Lately my motto seems the be All I need is less. I've been decluttering, throwing and giving stuff away and cleaning out my dressing. The few things that I bought include a running outfit, magazines, train & plane tickets and a few gifts. Pure necessities 😉 Today is my birthday and even though I don't Read article…

Running around
Today I'm celebrating my first month as a runner! I never thought I would enjoy it so much, but I guess I'm addicted to the runner's high. And the things I discover on my runs are worth to keep going: I saw an agility dog show, was cheered on by fishermen, spotted these pretty tiles Read article…

A few of my favorite places in Berlin: ► Factory Girl /// Auguststraße 29 /// mon-sun 10-20 /// Super nice cafe (their fresh ginger tea comes with honey and a cute felt sleeve), with very friendly staff and fresh food.

2 Peony Girls
Last week I headed to Compiègne for a photo shoot at a florist called Argevil. While I was taking pictures of some very pretty summer flowers (and chatting with the adorable owner Loïc), I couldn't help but capture these peonies for this month's #2flowergirls challenge. The shape of these particular peonies are so delicate and Read article…
Weekend tip: la Brocante
My favorite season started: brocante season! Visiting a flea market on Sunday is like a national sport here in France. After visiting numerous marchés aux puces, I must admit that I became quite addicted to the art of junk hunting. It's a nice opportunity to visit new places in the Oise, discuss (or negotiate!) with Read article…
Orontas cycling supplies
Old world quality and modern thinking, that's what Orontas is all about. I spotted this window display in Stockholm, not far from the wonderful Stutterheim raincoats boutique (which I love). I was intrigued by the clever text: To me, it looked like some kind of sustainable beauty or house cleaning brand. I had no idea Read article…

Pärlans Konfektyr Stockholm
Usually I'm more into very contemporary places, but when it's done as well as at Pärlans, I'm more than happy to make an exception. Even more so if it comes with toffee caramels, sweet music and a fashionable staff. Pärlans is a cute little shop in Söder, Stockholm, where they make and sell delicious caramels. Read article…

Xmas in Paris
Can you believe we're only a week away from Christmas? This is what xmas looks like in Paris: above Andrea Crews for Uniqlo, below the Repetto store. The light swirls around the ballerina dress remind me of the beautiful Le Deun lights. This made me laugh, I bet I'm not the only who took a Read article…
