Inspiration with Victoria Beckham

Hi lovelies,

How is your week so far? Mine is great, I did a lot of shopping and who doesn't love shopping! 

But today it's going to be all about this very inspiring woman - Victoria Beckham.

She is turning 40 today and to celebrate this wonderful woman I wanted to do a post about her. Since I was a little girl I was fascinated by her.. I was a fan of the spice girls (who wasn't?) and we always fought about who was going to be which spice girl. My struggle about which one I wanted to be was always between Baby Spice or Posh Spice. After all these years I can tell you with certainty that Posh Spice definitely won! 

She isn't a spice girl anymore (i'm glad about that) but she turned into a super woman! She is so much more than a football wife or an ex spice-girl. She is an amazing designer, with a beautiful feminine collection. I love her sense of style, it's so elegant and clean. She only works with the most beautiful fabrics and with the most talented people! As you can read I'm a big fan.
I watched a documentary about her on the blog http://www.fashionculturediary.blogspot.it and I really wanted to share this documentary with you because she is such an inspiring person and the documentary will prove how talented she is.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VICTORIA!

With Love, J.

The Short Story

Hi lovelies,

How is your weekend so far? Mine is great, the weather is so sunny over here in Holland it makes me happy and wishing it was summer already! 

When the temperature is getting higher and the sun starts to shine I can't wait to pull out my shorts again.. Shorts are one of my favorite pieces for spring and summer, because you can combine them in so many different ways. You can put heels under it to make your outfit more feminine, but you can also wear them with flats and a nice simple t-shirt or top for a casual look. And another great thing you have them in so many different types. You have the denim shorts for a casual or tough look but also the very classy, feminine ones made from cotton or lace. So there is a perfect short for everyone!

As you can read I really love the short! Just to give you some ideas how you can wear different styles when it comes to a short I collected some of my favorite combinations for some inspiration..

What is your favorite way to combine your shorts?

With Love, J.

   

Getting Fit with Victoria Secret.

Hi Lovelies,

Are you already working out for the perfect body for the summer? I am, at least I'm trying.. But I can tell you it isn't easy with all the other things I've got to do.

Lately I follow this little workout videos from Victoria Secret and it is working for me. The workouts have a really good routine and they are presented by Doutzen Kroes, don't we all want a body like that?! 

So I wanted to share them with you, enjoy watching and working out!

Doing your core.

Creating strong arms.

Are you gonna try these routines?

Victoria Beckham blows off second New York Fashion show.

Hi Lovelies,

Did you hear? Victoria Beckham cancels her Victoria, Victoria Beckham show. 

This was her second show on New York Fashion Week. She reported that the press materials were not ready to show. The Victoria, Victoria Beckham fashion line will include more affordable items. A new date for the collection showcase is yet to be confirmed. Hubby David is either way supportive towards his wife and reported to The Telegraph: "I'm really excited about the Victoria, Victoria Beckham line for autumn/winter 2014." 

I couldn't agree more with David, I was looking forward to this show and I think it's a real bummer that she blow it off.

What do you think of the bow out of the second show?

With Love, J.

 

New York Fashion Week update

Hi Lovelies,

Because my lack of time I will post an update about the big shows until now of NYFW. I picked out some of my favorite Big shows and collected some pictures and videos from the shows.

At first Helmut Lang. I think this collection is very classic with the black, white and beige colors. It's feminine with clean lines and that makes it very wearable. The collection has a lot of warm sweaters for next fall/winter. 

The second Big show I really liked is the show of Alexander Wang.

The new collection has very diverse items which made it perfect for everyone. Specially the military look was surprising and definitely different from the rest which made it fun and interesting to watch. I really loved that they used a lot of grays and blue colors. 

Big show number three is the show of DKNY. The DKNY show was very diverse and i'm not only talking about the clothes, even the models were diverse. DKNY wanted to present the theme "New York is the Dream". They definitely captured that theme with this show. I think it's an interesting show to watch.

The fourth Big show I wanted to share with you is the show of Victoria Beckham.

I think the collections of Victoria Beckham are always very classic, wearable and feminine. The new fall/winter collection of 2014 isn't different in that way, but the items in the collection are classic with a special touch this time. One thing that is coming back in a few looks is the chain, what makes it a little tougher. The collection shows a lot of black & white and some feminine dresses.

What do you think of the new collections?

I think they are very wearable and trendy.

With Love, J.
