Exhibition


Fall



Grief
Hope
Rain

Yesterday I went with some friends to The Hague for an exhibition from Erwin Olaf. This photographer is very succesfull and I am a big fan of his work.

His pictures are recognizable for their styled perfection but behind this perfection there is this atmosphere of sadness. Some photos look like paintings, very amazing.
In this exhibition there were four of his latest series, Rain, Hope, Grief and Fall.
This man is a genious.
Because I had an appointment later that day back in Amsterdam I walked back alone and made some pictures on my way to the central station. They were building there and the machines they used were looking if they came out of an earlier century. With a lot of noise and steam.




I'm always fascinated by (old) industry because of the shapes and size of these machines, buildings and so on.. Quite weird, I know ...
Clothes: dress (roxy), belt (h&m), fake fur little coat (?), cardigan (zipper), panty (hema), shoes (sascha), bag (thailand)

Modelhouse



House of model Daria Werbowy by Derek Kettela
I really like the athmosphere of Daria's house. So much light and space, filled with vintage furniture and memories of her journeys, shows and shoots.
And she can draw amazing!

Fashion love*











This is why I love fashion.. These six designers just blowed me away.

The exotic, strong dresses from Alexander Mcqueen with amazing structures and shapes.

Balmain made the perfect combination of being a sweet girl with a tough and independent side. Best of both worlds.. Love the jeans and the blazers.

ChloƩ's pastel colors and high waisted skirts and trousers are so feminine and strong. I really liked the black jumpsuit.

Shame on me but I had never heard of Collette Dinnigan before but with this collection I'm not afraid I'll forget her. Her dresses were soo beautiful, the girly flowers and butterflies and the edgy short black dresses with studs totally rock.

Mister John Galliano did it again, his collection looked like a modern Marie Antoinette.
Absolutely adore the bright, candy looking colors.

And then Narciso Rodriquez, lots of black and white ensembles, amazing blazers, dresses and leggings. I loved the shapes and lining, so strong and fierce.

Yeah, fashion makes me happy :)

Miss Irina






Irina Lazareanu by Chris Craymer
I absolutely adore (these pictures of) Irina Lazareanu, she's not just gorgoues but she also has a really strong personality and at the same time their is something childish around her.
She really belong to one of my favourite models.
Who's your favourite model?
