Toni&Guy Hair Meet Wardrobe event


























Yesterday I attended a very nice event in Amsterdam, organized by hair styling brand Toni&Guy. (You know, just like the famous hair salon chain Toni&Guy). They presented their new product line, the Hair Meet Wardrobe collection. The name reveals the intentions: match your hairstyle to your fashion style!

The product line is divided into three different looks, Casual, Creative and Glamour (in some countries it also includes Classic). Toni&Guy's Global Hair Ambassador, Mark Hampton was present to explain what you can do to match your hair & wardrobe. And... he gave us all the juicy details on working backstage for the London Fashion Week, shooting editorials, etc. Stylist Renu Kashyap dressed the models with to-die-for clothes... that was no surprise; she's got great style!

The model in the kaki jacket was sporting a Casual style, like a model off-duty. The girl with the high bun and glitzy necklace was of course representing the Glamour look. And last but not least, the model wearing the pink top was the Creative type, with a touch of rock&roll.

Besides the presentation there was a DJ, prosecco and yummy snacks. Fish & chips and English pies, in honour of the British brand. However the British connection, my hair was done by an Italian guy!! (My destiny I would say). Thanks Federico, I felt like Anita Ekberg in La Dolce Vita. Mark bringing me a glass of bubbles just added to the experience... What a great party!

I miss Italy....




Today I was looking through my (zillions of) photos of Italy and realised how much I miss it! They say "a picture is worth more than a thousand words". So just take a look. Wouldn't you want to wake up to this view tomorrow?

Mini Fair at Bikinibiza HQ, Amsterdam















This weekend I went to a "Mini Fair" organized by Bikinibiza and friends at their headquarters in Amsterdam. There was a sample sale of their wonderful bikinis, there were brand new and vintage sneakers, jeans, dresses, the cutest jewelry, beautiful paintings, photography, delicious drinks and bites... and beautiful people!

The mini fair was a big succes, so chances are the event will be repeated soon. Unfortunately, I did not bring my camera, but at least I could take some shots with my cell phone. Next time make sure you stop by and get your hands on one of those great bargains!

Almost Summer (really)










Summer is starting up very slowly this year... There are days that I'm still wearing my winter coat. But today the weather was finally better... warmer, sunny, with a blue sky. Everybody was outside, walking on the beach, enjoying the first warm sunrays!
