Little miss sunshine

20 June 2015






Hey guys, it's been a while! So much has happened since my last post! The past three months I've been doing an internship at the Belgian issue of Marie Claire. It has been the most wonderful experience and I can't wait to finally graduate and get a real job at a fashion magazine. But before I get back to studying, me and my boyfriend have a little trip planned to Tuscany (no misfortunes this year!). I'm already counting down the days 'till we arrive in beautiful Florence and discover the many, many gelato flavors.

We've been having lovely weather here in Belgium as well lately and it feels so good to be able to walk around in just a dress and not be cold. When I saw this yellow skirt at H&M, I had to have it. I don't have a lot of yellow items in my closet while I do love the color, especially for summer. And well, you know I have a weak spot for floral prints. To give my look a little bit of edge, I combined it with this fringe bucket bag I got at Forever 21 last week. A girl can never have too many bags, right? 

Hope you have a lovely day! ❤

3 cake shop favorites in Edinburgh

18 April 2015


One of the first things I do when planning a trip is look up cozy restaurants and yummy bakeries to try out. Edinburgh turned out to be a real sugar paradise. A small list of my favorite spots:

Lovecrumbs

We accidentally bumped into Lovecrumbs while vintage shopping and it was the best discovery of our entire trip. I had a latte and a piece of Easter cake and it was sooo good. I loved the fact that all of the cakes were stored in an old cabinet and if you're lucky, you can even enjoy your cake while sitting in the window.

Mademoiselle Macaron

I know this technically doesn't count as a cake shop, but who doesn't love a good Parisian macaron? The shop is super cozy and the interior reflects the quirky personality of the shop owner, Rachel Hanretty. I had the pleasure of interviewing Rachel for one of my assignments and she's a real inspiration. She got the idea for her own macaron boutique after taking a few macaron making classes in Paris. I recommend the salted-caramel and lemon flavors.  

22 Grindlay Street, Edinburgh

Mimi's Bakehouse

You can visit the main shop at 63 Shore but the second, smaller location Mimi's Picnic Parlour was just a street away from our hotel (It was faith!). I fell in love with the dreamy pastel decor and once you see all of their gorgeous cupcakes on display, it's impossible to resist.
