Fashiolista Events

Again Fashiolista had an eventful month! A lovely lunch and runway show at Dutch designer brand Ready To Fish, an office warming for ilovefashionnews.nl, the intimate get-together of the Y-community, the opening of flagship store Escada, the Modefabriek and of course we attended Amsterdam International Fashion Week. We even went across our Dutch border for an amazing London trip for John Lewis.

Watch our second Event Video and feel the vibe!

Make a flawless appearance with a tiny bit of see-trough!

A beloved basic, that’s how we call this subtle button-up shirt. We’ve seen it on many bloggers and celebs during fashion weeks from New York and Paris up till London. But why do we love this simpel item so much? The perfect flawless material of these blouses are giving us the comfort we need and at the same time it adds this certain classy-laid-back attitude. You can pick your own style by playing with patterns, pockets, bows and prints. And how fun is that?

Start loving right away!

How to get the look of bombshell Rosie?

You may know her as one of the Victoria Secret models, the face of Burberry beauty, or as the girlfriend ‘Carly Spencer’ of Shia LaBeouf in Transformers 3. However, we noticed that besides acting in a major blockbuster and looking good in front of the camera, this British model slash actress has more to offer. During any work event, premier and after party Miss Huntington-Whitley just looks drop dead gorgeous. - But how does she do that? – We will show you!
For this ‘Celeb Style Report’ we chose a more casual off-duty look so you can achieve an outfit similar to the featured look yourself.

Good luck Fashiolista’s!
