The capital city of the Netherlands: Amsterdam. What’s not to like about walking down the canals of Amsterdam, shooting outfit pictures and having lots of fun?

Canals of Amsterdam

Hi Ladies and gents, hope you’ve had an amazing week so far?

Last week I was in Amsterdam for some business meetings, an event and to shoot some outfit pictures. [Read: how to get invited for events.] The day started of great and productive. In the afternoon I had a business meeting while having a delicious lunch. I chose the Skinny Salmon Burger with grilled veggies and a fresh kiwi lemonade. Normally I love fries and buns, but today I decided to do things differently. I think I’m going to remake that lemonade sometime, it was absolutely divine. Once I’ve managed the same taste, I’ll share my recipe with you.

Later on I  teamed up with my friend and fellow blogger the preppy fashionista Virgit. We where extremely lucky, just 5 minutes before we had our shoot it was raining really badly.  But all of a sudden it stopped. The sun began to shine and it became basically a real sunny and warm day!

We walked along the canals of Amsterdam, searching for a good spot who would match our outfits. We found the perfect place, but we had to wait for some people to move along. You always have car traffic down the canals of Amsterdam. People on bikes, people walking through your photo’s, people staring, people who suddenly want to take pictures on the same spot… But we managed to shoot some really cool outfit pictures and the result is exactly like I had in mind.

In the evening I went to an event: the opening of the store “Otentic Perfumes” in the Negen Straatjes. It was love at first sight such a  pretty and luxurious store. Their perfume bottles all look so chique. If you want to see an impression of this event and have a look inside this gorgeous store, now you can. I’ve published a video and article featuring the lovely store “Otentic Perfumes”, last Wednesday.
