Birkenstocks! Oh no, she didn’t? I think we’re at this fashion point in 2017 that “ugly” footwear turned pretty, and the super comfy slippers rather associated with nurses fit this trend perfectly. I’ve actually owned a pair of Birks a few years ago, but unfortunately seem to have lost them in some pile of forgotten clothes.…

One of the reasons why I love living in Antwerp is that there are so many great food and coffee options. And this week a brand new one just opened its doors! I obviously stopped by for a little test so I can share this fresh tip with you guys. The perfect recommendation for a long,…

Meanwhile back in Antwerp, I’m sharing a casual Friday look that is both comfortable and suited for the office. I got my hands on these fun denim dungarees during the last week of Zara’s sales last year and I almost forgot its existence until I unpacked my Summer clothes a little while ago. During Winter I always…

Yup, Tinsel is still my number one breakfast spot in Antwerp! This homemade porridge with blueberries, banana, pumpkin seeds, maple syrup and so much more is a favourite of mine. Omnomnom!

Woops, this is quite an old outfit that I completely forgot to share! Well, “quite old”; I wore this about a month ago when the sun treated us on a first warm Spring day. The boyfriend and I biked to a park nearby and spent the afternoon reading gossip magazines and working on crossword puzzles.…

You might have noticed that this season I’ve been playing around with trends, colours and shapes a lot more than during my previous Spring seasons. You’ve probably read my SS17 resolutions here, and there are plenty of recent outfits that show my little style experiments! Yup, I’m all into bright yellow, red and orange, and yes,…

Hope you’re having a relaxed Saturday too! And if you’re not familiar with Bar Vert yet, you should go and check it out. Maybe I should write a little hotspot piece about it?

I’m not sure how, but 1) a leopard coat makes every outfit infinitely cool and 2) slides make every outfit infinitely cool. So combining the two seemed like the ultimate, foolproof formula to look infinitely cool until ETERNITY. Okay, I might have been lazy while writing the title of this post. And it might have been a…

Yay! It’s time again for a Spring cleanout! I gathered plenty of pieces to sell, and will do so TOMORROW evening during the WNDR WOMAN afterwork event by Marie Claire in Antwerp. The event is a celebration of the female entrepreneur and badassery in general! What’s not to like? Besides discovering lots of strong Belgian brands…

Welcome to the obligatory Spring cherry blossom photo series in which I seem to have lost something of great value in the grass and am desperately trying to find it without anybody noticing! Or I might just be checking out the unknown territory I found myself in. Because as a resident of the city of Antwerp since…

A detail from one of my favourite looks last week, wearing my La Redoute slides & shredded & Other Stories denim. Stay tuned for the full outfit post!

Yesterday I showed you a little preview of this (yet again) yellow-infused look, and now it’s time for the full package! Although I mostly work from home, I still like to dress up for the office in the morning. It just feels more productive to reply to emails in a chic pair of trousers instead of a onesie,…

As an absolute cat lover, I was a bit sceptic when I found out my brother and his girlfriend got a dog. When I was a kid, a raging, rabid dog in our garden gave me scares for lyfe. Dogs haven’t been my best friends since that day. Although I sort of got over it a few…

This season’s Spring resolutions seem a lot easier to stick to than I had expected. This look contains no less than three of the five S-resolutions I’ve made for my Spring wardrobe earlier this month — shades, sports and slides! Let’s call this outfit an eclectic burst of colour, preppiness and a sporty touch. And brace yourselves, because…

Fridays at Tinsel are the best. Have a lovely weekend!

Cool! Belgian free media platform The Word Magazine and This Is Antwerp teamed up to document “a 100-strong selection of local movers and shakers setting the tone for the neighborhood of tomorrow”. And alongside a bunch of real cool, inspiring people, I got featured in this beautiful portrait of Antwerp Warriors and their vision on the city! “I couldn’t think of any other…

Remember my inspiration post on straw baskets last week? Next to a few stunning outfits that reflect how I’d like to wear one this season, I also added a little wishlist of straw bags that are currently in store. I stopped by at Zara to get my favourite one of the list, this cute rectangular bag! The clash between the clean cut…

I know how much I’ve been talking about the weather lately (or, always), but LOOK AT THAT SKY! The only way to beat today’s Monday blues is overdosing on some Vitamin D. So that’s why today I’ll be working with my laptop outside to get some much needed sunshine exposure. Not I haven’t had any sunshine…

Sunshine! Bring on the hotpants, ice-cream and beach balls! Okay, that might be slightly overreacting, but I was ecstatic when Spring finally arrived this week. Bestie Lisa and I celebrated the welcome arrival in a more subtle way: think green tea (disguised as beer, apparently) and bare ankles on a sunny terrace. With the company of my…

I’m not a dog person. But when I met my brother and his girlfriend’s latest family member… Yeaaaah, see for yourself. This is Louis Quatorze, my newest baby pug friend! A lot more photos to come soon, no worries 😉

Yeaaaah, last week’s Monday morning was clearly a better one than today’s (hello clouds). The boyfriend and I woke up early thanks to the sun glaring through the windows, which is probably the best thing to wake up to — apart from a kitten or an avocado toast. I think the last time I was…

HELLO FRIDAY! I’ve had a fantastic week, and not just because the sun finally decided to come say hi again. On Instagram you might have seen that I went to London for a few days to attend the hush style personality launch, about which I wrote here a little while ago! Next week I’ll be…

Since I worked really really hard last week, I granted myself a few hours off on Friday to enjoy an early weekend afternoon. The boyfriend and I went for a cup of coffee to celebrate the first Spring sun (finally!) and did a little shopping tour afterwards. I haven’t done a proper shopping trip in ages, so…
