In summer, there are two things we love: Ray-ban (wayfarer, pilot and the new Rare (!)) and Valtifest (one of the best festivals in Holland during the summer). This year the two come together for a spectacular music battle. Are you great with a trombone? Or is your voice better…

Please forgive us by posting a little less items on our blog this week. We are working on the backside of our website to professionalize thedigitalistas.com If we are off the air or you see some strange bugs, don’t be scared and again, please forgive us. XOXO The Digitalistas
Dutch designer Antoine Peters comes up with something very special on the night before Amsterdam International Fashion Week starts. He will not show his new collection on a classic Runway. No, you can spot his new items in the music video of his first pop song!
When Converse invited me for a travelling event called You’re Here, I had no idea what to expect. ‘It is something with all kinds of creative acts and celebrating the spirit of self expression’, they said. Well, and because we love creative people, Digitalista M. took the bus to Antwerp and party AND painted all night long with some cool, relaxed, and above al creative people!
After her own show during New York Fashion Week last year, Barbie took the plane and came to Holland for a new show with some of her Dutch designer friends. And because Barbie is our friend too (which girl didn’t’ play with her for hours and hours when she was little), we are still fascinated by her amazing wardrobe.
If Aggy starts up a blog, how would it look like? Cool, is the only correct answer. And so is Naag, the new online home of top model Agyness Deyn and best friend Fiona Byrne. Fashionfans had to wait for the blog a little while, but now the website is finally a live!…
There are not that much models blogging. With the exception of Coco Rocha. And that’s a pity, because they have interesting lives. They work with designers and photographers, they travel a lot, meet fascinating people. It’s probably more exciting to read about their adventures than to read that my neighboor has boiled an egg…So thank God for the boys! At least they take the time to give us a peek in their model lives.
Who did? Lady Gaga did. And what did she do? She’s obviously following good ol’ Madge’s footsteps in matters of controversy. Her new video directed by Steven Klein shows a lot of things Madonna used in her video’s before: SM, simulating orgies, referring to religion, wearing pointy bra’s, dancing half naked, steamy scenes with muscular guys, these guys also wear high heels…
My first memories of EASTPAK, brings me back to high school. Everybody had an EASTPAK! Not as spectacular looking as they do now, but oké (well in fact, my friend had a pink one…Yes, in our village, a pink bag was very rare). We pimped our bags, by putting personal notes on it. Think signatures of friends, kisses from the boy you had an eye on, etc. Nowadays, the EASTPAK collection is so diverse, that you don’t have to spice it up with a big, black pen anymore. No, young, talented designers clear the job for you! It’s nice to see, that a brand with just one main-product, stays up-and-running for years and years. I know for sure, that if I go back to my old high school, the kids will still carry an EASTPAK. If not? Tip: just visit the new Amsterdam based EASTPAK Icon store on Hartenstraat 23. For Cool Kids Only!
We’ve got ourselves some press-coverage again. Not something huge, but funny to see that we got quoted this time instead of quoting someone else.
