Who do you swap wardrobes with à la minute?
Chiara Ferragni. Seriously, thanks to Chiara my wishlist is endless. How many cool Gucci belts, suits, Chanel bags, colorful fun fur jackets, sneakers, and designer boots (did I mention bags?) can one person have? Unbelievable.
What do you eat when calories are not a factor?
Okay, to be very honest: I don't really count calories. But as a calorie-eating connoisseur, I'm more than happy to share my favorites with you (at least you won't be consuming useless calories). I'm team sweet: pastries, candies, and chocolate are always a hit. But especially warm apple pie from De Taarten Kamer. I've honestly never eaten anything so delicious. Theo hasn't either. Something about five pieces in one afternoon.
Your very first designer piece?
My very first real big buy was my Drew bag from Chloé. It was love at first sight. Well, first sight... I had seen and admired it about three hundred times before, and eventually, I finally bought it at Bijenkorf.
If your bag could talk, what would she tell us?
That I chatter her ears off and gave her a nickname.
What must remain fashion forever?
The flared jeans and the skinny. Oh, and the boyfriend. And the bomber, but also the faux fur coat, the biker jacket, and the velvet blazer. Then there's the Flap bag from Chanel, the GG Marmont bag from Gucci, and the Monogram bag from Saint Laurent. And sneakers: Nike Air Max, Adidas Superstars, tulle skirts, but also pleated skirts and bell skirts. Well, you are a shopping editor or not. I love #lovemyjob so.
What is the fashion rule you live by?
Forget the rules. If you like it, wear it.
