à cause des brunettes

Perfect timing to post an outfit with a trench after the monsoon that passed Belgium in the past couple of days. It's a result of a collaboration between French online fashion shop La Redoute and the Finnish LVMH award-winning brand AALTO. I really like how an established e-commerce platform supports this curious and non-conformist designer in setting up a more commercial partnership.

And this is how I styled it. Wearing the AALTO & La Redoute trench together with a Second Female T-shirt, Zara trousers and Gucci sunglasses which is available at Bert Bril in the city center of Antwerp.

Swinging between temperatures of +20 and just about 15 degrees, I don't have to tell you that my summer closet is not ready yet. However, I'm over the moon that the winter puffer jackets are tucked away, and we can rely on breezy blazers for now. Earlier I added this pink checked Mango blazer to my Spring wish list. And I'm happy that I can say I checked that one off. It's a real show stopper and doesn't need much colour for the rest. Here's how I combined it.

By the way, I'm wearing my vintage Gucci bag! It's a real treasure.

As I said I'm super happy with the vintage Gucci, how do you like it?

After a few (very) steamy summer days temperatures are dropping again - you know, Belgium.
My hoodie-love gets revived again, since unfortunately we have to say goodbye to wearing T's only.

Hereby I'm showing you an outfit that's perfect for the in-between temperatures, or for the chilly spring nights. The skirt screams for summer, while the sweat tones it down a bit. In my eyes, THE combo.

Furthermore I've been experimenting with these Nike Air Vapormax sneakers. Initially they felt weird, looking like soccer shoes and if you could hear the sound they make when stepping on wooden floors you'd scream. But after getting used to them, they feel super light and literally it seems like your feet can 'breathe' because of the knitted upper.

One of the biggest challenges in my latest fashion quests was finding black flared trousers made from a thicker material, which I could wear to the office. Until today I still haven't found the perfect one, yet I did get lucky and found a beige pair at Mango (on sale - double yay).

I paired it with a vintage striped blazer, a white tee (these are underrated btw), my favourite earrings and my new Ace & Tate 'allen' sunglasses. This is a perfect office look, at least it is to me.

Pieces that are truly 'power pieces' in my opinion : co-ords, the blazer, statement earrings, coloured sunglasses and the ugly sneakers.

Combine them and then this is what happens. Lately I've been a big fan of the colour green, however I heard that yellow is this summer's big shot, I just can't help but going my own direction.

This two piece is super light and comfortable, perfect for the slightly freezing spring days. You never know what you're going to get.

I know, these ugly dad sneakers are slightly heading towards the Balenciaga's, but hey, who's going to spend a good €600 on sneakers (shoes you wear every day)? Not me lol. The earrings are Mango, this is really one of my must follow brands when it comes down to affordable but artsy earrings. They're doing a pretty fine job. Keeping it coming with the accessories: the sunglasses are from Komono (Belgian brand yay!).

Oh and the blazer is vintage 💚
