Orange is the must have of the season in The Netherlands. We are not just talking dresses. Orange is a neutral in our streets. This is what our quiet village looks like these days:



This is considered modestly decorated, in the cities the streets look like this:

A few weeks ago I discussed Dutch women's World Cup fashion, but let's not forget the guys. This tasteful 'cheering suit', believe it or not, was completely sold out by pre-order. Sorry not sorry, boys!



Boys and their toys: stylish accessories for cars.


And we all eat orange pastry. By the bucket.


It's matchday and since it's a well known fact that Team Holland has 16.8 million coaches you understand I have important meetings coming up. Must discuss tonight's line up with family and friends, tough decisions to make! 



The Furry Assistant, ready to beg for orange cookies.
Hup, Holland, hup!

Edit: 
Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible. 
Team Holland lost the semi finals by penalty shoot outs.
