Cozy November Favorites for a Minimalist Wardrobe, Illustrated.

My Favorite Things To Wear And Use This November, So Far.

This has basically been my November uniform. It´s cold outside but these are the items that are keeping me warm and cozy. A lot of long time favorites on here because I’m still trying to be more of a minimalist. My Pizza For President tote bag is an old favorite that made it back to my regulars recently. The sweater (from & Other Stories) and socks (from my local week-market) are new and I’ve been wearing them all the time. I’m also using Weleda Skin Food every day to protect my skin from the harsh cold.

So far, I’m really enjoying autumn. I love the pretty autumn colors when I go on hikes and I enjoy cozying up inside or meeting friends for drinks. Hope you are enjoying fall as well!

February Recap, in Drawings.

Bye Bye February, An Illustrated Recap.

In February I spend more time indoors than usual. The weather was bad and there´s only so much hiking in the rain (and storm) that I can enjoy. So, this meant a lot of cozy time indoors, which I also enjoyed. Netflix nights, drinks and food with friends and quite a lot of cooking and baking, including pizza from scratch for the first time.😋🍕🍷⁠ Now, let spring begin please!🤞

January Recap, in Drawings.

Bye Bye January, An Illustrated Recap.

On the last day of January, it´s time to look back. My plan for this year is to end every month with an illustrated recap. (So far, so good😉)

January was very wet and cold. I loved the snowy days, I didn’t love getting the flu. I still went hiking every week but also spend more time inside. These were some of my favorite and/or most used things. As you can see most of them are related to staying warm & cozy.

Cute & Cozy Winter Mood, Illustrated.

Hello! I hope you’re having a good year so far. Here in The Netherlands it’s very cold with lots of snow at the moment, which I love very much. I love cosying up under my wool blanket, light candles, have a glass of red wine and enjoy the winter evenings with a good book or something nice to stream. This drawing sums up the cozy winter vibe I love.

This year, I plan to make more time for new illustrations, but I’m just recovering from the flu so already I’m behind on my schedule. But I will try to add more new stuff and post more regularly on here as well!

Autumn Mood

It’s starting to feel like autumn. I always love dressing for a new season but I do hope for some more summery days! (And I’m trying really hard not to get sick.)⁠

Valley of the Dolls

Valley cover Neely - Cindy Mangomini

Today 50 years ago, Valley of the Dolls first came out. It became a best-seller and a classic almost instantly. To celebrate this 50th anniversary I was one of the artists asked by Sparknotes to design new cover art for the book.

I designed 1 cover for each of the main characters: Neely, Jennifer and Anne. To see all the designs just click here.
