OUTFIT // Colours, people, statues, fashion.








I only managed to make some outfit shots, but here I am guys, standing in ANTWERPEN. I regret not having taken pictures of the beautiful streets, wonderful architecture, the gorgeous people and the talented street artists. Talking about street artists, the living statue in picture 4 took a break of his frozen pose and made some time for his friend on the right to have a chat. Had to take a picture before my camera battery ran out.

The shops in Antwerpen are brilliant, the high street stores are all there at the boulevard-ish Meir. Lovely street. After shopping at Urban Outfitters (wish they had one in the Netherlands) we found our way to stylish COS.
My shopping climax however? We accidentally bumped into a vintage store called Think Twice, and they held their regularly held €2,- sale! I've scored 10 vintage pieces for €20, including a 60s maxi dress and two leather jackets.
...I don't think I'll ever step into an Amsterdam vintage store again. See you soon, Antwerpen.

LIFE // L'Escala

So here's the first part about my holiday in Spain.
I figured that the numerous fairytale-like places I have visited (and the thousands of pictures) deserved multiple posts.

I celebrated my holiday with my family and boyfriend in the lovely region of L'Escala. This place consists of the typical mix of traditional Catalan culture and crowded tourism. I prefer the first part.

Therefore I really appreciated the little town of Sant Martí D'Empúries. Despite the many tourists swirling around the restaurants, ordering French fries and egg sunny side up, we managed to enjoy the view, the Gothic church and the lovely food.

OUTFIT // The anecdote.

Bag | vintage

Rosary necklace | vintage from a heritage
Cross ring | made by me
Vintage scarf wrapped around hat


Just a quick Sunday night post. Wore the shorts that I picked up at the ZARA sale, and one of my buys from River Island - the boater hat.

I feel like buying a red Vespa to go with the shorts, and go to Italy by scooter to have a classic Roman holiday..
Sadly enough, this year's holiday destination is Spain.
No just kidding, I am really looking forward to my vacation! I just realized it's less than a week away..

So what's your vacation going to look like? I want to hear your stories.

OUTFIT // NDSM.




Went to Amsterdam last weekend to go to a flea market at NDSM-werf, a former boat building site.
I scored two vintage dresses (can't wait to show you!) and a crazy blazer that should have belonged to someone who's into yodelling (it's very classical Austrian haha).


Remember me getting third at this contest? Finally got the River Island gift card and it has been well spent! Among all the stuff I got was this dress. Love it to bits.



The industrial look of NDSM is very inspirational.

Got a lot of questions about the cross ring featured in my last post. I have a part-time job at a jewellery store, which might explain why I am capable of making my own jewellery.

Oh, and I bumped into Sabrina from AfterDRK at the ZARA. Nice to see you again, girl!

WARDROBE // A heavy cross to carry alone.








Couldn't find a ring like this around.
Decided to make one myself.

Multiple ring, stud ring & eagle ring, my favorites.
Straw hat, H&M.

OUTFIT // My heart that you play on




Again the leather jacket. Couldn't keep it on for five minutes, it was too hot. It were some stylish five minutes, though.

INSPIRATION // ..On a Tuesday night.


I went out with some good friends on a Tuesday night.
the night involved slightly too much of rosé wine, cocktails, and, strangely enough, I recall to have eaten some apple pie with whipped cream, too.

I got home.
I took pictures I can't remember to have taken.






It was 2 AM. Didn't feel like going to bed.
Found inspiring pictures about cigarettes and tattoos.








Woke up with amnesia.
