1. Pearls or diamonds? 
Pearls.

I don't wear nail polishes very often, but when I do it's a nude, pink or red.
5. Perfect evening? 
Dinner & a movie or drinks with my boyfriend. Or a dinner with friends. 
6. Favorite romantic movie(s)? 
Amèlie, Hors de prix, what happens in Vegas, what's your number, love actually.

8. Favorite flower(s)? 
Pink peonies, pink or white roses and hydrangeas.

flowy dress

I love these dresses! I bought the green one at first, but after a couple of times wearing it I decided to get the blue one as well. They are super comfortable, the viscose fabric stays cool even on a hot summer day and is easy to wash at a 30 °C (or even better, a handwash program). You can easily wear this dress with a cute pair of sandals, wedges or heels and it is perfect for multiple occassions from a summer picknick in the park, to work or a birthday.

Favorite videos - June 2015

I've done a few posts on 'favorite youtube-videos', or my favorite youtube-vloggers/bloggers. But here's a little update! I really love watching different videos on Youtube from make-up tutorials to DIY projects or house-renovations. What is your favorite subject in youtube-videos? Or do you have any vloggers or youtube-channels you like to follow or have a look at in a daily basis? 


Here are a few videos I've recently watched (and really enjoyed)! Hope you'll love them too! 


  Bedroom decoration.  
and here's another one.


  Make-up tutorials.  
This one is by my favorite MUA; Lauren Curtis.
And last but not least, one more:
Can you tell I like elegant, soft make-up looks?  

  DIY.  

  Work out routine.

La Porte Dauphine


Hello beautiful people! Do you need a little inspiration today? I sure do. How about this amazing painting by Kees van Dongen! You probably don't have to guess which city it is. 

Enjoy your day!

Mothers day gift guide.

       Happy Mothersday!
In need of some inspiration? Here's a little gift guide! I think home-made goodies or anything home-baked would be great as well. Other options are; a great (special) wine or even a wine-tasting, a framed picture or piece of art. Just buy (or make) something special that makes her feel appreciated! 

Happy Mothersday!

Pretty florals.

How pretty is this skirt? I think it looks like something 'designer' but it's only €46,95! Would look perfect with a simple black top or thin black turtle neck, stockings and overknee boots or a pair of heels (or flats or....) 
Buy it here. 
The same styling would go perfect with this pretty floral skirt by Ted Baker, but this one is from a much higher price range (€179,95). Which one is your favorite?

Hobby

This is something that definately makes me think about what my hobbies/passions are and what I would love to do and/or accomplish in life. What would your dream job be like? What are your hobbies right now and what would you like to be doing (maybe in the future)? I find it very hard to name one actual hobby at the moment. For a long time I would have said; blogging. But at the moment, I'm having some sort of writers block. I love to look at other blogs, follow several vloggers on youtube but it seems that it just doesn't bring me the inspiration for creating my own articles, blogs or collages. With that beeing said, I'm very happy at the moment! I just made a promotion at work, I'm a great relationship (and have been for the past years), I have a lovely house and garden and adorable pets. So 'finding' a real hobby should, to me, not be something you're looking for but something you come accross that makes you happy while you're doing it. 
Anyway, I do agree with this quote. I think, your job is a very big part of your life and therefor should be something that, besides making you get a paycheck in the end of the month, at least you don't hate doing... And working out in any way, from swimming to horsebackriding or running and doing something creative are great additions in making you healthy & happy and increasing your quality of life!
