Decorating a new home, rehearsing for a new play and preparing her wedding. Carolien Spoor’s life is in sixth gear. Take a look.

1. Yesterday was the festive opening of the Jo Malone store, one of the best fragrance brands in the world. After having smelled almost all the fragrances in the testing area together with Marly, we had to dip our noses into some coffee beans. Final judgment: Lime&Basil’s our favourite
2. After this rainy week, I’m seriously contemplating relocating to a sunny place! Luckily, this Piogg Raincoat made me rain proof. Though now I’m still looking for something to protect my trousers from the rain… Anyone tips on stylish ones??
3. My latest fashion find of the week: this earring of the Dutch brand Vander Borne. After the inspiring earring story from May-Britt at RTL Boulevard yesterday, I’m also thinking about having an extra hole pierced. @May: want to do it together??
4. The STIJL Maastricht team travelled to Amsterdam last week for the new photo shoot of the webshop. Hôtel Droog was the backdrop of the shoot, which was kind of dangerous for me because all those designer things directly went into my imaginary shopping bag for my new home.
5. I know, I’m very late with this, but I’ve become hooked to Pinterest. For every part of my new home I’ve made mood boards. The kitchen with a gorgeous concrete counter top from Loods 5 was immediately pinned.
