Fabulous 32


 
 
It's my birthday!
I'm turning 32 today.  OMG that sounds so old even just writing it!
Although, you're only as old as you feel, right?
So here's to 28 forever and fabulous!!!!
Cheers!

Discovering Beauty


 
We all know Glossybox and Birchbox, unfortunately both of them not available in Belgium.
Countless times I have watched the unpacking on youtube or have read the reviews and hauls on blogs only to leave me even more unsatisfied with the fact I would probably never have such a box.  But all that is now going to change thanks to Deauty!
 
Deauty is the first beauty box in Belgium and it is 100% Belgian as well.  It stands for Discovering Beauty which means it wants to help woman find their beauty.  
For those of you who are not familiar with the concept, these boxes are a monthly subscription for which you get 4 to 6 sample (travel) size products. Going from skincare to haircare to even make-up and perfume.  On their site you will find inspiration, information, tutorials and a lot of tips about beauty and make-up.
They even already gave away the names of some of the brands they’ll be working with:
Bioterm, Clarins, Clinique, Essie, Estée Lauder, Kérastase, Kiehl’s, l’Oreal, Nuxe, Redken.
 
Deauty will cost 15 €/month so if you’re interested you can register here to be the first to find out:
 
I’m super excited about this one!
Talk to you soon!

Youtube Loves




Promised you guys that a few things would change on the blog and that I would also post more about my other interests and loves besides fashion.
 
One of those things is beauty and make-up.  I remember when I was little I loved secretly using my mom’s blushes and lipsticks, painting my nails, doing my hair and wearing her high heels while playing dress up.  And I still love it every day!
I love getting ready in the morning, I even sometimes first pick my make-up and then choose what to wear with it.
 
I have learned so much about make-up throughout the years but the biggest inspiration for me still comes from watching beauty gurus on Youtube.
So I thought I’d share some of my favorites with you!  They’re fun to watch, you can learn so much from them and you can discover great new products to try out.
 
Starting off today with Tatiana from GlamLifeGuru.

I only recently discovered her channel but she already is one of my favorites.  Her videos are fun to watch and you can tell she puts so much effort into them.  They are very informative and well thought through.  She talks about make-up, does reviews, hauls, monthly favorites, hair tutorials, etc… thanks to her I have discovered so many amazing products and new things to try out.  She also is a firm believer, like me, in beauty that comes from inside out.  Meaning that what you eat and drink will reflect on how your skin and hair will look.  So the healthier and more balanced your diet is, the better you will look. I could go on and on about how amazing I think she is but I can also just show you a video so you can find out for yourself.
 
I decided to share with you one of her latest videos: Big Bouncy Curls – Conair Hot Rollers
When I see this, I kind of feel sad for cutting my hair short J
 
 
 
 

If you like her please check out her channel: GlamLifeGuru and subscribe!

 

Hope you guys enjoyed and I’ll talk to you soon.

A night on the town









H&M dress // Zara sandals // Chloë clutch


One of the things I love on vacation are the warm summer evenings.
Perfect for walking around the little harbours and just enjoying the beautiful scenery.
Went for drinks at St Maxime wearing my new dress from H&M.
Normally I never wear flower dresses, just not me, but for this one I gladly made an exception. Probably cause it isn’t so typical and cause the colours are a bit neon.

It’s Monday again so that means back to work! 
Talk to you soon

Couleur Locale







Cool Cat bandeau // H&M shorts // Ralph Lauren shades // Havaianas slippers


On one of our first days in France, we visited the lovely town of Ramatuelle.
Small streets and houses painted in the cutest pastel colors.  We enjoyed a walk around the town and had a croissant for lunch before heading back to the beach.  Still had to get used to the heat and seriously wanted/needed to work on my tan!

Talk to you soon!
