Modefabriek // Gram


Gram is all about making sophisticated sneakers. Gram creates shoes that fill the gap between sneakers and traditional shoes. Their roots lie in the Scandinavian design aesthetic; design with clean lines and attention to details. Each model being unique in its own simplicity.




The brand is centered around the concept of weight, with each shoe being named after its weight in grams.

(My personal favorite design)


Good times and bad – at gram they love shoes. in particular shoes that you can wear at the office as well as on a night out.

PIERCINGS // Septum do or don't?



I would like to get my septum pierced for a long time, but I have a few issues that I need resolved first.


I'm mostly concerned about two things: the pain and the healing.

I know it's going to hurt, but just *how* bad? I've gotten piercings and tattooed before, but this just seems so much more intense. Does it make a noise? I'm imagining a terrible crunching sound. And does it bleed a lot? Can I even handle the pain and the blood? I just want to be prepared.

At the other hand I don't even know if it looks good on me so  I really want as many opinions as I can get.

Mixing textures


In today’s time with digital photography becoming so accessible to just about anyone, it is nice to see a creative twist on fashion photography. Chilean artist Jose Romussi embroiders flowers and geometric doodles over pages of fashion editorials.

After using your favorite pair of leather boots to the max, don’t think you have to throw them away! The secret solution to cleaning off dried salt stains is: 1 cup cold water, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, small glass and spoon for mixing and a small cotton towel. Mix the two components for a couple of minutes and gently scrub off any residue from your leather! Let it air dry and voila, like new.
