  • It really is fair traded.

    It really is fair traded.

    Obviously I couldn’t take my eyes of these silver earrings with a blue gemstone. It is minimalist, feminine and gives a striking touch to all my outfits. Not to mention, it was uniquely made by Mr. artisan from Mexico who is earning his wages within the ethical standards.

    Since I started volunteering at the fair-trade shop Wereldwinkel  I became more aware of these goods and the story behind them. I attended my first employee-meeting yesterday where I heard a presentation by a fair-trade import company. It made me proud for contributing to better living for the makers of such wonderful artefacts. It really is fair traded.

     

  • Paradiso Amsterdam tuned in Brandon Flowers

    Paradiso Amsterdam tuned in Brandon Flowers

    First of June has finally arrived in Paradiso Amsterdam, Brandon Flowers played tonight The Desired Effect.

     The album is sophisticatedly produced with a mixture of beats which to me sounds like a throwback pop-rock. The show is insanely great with his usual   jump up the speakers, hands gesture and moves.

    In between, I could sing along my favorites from “Flamingo” album and The Killers.
