Inspired by the many amazing blogs out there online, I wanted to share my passions and (scientific) journey with other people.  So, after planning this for a long time, I finally started a blog of my own, with this being my very first post.

This blog is intended to show young women they can be ‘girly’ or ‘feminine’ in a scientific environment. I am a biomedical PhD student with a passion for fashion and makeup myself. However I do realize, as I am only 24 years old, I have to see and learn still a lot from the many aspects of science, fashion and makeup, let alone the world itself.

As the name of my blog suggests, I plan to post about fashion-related as well as scientific subjects. I want to approach both these sides as I know what it feels like to be considered  at the same time ‘that blonde girl with makeup and high heels in the lab’ as well as ‘the geeky one’ among friends and family. With this blog I want to share my passions and hope to maybe even inspire other girls to stay true to themselves.
