Sexual on your own terms
It is time to reclaim lace and rebrand it as an empowering fabric. It is complex, layered and incredibly mutable. Yes, lace is a lot like a woman herself.
By embracing her complex nature, I contrasted lace’s intricacy with my clear flattering signature, inspiring women to seduce themselves first. The result is startling; a sexual object no longer, the woman wearing my lace lingerie was a self-contained being, only sexual on her own terms.
Emphasizing the thrilling interplay of reveal and conceal that is so typical for lace. Delicate yet strong, my designs allow you to hint without showing, and show only what you want, when you want to. They give you the tools to use your femininity as your superpower.
So now, let’s celebrate 30 years of feminine feminist designs with my ultimate ode to the empowering allure of lace: my Carita collection.

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.”

Keto curious?
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.
