I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy

Imagine an afternoon, two friends and a mezzanine. 
Add some sun, a love for Dior and two mini ladies.
There you have it, the perfect Thursday.

Go Mineral

Make a wish. Mine was - amongst others - to let my skin blossom with the spring flowers, as if I was 17 and we had a real spring in Belgium.
Ready? Blow!


I found the way: mineral foundation by Laura Mercier, because being 34 is like being 17 twice, after all. Who would have thought a bit of sand-like powder would make me so proud!

17, twice
and some other stuff
earrings: Gioielleria Burnazzi
scarf: h&m
There's a whole mineral world out there to discover, and if it is as good as what I've already tried, a whole lotta love is on its way.
Find it, try it, love it, make it yours.
