IN THE CLOSET | ASTRID

Welcome to the newest topic on Anoukmeetsfashion: In the closet. Whenever I run into someone whose style I really like I'll try to set up an interview with them to give you all a look into their closets. This way you'll get to discover their favourite pieces and the stories behind how they dress.

First up is Astrid, a girl I met here in Barcelona trough my lovely roommate Chelsi. She's born in Belgium but grew up in the north of Spain (Asturias). At the age of 17 she went back to Belgium (Wolvertem) to work at the Stephex stables. She got the job throughout her ex trainer - she didn't only work with horses, she was a (very good) rider as well!- he recommended her to go there and learn some more.

At the moment Astrid is finishing her studies translation French - English - Spanish - Catalan in Barcelona and in the summer she plans on heading over to Canada or Belgium to pick up working with horses again.

I would describe Astrid's style as a tough Spanish rock chick. She has an effortless style and loves to finish off her looks with some nice lipstick. In a few days this rock chick will be a bridesmaid at a wedding soon and she had her dress custom made. (hence the red one) When she goes to work (she's helping out her mom with a children's fashion line) she prefers a 'classic style' she says, to keep everything formal.

Her motto is: 'Tough times never last, but tough people do'.
