Exciting new flow

Wow, it has been a while, but due to a series of wonderful and amazing events in my life. Later more about this new flow but for now the following ~> there's a new exciting project in creative development. Elle & I are currently brainstorming and working on something new which is giving us loads of energy. It's virtual,very graphic and will be built around all the things we love. More about our new flow very soon!

Coeur Blonde Newspaper

Open publication - Free publishing - More amsterdam

One of the new things in my life is the 'Coeur Blonde Newspaper'. Together with Elle I started a mini creative summer of '12 project to spread happiness and a positive flow. The paper consists of 16 pages (tabloidsize)full of articles about the following themes: ☼ green ☼ hotspots ☼ DIY ☼ fashion ☼ body & soul ☼ food ☼ Madrid ☼ shopping ☼ collections ☼ lifestyle ☼ passions ☼ love ☼   


It was an amazing challenge to create the newspaper from scratch. Almost all the images are photo's we took during our trips and everything that's in the newspaper has got a personal touch. From the shop where we just love to buy olive oil to the secret little studio where we love to stay in Paris. We're especially proud of the lay out of the paper and the 'Collection' page which consist of collections we made out of objects.


We made a digital booklet as a sneak preview. It's in Dutch but the lay out gives you a hint of the look & feel of the paper. We're zo glad we started and finished the creative process (we had some software setbacks;-). Now is the time to market the paper and have got to say, the first week went above expectations. The reactions are really cute and are giving us a wonderful boost. It's amazing to share the things that make you happy in life with others and we hope that it brings joy to other people.


Just have a look! If you wish to order a paper, just send us an e-mail: coeurblondepaper@gmail.com.


Love,

Changes

Blogflow

Blogging is a funny thing. For me it´s a way to express myself and especially the creative part of me. Most of the times it   feels really nice and energetic. And it may sound funny, it doesn´t really matter if I blog for one visitor or one hundred visitors, as long as it makes me smile and hopefully you too. Sometimes however I´m not in a ´blogflow´ and this week I decided to accept that. I always aimed to post one item a day but I realized that the magical feeling of an intrinsic post wasn´t always there. So from  now one you can be sure, each time I post something is originates from my core. Have a lovely friday!

Real Italian food in Paris: les vitelloni

L'avenues de Paris

Paris! -> more inspiration following very soon!

Goodmorning Paris!

I just woke up and found fresh croissants hanging on the door of my apartment: how lovely! Am amazed by the style of the Parisiennes in Le Marais, I simply love the combined nonchalence, class and their personal signature. And I found the most inspiring shop: le petit atelier de Paris. Couldn't resist so bought some lovely stuff. And the way the shop wrapped the items: so special and with love. Dinner was amazing yesterday. I followed the advice of Marie and went to a real Italian restaurant; small, simple and fresh: it was heavenly! Sorry I can't post pics from my iPhone so you'll have to wait...

Underground art

Today the underground made me smile! I really love the initiative to decorate it. It enlightens the underground journey.

Off to Paris

So looking forward to this weekend! Travelling to Paris tomorrow: can´t wait! The city of love, inspiration, delicious food & wine, petite boutiques and so much more. Shall take loads of pics to bring back the Paris´ vibe and inspiration. Am staying in a cute studio in Le Marais and am already looking forward to the tarts of ´tartes Kluger´. Have got to pack my tiny suitcase now! Enjoy your weekend!
