Jeans girl

I`m quite a jeans girl, sometimes a bit too much if you ask me. My favorite brands are Citizens of Humanity and Seven for all mankind. I do try to wear my jeans not too shabby though, by pairing them with a chique blazer, a silk tunic and some nice jewelry.

According to Lidewij Edelkoort (wich i wrote a post about, just scroll a bit down) jeans is making it`s comeback. The Dutch Elle did an ed about jeans, but in a very shabby chique way, just the way i like it!

IJm

About a month ago there was a big hype in Blog land, called IJm. I think i all started with Emma`s blog who first wrote a post about this Dutch Styling Agency. Well i must say i didn`t hear about them before, and was quite impressed by their portfolio.

What i love about IJm is that they have a distinctive style and always add handmade products to enhance the shoot and make it more personal. Below you can find one of the newest editorials from IJm, wich is all about paper. And pssst.. they also have a blog.

Behind the scenes of Humanoid

One of my favorite Dutch clothing brands is Humanoid. Humanoid has been around for 25 years and if owned by Sandra harmsen (who started the brand and used to be the designer).Sandra describes the brand as sensitive, subtle, tough and strong headed.

I was very happy when i found out that the Dutch Elle Interior did an behind the scenes article about Humanoid.So have a look, but wait first i have to show you their S/S 2009 collection.
I wonder if Humanoid is looking for a new designer;-)...?

Humanoids latest collection...

Traditionial Dutch Clothing

Every countrey has their traditional clothing and so does the Netherlands. The Dutch Elle did an editorial with the costumes but off course they gave it a modern twist. Look below for a surpisingly stunning editorial.

Dreaming of Toscane

In the Dutch Elle interior I came across this beautiful editorial.The stylist intention was to create an Italian setting with a bit of Vermeer (a famous Dutch painter). I think he certainly succeeded and the combination of the two turned out beautifully. The dress and the shoes are from the Dutch designer Jan Taminiau. And the blouse is from Tsumori Chisato.
