Insta-inspired

by Marlies Dekkers
Watch these girls celebrate their femininity… Ladies, it’s time for some insta-fashion!

Every morning I wake up and have a far too long look at my closet, figuring out what to wear Probably something every woman recognizes, but my outfit starts with selecting my lingerie. Deciding whether I go push up, balcony or a corset is the first question that needs to be answered, and the rest of the outfit will follow.

I feel personal style says it all, and maybe not everyone agrees with mine, but fashion is a way to express who I am. It gives me a private stage to where I can showcase my unique self.

Take a look at these Instagram pictures on which other women show off their sense of style and identity combining it with my designs, and get insta-inspired!

From the Erasmus Bridge and the Mercedes-Benz Museum to Qatar’s metro network; Ben van Berkel’s iconic landmarks bring people together in rapturous beauty, again and again. I talked with the Dutch architect and educator about sensuality, ‘healthy’ buildings and the remarkable parallels between our designs.

More than a feeling

Don’t ignore your emotions; they are much more powerful than you can imagine. By linking the magical world of emotions with hard science, Dutch scientist Pierre Capel, professor emeritus in experimental immunology, shows us the consequences of our feelings and the power of our minds. The message: we can do much more than we think. “Meditate. It’s the single best thing you can do for your health.”

The fact that I feel bikini-confident all year round is, of course, a nice bonus. But for me, the biggest payoff of following the keto diet is the way it optimizes my health and gives me tons of energy.

Super (skin) food

‘If you can’t eat it, why put it on your skin?’. I pretty much live by this beauty adage. After all, with your skin being one of your body’s largest organs, anything – and I mean anything! – you put onto your skin will end up in your bloodstream.
