year is not so far from now, but I still have 3 beautiful trips planned. For the 4th time to Lisbon, 3rd time to Valencia and for the second time to Mexico. Very excited! These photos were taken at hotel Movich rooftop and in the historic center of Cartagena. [Lees meer…]

I recently had another super fun collaboration with Tess V. I chose these two super nice items from a range of items and I’m really happy with them! This pair of ‘skorts’ goes straight into my suitcase for my next trip and goes with everything. I really love wearing bright colors. This blouse is quite timeless and can be worn in many ways. I’m going on vacation in a week from now. I hope I can get on the flight and I’m really looking forward to it. Can’t wait to take you on my next travel adventures! I’ve been selecting some outfits for days haha. The last few days have also been really fun. I’ve had a lot of great flights with many special and new people and had drinks with a large group until late into the night. I hope there will be many more fun days like the past few days!

Hi everyone. The moment I make this post, I’m finally in Mexico! This outfit is from my Ibiza trip from earlier this month. I think it’s really cool how many neon colors I see coming back in collections this year, and this dress is one of them. In Dubai last year I wore something in this same cool color. I really like this dress and have had it in my closet for a few months now. In the Netherlands I don’t often have the opportunity to put on such cool dresses in my spare time, but on holiday I like to unpack! These photos were taken in front of my hotel swimming pool. I was in a nice quiet spot in Cala Llonga, quite a distance from all the partying. I came to Ibiza with the intention of relaxing, seeing the beautiful island, eating good food and touring with a car. These plans certainly worked! The same goes for Mexico. I am very curious what the next few days will bring me. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone, I now have a wonderful 17 days holiday from work, but I’m still very busy with mainly fun things, an interview, 3 day trip to Alicante, my friends and 2 shoots in one week. I like to plan my days full, but also keep a lot of days completely empty. I have a lot of time to relax. In the meantime, I have also started ‘floating’ and did it twice already, a really great recommendation if you want to completely relax on your own.

Hi everyone. This is my 3rd and last outfit post from Split. My Dubai and Split travel diaries are still on the way! This beautiful outfit is from my last day in Split. Pink is one of my favorite colors to wear, so I love this dress. The place where I am is called Marjan Hill Stairs. Definitely a recommendation! Only with the enormous heat a little less great haha. But the view was worth the steps! I like viewpoints when I travel, so this was a nice activity for my last day there. [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.

I just got back from a trip to Italy. It originally started as a trip planned to Ibiza, then Alicante, then Zakynthos and since 2 weeks it had become Palermo… well because; corona and changing country color codes … but the government has kept this one nicely yellow. I was finally able to spontaneously travel together with a sweet colleague who I have not known for very long, during our coincidentally similar date holiday. Almost all my travel plans for this year have failed due to color codes, lockdowns and people that cancelled, so it’s great to finally be able to leave. I got this dress from Loavies and found it perfect for a trip. These cute heels are from the (sale!) at Primark and I bought the necklace at My Jewellery. This outfit is from the 4th day.

Hi everyone! I hope you can keep yourself busy during these weird times. I try to shoot some outfits, because that is still allowed during the 1,5 meters rule, so no man overboard in this. I can keep myself busy luckily. My car has a huge dent because I had lent it to somebody – that is something I can cry about atm. But that too can be repaired properly (I hope). Try to enjoy the wonderful temperatures in the country, in the ways that are still possible! I wore this dress in Malaga a month ago. This dress is really lovely to wear during summer. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! I hope you are doing well in this world wide, weird time. I haven’t flown a lot lately due to the world wide crisis. Some of the only flights I have performed were repatriation (rescue) flights, to bring people back to the Netherlands safely. I hope this weird period will be over soon in the world. Fortunately, we are still allowed to leave our house for a walk here in the Netherlands, with sufficient distance. Jeremy (my best friend) and I decided to go for a walk in a park nearby, where I also took pictures of an outfit 3 years ago. Jeremy brought his camera and took pictures of this outfit – after 3 years of not shooting me. I bought this cozy pink teddy coat at Loavies six months ago, I want to have this outfit photographed for six months already. [Lees meer…]

One day you’ll realize you were never β€œtoo much”. You were just in the wrong place, around the wrong people.

What’s one thing you’ve been told you’re β€œtoo much” for? πŸ‘‡

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. πŸ‡²πŸ‡½βœ¨

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. πŸ’«

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