Two days in Madrid For our fall/winter collection and new inspiration, we took a trip to beautiful Madrid. Madrid is a beautiful, lively city full of terraces, beautiful sights and it is often wonderfully warm. The best time to plan a trip to Madrid is in the spring from March to June or in the fall. DAY 1 We started the day at the Agrado cafe. This is a very cute cafe   where you can go for a delicious avocado toast, yogurt with fresh granola and the oat cappu should of course not be missing! After breakfast we went to the Bisutex fair and we gained a lot of inspiration for the new season! To see as much as possible, it is of course best to do everything on foot as much as possible! Madrid has an excellent metro network. You never have to wait long for the metro, because during rush hours the...

You have probably already spotted them in our webshop and on Instagram: the Bonfim de Bahia bracelets! Bonfim de Bahia bracelets have been a symbol in Brazil for more than 200 years and are increasingly known worldwide. The tradition of the bands began in the form of silk bows with handwritten texts in silver or with ink. Nowadays the straps are worn on the wrist or ankle or they are tied around the gate of a church. They are also worn on hats, bags and nicely combined in the interior. However you wear them, they will bring you happiness and hope! You are supposed to tie a Bahia bracelet with 3 buttons and make a wish at each button. When the band breaks, these wishes will come true! Cutting or breaking the strap has a reverse effect and creates bad luck. Each color also has a different meaning and therefore stands for...

The curfew in the Netherlands means that a lot of binge watching can be done again! It's not ideal, but we can be lucky that we live in 2021 and are no longer at the mercy of a Nokia phone where only Snake could be played. We have listed 5 fun series that will get you through in the near future: Bridgerton If you have missed all the hype around this, we will immediately update you! The Bridgerton series is based on the eight-book series of the same name. Set in London, it zooms in on the lives of eight siblings who are looking for love and happiness. A nice series with mutual drama and here and there a steamy scene between Daphne and the handsome duke Simon. Unfortunately there is only 1 season with 8 episodes, but it has already been announced that 7 more seasons will follow. We can't wait! Lupin This...

On October 31st worldwide the horror festival Halloween is celebrated, but in all seriousness we are in love with the following festivity that will be celebrated in Mexico on November 1 and 2: Dia de los Muertos, also known as Day of the Dead. This tradition dates back to the Mayan and Aztec times some 2,000 years ago and is still traditionally celebrated. The holiday is even on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Mexicans believe that children's souls return to Earth on November 1 and adults on November 2 and they celebrate this on the Day of the Dead. On this day, Mexicans go to the family grave to eat the dead person's favorite dish and recall fun stories about this person. Something that symbolizes this day is the sugar skull and we can't get enough of the colorful sugar skull look. It's like art. If after...

Scrunchies ... we can't ignore it for a while and we really like that!

The scrunchie scarf Scrunchie scarves are also completely hot! They are usually made of silk and have nice prints. And how nice is a scrunchie scarf on your ponytail?

Bring it on with another Spanish series! And one that takes place on, yes, Ibiza. Alex Pína, the mastermind behind La Casa de Papel and Vis a Vis, has managed to create another gem: White Lines. The series is set around Zoe Walker, a British woman who returns to Ibiza after her brother's body that went missing 20 years earlier was found there, on the estate of a powerful family. Despite the fact that Zoe ended up in a deep hole after her brother went missing, she is now looking for answers in the environment where her brother worked as a DJ, but she does not trust anyone. Within 24 hours on the island, Zoe, who normally lives a quiet life in Manchester, stole 7 pounds of cocaine from Axel's childhood friend Marcus and shot someone with a harpoon in the leg. Crazy, right? It doesn't stop there....
