The past rainy week has been a lovely forebode of Autumn: staying inside with my laptop, taking care of my darling who’s been sick for a few days, drinking lots of green tea, continuing our favourite Netflix series and hiding away in new, cozy knits. This pink one by La Redoute is a particular favourite…

Romance in the city
Me, in a floral tea dress? It does happen from time to time! Although I usually stick to more tomboyish looks, I do have a soft spot for romantic pieces. I can’t seem to pass by a floral skirt or frilled dress in a store without having a quick feel. Luckily it’s fairly easy to combine these…
Read MoreMy very first week vlog!
After some utterly clumsy video trials last year, I joined forces with new video platform CONTOUR to shoot more professional and regular videos for you guys. We’ve shot some How To Style videos, my best tips for you to conquer the sales period, and the very first episode of Inside Out(fit), in which I check out the closet…
Read MoreSunday at the seaside
Since sun seems to be pretty precious these days, Lisa and I dropped by Justine’s place at the Belgian coast to soak up some vitamin D. We had the perfect weekend day starting with a homemade breakfast in the garden, a little bike tour afterwards and a quick shopping trip to Zara at noon. In the afternoon we…
Read MoreA dreamy holiday look from Croatia
When on holidays, I prefer breezy things, cotton things and nude-coloured things. Pieces that don’t require a lot of accessorizing (or extra work in general) and that make you feel chic and relaxed instantly. This beautiful flowy dress is a perfect example! The subtle stripes, broderie details and off shoulder shape add up to a laid-back…
Read MoreInterior shop crush: Living-In
The interior hunt for our new house has now officially begun — although we literally have NO place to stock all of our purchases. We’ve started to slowly look for and stock up on the bigger pieces such as a table, chairs or a bed. Since we’re moving in in January, it’s obviously to soon to…
Read More3 rainproof festival looks!
Yay weekend! Are you planning on attending more festivals in August? I’ve got a few destinations to go: Lokerse Feesten, We Can Dance, Pukkelpop… Looking forward to more festival goodness! But you know Belgium: rain’s never far away! That’s why I created 3 rainproof festival looks at CONTOUR to help you out when it gets cloudy during…
Read MoreThe return of the slip dress
And by that I mean: the return of the slip dress from your childhood! Slip dresses remind me of those carefree days during which playing with dolls, building camps in the woods and playing dress up with your siblings was priority. And who would have thought that you could ever wear those girly swing dresses again…
Read More#Thursday outfit
Wearing a Johny B Good shirt & Roxane R. faux fur slippers by The Corner and an old pair of leopard trousers by Zara. Happy Thursday!
Read MoreThriftshop finds!
Although it’s still a long wait until the boyfriend and I will finally be moving into our house (January!), we can’t help but look around for furniture and interior accessories… One of our favourite current activities is thrift shopping, and we’re damn good at it 🙂 The bad part is that of course we’re having…
Read MoreMeeting day
Wow, is it just me or do all of my looks seem so office-proof lately? Maybe I’m just trying to make the switch between vacay mode and work mode more bearable, by using my outfits to convince myself that going back to work isn’t THAT bad. I’m totally exaggerating here you guys, because I absolutely…
Read MoreSunday PJ uniform
Yesterday I shared another Antwerp brunch hotspot, and this is the outfit I wore when indulging in all of that avocado toast goodness. This look basically reflects my entire weekend mood: sleepy with a touch of sass. By adding my new fluffy slides and a simple white tee to those office-style trousers, they suddenly get…
Read MoreAntwerp brunch tip: Maurice
Saturday means brunching day! Or in other words: weekend means stuffing your face with delicious food you didn’t have to prepare yourself. The boyfriend and I stopped by at Maurice, an eclectic coffee and brunch bar in Berchem. Our recommendation? The poached egg avocado toast and the jasmine ice tea! Enjoy your weekend! Maurice Coffee…
Read MoreGot them!
O.M.G. They’re so fluffy I’m gonna die. After my long fight in trying to resist these stunning faux fur slides (remember?), I obviously caved in. They arrived yesterday and they are PERFECTION. Not only are they utterly $wag, they’re also just super comfortable — I promise! If you’re loving them too, they’re currently on sale…
Read MoreBack to work
Oh my, that last-minute mini holiday was exactly what I needed! The boyfriend and I spontaneously (and secretly!) drove over to his family staying in Croatia to surprise them with a visit. And what a surprise it was! We stayed over for 5 days in the sun before inevitably having to return to work… and…
Read MoreSurviving Summer at the office: a guide!
Hi boss ladies! Ready for another round of heat at the end of this week? For those who are stuck at the office, I created 3 looks to survive warm temperatures whilst still looking classy AF. (Sorry, had to use AF at least once in a blogpost, pretending I won’t turn 26 in a month)…

…one thing I’ll definitely miss when moving out of this beautiful apartment!
Read MoreFavourite 2016 festival look #2
Festival season is in full swing, so here’s another throwback to one of my favourite festival looks from last Summer! I wore this to beachside festival We Can Dance, which had a fun space theme going on. My interpretation of this theme was to add a touch of metallic to a classic festival look: a slip…
Read MoreModern boho perfection
Okay sooooo, this house. If I hadn’t just bought a house, I would totally fall for this beauty based in Amsterdam. And if I had some spare dollaz, that is, because it’s for sale and it of course ain’t cheap. A girl can dream, right, and a girl can also use this as the perfect…
Read MoreSunny greetings
…from Croatia! I know I just told you guys we weren’t planning any big holidays this Summer, but since the boyfriend’s family is staying in Croatia for two weeks, we couldn’t help but drive over and show up unexpectedly! That was quite the surprise 🙂 We’re staying at a camping with (obviously) bad wifi service, but…
Read More7 days, 7 outfits
How the hell did this become a category that only pops up every once in 6 months? I mean, the more outfits, the better! Last week was a fun one, so I captured all of my looks for you. Here’s what I wore! Monday Ah yeah, Monday Shmonday. As a girl boss working on my…

And there we go: you might have seen my chop on Instagram already but for the ones not following me there or not having an account (hi mom), I’m happy to show you my new hair today! I just took my 2013 photos to my hairdresser and she gave me the exact same look as…
Read MoreInside Out(fit): the 1st episode!
Welcome to INSIDE OUT(FIT), my brand new YouTube show at Contour in which I sneak into my fave stylish people’s wardrobe! The first victim is Ruth Van Soom: content creator, queen of everything effortless and great buddy of mine. Enjoy the first episode, and let me know whose closet I need to invade next time!

I’m writing to you from my couch, where I have unfortunately spent the past few days. Unfortunately not because I hate chilling on the couch and watching Netflix, but because I’m stuck with a severe cold. I know it’s never the time to get sick, but now is DEFINITELY NOT the time! Let’s hope I’ll…
Read MoreExploring foreign festivals (in floral)
Although I claim to be a true festival lover, I have to admit (embarrassingly) that I haven’t done too many different festivals… I just always attend the same ones! Which is a shame! So this year I decided to leave the nation and explore a new festival to me: Down The Rabbit Hole in The…
