New stuff



Yesterday I shared a list of items that had entered the online shop My Theresa. Today I'm showing you the items that I have welcomed into my closet. First I bought a black trenchcoat at HM Trend, which I previously showed in the HM Trend Fall favorites. At COS I bought two tees a sheer striped black one and a green speckled one, I also bought leather sandals and a green clasp bracelet. Finally I also added another pair of shoes, black leather heeled ones from Next to be precise. What do you think? xx

New furniture


A few days ago I bought these lovely pieces from my niece. She has her on shop called Home@ssorti, where she sells articles she redesigned or polished. You can also find perfect gift items like soap, cards, perfume bottles and many more.  I think I'm going to use the small drawer to store ribbons and other sewing stuff. The little table/stool is perfect to keep plants. What do you think of these new items? xx

France Besançon


Here are the last photos of our holiday in France two weeks ago. I attempted to soak in as much sun as possible, but after 1 minute in the burning sun I already got too much. So at the end of our holiday my skin still looked snow white, as a matter of fact it still does ;) Anyways, I love this new tee which Mart gave me because he knows I don't own many tees (while writing this I decided I needed more tees so I just ordered a few at COS) I love its Hawaii print a lot, very summery!

1001 flies and extensions


Hi guys, I can hear you thinking '1001 flies and extensions, what?!' Well let me explain, the first three photos are made today on a little biking trip. I really like spending some time on my bike, but I hate hate hate all these stupid flies. I probably ate 10 flies today and had to wipe 1001 flies of my face ;)

Then the other three photos are of the extensions I received from 1001extensions. A while ago they asked me to review a set of their extensions and since I've never had extensions I agreed to try them out. I really like that their extensions are made of real human hair and are available in many colors. I found the perfect color, it really matches with my own hair color.

They are easy to add because of the clips, they even added three extra clips. The only problem is the thickness, they told me that if I had thick hair I should tell so I would receive two packages, but I thought my hair was normal. So I can really recommend everyone to order two packages because as you can see one isn't enough ;)

Amsterdam Fashion Week Sunday

Above you can find four looks of the 2love Tony Cohen collection. I like the material use and color scheme. The collection was very detailed and contained many different looks. I like both the metallic dress and the trousers with metallic patches on it. Those sheer fabrics with patterns sewed on remind me of Valentino (is that just me?!).




Beautifully crafted items, loved how edgy this collection looked. These looks are of the Tony Cohen show which is in my opinion normally more feminine. I like the accessories in this collection a lot, especially those leather (?) or waxed cotton hats. I also like the mixed material use, cuts and shapes of these ensembles. xx

Amsterdam Fashion Week Friday

Went to the openingsnight of Amsterdam Fashion Week yesterday. There was a party organized by Colgate where Marlot and I (first photo) had a few drinks. Then we visited some shows, after the first show we met up with Kiki (third photo) and chatted a bit. I made photos of the SIS show, the sisters Spijkers and Spijkers took us back to the seventies and added a bit of country style. I also took photos at the upbeat catwalk show of Maryme-Jimmypaul, loved the positive energy of that show. As you can see the models where dresses in fun and funky clothing in harajuku style. xx

France Grasse




More photos of last week. We visited the perfume city Grasse, those who follow me on Instagram (@heritagemode) already saw shelves filled with old perfume bottles. Grasse not only has several museums about the history of perfume, I visited the Musée International de la Parfumerie, but also many perfume shops and fields with flowers. A really lovely city located at 20 km distance of Nice, Cannes and near Monaco. xx

Holiday shopping



When on holiday there is one thing I just cannot ignore, shops, especially shops that just have their new collection delivered and selling amazing items in sale at the same time. So I went on a little shopping spree while in France and bought some items. Two Levi's curve jeans, the skinny and bootcut skinny both in dark indigo wash. At Sandro I bought an amazing striped silk-blend top with a pink and white bodice and babyblue sleeves and a red cotton linen knitted sweater. At H&M I bought a lilac and blue knit and a striped top in sale, I also bought new running shorts. xx

South France: Nîmes





Another holiday report. Yesterday evening we arrived back home and today I already had to work. These photos were made in Nîmes, a city with a rich history in the South of France. Loved the 18th century Jardin de la Fontaine (Fountain garden) which is the main city park where many people come to chat, walk a bit, eat ice-cream or play jeu de boules. Coming week I'll show some more photos of our holiday in France and this weekend will be about Fashion week since Amsterdam Fashion Week starts coming friday. xx
