I love a good giveaway for my readers, AND I really like to give some air-time to up and coming designers. Hence this giveaway in collaboration with Illustrated People and Dropgifts. Illustrated People design and handprinted t-shirts, such as the one I am wearing in the photo, in East London. They have a great collection of tops, t-shirts, hoodies, and so on. You should definitely take a look at their website!
This giveaway is now closed! The winner is announced on my Facebook page
Another look from Amsterdam Fashion Week. Sorry that I am wearing these sneakers again, but it was from the point of view that I am running around all day taking photos, and that I didn’t want to ruin my feet in the process… I got a lot of questions about my t-shirt, people think I turned it inside-out, but fact of the matter is, it’s supposed to be this way. Almost all Zoe Karssen tees are like this. It kind of her signature.

Back to the shows! One show, Gestuz, was very special to me, as my sister was on the catwalk! I had never seen her in real-life on the catwalk, so I was over excited as you can imagine. See her below in the first photo!
Soon more looks and Fashion Week reviews, check them also out here, where I write for Maybelline!
When looking at my photos I think you notice that I am working with a different photographer, and I am sure you think you know her from somewhere… That’s true! Lisa works with Sabrina from AfterDRK, which is also how I got to know her. Cause let me tell you, when being away from my boyfriend, I am away from my usual photographer. So I needed a back-up plan for Amsterdam Fashion Week! Lisa did a really nice job don’t you think? Soon more…
Sweater: Zara
Trousers: Zara
Sneakers: Isabel Marant

Now back to the shows…
I have too much to share from the past days at Amsterdam Fashion Week. Way too many amazing photos and videos (read my catwalk reviews here). I simply don’t know where to start! So, to give you the idea you were there too I decided to share with you my favourite part of my three favourite shows so far: The finales from INDIVIDUALS (AMFI), Bas Kosters, and Spijkers & Spijkers! I really hope you like them, and that you can feel the amazing vibe I felt with every show (though they are obviously totally different).
Amsterdam Fashion Week started with two amazing shows: Claes Iversen and Marga Weiers. Both showcased their unique views on fashion, without any clichés, and very fashion forward. I’ve written a review about the shows for Maybelline, you can find them here: Claes / Marga. This brings me also to the project I wanted to tell you about: the coming days I will upload many more reviews and backstage photos, as Maybelline is one of the reasons I am here! I’m working together with them the coming days, which is kind of super exciting!
Amsterdam Fashion Week starts today, and I will be around all five days to report from the shows and backstage (more about that later)! One of my essentials, I was looking for a clear one but this is an awesome color too, is this PVC clutch that the mailman delivered to me yesterday! I’m off to catch my plane now, please say HI if you see me around at the Westergas Terrein!
Ps. Sorry for the bad quality photo, I was too late to take it in daylight…
