Acne Mape jacket, Isabel Marant Ojima top, HM (maternity) jeans, Chloé slides

Zebra coloured walls of Maastricht a couple of weeks ago. Possibly in the most haphazard way. I've been living in these Chloé slides ever since. But I'm sure you can tell. Most importantly though, the favourite of the season being that Isabel Marant 'cupcake' number providing just enough room for my ever growing belly yet making things different just the right amount within the confines of an all black outfit. And here I was... all that time thinking that I'm allergic to ruffles or anything even remotely resembling a marshmallow. Isabel Marant has taken the whole concept to the level of oh so appropriate. I am even contemplating a tiny white lace skirt for the sunny season ahead. Endless amount of possible styling options is something I just cannot pass on.

Vasilieva coat and bag, Levi's denim cut off into skirt, Chloé slides, Louis Vuitton sunglasses

Oostende blues... perfectly matching the whole setting. Not on purpose, but mostly to shield myself from the wind yet still having just enough exposure to the sun. Loving the idea of distressed vintage denim with that pair of Chloé slides. Just not boring enough for a day at the sea. But comfort will probably classify as a priority here, especially with the current size of my belly. I have by now morphed into a person complaining about long walks and uncomfortable (read any) footwear. But all in all I'm doing pretty well.

Have a good weekend!

behind the scenes | new vasilieva summer everything

photos by Delphine

Behind the scenes with Oona Smet, Nanja Massy, Delphine Casier and Arina Yalaletdinova for SS'14 shoot. I've been running super late with everything design related this time around, but at least my baby is growing slowly but surely and is already 29 weeks. We shot the whole lot last Sunday and I'm hoping to be able to share the final pictures with you at the beginning of next week. Fully determined to have the website updated with all things Summer and all things fresh in literally no time. Meanwhile, if your curiosity is taking the best of you pass by my studio in Brussels (rue des Chartreux, 48b) and get a closer look. I'd love to meet you.

things that come in twos

Zara leather slip-ons, HM scalloped bikini

High street acquisitions of the month! I love another (super accessible) variation of my Marysia Swim scalloped number all nicely put together by HM. It always feels like having multiple versions of your wardrobe staples keeps you on track with whatever your styling preferences are. Get as many editions as possible of what you love the most! And of course there is a new pair of mint candy from Zara. These with everything black (for while it is still chilly in mid April) or a pair of tiny cropped vintage Levis' will do justice to any outfit. Flat for one, but interesting enough to keep things casually appealing on a different level.

Both in stores now.

sunday somewhere

Sunday Somewhere Matahari sunglasses... that case when clip-ons are making things awesome. Times two. It's like having an ever present option of nerdiness available at any time.
