    Sage Green Jumpsuit

    Sage Green Jumpsuit

    Here I am, once again, almost tore myself to pieces because of a painful ear infection that decided to tag along with me the past week. I took a week offline to basically lie on the bed, one hand covering my ear, yelling at my boyfriend to repeat himself louder because I couldn’t understand a single thing he said. It’s also the reason why I’ve been away from my blog last week. The infection seems to have eased away today, so fingers crossed I’ll be…

    August Favorite Dress

    August Favorite Dress

    Sunflowers, earlier sunsets and Starbucks who has officially declared #PSL season opened can only mean one thing: the end of Summer is near. While I’m still not ready for cinnamon spice and everything nice (ha!) that Fall has to offer, I have started wearing darker colors more past two weeks. Who would’ve thought that I would wear anything else this Summer than my beloved white dresses, huh? Every year around mid august I start to feel a little tired of my …

    AD | My Photos For Pure Leaf Iced Tea

    A few months ago the PR team behind Pure Leaf reached out to me. They asked me if I was interested in trying out the 3 new iced tea flavors and maybe create some Instagram content around them. If you know me at all, you know I’ll always choose coffee over tea. Sadly, hot coffee and hot summers don’t match quite as well as cold tea and hot summers, so when the temperatures were nearing 40°C (100 F) I was more than …

    The Perfect Summer Dress 2019

    The Perfect Summer Dress 2019

    It seems as if every blogger has moved on to Fall already and I’m still here dabbling with Summer dresses. I just don’t see the point in wearing Fall clothes while it’s still 25°C and bright sunshine outside? There will be plenty of cool days ahead, so my plaid flannels and new Barbour Beadnell jacket will undoubtedly get their time to shine later on. I found this dress at Urban Outfitters (in June I think) and in retrospect …

    A Mini Guide to Paris

    A Mini Guide to Paris

    Hi there, welcome back! I hope you guys are having a lovely week so far. I missed posting yesterday because it was a holiday (Mothersday) here in Belgium and I got so caught up in house work that I completely forgot to finish this blog post. But, here we are. Better late than never, am I right? Well, this post *really* is a latecomer. I’m throwing it way back here, back to a time where I was closer in age to 20 than 30, my&…

    Orchard Posing

    Orchard Posing

    I’m sitting behind my desk, with my comfiest PJs on and rain is pouring down aggressively, clattering against the window on my right. What a good night for blogging, don’t you think? My blog hasn’t received much of my attention the past three years. I missed sharing a lot of things “in the moment” and have about 30 drafts for posts I planned on writing. Yesterday I allocated my free computer time to create a list of all …

    My Favorite J.Crew Pieces for Fall

    My Favorite J.Crew Pieces for Fall

    When the July sales end and august rolls around, my mind automatically switches to Fall. I start to miss cinnamon and mulled wine, stepping on crunchy leaves and wearing blazers. The July sales are also a time where I start prepping my Fall wardrobe. There are so many good deals to be done on coats and booties in July, that it’d be crazy not to start planning ahead. While browsing the sales I also take a sneaky peek at the new in sections. …

    Plissé All The Way

    Plissé All The Way

    Confession: I made these photos last year. To say that I am behind on posting is an understatement, haha. Other confession: I repeat my outfits and I’m still wearing this exact outfit in 2019. In fact, I’m wearing it more this year than I did last year. This look is just such a winner for me. It feels modest, timeless and little bit playful thanks to the micro floral print on the skirt. I love it! I found the plissé skirt …

    About Internet Prehistory

    About Internet Prehistory

    Grab a cup of coffee, I have a feeling this is going to be a long one. You might have noticed, but I haven’t been feeling “it”. Blogging, Instagram, the whole online presence thing. It started last year, around the turn of the year and shortly after it led to me disappearing of the internet for a good 2,5 months. I didn’t publish any blog posts, I didn’t post on Instagram, … . I even deleted Instagram and Twitter …

    Outfit Repeating Is Not A Crime

    Outfit Repeating Is Not A Crime

    When I first started style blogging I quickly learned a few new-to-me fashion rules. No white after Labour Day? I had never heard that one before! Redheads can’t wear red? For sure we can! And probably the most bizarre of all: you can’t wear the same outfit twice. WHAT!? I’ve read blog posts and fashion articles calling outfit repeating “daunting”, “lazy dressing” and “a fashion faux-pas”. Also according to those articles, women are &…

    A Black Fedora

    blouse: Zara • jeans: Madewell (10″ High Rise) • ballet flats: Clarks • bag: Massimo Dutti • Fedora: Brixton (model: Wesley) Spring has sprung and we are well on our way to Summer by now. Well, I don’t think Mother Nature has looked at the calendar recently since it’s freezing cold and continuously raining out here! Luckily we got to enjoy some beautiful days in March and early April. I managed to shoot my favorite Spring looks while out and about …
