Despite the fact that I have grown up in a digital world, there is things that only work for me on paper. One of them is writing down notes, I always (read: ALWAYS) carry around a notebook or two. I currently work with a Moleskine calender one to write down and plan ideas for the blog and one from Are You Swedish for random thoughts and to use during meetings.

Also, Vogue Collections! As one of my readers described, it is the paper version of Style.com. Sure comes in handy as a reference when writing about future shows and also to make my wishlist for fall/winter ofcourse. Even though I can not afford most of what is in there.

For weeks now, it’s the only thing the Dutch fashion crowd has been talking about: Dutch Vogue. What will the cover look like? Which model(s) are going to be on it? Is our country even ready for a magazine like this?

This afternoon, Karin Swerink (editor in chief) and her team presented the very first issue of Dutch Vogue at a press lunch in George W.P.A. and it is fab. Very fab! Gorgeous Romee Strijd, Ymre Stiekema and Josefien Rodermans – lensed by Marc de Groot – are on the cover, wearing Acne, Valentino and Chanel. I have to be honest, when I saw the cover circulating on the internet this morning, I thought the cover was a bit too young and girly (and pink!) but after seeing it in real life and holding it for a little while, it just seems to be perfect.

At the moment I am dealing with an extreme and severe cough, but I dragged myself out of bed for the press lunch and went straight back after. The timing of my cough is great though, I have more than enough time to flip through the pages and actually read this April issue.
