Real life Cluedo with a sexy twist
Forget about stressful family gatherings and long, boring dinners; let me show you how to survive the (Christmas-) holidays in sexy style!
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a typical family person. I love spending hours wrapping gifts and cooking the most elaborate meals for my loved ones. But even I sometimes need a break from all that. I just feel like shaking things up a bit! So this year, during the holiday season, I’m organizing my own Murder mystery night with a twist: real life Cluedo. It’s retro, it’s fun, and, – if you do it right – very sexy!
Cluedo is a board game, hugely popular during the seventies, where players try to figure out the three main facts of a murder: the location of the murder, the murder weapon and the murderer himself. Or herself, of course!
I’ve been planning a real life version of it, using my own house as the location, and a selection of sexy singles as the players. I’m so excited!
There are several sites where you can find the exact rules, but basically, seven adults play seven characters: Miss Scarlet, Col. Mustard, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Prof. Plum, Mrs. Whyte and Wadsworth the butler. Any extra people can be game masters, in the roles of butlers or -oh la la! – French maids.
You can invite 6 friends to play these parts, but I decided to shake things up by inviting only people – singles! – I’ve never met before in real life. For example: people I’ve had a click with on Facebook, or a friend of a friend who came highly recommended.
To make things even more exciting, I designed swanky invitations, in which I insisted everybody come dressed in a sexy stylish interpretation of their part. Now all I need to do is create lots of dark cozy corners in my house, and I’m ready for a night of ‘killer’ romance… Happy, sexy holidays!

Building bridges
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.”

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.
