Roger Bruning describes himself as high-end PR specialist and with Winonah de Jong in your ‘stable’, that's not so strange. With such a job, a nice bag is also part of it, you understand.
Tell me, how did you get this Mulberry?
Three years ago, I received it for my birthday from my boyfriend Rick. The package was just sitting at the door. Rick was in New York for work and I was here in Amsterdam. Rick is very good at surprises, so I wasn't surprised at all that there was a package at the door. I had secretly hoped for this bag.
But this is certainly not the only gem that lies in the closet?
It's not that bad, really. Besides this one, I have three other bags and they are just from Zara. I mainly use those when I go to the beach or when I'm not working. This Mulberry is really a business bag.
Does a designer bag open multiple doors?
In my profession as a PR specialist, your appearance is very important. I work in the higher segment, so I want to radiate that as well.
What about the contents? Are you a chaotic person or neatly organized?
As a Virgo, I am very perfectionistic and I work in a very structured way. That can actually be quite a torment for the people around me and for myself. What I need is always exactly in the same corner. I can grab everything blindly. There has to be order, otherwise I go crazy.
What do you always have with you?
My laptop, notebook, keys, wallet, my fragrance from Hèrmes, and the bronzer. Always before I leave the house, I have to powder a bit.
Is there a bag on your wishlist?
Yes, definitely, one from Bottega Veneta. It's been sitting in an online shopping cart for a while. Soon I'll close my eyes for a moment and press the ‘checkout’ button.
