the Netherlands - part one

Back "home" in the Netherlands, in Arnhem to be precise,
Most of these buildings date back to the 15th century, this is in the center of the town, funny enough growing up I didn't really spent much attention to them, it was natural, now after 4.5 years New York I'm actually pretty much in love with the Archetecture!! Most of these pearls were destroyed during 2nd world war and the fight over the bridges... This last building is called "the devils house", 15th century too decorated with devils, werewolfs etc..

The Bakery, more than 100 years old is a favorite, this bread is called "grofje"I'm not sure but it might even be that its a city thing and hard to find in other city's... not sure though,
I was running errand for my trip to Sicily in a few hours haha, packing again!!

After I come back I will show you more Netherlands and where I grew up :)

I'm wearing a "leather" skirt from the H&M, silk t-shirt from the Zara, Vintage purse, Jeffery Campbell Ann d Lace Up boots, my Moms cardigan

I met up with Jamie in Greenpoint Brooklyn, We were browsing the locations there and took some shots, I loveeeee his photography and Greenpoint is def a area where you can find me a lot!

The outfit is actually a subtle layer galore, I'm really into these layers lately, Its my Complex Geometries hooded tee, Alexander Wang blazer and H&M biker vest with my Zara boots, talking about H&M there are some really awesome hats I'm luring at, and at Zara there is this black Mongolian Fur vest I tried on like 10 times already but couldn't make up my mind...

The packing so far is a disaster, my suitcase is way to heavy so I will have to dive back in to take things out :( I guess I will need to be creative in Europe (I'm having my Mothers closet in mind as well as my Dad's old rolling stone tees)

the first thing I always do back home ( last time I was there is about a year ago) is shopping my own closet, I should have a pair of black dr martens there :) ughhhh 11 hour flight tomorrow :( sux!!!
