Beauty | Inspiration - Short Hair Don't Care

Well hi !

Sooooooo, I've had my long hair for about four years now and that's also about the time it took me to get it this long BUT I'm kind of getting tired of it. Sooooo I've decided that this is going to be my last week of long hair for a while. On Saturday I am going to the hairdressers to get a hell of a lot of hair chopped of and I'm going to get a semi long bob. However I'm going to add the ombre back in, because I loved the look of that on me and I don't want to lose that too (One thing at a time !).

I'm training myself in making life less difficult, because I have quite a big tendency to do that. So my mantra for this one is : It's only hair it'll grow back ... eventually hihi

But yeah, I wanted to show you the pictures, that I'm going to show the hairdressers to base my haircut on, to keep you updated. I'll definitely post photos of my new haircut once it's done, so keep your eyes peeled for those on Twitter and Instagram on Saturday (you can find the links in the contact section !)

I'll leave you with that !

Love,

Fashion | Inspiration - Dresses

It's that time of the year again ! Weather is getting slightly warmer and sunnier and I am already dreaming about summer, heat and breezy dresses.

During winter I don't really wear a lot of dresses and skirts, because I get cold very quickly and I absolutely hate being cold. But as spring is setting in, I am getting super excited about wearing dresses again ! Right now I still have to layer them, but I kinda of like that too, so yay layering !

I am really liking these more retro-ish dresses with a cute little collar or the more shirt-like ones with very straight lines, as you can witness here above.

Are you guys getting excited for spring already? I am !

Love,

Kelly

Beauty | Inspiration - Hair- Half updo's

No matter what hairtype you have, one way or the other them hairs are going to get in your way. When I'm at school, taking notes in class, I can't have my hair being all over the place. And while I do love ponytails and buns, sometimes I just want to keep my hair down, BUT out of my freaking way ;) I have found myself going towards half updo's on those kind of days and I'm kind of really liking it ! My face is hair free, but I still have the effect of having my hair down.

Right now I'm just clipping away my locks whit a nice hairclip, but I want to give these more special updo's as seen here above a try, being a bit more glamorous and shiz.

If your looking for a good tutorial on a half updo, Zoella recently posted one on here YouTube channel. It's a very pretty and simple updo, it won't take you that much time before leaving for school. I'm going to give this one a try some time soon ;)

Love,

Fashion | Inspiration - Minimalistic Jewellery

While last year I was all over edgy jewellery with a twist, this year minimalstic is my way to go. 

I'm really into clean and subtle designs. Straight lines, simple materials, delicate, ... 

Although I find myself wearing a lot less jewellery than last year, I do still like the sight of a pretty pair of earrings combined with a messy updo or a gorgeous ring combined with a casual outfit. 

Right now, I'm looking for some pretty new rings and some earrings but I'm also on the hunt for some bracelets. What does bother me with these minimalistic design bracelets, is that they aren't that comfortable most of the time and for me that's one of the main points on which to judge clothing/accesories ... So I might post an update soon on what kind of bracelets make a good alternative.

Love,

Kelly

P.S. : Sorry for missing two posting days last week, but I was fighting some germs the whole week and didn't really feel like posting ;)

Beauty | Inspiration - Messy Waves

I have been on the lookout for a new hairstyle, because I found myself wearing the same updo every day. I do love my long ombre-ed hair, but I've become quite out of inspiration with how to style it. Actually I am looking for a quick style that I can manage to do in max 15 mins before leaving for school. 

I stumbled across this style and loved it instantly ! My hair is pretty straight, but the shorter parts, like what's left of my fringe, have a mind of their own and just point every direction. So messy waves seem ideal to me. This look has much of a 'I woke up like diz' vibe, but it looks put together at the same time. 

My best ideas for this look are basically randomly curling sections of hair, big or small, front or back, just very random. Then I would use some sea salt spray to acquire the messy part and then setting it with hairspray.

I'm going to give this a try and report back to you !

Love,

Fashion | Inspiration - Glasses

So I've always had this strange thing with glasses. I don't have very bad vision, but I have a strange desire to wear glasses. I know people with glasses always complain and prefer wearing contacts. But really, I'm jealous of glasses-wearing-people, because they have yet another accessory to play with.

One of the reasons why I love summer, is that you have the sunglasses as an extra accessory. Far too often, I start wearing my pair way too early and hold on to them way too long. I did buy some fake thick black frames with plastic transparent 'glass' last summer, but I stopped wearing them because it's kind of obvious that those are not the real deal.

