How I take care of long hair

The Hague
take care of long hair

I love, love, love having long hair for a number of reasons. The main reason is that it makes me feel like me. I’ve almost always had long hair. And yes, the few times I did cut it off, I quickly regretted it. My long hair is part of my signature style and it’s my safety blanket. Whenever I suffer from allergies or eczema, I can use my hair to hide it. Besides that, I also think long[...]

these songs changed my life

Aaah! I’ve been trying to write an article about something interesting and very valuable for you. I just can’t do it today. I tried, I really freaking tried. For some context: I’m having a really bad week and I feel super uninspired. And then five minutes later I do feel very inspired, but I can’t get the words on my digital paper. FRUSTRATING! Therefor I thought I would share som[...]

How to become an event planner

The Hague

Last year I shared a day in my life as an event planner. A lot of people love that video and want to know more. I totally get it, because working as an event planner is really fun. I thought it would be a good idea to share everything I know on how to become an event planner. In the Netherlands there are one or two event planner schools, and some homeschool options. You don’t really nee[...]

A letter to my future husband

future husband

In honor of writing things into existence: Dear future husband… You’re late! To be honest, I thought you’d be here by now. I thought we would be living in a really nice house with big windows. Because I like light and airy spaces, and you know that. And even though you mess up the floor every time you walk in with our cute dogs, we still have white floors. Thank god you know how[...]

My favorite thrift shopping tips

thrift shopping tips

Thrifting is a normal thing in my family. My mother grew up in a poor family and my father grew up with parents who never threw anything away. Thrifting often was a necessity, as there simply was no money to buy things for the full price. My parents worked very hard to create a higher income and thus they don’t have to thrift anymore. But we all still do, simple because we love it and t[...]

MAC Studio fix sculpt and shape contour palette review

MAC studio fix sculpt and shape contour palette

I love me some contour powder but the right color for my skin tone is hard to find. I’ve been using a shaping powder by Inglot for years now and the color is perfect. However, it’s been hard to get my hands on it. I also like to try new things, so I decided to buy the MAC studio fix sculpt and shape contour palette. Yes, that’s an unnecessary long name for a contour palette. But the[...]

Gym anxiety during my fitness workout

The Hague

Oh yeah, I’m back with a fitness vlog. I took about six to seven months of from working out. I had a lot to handle in my personal life and my health wasn’t doing so well. I kept pushing myself to go back to the gym every week, only to get sick a few days after. I knew something had to give and I decided to be smart. I took a big break from going to gym and I let my body rest. It was a[...]

I finally found the perfect black blazer and I am very much in love with it. I saw it on the H&M website in December and I immediately knew it was the one. I’ve been looking for a long black blazer for ages and I had to get it. It was sold out in size 38 for a long time, but I managed to snatch one up eventually (this is an alternative blazer). This long black blazer is everything![...]

minimalism and money

Money and minimalism, where to start? Well, I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately. Mainly because I want to enjoy my money, but also stash away enough to take care of myself. I’m basically obsessed with money for all the right reasons. Are there right reasons when it comes to money? In my opinion, yes! Money is something you can use to get to where you want or need to be. Instead o[...]

Intermittent fasting weight loss: Just stop eating

The Hague
intermittent fasting

I haven’t been fully Keto in 2019 and I missed it a lot. But sometimes life takes you into another direction and I chose to put the focus on my mental health. I found it hard to do two things at the same time while dealing with my brain. I left working out and eating Keto for when I felt like it. To be honest, I didn’t feel like it at all. I resorted to intermittent fasting a lot. Itâ[...]

I’ve been trying to write a specific article for a while now, but it hasn’t worked out. I want to do it right and really drive my point across.

It’s been a while since I’ve wrote one, but I love creating them because I feel like it helps me form a bond with you. So here’s me[...]

Vlog 148: Organizing my life and minimalist kitchen

Good morning, and I really mean good morning! Because I’m writing this at 06.20 am and it feels way too early to be blogging right now. But I’ve been up really late to work on the website for my agency, which is getting a (forced) make-over. Apparently, the website theme I was using for my blog and my agency has been discontinued. So I needed to act quick yesterday and restyle everyth[...]

My first bullet journal

My first bullet journal

I wrote about my love for journaling a few weeks ago. Now I’m back with an article on my first bullet journal. I’ve always written on whatever I could find. I currently have about four notebooks in my house and I was writing in all of them. The result: My story scattered across many pages in four notebooks, not handy. That’s why I decided to look into the whole bullet journal concep[...]
