Every season I try to take the time and gather inspiration on how to dress during the following months. And every Spring/Summer, my inspiration board looks extremely similar: lots of denim, loose white shirts, sneakers, an occasional hat, a neutral maxi dress and oversized striped shirts. Classic and timeless, but actually it’s my safe option. Whenever…

Now that you’ve seen our apartment when it was still empty and pure, I of course had to show you how it looks right now, STUFFED with vintage furniture, Furby’s and succulents. My friend Patricia from deco and design blog No Glitter No Glory dropped by as the very first person to photograph our space and I’m thrilled…

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…

I’m such a cliché when it comes to Saturdays. I love sleeping late, heading for brunch with friends and browsing through a flea market! On one of the November bank holidays the boyfriend and I did some strolling through town and ended up at a real cool flea market in Antwerp. Since we’re both still busy…

I used to be an avid fashion blog follower, but since I started blogging professionally myself I sort of forgot about blog reading. And to be honest, there’s not much out there that still triggers my mind really. For me a blog should be inspiring and personal, whether it be the layout, the text or…

Lots of things have changed since my friend and I moved into our Antwerp apartment back in May! If you’re following me on Instagram (or ore specifically my stories) you’ve probably seen a few parts of my apartment passing by. We’ve created a super cozy living room with lots of vintage and boho elements, have…

Temperatures are dropping and I couldn’t be happier! I know I’m repeating myself year after year (enter Autumn or layering in the search box on the left for proof) but I just absolutely LOVE dressing up for chillier weather. I’m the faux fur/military boot/layering kind of tomboy girl, so Autumn is my favourite season to…

Since I spent my entire Summer budgets on festivals, I didn’t get the chance to treat myself on a decent sun getaway this year. Of course I did visit Seville with my mum back in May, but more time was spent visiting churches and palaces than lying in a horizontal position sipping from a cocktail. Call…

Slowly but surely my new apartment is coming together! A little plant here, a pretty bedside table there and a few instant snapshots on the walls… When I moved into this apartment back in May, I subscribed to a few interior webshops to get daily updates on the best sales because I quickly found my main furniture…

With both an incredible taste in fashion and interior decoration, the Swedish Dahlberg sisters are a massive girl crush of mine. If you haven’t heard of them yet, Josefin works and lives in Stockholm, while elder sister Viktoria is taking over New York. Both ladies have an impeccable taste in fashion and shift between a…

During my extensive Pinterest sessions I always bump into the same girl that keeps surprising me. Her eclectic outfits, brightening smile and outstanding photography skills never cease to impress me, and I bet you’ll be inspired too! You’ve probably heard about her blog before, but I’m a huge fan of the gorgeous Sara Escudero from the…

Thank God it’s Friday! Last week I’ve been pretty sick and now that I’m recovering, I’m trying to take things easy. So the outfits that I’m currently craving for are easy and comfortable too! Think ripped denim, my old Converses and oversized knits, which means that I’ve transformed my usual weekend uniform into my current workwear. Say hi…

First of all: YEEHAA, I finished my last exam earlier this week! Assuming that I totally passed, I will finally graduate next month and I can add my Bachelor of Languages and Linguistics (Dutch/English) to my curriculum vitae. Now that exams are over, I can focus on blogging and being creative again, which I have missed so…

Last season I introduced a new seasonal topic here on the blog that helps me to stay focussed on my wardrobe and on how I’d like my style to evolve. Last year I gathered my AW14 and SS15 style goals as a guideline for shopping, and although it might seem a bit late, I wanted to…

On my wishlist since forever: a pair of overknees! I once had a pair like this, but the leather became pretty saggy after a few weeks so that soon they were loose under-the-knee boots. Not cool. Finding a new pair turned out quite difficult, but after all those years I think I finally stumbled upon the perfect knee-cover-ups. These…
