I love shops where it's not only about products, but also about styling and creating a unique setting. And when shop owners decide to add some greens… you know I'm in 😉 Some of my favorites include HAY House in Copenhagen and La Maison Pernoise in the Provence, but this weekend I discovered a new Read article…

The colors of Antwerp
Our weekend in Antwerp was cold and foggy but also rather colorful!

Weekend inspiration #10
In just weeks temperatures dropped from 25°C in Cannes (above) to 0°C at home today. Time for a warm cozy ski suit, like this awesome one by Moncler x Mary Katrantzou!
Sistermail 5
My sister decided to send me more snail mail and told me I should write about it on my blog. So I will! Always listen to your little sister!

Not far from where we were married, located on the most beautiful part of the coast, lays this botanical garden focused on Mediterranean species.

Flamingo fever
There was one reason why I wanted to visit the Camargue region during our stay in the South of France: the color pink. Pink flamingos and pink salt flats.

Butternut squash spice cake
When in Marseille a few weeks ago, I stole one of these Halloween posters announcing the local Trick or Treat festival. It was designed by Sylvain Havec, a French illustrator. I love the clever use of neon orange and the hilarious illustration. Perfect or our kitchen door 😉 Not for too long though, because you Read article…
