48 Hours in Oslo
Travel

Norway is one of those destinations that is on most people’s travel wishlist, but often gets a lot of competition from more classic Scandinavian must-sees like Iceland or Sweden. Truth is that the country has a LOT to offer, especially the beautiful capital city Oslo. For the launch of the limited Winter Coolection from Emmi CAFFÈ…

My favourite vintage piece

Since I have sold or given away most of my old vintage clothes that I showed you yesterday, it was quite hard to really pick a favourite between the remaining pieces.

Antwerp may not be AS vintage-oriented as Berlin or Amsterdam, but you can still do some nice thrifting here!

My office uniform

Although I work part-time at a fashion company, I’m often way too lazy to pick interesting things in the morning. To save time when getting out of bed I usually stick to one type of outfit that I keep repeating in different versions. Easy peasy! My current uniform exists of wool cropped Filippa K trousers,…

Personal style goals: AW15

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…

How to rock ton-sur-ton

Although I used to be a keen lover of print and colour combining back in the days, I tend to choose for more monochrome options nowadays. One of my latest obsessions is the concept of ton-sur-ton: you just dress up in 1 colour only. Not only does this trend make you seem a lot taller and…

Trying new trends vs. staying true to your own style

One thing that I really like about blogging is being able to push your own boundaries on several levels. You know I’m not very girly-girly in terms of outfits, but now and then I stumble upon a piece that just asks for a different approach. These amazing over the knee boots that I showed you earlier this week can easily look…

My new over the knee boots, and how to wear them

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…
