EVENT | JuliaJune FW14

In the beginning of April I was invited to go to the JuliaJune x Fevery event. 

JuliaJune is a growing brand that describes itselves as 

"Edgy yet feminine. Naughty yet romantic. Julia is addicted to life. Her personality is infectious. 

She doesn't take life & herself too seriously. Is always open for new experiences. Greedy for fashion and hungry for beauty. She lives her life to the maximum.

She loves her freedom. Follows her own rules. 

She's wild... intriguing. The future will bring her... whatever she wants." 

Quite a beautiful poem/story to describe let people meet your brand, right? 

Fevery is a valued bakery in my city, Ghent, which has to close it's doors unfortunately. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to go to the basement -the place where all the magic happened-, have a little chat with the owners of Fevery and see how yummy things were made in this very authentic bakery.  

Now you may think, what is the link between these two? Well, Fevery is closing his doors while JuliaJune will open these exact doors again in August but with fashion instead of food. 

I guess it is probably one of the most smart decisions to do it like this because fashion and food are both a piece of art in my eyes. 

I had a super lovely evening thanks to original concept, the food & drinks, DJ Søren, fellow bloggers Aurélie and Stephanie with who I spent most of my time with, and MediaMania! 

OUTFIT | Leopard in Rotterdam

Another outfitpost, finally! As you may have read here I went to Rotterdam with the boyfriend to spend Easter weekend but actually it was to celebrate our five years anniversary. We decided to have a little 'datenight', dress up a bit more -me wearing a dress, he wearing a shirt- instead of just casual outfits. 

I wore the little black dress I bought for my 20th birthday together with my leopardcoat, which was my coat for the whole weekend and I was and I still am surprised how good I can combine this coat! Definitely a good purchase last year, hooray! 

WORDS | "To live a creative life.." by Joseph Chilton Pearce

Let's think and talk about these wise words from Joseph Chilton Pearce, an American author. 

I completely agree with him and let me tell you why. Blogging is a way of expressing your creativaty but you may have noticed that I'm not posting that many articles and definitely not a lot of outfits, where this blog was/is actually about. There are multiple reasons for that but one of the biggest reasons is that I'm scared. 

There, I said it. I am scared. 

I'm scared that you won't like what I post, that you're going to unfollow me, that my post doesn't get enough comments and/or pageviews, my photo on Instagram doesn't get enough likes, etc. 

This may sound superficial, and in a way it is -I realize that-, and strange to some of you but I'm only human as well. I am just as human as every single one of my readers and I have also fears and insecurities. 

If you have any idea how I could be able to handle these fears and insecurities more, every tip is welcome because I want to be a good blogger. What did I just say? A good blogger? I want to be a great blogger! 

Don't be afraid to share your experiences, blogger or not, because we can all learn from each other. 

Please don't judge me by this little piece I wrote because I am just being honest with you, my readers. 

Thank you. 

INSPIRATION | All black outfits spring/summer

Let's finish April with some inspiration and start May with some. The most obvious thing to do would share very colorful outfits but guess what, let's do the opposite. Let's be a bit rebellious and look at very beautiful total black outfits to wear in spring and summer. 

Prepare yourself for an overdose of inspiring looks in my favorite color! 

WORDS | I wanna wake up..

If you have read last week's words-post you know that I went on a little trip with the boyfriend. In everyday life we don't live together so we don't sleep together every night and, of course, don't wake up together. We've already spent time together for days, weeks and I have always loved waking up next to him. Last week that only got confirmed, everything is so much better then. 

What's better to start off your day than waking up to someone you love?
