The cool season in NY

The cool season in New York begins with fashion week. The beautiful spring and summer collections on the runway brought a cool and colorful crowd of fashion editors, bloggers and models. The bold and beautiful trends of the season were noticeable in the NY Streets. It is all about denim, high heels and cool bags. And the casual coolness and nonchalance of it all looked a little like New York in the nineties, back in the days.

πŸ’™ The mini dresses are cool and comfortable in beautiful shades of blue, white or beige (Maje, Isabel Marant, Twin-Set)

πŸ’™ Blue denim and leather jackets (Armani jeans, Twin-Set)

πŸ’™ The choice of shoes: dress it all down with sneakers or upgrade the casual outfit with colorful high heels (Nike, Choo, Acquazzura, Valentino)

Love her style πŸŒΊ

Some women own a naturally beautiful style 🌺 You may find them within your family and friends, in magazines, in old movies, in fashion blogs, and in the streets and boutiques of beautiful cities like Barcelona, New York, Milan and Firenze. These beautiful, classy women are truly an inspiration to me. And also the cool kids, models, Brooklyn babies and fashion bloggers inspire me with their casual coolness. I love the mix of classic elements with my own casual and cool style. The new chic is presented by cool and comfy clothes in beautiful silhouettes, soft fabrics and textures. For example, a beige cashmere dress, a soft white tee with a Liu jo jeans and Valentino or Acquazzura heels, a white knit dress from Twin-Set or a beige silk dress from Patrizia Pepe with a denim jacket. A sporty cool style is upgraded by the softest materials and chic designs. While classy pieces are dressed down with a tee, denim and sneaks.

Those were the days

I remember my daily luxury when I was growing up in the nineties. I remember when I bought my first cd, Crazy sexy cool by TLC. I loved Aaliyah, TLC, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Friends, Blossom, Sleepless in Seattle and Clueless. I loved the comfort and coolness of the nineties, the long hair, natural makeup, tees and jeans. The natural nonchalance of those days is a source of inspiration for the present. These are your daily luxuries inspired by the nineties for the cool season to come:

  1. Denim and a tee, cool and distressed. A mini denim skirt is perfect πŸ’™. The cool denim and tees from the Liu jo collection are beautiful! (A Liu jo store is opening in the PC Hooftstraat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in the beginning of September πŸ’™)
  2. Soft sweaters (Armani Jeans, Patrizia pepe)
  3. Casual dresses in soft cotton and cashmere (Repeat Cashmere, Isabel Marant, Maje)
  4. Long hair, don’t care.
  5. Natural makeup in beige tones (Dior)
  6. Denim jacket and down jacket (Liu jo, Patrizia pepe)
  7. Black and white tees and tops with a beautiful lace bra (La Perla, Eres)
  8. High top sneakers (Jimmy Choo trainers are classic)
  9. Sporty and casual styled anything. Dress it all down with a baseball cap, tee, denim and sneakers.

Summer in the city

When you spend your summer in a beautiful city, you need a lovely summer collection of daily luxuries to keep you cool in the streets. A lovely outfit in white, beige and peach will delight your summer soul. A beautiful Liu jo jeans with an off shoulder top in white or beige or a macramΓ© top is a perfect summer ensemble for chique days in town (Liu jo, Twin-set, Mango, Patrizia pepe). A little lace is beautiful for summer, too (Liu jo, Twin-set, Intimissimi, Isabel MarantMaje) πŸ’™. Don’t forget to wear romantic earrings and bracelets in the shape of hearts or butterflies to make you look as sweet as a macaron (Tiffany’s, Patrizia pepe). A beige leather bucket bag (Mansur Gavriel) and a pair of heels or slippers (Choo) will complement your classy look. A fresh summer hair cut with a dewy make up is all you need for your beautiful summer style (Dior nude). Dressed in white and beige cashmere, cotton, lace and denim, you will feel like a summer breeze in the city πŸ’™.

Summer lace

On a beautiful summer day the only daily luxuries you need are ice creams, watermelon and summer lace πŸ’™πŸ‰. Soft summer lace, in white, beige and blue, is an essential summer luxury for sensuous days. Summer lace makes you feel sensual, cool and comfy and looks beautiful at home, on the beach, and in the city. For sleepy days at home you can wear beautiful lace lingerie in white, blue and turquoise (La Perla, Intimissimi and Victoria’s secret). The lovely off shoulder tops and knit dresses are this summer’s essentials for beachy days and chique days running around town (Isabel Marant, Maje, Liu jo, Pinko, Patrizia pepe, Twin-set). Summer lace is beautiful on bare skin and looks romantic and chic. Wear your hair down and take someone’s breath away with your lovely summer look.
