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. While I was browsing through some old outfit photos it suddenly hit me: my blue Levi’s shorts. A classic piece of fashion history that can…

That €15 leather skirt

As I was preparing my posts and content for this vintage week, I realized that I hadn’t been for a proper thrift hunt in months, maybe years. Time for some research! I quickly popped by Think Twice in Antwerp and almost immediately stumbled upon this pretty amazing leather skirt. A perfect fit for only €15… I…

#LadiesInLevis

Woah, I can FINALLY share this post with you guys! Do you remember that back in October I launched an Instagram competition together with Levi’s in which we asked you guys to take a fitting room selfie with a pair of the new LOT700 Levi’s denim line? The big price was a trip to Berlin for…

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…

Officially welcoming Autumn

Now that every one is tired of seeing those white beaches and palmtrees, it’s time to focus on more relevant things: Autumn. And how to dress for it. You know that Autumn is by far my favourite season of the year because I love showing off my layering skills with different materials like fur, leather,…

Deserted beach dreams

It seems like every series of photos I start editing from my trip to Saint Martin seems more surreal! These photos were shot on the dreamiest place of all: the empty beach I talked about in my last post. We came here in the late afternoon but for the prettiest light and least amount of…

Because who needs winter clothes anyway?

Ok I certainly do, because I wouldn’t want to miss my layering for a thing in the world. But right now all I’m craving for are those +30° temperatures in which even a cotton kaftan seems too hot. These photos were shot right after my first surf class ever and I can’t wait to tell you all…

Life is a beach, Saint Martin

Ever since the existence of Pinterest I’ve been drooling over white sand beaches I’d never thought I would encounter in real life. However, last week I had the chance to finally set foot on one of those dreamy beaches! Our hotel was located at Anse Marcel, a small town all the way up north of…

Flying fashionably

You could follow my plane journey to the beautiful island of Saint Martin pretty intensely via Snapchat, but I totally forgot to show you what I wore! Dressing for traveling is always a challenge: an early morning train ride, a freezing plane, a tropically hot destination… You get confronted with totally different kinds of situations and…

Sunshine after the rain

Woah, these gloomy pics seem so unreal in comparison with my current views! If you have been following me on Snapchat and Instagram, you must have noticed that I’m in a way sunnier place right now… Still, this outfit seemed like the appropriate thing to post now that October has kicked off. By now you should…

A Sunday off

Sundays are for chilling and since we’re blessed with this wonderful sunny Autumn weather, my boyfriend and I spent our day off soaking up the sun and exploring new corners in town. Last Sunday we headed to the North of Antwerp, which, despite of its modern architecture, feels a lot like Paris during this time of the year.…

Easily translate the boho summer trend to Autumn

Temperatures dropping lower doesn’t equal compromising in style; we all know that. But it also doesn’t mean compromising in trends! Why would you stop wearing a favourite trend of yours just because the timing is not “right”? Today I wanted to show you how I translate the boho trend, which is usually something strongly associated with…

The cape

My office outfits are getting better and better every week, and this one was definitely one of the highlights of the last few days! A cape seems like something difficult to style, but apart from the fact that is it hard to properly move my body in it, it is one of the easier pieces in my…

Why I’m looking forward to Autumn

Although I can really enjoy a good tanning session on the beach, a late night bonfire with friends or dancing around at music festivals, I secretly don’t mind summer coming to an end because… My favourite season is about to start! Why do I love Autumn so much? Time for this Autumn Lovers Anonymous member to…

#TheJourneyJacket

When a few months ago my friend Ruth confided the secret that she would design a jacket for Goosecraft to me, I instantly knew I was going to LOVE it. And then last week, after months and months of discussing, designing and debating, there it was! The result is a slightly longer biker jacket in a super…

Stripes, braids & something pretty practical

On the first day of Lollapalooza festival I noticed a few girls sporting two braids in their hair, which looked both really epic and convenient to me. Wearing my hair down really is a huge task for me, since I’m constantly aware of those annoying loose locks in my neck and on my clothes. The next…

LOLLAPALOOZA FESTIVAL WITH ZALANDO

A 300 second Snapchat story? I wouldn’t want to waste so many seconds of your life unless I have something REAL cool to share. No disappointments there: last weekend Zalando invited me to the very FIRST European Lollapalooza festival in its hometown Berlin! If talking festival stereotypes, I’m that friend who always listens to the festival’s Spotify playlists…

3x office wear winners

Working at an office has drastically influenced my morning dressing routine. When crawling out of bed, I usually only want to put on comfy things. Distressed boyfriend jeans? Nope, no longer possible. A short leather skirt on the other hand? Maybe not. Crop top? Yeah um, no. Although the (fashion) environment at work definitely encourages outfit…
