Hello loves! It's the end of the year and whether your staying home, visiting family or taking a trip, I hope you’re having a cozy time and enjoying the Christmas spirit!

This year we went to Amsterdam for a little weekend getaway, December in Amsterdam is such a beautiful time with all the lights, ice skating and cozy coffee places all around the city. If you bring warm enough clothes and don’t forget the umbrella, you’ll love strolling along the canals and enjoy the views of the beautiful buildings in the city. 

While in Amsterdam we brought some of our latest pieces from our winter collection. One of them is The Studded Leather Jacket, based on our already existing jacket but full of studs - a limited edition for all the rock’n’roll lovers. 

I wore it with the dark longsleeve dress, one of my favorite and most worn looks lately, and boots. Although you can wear this jacket with anything and rock it!

Another piece from our holiday capsule is this red longsleeve knit dress, it's warm and cozy, perfect dress for these Christmas days and works well both casual yet dressed up. 

It also comes as a sweater which looks great with leather pants or a skirt for these festive days!

Strolling around the gracthen in Amsterdam is a must, grab a coffee on the way and get lost on the scenic streets. The city is laid-back and offers a great balance of history, culture and modern living, making it a place for almost anyone to love. Amsterdam is quite famous for its museum, don’t miss The Van Gogh Museum and Rijksmuseum which are a must, but also check out the Moco Museum for some contemporary art.

For a more chill atmosphere De Pijp is a great neighborhood with plenty of cafes and local markets.

December is chilly so bring your coat! Our new wool coat was the perfect piece to wear over anything, even over The Leather Jacket. It’s oversized and warm, and I love it extra much because of its long length. Another winter must have is our new alpaca collection. With 87% alpaca - these sweaters, gloves and socks keep you extra warm and snuggly during the winter holidays.

Amsterdam offers a lot of coffee places, restaurants and bars. A lot of fries, waffles and pastries. One place we love and have visited many times over the years is Café van Leeuwen, open all day and a nice place for breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks. Don’t forget to try their traditional poffertjes (mini pancakes) or a buttery almond pastry. Also bitterballen which you can find in almost any pub as a snack.

Here’s a little more red, the red glitter loungewear collection from our winter holiday capsule. Our ribbed loungewear has been loved for a long time in various colors. This year we launched this red sparkly set which consists of theee pieces - the perfect Christmas gift for your loved one or yourself.

We have only visited Amsterdam during winter and definitely love the city the most during evenings when it’s dark and the lights turn on in all the big windows and the canals. The canal by Rijksmuseum is the most famous one with the lights, but anywhere around the canals is worth walking by. You can take the evening cruise for a romantic trip.

Spring and summer must be amazing in Amsterdam, biking around, renting small electric boats, going to the parks and just enjoying Amsterdam’s laid back atmosphere. We’ll have to try it next time!

Thank you Amsterdam for this beautiful little getaway, can’t wait to visit in summer!

Lots of love and happy holidays xx Jacqueline