Nonetheless I wanted to share some glasses inspiration with you guys ! I really like the kind of semi-transparent brownish printed frames, like you can see in the pictures above. In terms of shapes I prefer the shape of the first pair, straight lines but oversized. 

I am actually looking for a pair of fake glasses that look like they're real. So if you guys have any suggestions, please do leave them in the comments below :)

Love,

Kelly

P.S. : Sorry for not posting Lifestyle last week, but my internet was down the whole weekend, so I didn't really have opportunity to post. Scusi !

Beauty | Inspiration - Winged Eyeline

This is going to be a very quick post, since I'm typing this at school, because I'm a bit early to class, unfortunately it was the only moment I could find to write a post before Thursday.

For ages I have envied woman with the skills to beautifully apply winged eyeliner and I still haven't figured the trick out myself. There are three people in particular that I envy the most for their skills : Lauren Conrad, Zoe Sugg and Marzia Bisognin.

I really love a kind of thick line just above the lash line that wings out perfectly towards the brow end (as you can see in the pictures above) and my plan is to practice until it's perfect. I'm going to try different brands, different ways, different poses and I'll report back at you every time.

For my summer make up look I want to create a look with nice and fresh face make up, a soft lip color and for the eyes, just some winged eyeliner and mascara.

Mission started, soldier Geuens signing out !

Love,

Kelly

Fashion | Inspiration - Summer sneakers

It's February and this one is already thinking about spring and summer, well better too soon then too late ey? 

Every summer sine my feet stopped growing, I invest in a good and durable pair of sneakers. Two years ago I bought red high top Converse All Stars, last year I bought white low cut Converse All Stars and this year I'm thinking about buying a pair of Vans. 

I've never owned a pair of Vans sneakers before ! I did own a pair of ballet flats, a short hype when I just started high school. 

The pair(s) that caught my eye were the kind of 'slip in' sneakers, the ones without laces and with elastics on the side. I really like plain black ones with white detailing or the furry variation of these. But surprisingly enough the cheetah printed ones really keep haunting my mind. They could spice up an entire outfit and make every plain summer outfit just a little bit more interesting.

Not sure if I'll be able to find these exact pairs here in Belgium, so I do have a plan B, which are the plain Vans sneakers, with laces, in a burgundy or creme colour.

I'll keep you guys posted on my sneaker hunt ;)

Love,

Kelly

Fashion | Inspiration - Cosy Knit Sweaters

One thing I sure love about Fall/Winter are the cosy sweaters ! I already mentioned my love for sweaters, I know, but see this as my Fall/Winter edition of the sweater post ;)

Layering is my favourite part about these seasons and sweaters/cardigans are ideal for this. My 'style' is all about being cosy and comfortable, rather than all dolled up and not at ease. I'm not going to repeat myself but, sweaters are the perfect piece to either dress up or down. But for more on that, I refer you to my last sweater related post.

Love,

Fashion | Inspiration - Hats

One trend I've been liking very much for fall are hats !

They can give a very elegant and chique touch to an otherwise very casual outfit. My favourite kind of hats are the kind of woollen like textured ones, they look super cosy and they seems so warm !

I'm still a bit unsure about whether I'll give this trend an actual try, but I'm so very tempted. These last few weeks I've been loving adding accessories to my hair (think : bandannas, bows, metallic ponytail rings, beanies, ...) and I'd love to get my hands on a pretty hat to add to the hair department. 

Plus these also seem to come in handy on bad hair and face days since the attention will probably be focused elsewhere, BONUS !

I'll keep you posted on the hat hunting !

Love,

Lifestyle | Inspiration - Interior - Office

Two years ago I moved into my brother's old room at home. I bought all new furniture, repainted the walls and made it my own little appartment. I still love it to pieces, but my tastes have shifted and I'm thinking about painting my walls next summer. That aside, I wanted to share some inspiration with you interiorwise. Ever since last spring I've been really into minimalism and simplicity. Not only in terms of interior, but in terms of almost everything. I never was the girl for bright bold colours, but I've had my stages of red, blue and green fever.
My favourite colours right now are black, white and brown; but sometimes I'll add in a little blue or burgundy.

Here above you can see what kind of decor has been inspiring me for the office section of my room. I do love the idea of the first two pictures to have a lot of photos as a kind of moodboard around your desk. The rest is just very minimalistic and simple. They have the exact colours and sphere I'm looking for.

Love,
Kelly
