We Are Inspired: SS14 Mood board

With the end of February in sight and the sun popping up every now and then, yours truly is slowly starting to think about spring and summer. Over the past couple of weeks, I started pinning like crazy and thought I'd share some of my spring/summer mood board with you guys. Key words are 90's, denim, flowers, pink, dark colors, bare legs, chunky shoes, hats, sneakers... 

May you feel as inspired as I'm feeling on this particular lovely Sunday afternoon!
Oh, and spring, will you hurry up already? Thanks!  



























Enjoy your Sunday!

I laughed so hard with this picture of Full House's Deejay.

Button, Baby

A few months ago, my sister Kathleen got a little bit obsessed with buttons. It all started with a dress with buttons she was not particularly fond of, and therefore she altered it by replacing the fugly buttons with new, golden buttons. And that was really the start of her buttonesque journey which she's still pursuing at the moment. Although we mock her a little bit when she's thrifting for buttons on flea markets or when she's sitting on the couch underneath a blanket surrounded by her boxes of buttons, I have to admit it is actually a pretty cool idea. Buttons can really spice up some garments that would otherwise be quite blah. For instance, my sister took a very standard, very H&M black cardigan and accessorized it with buttons of all sizes and all colors. 


But that really wasn't the end of it all, because after decorating clothes, she decided to create jewelry with buttons. Earrings, rings, hair pins... Ain't no stopping her! Let me just end with this, I am a big fan and I cannot wait to (finally) receive my first handmade button jewel. Hint: I am in love with the ring I'm wearing in the final picture. I did try to steal it away from my sister, but unfortunately I failed miserably. Sad. 


P.S.: The song 'Whistle Baby' got stuck in my head because of the title of this blog post. Damn you, Flo Rida!
