Outfit

Today was a rainy day
So I waited for a dry moment, went out and took these pictures.

(Fake) leather legging, white top under a jeans blouse, Aztec-print shoes, a black floral scarf and a few jewels. I call it streetstyle, photographed around the woods.




 A few trees had to be hacked because otherwise the trees wouldn't have enough space to grow, they said.



From the Sacha store, you can find them here.



Do you like my outfit?

See you soon!

Christmas clothing

Christmas has passed, Santa is gone home and your wallet is probably empty.
But that is not what Christmas is about,
Love, that is what it is about. 
I made a delicious seven courses diner with my mom and we enjoyed it with the family. I had a really good time, hope you had one as well!

But Christmas is as well about the way you dress, right?
I want to show you what my Christmas outfit looked like.

I chose a classic but modern outfit. The print of the dress is typical for the winter, the chic dress combined with the dotted thighs create an elegant, yet not too chic, look. I decided to wear gold accessorizes instead of silver. I matched my outfit with red nails, with a gold detail, and red lips. I chose the classic look by picking eye-liner and making a bold line.
 
red nails, red lips

my necklace is a gold dalmatian, isn't it cute?

Recipe: Mugcake!

Hello there,

You must have heard about this really simple but very delicious recipe before, but it is such a great thing that I will tell you about it as well!
It's an ideal recipe if you want to bake something but do not have the time to bake a whole pie, if you want something more special than a cookie, or if you don't want to share it with your family. ;)
The Mugcake!
This recipe of the mugcake will not turn into a brownie, it's not a sticky one but it's very light, though filling.

Okay, let's start by collecting all the necessary ingredients:

You use a teaspoon, tablespoon, fork and a mug. (Preferably a huge one.)
- 3 Tbls. (tablespoon) flour
- 2 Tsp. (teaspoon) baking powder
- 5 Tbls. sugar
- 2 Tbls. cocoa
- 1 egg
- 3 Tbls. milk
- 3,5 Tbls. liquid butter (You can easily melt the butter in the microwave.)
- 4 blocks of pure chocolate, chopped into patches.


1: First you blend the flour, baking powder, sugar and cocoa in the mug. I used a fork to stir because that went easier than with a spoon.
2: Now you have to add the egg and blend it until there are no more pieces and loose powder left.
3: Add the milk and liquid butter and stir again, you can stop stirring if it looks like a smooth, solid batter.
4: Mingle the chocolate patches through the batter.
5: The mugcake is ready to bake, place it in the microwave for 3 minutes on the highest. (This was 900 Watt for my microwave.)



Before you fall upon your cake you have to test if it's done: stick a cocktail pick into the cake, if it comes out clean it's done, if not then you need to bake it a bit longer in the microwave.

My mugcake had more chocolate patches on the bottom and they were still melted, so it tasted even more delicious!

Before I forget to warn you:
- It is possible that your mugcake floods, (mine flood extremely) that is no problem and the cake will still be very delicious. You only have to make sure you clean the microwave after baking. ;)
- The mugcake is very filling! it's not a little snack so I advice you to not bake it directly before/after a meal or before you sport. But when you bake it at the right moment, it will be sooo yummy!


Bon Appétit!

Motivating sentences

I want to share a piece of my life with you,
It's about motivations and philosophies I live by.

I read a lot of quotes and motivations on sites such as Tumblr and WeHeartIt, (you could as well get your motivations there).

Here are some which really fit my lifestyle:

I am convinced that dreams keep life going, a dream is that what we all need as reason to live for. No matter how "impossible" your dream is.
What brings me to the next one:
Keep your beautiful head up and keep going because you can do it! It is possible!

There are some moments when I really believe in: "The less you care, the happier you'll be".
But this is a risky one, because you must definitely not stop caring/care less at all points. If you care less about your friends could that escalate quickly into a really sticky situation where your friends are disappointed in you. (And that won't make you happier, I guess.)
But sometimes caring a little bit less about things, such as school or a small argument with your family, can be great. (And that will make you feel happier.)

My advice for you is to look up We Heart It and search some quotes or other motivating sentences, I like them very much because I can relate to them, especially those which I wouldn't have said myself.
Like this one:
Yes, it's damn true.
Reading these sentences/quotes can make me feel better, give really good advice or make me conscious of my luck, what I sometimes forget to be thankful for. (For example luck in health and wealth.)


If you want to read these sentences you can as well check my collection 'quotes', click HERE to go there.
You probably get to know me a little better by reading it, haha!

I hope this made you conscious of the amount of motivating and inspiring things in life. :)

See you soon!
