October Favorites

Happy sugar-rushed Friday, friends! Hopefully you aren’t too deep in a Halloween candy coma after yesterday’s festivities. We didn’t really do anything for Halloween this year. We don’t have kids and I suppose Belgians are also a bit reserved about this ‘new’ type of holidays. It isn’t really a thing where we live! We got one group of cute little trick-or-treaters and we didn’t have any candy in the house, so that was a shameful moment. Today I wanted to share some of my favorite things …

AD | Pure Leaf Iced Tea

AD | 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 happy to have these around. One evening my boyfriend and I each took a bottle …

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. I love seeing what different stores are stocking for the new season as it helps …

If you follow me along my travels or if you take a close look at my Instagram page, you will have noticed my love for flowers already. I try to have fresh flowers around the house all the time and they often make an appearance in my blog photos too. I recently received a bouquet in a very unlikely way and I wanted to share more about that with you today! For this blog post I also had some fun with my new DSLR camera and Lightroom, so any feedback on the photos is welcome! I’m still learning&…

Instagram: The 7 Things I Hate About You

Instagram: The 7 Things I Hate About You

Who remembers that Miley song, huh? Loooooong time ago. A lot has happened in the digital world since Seven Things came out in the year 2008. To me, the most influential change must have been the rise of popular social media. While platforms such as Blogger, Typepad, Tumblr and MySpace could be seen as social media avant la lettre, I believe it’s the rise of popular social media platforms that has really changed the course of digital content creation. It’s fair to say that by 2010 the blogging world was somewhat swallowed up and not much spectacular was …
