About Irene
Born and raised in a small village in Holland near Rotterdam, I completed a Bachelor education in International Business Administration at RSM Erasmus University. For my Master in Marketing Management I did a Master Exchange at the Luigi Bocconi University in Milan, where I could enjoy my love for fashion in courses on the history of fashion, management of fashion & design companies and related fields. After living in this exciting fashion capital for 1,5 years I moved to amazing Barcelona. What I love most in all creative industries is the concept of storytelling. Other than that I can fly and read minds. I hope you will enjoy my articles and feel free to leave comments!

When Antonio Navas was handing out flyers on la Rambla in Barcelona 2 years ago he was approached by a New York photographer asking him if he would please come join him and his colleagues for a drink, to talk about the possibility of Antonio to go to New York and sign with a model agency there. ..
On Monday November 22 The Westin Palace Hotel in Madrid was the set for the GQ men of the year 2010 awards. An evening full of intelligent, stylish, charismatic and talented men….
It’s that time of year again! Wednesday November 11 2010 was this year’s date of underwear glory. This year’s show ‘A night of a thousand dreams’ was built up around 6 sections showing hot, cute, sexy, wild, heavenly, tough, sporty and pink outfits, wings included. And although the show will officially air at CBS on November 30 (which isn’t available for us Europeans anyway, boooo!), we can already show you the goods.
Sweet, colourful candybars and lollipops are often used as an inspiration for hair, make-up and clothes. In the Sixties, mini dresses with their square, round, or fluid movement prints already gave off a candy association, but the creatives of our time have really used their sweetest dreams to get to the following outcome.
You can always count on Vivienne Westwood to bring you something to remember. Other than her new collection, the styling of the men in this show couldn’t be missed either. The boys were turned into live versions of Barbie’s old boyfriend Ken, wigged up or tight sprayed hair and fake tan.
Though some of us are still waiting for the sun to show up for summer 2010 (okok, not me, Barcelona is doing well jeje), the menswear collections for next Spring/Summer are already out there. As soon as you show what trends are coming up next year for the season we are in now, people will immediately want to get it.
In May this year, the second Sex and the City movie is coming out. And although the first movie couldn’t quite capture the magic of the show, I’m still excited for the second movie. Why? Love for the show, the characters, the scenery, and…THE FASHION.
After the storm of fashion shows, the Council of Fashion Designers of America has now made public the list of nominees of the annual CFDA fashion awards, which will be underwritten once again by Swarovski. Some of the most prestigious awards are already known to be given to the following inspiring individuals:
There has been a trend slowly sneaking in, coming upon us like a preditor taking in his prey and developing a strategy for attack. Amazones, Tribal or Futuristic, fashion is going for the warrior look, showing fierce women that are up to whatever battle lies ahaid.
‘When I first moved to New York and I was totally broke, sometimes I would buy Vogue instead of dinner. I felt it fed me more.’ Carrie Bradshaw.
Ow yes, we are back with New York Fashion Week’s most seen models. With so many gorgeous people walking around, no wonder the city never sleeps.
