How to: Fishtail braid

Hi fashionista's! Today, I present to you the fishtail braid, also known as the herringbone or fish bone braid. It's a very pretty sort of braid that is incredibly popular among the celebrities, but also among the fashionista's. This hairpiece is so classy and beautiful that I can't forget it! It looks elaborate and time-consuming. But it's suprisingly easy to do: it will become a rushed-morning-go-for-it. A little tip: it's easier when you have long hair.
There are three methods to make it, but I prefer the first one. The last one is the easiest to begin with.Click on this link and you'll see a wonderful description of how to make an easy fishtail braid. For people who are very creative, I have a bunch of photos. From a crown of fishtail braid to a fishtail braid in a torquette. Enjoy and please comment to tell me what you think of it!

Look of the week 7/10 - 13/10

Pink is hot material right now! I love to combine pink pants with sturdy heel- boots. These are very fashionable and trendy, but at the same moment also comfortable. Put a nice lace top on it and a pair of earrings, and you're done! This outfit  makes me feel happy because of its challenging look. Hope you like!

Paris Fashion Week

The ready-to-wear fashion show in Paris was from September 24 until October 2! I bet you thought I was gonna say 'sacre bleu'? That's okay, I know it was pretty lame either way. ;)
Anyway, Paris Fashion Week was especially for spring/summer 2014. I left you a bunch of images and YouTube video's. Hope you like!

Hot list: Pleasant Scarves!


The cold and chilly days are coming. Cycling in the morning with a cold neck is totally not ideal! But, which scarf do you need to wear when the knit scarves are too hot?
I collected a couple thin ones with nice prints, perfect for this autumnal weather. Take a look at these cute scarves for some inspiration and at my previous article!

Hotlist: Rainy Boots and hikerboots



 Autumn in Belgium stands for rain. A lot of rain. Although that weather is not good for your hair and make-up, there's a fun thing about this new season: new shoes! Something that really annoys you: cold or wet feet. It's not cool to run with your sneakers trough the rain and puddles. Musthave for Autumn (in Belgium)? Rain boots! You might think of ugly shiny boots now, but nothing could be further from the truth. There are certainly lots of great boots you can find that are rain proof. With such nice boots on your feet, it's almost a pity that it's dry. Every fashionista needs a pair of hikerboots in her closer, so these are also appropriate.

Look of the week 30/09- 06/10

Herewith, you have my favourite daily-school-outfit for this season! It's a comfortable and classy combo with lots of possibilities. I love the scarf with the colourful birds because it's amusing and it brings some colour into the (sometimes toneless) autumn. Only watching to it makes me happy and shiny. You can wear the blazer with a random top, from simple grey to preppy flowers. The choice is all yours!

Hotspot: New York Fashion Week (05/09- 12/09)

If I would tell everything that happened on New York Fashion Week, I'd still be busy at the end of my life. So for your own good, I left you a bunch of YouTube video's below. Watch the recaps of similar runway shows or go behind-the-scenes with Michael Kors. Watch and learn it from the masters!

The big trends of NYFW

1. South Pacific Vibe


    Nostalgic flower patterns, beach bound pants,...


2.White Karate


   Spring's runways were packed with so many Karate Kids, white-to-ivory, paired with coordinated slouchy pants.

3. Secretary look


A little bit secretary, a little bit nasty librarian,... but definitely chic. Just assume she's certainly not dressed in the dark.

4. Sunny Side Up



Let's go with the flow and take the sunny side up. Mustard-flavoured or flashy yellow: we don't care!

5. Shirts on top


Yes, they can be preppy. But don't you look forward to go the way of French Provincial, non?

6. Country Excursion


These outfits bring to mind a summery Saturday excursion into the country. Gingham's, bandana prints,...

7. Rags


Chic women have been flipping their jacket lapels forward for several seasons now, and that time isn't over yet. Note: with too-cool-for-school details!Sleeveless versions are easy to combine and refreshingly different.

8. The odd couple


We spotted taut midriffs at just about every show.High- waisted skirts are allowing us to breath a sigh of relief while we're rocking this trend next spring. 

9. Shut up!
