Trousers+Scarf: Gift from my aunt/Slippers: Birkenstocks/ Jacket: Lee/ Hat+Sunglasses: H&M Sometimes you just do everything against your instincts... and it feels great. There's no shame in walking around in your jogging trousers. Especially when they are as pink as mine. Just don't wear them everyday. Love, Dominique ...
I mostly despise advertisments before a youtube video. I mean, sometimes the advertisment is longer than the actual video(!). Then you need to make a brutal decision whether it's worth the wait, which most of the times isn't... but you'll still wait. This time was different. I genuinely enjoyed an advertisment and was surprised about the level of drool coming out of my mouth. I'm of course talking about the new H&M advert/collection. It's, dramatically...

Yesterday I went on the train ON MY OWN. Like literally me, myself and I (and loads of strangers). Earlier this week I went 50/50 on my own. Forth with my sister and back alone. Well, I thought I was alone. Turns out she hopped in some carriages behind me. It was horrible and I almost cried (tears were already preparing themselves for a downfall). But when I came home and the day went on...

Top+Skirt: Made by me/ Jacket: Only/ Shoes: H&M/ Hat: Bought on the Antiquity Market Belgium When making this set I was inspired by the cover of Parallel Lines by Blondie and La Loge by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. As my friend said to me "It sounds like you've just googled random stuff and put it together", but nothing is less true. I'm an ultimate impressionism-fangirl and everytime I see this painting I feel like I'm staring back...
Skirt+Jacket: Sheila de Vries/Turban: River Island/Scarf: Miss Etam/ Sunglasses: H&M/Shoes: Schoenenreus Sheila de Vries used to be the designer of former queen Beatrix. So when I saw this set hanging in a Thrift Store, I couldn't believe my luck. The left sleeve is a bit discoloured, but I can live with that. My mum asked when the aeroplane was leaving and I almost pinned an old KLM button on (but I couldn't get myself making...
I was walking the dog in my pjs and saw that for the second time in a row there was a full moon. Only, because it's so foggy, the moon is really blurry and there are these clouds in front of it and it looks really pretty. I wanted to take a picture of it and when I came home, I took my camera and went into the garden. I looked up, but there was...

It won't be long before I return back to school... like next Monday. With returning back to school I obviously mean: going to a new unknown school I've visited once in my life. So to prepare myself for what the future withholds, I've decided to make 3D Collages of Inspiration (well, I didn't really had anything to do except for freaking out... what might explain the level of composition. Bare with me). Think of it...
“One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” Virginia Woolf Today I watched this documentary about Antoni Miralda. Antoni Miralda is a multidiscplinary artist and is known for involving food into his projects. He says that not gold, but the "holy stomach" will rule the future. People listen to their stomach. You always have to eat. Life depends on it. Miralda is somewhat of a food specialist and the...
Shirt:Primark/Skirt+Shoes:H&M/Socks:Moonlight/Bracelet:Lucardi/Hat:Antique French hat bought on the Antiquity Market Belgium “I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing – that it was all started by a mouse.” Walt Disney Mickey Mouse was created in 1928 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks and is a worldwide known icon. They wanted to name the mouse Mortimer, but Walt Disney's wife (Lillian Marie Bounds) thought that Mickey was more suitable. Though in 1930 Floyd Gottfredson came...

Years ago I watched this documentary about grown ups dressing up as stuffed animals. They dedicated their lives to the art of walking around, basically, in a costume. Everything they did was related to their lifestyle with the ultimate goal: becoming what they pretend to be. So when I was walking around in the Primark the other day and saw this beauty hanging, I couldn't resist the temptation. From now on you'll only be seeing...
