Hello new sneakers! Ever since I got hooked on white sneakers a few years ago, I find it difficult to try other colours and prints. In an attempt to bring some diversity to my sneaker collection, I got these beautiful Reebok ones from DefShop. By opting for soft grey, I ofcourse took a careful start. The good…

Read MoreSandy getaway
Since the boyfriend and I already celebrated our holidays back in February (Mexico, I miss u) AND we bought a house this year, we kind of need to save up this Summer. We decided not to book another expensive vacay, but opt for mini getaways and lots of staycation days instead! In my previous post you could…
Read MoreThe chop
When scrolling through my archives, I discovered that 2013 was kind of my best hair year ever — and the outfits weren’t too bad either. I had a strong but messy lob that always seemed voluminous and effortless. And that is EXACTLY what I’m missing right now! You’ve read my doubts about whether to cut…
Read MoreStaycation in Antwerp
What if your holiday is still almost 2 months away but temperatures keep rising at home? Celebrate a few days off in your own hometown of course! And my beloved Antwerp proves the perfect city to do so. There’s so many great coffee bars, fairs and swimming ponds to keep you busy on a warm…

At one of Berchem’s finest places, Walvis. Have a lovely weekend!
Read MoreA new home = a new interior!
It’s been two months since the boyfriend and I bumped into our dream – and now future! – house (read the story here), and it’s been pretty hard not to start buying couches, rugs, tableware and even laundry baskets already. The current owners are renovating their new house, so we’ll receive the keys of our new…

The left ring with tiny diamonds is by Diamanti Per Tutti, the two right ones by Pull & Bear.
Read MoreThe ultimate basics – wait what?
Although a) leopard print, b) faux fur and c) a bomber jacket might not be considered the perfect basic elements to form the core of your wardrobe, to me they definitely are of great importance in my closet. Next to loads of faux fur, I’ve got quite a remarkable bomber jacket collection as well. And as for…

Slides that are pink AND fluffy? Yes please! I just found these at River Island and am currently trying to ignore them the best I can, but I’m not sure for how I long I’ll be able to resist the temptation… Who’s loving these too?
Read More★ At the fair ★
Wearing an old Zara cashmere cardigan, my new Céline sunglasses and my beloved Noisy May skirt. (Also: this was shot right before we won a pretty ugly but fantastic dolphin-Hawaii-mariuhana-inspired figurine at the fair! Yas!)
Read MoreCheck!
I’ve had so much fun experimenting with my wardrobe lately, especially during those extremely hot June days! It’s quite a challenge to dress up cool and feel comfortable when your back is literally soaking wet. But this breezy dress by La Redoute definitely did the trick! Made of a super light cotton, it covers up most of…

Discover outfits, sing along moments and lots of slices of pizza 🙂 Yaaaaay! Oh, and this photo is from my current…

Favourite 2016 festival look #1
As a festival freak, I couldn’t be happier with this Summer’s schedule! Since the boyfriend will be playing at nearly every important Belgian festival this year, I will obviously attend nearly every important Belgian festival 🙂 I’ve just returned from 3 fantastic days at Down The Rabbit Hole, and on my future program are Rock Werchter (tomorrow!),…
Read MoreThe best playsuit ever
Just HOW adorable is this little number? My friends from Samsoe & Samsoe sent it over to me and I think it comes pretty close to what my idea of the perfect playsuit is. The shape is very loose but the material is thick enough to still make you feel comfortable, and I adore the…

Got these from the new JOY collection by Belgian brand Diamanti Per Tutti. Stunning, right?!
Read MoreFrench Summer feels
There’s nothing that screams “France” more than a straw basket and some white and blue embroidery, right? And those +30° temperatures maybe… At some points this week I really felt like I traded Antwerp for France. Staying focused behind my desk is so difficult on these warm days, so I’ve decided to change my work…
Read MoreMissing my short locks…
Just the length of my hair though, not the bangs! What do you think – should I go for a shorter chop again or stay with my long locks? NOT SURE…

Yeeeeehaa, Summer is in full swing, so here’s 1 minute and 3 looks of outfits to upgrade your Summer style over at CONTOUR! Oh, and if you’re off to a festival this weekend, you might want to pay attention too. Enjoy, and let me know what you think!
Read MoreA new straw basket ★
Although I got myself a beautiful straw bag from Zara last month, I kind of felt like I needed another one — in a different shape of course! Since none of the high street brands offered something that tickled my fancy, I turned to Etsy. Here I found Georgia’s little shop, a kind lady who immediately sent over the…
Read MoreThe Shirt dress
Anything made of oversized white cotton is more than welcome in my closet, and especially pieces that are extremely versatile. This shirt dress by Bellerose is the perfect example! I wore it in a rather dressed up way, but I can definitely imagine me bringing it to festivals with cut off denim shorts and lace up sandals…
Read MoreFestival ready
The boyfriend and I are counting down to 3 days of Down The Rabbit Hole in the Netherlands this weekend, but in the meantime here’s a streetstyle shot of us from our first festival of the year a few weeks ago! A Dutch website stopped us to photograph our outfits, which was super flattering of course…
Read MoreDressing office-proof for the heat
Not at all to complain about that heatwave, but it’s not easy to dress up for the office or meetings when all you want to wear is a bikini, right? This look served as the perfect compromise: breezy pieces made of light cotton that provide that South of France feel, but still cover up everything, mixed…
