The new bohemian style

I have been absent from the blog for a while, busy with big projects in my personal life. However everything falls in place after a while. Im still figuring out my island style combined with fashion trends.

This little number is "the new bohemian" style. Think peasant tops and dresses and prints that remind you of a middle-eastern vacation. Like strolling on a Marrakech market and snapping shots from above of Mediterranean and Arabesque design tiled floors.

 My dress; Flying Tomato, other cool prints: "here", "here", "here"

Short Weekend

Summer is approaching, however the nice thing about our island, it is summer all year round! Rock a pair of pom-pom shorts and pair it with a "off-the-shoulder crochet top" for a boho island style look. 

These pieces are from my favorite store on the island; The Front Row

~Happy Saturday~

Top and Short; The Front Row, Curaçao, Bamboo hoop earrings; Urban Outfitters (get them "here")

Luau

Going to the Luau, getting lei'd (those are the flower garlands). These leis where hand-made by family member. One of the garlands was made from little jasmine like flowers and smelled amazing. Others where made with orchids and carnations (my dads favorites).

I just think it is an awesome tradition! 

Happy Weekend.

Tip; How to save a lei? put it in the fridge!

Dress; The Front Row, Curaçao (worn "here" first), Earrings; Monki, Sunnies; Thrifted (old)

Wild Tropicana

I had made this skirt months ago, before I even knew I was going to Hawaii. I had been waiting for the perfect occasion to wear it and finally it had arrived! Hawaii is filled with the plumeria flowers, they are the ones that you wear in your hair, left side if your taken and right side if your single (what a tradition, right, talking about labeling...). I just like it because it looks so feminine.

Skirt; DIY, Shirt; H&M (last year), Necklace; Forever21 (old), Sunnies; Urban Outfitters, Lipstick; Chanel #37

Aloha from Hawaii

Now back in Amsterdam, I had a few wonderful days in Hawaii and LA, spending fun times with family. Walking the beach in front of the house we stayed at, in the mornings. Drinking Hawaii Kona coffee and having tropical fruits for breakfast. I wish I could go for one of those refreshing morning walks right now....

Top; H&M, Shorts; Zara, Bikini; Primark

Tropical Fruits in Hawaii

At Pali lookout, halfway in the mountains, over a thousand feet above the coast line. Overlooking the northern side of the island of Oahu and the Koolau Cliffs. It was a cloudy and windy day, yet very tranquil and amazing sight. 

Top; Kuccia, Asos ("here"), Skirt; H&M, Bucket Bag; Marc Jacobs

Cadaqués, Spain in Snapshots

Cadaqués is a tiny town on the North-East of spain. Home to Famous artist Salvador Dali who lived and worked in his house, as displayed as he had left it after he died. As you drive in, from a zig-zag road through the mountins (the only way in-and-out of town), you notice all houses and buildings are white, with primarily blue, or deep red or green windows and doors. The delicious Spanish foods like; Jamon Ibérico, Manchego cheese and Pan con Tomate. The weather is great, views are beautiful an the peope are friendly.

You should definitely stop by one time!

Benvinguts a Cadaqués!! My weekend in snapshots in Spain.
