Finding beautiful and affordable ceramics, it has been a struggle for life.

Look inside the home and heart of Cesar Manrique
Late September we visited the astonishing isle of Lanzarote.

Cesar was born on Lanzarote in 1919 and found a tragic ending to his life… More
Nice to meet you, Blos!
Me, being a bit of a lazy oaf on the beauty front ain’t nothing new. ‘#blessed’ with what people call perfect skin, I don’t see the point in over-investing in beauty or make-up products. I have my Delbôve ritual and I’m perfectly fine with that and if I skip a day, no one will notice,… More
5 reasons to invest in designer vases
For as long as I can remember, “standard” things were none of my interest. I’ve always been looking for stand-out pieces, something different, be it subtle or completely over-the-top. That’s why, in vase picking, it came natural to me to end up falling in love with designer items. I’ve got quite the little collection by… More
Tiny indoor gardens
In the quest of filling our suburbian apartment with all the types of plants I can find, I let my eyes dwell on the terrarium trend. And before I knew it, I had four tiny indoor gardens of my own… I had been waiting for water plant season all winter, so when they hit stores… More
How to: add a dash of pink to your home
There’s no color more schizophrenic than pink. Hated by many, secretly loved by more. What is it that makes us a bit ashamed when admitting our love for pink? I’ve never tried to hide it. It’s not abundantly present in my wardrobe or home, but every now and then I love to make a pink… More

HOW TO: wallpaper
When I wrote this post back in May, I never thought I’d be covering my walls a few months later. But when I got the chance to get my hands on my favorite Tenue de Ville tropical wallpaper, there was no question about it: I’d have to become a master in wallpaper hanging in a… More

Rose garden
Last week I got the chance to meet up with Dandan, the Chinese girl discovering our beautiful Province of Antwerp. Sometimes all you need is a story, this one’s about “the rose”, to learn a thing or two about universal humanity. We met up at the rose garden of Vrijbroekpark in Mechelen, the perfect setting… More
Wall textile

Let’s go outside!
A few years ago we moved from a house with a big garden in the countryside around Ghent to an apartment in the outskirts of Antwerp. A whole adjustment for us outdoorsy types. But we fell head over heels for our prewar place with cute little terrace overlooking the communal garden of our building. You… More
Wallpaper inspiration
“Don’t be like the rest of them darling!” A quote I religiously live by ever since I saw the light of day. Not that I try my hardest to be special, I just genuinely fall for the less evident things in life, I’m even drawn to it you could say. That’s why I’m having a hard… More

A girl geek guide to fashion
More than once, I’ve felt like a bit of a girl geek. Not that I’m into computer language, gaming or anything like that, it’s more of a tech fashion/blogger related kind of thing. People even tend to ask me advice about these topics nowadays. About time to introduce you to 3 of my favorite daily… More
