Editor at large Karin Swerink
Me in front of the abriYesterday evening I headed to the office of Glamour magazine where the team was enjoying champagne and french fries. We then headed out, ready for some action! (Peep toe heels wasn't the smartest choice at hand)
It's the inside that counts is now painted over Glamour abri's all over Holland by the Glamour vandalista's. Even the cops showed up! Glamour editor at large Karin Swerink told me last night: "This fashion statement obviously applies to the inside of the magazine. And Glamour is not just about the latest Balenciaga jeans. It's about feeling comfortable in your own skin and living your own life. We love beautiful clothes, from Prada to Zara. But true Glamour comes from within!"

the H&M Garden Collection
What I wore to the showroom
Every girl likes to dream off to a more romantic setting now and then. And the H&M Garden Collection does the tric! Bright red roses, garden inspired collors, the print of a wild bouquet, it's all there. Next to the surprising cuts and details, the clothes have a luxurious feel to them as they are all made of sustainable or recycled materials. On top of that, this exclusive collection is available at the regular H&M price point. A good thing, since I want it all...!
On monday I had an appointment with Aukje and Sabine at the H&M showroom. Not only were the girls great, I also had the time to indulge in the incredible collections H&M is bringing us for spring. At first I noticed the Garden Collection has a lot of multi-colored prints, which gives that instant summer feeling. THen I discovered some items have a 70's, boho vibe to it and these mostly come in blues and whites. (Like the blue dungaree dress, which would look great with a white tank and fedora hat!) The other part has a more romantic and glamorous feel to it and consists of nudes, whites and red. The Garden Collection hits the stores at the end of March, so you better start saving!

Yesterday I visited the EnD show at fashion week. The clothes were inspired by the dark and edgy femininity of the 40's and 50's film noir. These outfits can be worn right off the runway, and I can definately picture myself in them. My favorites are the flowy blouses, detailed leather skirts and strong shoulders. If I just forget about food and only buy EnD clothes from now, I'm a happy camper...!

Me, Sabrina (aftedrk) and Monique (girlscene) on the second row
Just as interesting as what comes down the runway is what the visitors of the show are wearing. From the boldest creations to jeans with Uggs, it's all there. For me it was an easy pick because this dress arrived on the same day as the show. Would love to wear it with bare legs and heels, but the snow is back... (It's one of fashions worst enemies. You won't believe how many girls I saw struggling in the snow on their heels!)

Seeing what designers come up with season after season always inspires me, so I was glad to visit Claes Iversen's show today. The color scheme reminded me of that Dries van Noten collection from 1 or 2 years back, it right on trend for this summer. What I love even more is his conceptual work, hence the post-it bridal dress. Last collection Claes did a post-it collared trench, so awesome! I might have to start sticking those little yellow fellas on to my mini skirt this summer... what do you think? Post-it or lose it?

In describing my night at the ELLE Style Awards, I think pictures speak louder than words. The best part of the evening? Having a great time with two gorgeous and funny girls, Andy from Style Scrapbook and Nicole. Or sipping champagne and cranberry vodka with my favorite columnist Oscar (who we dubbed OsCarrie Bradshaw)... Or sitting front row at the H&M stylist fashion show... Or chit chatting and hitting the dancefloor with ever so stylish editor at large Cécile. OK, I can't decide! So just see for yourself ;)

Just a few days after I met up with Sabrina, I had another date with her and Cindy and Marit (her blog is offline right now). Us four bloggers had a great time shopping, sipping coffee and going to dinner. We've hung out before, so it was nice to see these girls again. And I love blogger meetups. Because you're involved in the same thing you can talk about blogging for an hour straight, without anyone getting bored :P Can't believe New Years Eve is tomorrow! Are you excited?
