5 things to do in Merida
Oh, Merida. It took us a moment to get used to this city, but in the end we absolutely LOVED it. Merida is the biggest and probably most colourful city in Yucatan, Mexico, and although everything seems super close by on the map, most places are quite a far walk. And as soon as you walk…

Yellow? Yes!
With all of the traveling going on in February, my wallet & I weren’t too interested in checking out the new SS17 collections. So I was pretty surprised when I opened the Zara webshop yesterday! A Coldplay song coming to live, and I absolutely loved it. Of course I do have some bad memories to wearing yellow when I…

That Belgian weather though
I just CANNOT get used to this cold, rainy and grey weather here in Belgium. Those two weeks in Mexico have completely disordered my Dressing Up For Belgian Weather system, causing me to walk out with either a light Spring jacket that’s way too cold or a huge faux fur for which it’s definitely a…

In which I super elegantly try to consume a yakitori stick. Enjoy!

Our stay in Cancun
For our first night in Mexico, we opted for something we’d normally never do: a luxurious resort. But we figured that after a 15 hour journey, it would be extremely relieving to have someone pick us up at the airport and drive us to a place where we wouldn’t have to think about anything. If…

Lust for loafers

5 things to do in Tulum
Wow, you really seemed to like my first Mexico post! I guess that lurking at sun-drenched holiday pics is a better way of spending your time than looking outside at the rain, right? Now that you know a little bit more about the organization of our voyage, I’d like to take a deeper look on our daily…

A simple beach look
That horrible cold and rain outside makes me pretty nostalgic to my warm, bare feet beach walks in Mexico… Here’s probably one of my easiest holiday looks ever, but keeping things simple is key when you’re relaxing, right? I wore this oversized shirt to a day trip to CelestĂşn, a small fishing village next to…

Our Mexico trip, summarized
Where do I start? The crystal clear sea water, the fish tacos on the street or the Maya ruins? The wild flamingos maybe? Or the bright-coloured houses with mural paintings? How about the cave cenotes and the fishing trips? The golf cart taxis? Maybe the beach bars with white swings or the dolphins we spotted from…

A take on minimalism with hush SS17
Now that I’m back from my trip to Mexico, there are a few projects that I can finally start revealing to you! The first and probably most exciting one, is a style personality campaign with UK brand hush, that I’ve been working with for years now. The brand has launched this campaign as a celebration of…

As an avid Disneyland Paris fan (any theme park actually, but this is of course the ultimate one), I was thrilled to receive an invitation to discover the park’s latest theme back in January! Until March 26 you can act like a real Jedi in the Disney Studios® Park, because #SeasonOfTheForce is on full… you guessed it right…

2014 throwback / Paris
I got back from Mexico only this very morning, but since I didn’t get any sleep on the plane, I decided to extend my office break a little bit. That kind of means means: nothing Mexico-related to share yet! YET. However, I can always look back, like I did here and here in the past two weeks.…

Glitter boots! Yay!
As a huge sales lover, January and July are usually big months for me. I really enjoy browsing through the racks and questing for that one, lower-priced treasure. During the previous sales period I had to save up for Mexico though, so I tried to avoid the shopping streets for over a month. Which proved quite difficult. Obviously I…

2015 throwback / the forgotten jumpsuit
The less fun part of digging in your blog archives? Discovering stuff you forgot about, discovering you have apparently lost that stuff and discovering that you didn’t even know you lost it… Which is all pretty sad. I remember finding this cool black jumpsuit at a Ba&sh outlet in 2015 for a really great price and…

A peek into our apartment / before
You’ve seen bits of my Antwerp apartment on Instagram (#maisonpielaun) and on the blog before, but I’ve never done an actual home tour! The reason being that we were still busy decorating and updating the whole place. Projects like a home never seem to really finish, as it’s an ongoing thing that changes seasonally or even…

#Hanging at Coco Tulum
Or the ultimate Pinterest-worthy hipster spot at Tulum playa. We spent an afternoon lounging in Coco‘s swings, sipping from delicious cocktails and fighting the huge waves of the Caribbean ocean. This place is a real recommendation! I’ll share more hotspots with you once I’m back home from this lovely trip 🙂 In the meantime, follow my…
