Camping, not Glamping!

Camping Schiermonnikoog - Cindy Mangomini

I just returned from a short but lovely camping trip to the beautiful Dutch island Schiermonnikoog. Since we had to carry our own luggage the whole journey it was definitely more of a camping than glamping experience, and this is basically what I wore the whole trip.

Wearing: fanny pack,  The Sting – mixed bracelets, Ala and Anna+Nina – sunglasses, Sacha – bikinitop, H&M – flip flops, bought on holiday in Greece – shorts, vintage Levi’s – bikini bottom, Newyorker – Make up bag, Kruidvat – sleeping bag, Hema – top, Mango.

My Favourite Heatwave Favourites.

Getting hot in here- Cindy Mangomini

What I Wore To Stay Cool During The Heatwave, In Drawings.

During the recent heatwave I had only 1 thing on my mind: how to stay (somewhat) cool! The workspace in my apartment got so hot that my bikini became my new work-uniform (one of the advantages of working from home!)

This is a drawing of my personal favorite things that are keeping me cool during the hot weather. If you like this you can follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for regular updates or shop my illustrated papergoods on Etsy.

Wearing: everything is this illustration is H&M, except for: “lucky” bracelet, Anna+Nina – vintage denim skirt – canvas tote from local bookstore – sunglasses, Sacha.
