One of my favorite fashion series on television is What Not To Wear. In this show stylists Stacy London and Clinton Kelly give women, whose style is just a big no-no, a fashion make over. These women are nominated by their friends and family to be on the show because they think that help is much needed. If these women agree to play by the rules of Stacy and Clinton they get a credit card worth of 5000 dollars to get a whole new wardrobe by shopping in New York. Not only do they get to buy a whole new wardrobe, they also get a new hair style from hair stylist Ted Gibson, and a whole new look from make up artist Carmindy.

This week I wrote about my Topshop discovery in Amsterdam and that it’s located as a shop in shop in the very chique department store de Bijenkorf. As it happened I wanted to pay a visit to de Bijenkorf for a long time now, because I had a gift card, and also wanted to visit Topshop. This way I could visit them both at once! Also this week from 2 – 6 april it’s the “Maffe Marathon” at de Bijenkorf, which literally means “Crazy Marathon”, with 5 days of discounts and special offers. So thursday I went to de Bijenkorf and finally visited Topshop. Continue reading “My first Topshop visit and purchase”

The King and Queen of Hip Hop are celebrating their 6 year wedding anniversary today, It was 6 years ago that this couple decided to say I do on a very private wedding in New York City on Friday April 4th 2008. I remember this day so well as I was watching E! news and saw this come by as breaking news. Some how they knew that all the commotion at Jay’s Tribeca NY penthouse and a white tent on the rooftop was the secret wedding of Bey and Jay, and knowing how private B is I believed it immediately. And I think it was the best decision these two made on their most special day. Continue reading “Happy sixth year wedding anniversary Beyoncé and Jay-Z”
You might have heard the song before. “Me ah di gyal inna di tight up skirt. Mi ah di gyal inna di tight up skirt. Wine mi waist show you what mi worth.” It is the dancehall song Tight Skirt by Samantha J, a teenage Jamaican model and singer-songwrirer, born in 1996 Kingston Jamaica. The music video of this song starts with a scene in a classroom, which reminds us of the first music video of Britney Spears: Baby one more time.

I’ve heard about Topshop via internet and was a little bummed that it isn’t in the Netherlands. So I thought. Oh, well when I’m in the UK or USA I will visit this store because they have great fashion pieces. I like it, I wanna see more. Men, why isn’t this shop here? Bummer! All this was going through my mind when I saw their fashion for the first time. Just two days ago I found out that Topshop is also in the Netherlands. That is the moment when I googled Topshop and read that there is a store in the Netherlands indeed. Continue reading “My Topshop discovery”
