Easter colors

Well, first of all Happy Easter to all of u!

I hope u had a nice day whether u celebrate or not. I surely did!

We've been blessed with nice weather for a whole week and today was no exception. It was more than 30°C in the sun, which is a lot here and especially in april.

Despite of a late night, we got up early to enjoy a day with the family.

Also, for the first time in my life, I was part of the egg hunt. The lucky girl who got a lot of eggs is my bf's niece, who's just two years old. So for her it was the first time too. She's the most adorable child I've ever seen!

For today I picked a bright colored outfit, which reflects my current mood. As u can see I am a person of the extremes when it comes to color choice and maybe not that alone ;)

I wore a Matthew Williamson for H&M top, H&M Garden Collection skirt and Zara shoes

The neighbors cat, Rik, also paid a visit. He's a really friendly and curious cat with whom I play a lot in the garden. He was a real fan of my shoes!

My favorite girl!

Egg overload

A touch of heaven

The beach and the see were actually my favorite part of the trip.

To see the sky and water so blue and clear, to swim in the sea and lay down in the sand was like a little part of heaven. I even have a little tan now, which is a rare thing, 'cause I can't tan in Belgium.

Seeing our see this week, made me kind of sad. All gray, so was the sky, but despite the cold weather filled with people. Europeans are some mad people at times.

Anyways, here's a part of heaven for u. The pictures were taken on the last day of our trip.

The colorful dress proofed to be perfect beach material!

I wore an H&M Garden Collection dress

The weather has been so great the past few days, I took a few breakes to enjoy the sun in the company of my bf or the girls. Unfortunately I'm now stuck inside until tuesday.

But they've been promising bad weather, so I'm not going to be tempted or distracted :)

Well, at least not by the sun!

I just worn this dress from the H&M Garden collection for the first time and I must tell you I'm absolutely in love with the popping colors. Despite quiet a volume the dress is very light, it's also short. So perfect for a hot day.

I went a bit color crazy by adding a neon belt & flats. I must confess that I've really have been bitten by the neon bug ^^

And yes, I'm the one who stays pretty pale the whole year.

Wearing : Dress H&M The Garden Collection, H&M flats, C&A sunnies, vintage nude clutch

I wish all of you great weather wherever you may be :)

Paradise

School has just started again and things have been a bit hectic around here, so I've been missing out on the blogging field... But back now.

This sunday I visited the biggest European floral exhibition, called the Floraliën.

It took place in Ghent.

The venue of the exhibition was huge, I've never seen so much beautiful flowers in my life.

The ideas some designers came up with were incredible. This was one big inspirational trip for me.

It really stunned me how creative designers were with all sorts of plants, flowers, trees, ...

I really got an Alice In Wonderland feel there.

Off course this was the perfect occasion to debut the famous H&M rose jacket from the Garden Collection. This was definitely one of best buys I ever made!

Wearing: H&M The Garden Collection jacket, H&M skirt, Dita Von Teese for H&M Against AIDS shirt, Vintage clutch, Vivienne Westwood heart orb brooch, YSL seamed stockings, Asos flats.

Here are some pictures of the pieces I especially liked:

The Brussels Atomium rebuild in flowers.

This ball of flowers was huge, and so impressive. Didn't even look real.

Must have been a lot of work to put together something impeccably symmetric.

This sort of Bamboo is able to grow 30 cm a day. The exhibition runs one week...

This tree in a box was the most surreal thing of the venue. It looked like a tree in a mist, which reminded me a lot of Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow".

I bet Veronique Branquinho, knowing her obsession with trees, would have liked it too.

This orchid chess game was Alice in Wonderland meats Breaking Dawn cover (Twilight series).

Such white orchid "bridge" would be perfect for a wedding.

Garden Of Delight

Today I went to Antwerp to pick up some pieces from

the H&M Garden Collection.

From the moment I saw the collection, I fell in love with the colors and the floral prints.

The whole winter I longed for bright colors and floral dresses and finally they're here.

It was really hard to choose. So far I bought 3 pieces from the collection.

This jacket is so delicate and beautiful. Definitely one of the most beautiful pieces that I own.

I'll probably will buy these pieces later.

This is a real breakthrough for me, to buy so many colors in one day.

Can't wait to wear all this wonderful items.

Stay tuned for a new outfit post...

xoxo
