My personal alternative facts

January 24, 2017

Alternative facts Just when you think you’ve heard and seen it all, there it is. A brand new phenomena: ‘alternative facts’. Alternative facts, hmmm, I like the sound of it…. The sky’s the limit, right?! I’d say it’s just Trump-speak for ‘fiction’ or ‘lies’. But hey, who am I??? Nothing and nobody, of course, compared […]

Fete des Tetes presents Moviestars 2016 edition

January 2, 2017

Celebrating New Year’s Eve at Fete des Tetes I’m not particularly a fan of New Year’s Eve. Especially not in the Netherlands, with all the super scary, dangerous fireworks flying around your ears and all. But when I stumbled upon a dressed-up theme and dance party at the Toneelschuur, we decided to buy tickets for […]

Pink Christmas Tree at last!

December 23, 2016

I’m dreaming of a pink Christmas…. I dreamed about a pink christmas tree since some years now. Until now we always had a big, real christmas tree in the house. Nice, but I find it quite the hassle. It’s expensive, if you add up your expenses over the years. The needles fall out rapidly and […]

The adventures of the famous Yellow Skirt in Singapore

September 25, 2016

The adventures of the famous Yellow Skirt in Singapore

Once upon a time… In 2012, Melanie from Bagandaberet, did a post about an outrageously-yellow skirt. After that, the idea was born to let the Yellow Skirt travel around the world, from blogger to blogger. And it’s been on the road ever since. You can read all about the Yellow Skirt here. The places she’s been, […]

Trip down memory lane

September 5, 2016

Decluttering my way through life From time to time I fall prey to an insane reorganizing and decluttering attack. Or -as the fashionable peeps call it nowadays-: I suddenly find myself Marie Kondo-ing my home. A new verb and activity, named after the immensely popular Japanese declutter-and-reorganize guru. I can’t claim that you heard it here first, […]

The best tips, do’s and don’ts for curly hair

The story of my curls When I was a little girl, I had big, light-blond curls. Before sharing my tips, do’s and dont’s for curly hair, let me first share my hair story with you. By the way: I already wrote about curls and frizz before; once for the blog 40plusstyle and once on […]

Happy New Year! Welcome 2016

January 1, 2016

Dear readers, I don’t know about you, but 2015 was not the best year for me. The loss of my dear friend Marieke was a blow that still hurts today, my husband working 16 hours a day, 7 days per week bothers and worries me, and me being sick a lot of the time sucked […]

No better watch than a Swatch

November 11, 2015

Confession: I have at least 35 watches It’s no news that I’m a controlled hoarder. A collectionneur. A more is more person. The queen of accessories. So it should not come as a surprise that I own around 35 watches. Just a chick on a decluttering spree Remember how I went on a decluttering/reorganizing spree […]
