Urtekram for the win.

I’ve had the pleasure to try out some products of Urtekram. This brand is all about pure and natural body and hair care. Everything is completely organic and not tested on animals. In my opinion it’s very important that a product doesn’t contain toxic ingredients and that no animals are harmed in the production.

Now let’s get started with the review.

You ready?

First up, the goodies I tested from the lavender line. The handcream is for sure one of the best I ever had. What I always hate about most handcreams is the fact that you can’t use your hands for like at least 5 minutes after applying the product. Problem solved with this one. The cream is absorbed by the skin almost instantly. Very handy if you’ve got no time to spare in the morning like me. And it smells soooo good. The strong lavender scent takes me straight to the Provence. Same goes for the body oil. Next to the terrific odeur it makes my legs smooth and shiny. Exactly what I want now it’s spring and the weather is getting better.

From the coconut line I recieved a hairoil and a bodyscrub. The scrub is perfect to use before selftanning. It makes my skin so soft and it feels very clean which makes it a lot more easy to selftan without staines. About the hairoil…I have frizzy hair so I style it a lot which makes it look dry. I have the impression that since I’ve been using the oil my hair looks healthier, check less dry without making it greasy. Gotta love that.

Conclusion: Urtekram made me a happy kiddo.

Thanks for reading. If you’ve got questions please shoot.

Lesara

Hello there!

Today, I want to introduce Lesara to you guys. This trendy brand asked me to work together and after taking a look at their website it was impossible to say no.

Lesara offers the latest fashion & lifestyle hypes to their costumers. I got to choose 2 items from their collection. Wanne know what I picked? Check it out below…

The first item I picked is this pretty white lace flowerdress. I styled it with fishnets and badass boots from Jessica Buurman (because you don’t always have to wear heels under a dress right?). My black bikerjack finishes this look completely but it’s not on the picture so you sweethearts can get a good look at the dress.

The second piece of clothing is a fancy black culotte pants. A culotte pants was on my wishlist for quite a while but it’s an item that’s a little bit more difficult to combine (at least to me) so it kinda took me a while to find something that works. How do you think I did? In my opinion these Zara platform sneakers and my cropped H&M puffercoat are a great way to wear the culotte pants in a casual way. But off course you can also wear pumps and a blazer if you want to go for a classy look.

I’m really happy with the quality of the clothes I received so I advise you to go check out the wintersales. I’m sure you’ll find a lot of things you really really like, if not love.

Did you already know Lesara? Are you going to check it out after reading my blogpost? Looking forward to hear from you!

My X-mas wishlist with Zaful ✰

Let me talk about wishlists. I always make them.

I’m a person that loves to organize and plan things. I like to think in advance about what I want to purchase. It makes me feel like I’m in control (and which fashion enthusiast girl doesn’t need a little bit of control right?).

My wishlists help me to buy the items I really need, can easily combine with other pieces in my wardrobe and avoid bad buys. Off course the purpose remains to mark down as many wanted items as possible. What can I say. You’re a shopaholic or you’re not!

Christmas for me is about having quality time with family and people you love. But good food and presents make it even better can we agree? So I’ve made a wishlist. For Christmas. Because I’m into making lists but also because my family expects me to give them some pointers.

Are you ready for my list of wannehaves?

The Grand Bloggers Dinner 2017

So here it goes. My first blogpost. Been thinking about writing for ages but never found the courage to get started. Now that I finally have I want to share with you … ‘drumruffles’ The Grand Bloggers Diner 2017.

I got the invitation in my mailbox and I was like whuuuuut a 5- course meal in a Hilton hotel. I can’t miss out on this one. So I decided to go and asked if I could bring a friend. (Not many of you know this but I can be pretty shy when I have to walk into a crowd of unknown people alone).

So november 3rd I got in my car direction Brussels where the event would take place. They told me I could park my car at parking Grand Place and take the elevator straight to the Hilton Hotel. The three elevators I found were out of order (just my luck) and I was already quite late so I decided to go outdoors and leave the parking.Turned out to be not my best idea. I wandered around like 30 minutes because Google Maps was freaking out (check: letting me walk in circles).

As I eventually arrived, fashionably late… I had missed the reception. After a quick picture…on which I look like hell off course because I had been running 30 minutes on high heels trying to find my way we were leaded to the dining room.

They showed us our table and oh my god, everything looked so fancy. The room was perfect as well as the tablesetting. Gold details everywhere (even on the mini menu we got) and a mini bonbon perfume from Victor & Rolf  as the cherry on the pie.

And then there was the food… Best I ever ate. No kidding! Normally I don’t eat  mushrooms but I just had to give it a try because the dish was looking so yummy. Guess what…I ate it all including the mushrooms. It really was that good! Oh and did I already tell you…all the courses were served with drinks that matched the dish perfectly.

I enjoyed everything so much…the live music during dinner, the food, the people,…Definately worth mentioning…I’ve met so many lovely people. I’m extremely gratefull for what Instagram has done for me the past year. I’m getting so much chances. Discovering new places and things but most important meeting people with similar intrests.

To top it all off,  we received two goodiebags with loads of yummy foods and drinks to try at home.                                       

Thank you Mr. Goodiebag for having me. And off course Sparcolruytgroup for providing all the ingredients for our delicious meal as well as the Hilton Brussels Grand Place for the magnificent location.

It was an amazing experience and I’m already looking forward to next years edition.
