de maandag is bij de meeste mensen niet favoriet. gelukkig heb ik er zelf geen moeite mee. ik vind het heerlijk om een nieuwe week te beginnen waarin ik eindelijk aan de slag kan gaan met alle ideeën die ik in het weekend had. voor degene die er wel degelijk moeite mee heeft en voor wie een zetje in de goede richting nodig heeft, heb ik twee motiverende wallpapers gemaakt. hier onder te downloaden. maak er een mooie week van!

{ perfect weather for hot cocoa }

2014 is nearly over and january 1 is fast approaching. this year seems to have gone by so fast! as one year ends and another begins i like to look back at the goals i set at the start of the year. most of the goals have been met, some of them almost. looking back it has been a great year both personal and professional.

{ new postcard added to collection }
last weekend we've had another 'building dinner'. time to relax, eat, drink and catch up. many of us are business owners. and because of this and the majority of the group working in the music- & entertainment industry we often [tend to] work on weekends. this makes it quite challenging to set a dinner date regularly, but makes it more special everytime we do get together. have a great weekend!

LIKES AND NEEDS

Wednesday, October 1, 2014


a few years ago i called a halt to my shopping. i didn't like how much money and time i was spending on shopping for clothes?! cleaned out my closet. organized my wardrobe and realized i really did have everything i need. there was nothing missing, except for the perfect lbd [little black dress] which i still haven't found, but than again till this day don't miss. and so i decided no more shopping clothes and accessories for six months!

{ welcome to deventer }
after this weekend i'm starting on my fourth week of running. i'm training according a schedule to slowly improve my stamina. i'm really enjoying it and it's even turned out to be something i'm looking forward to. the goal at the moment is to be able to run thirty minutes non-stop. i know this isn't much but trust me, for me it's a great start. hope you have a great weekend!

fall is for knits. and because i don't like wearing jackets that much, a cardigan is a great alternative. with chilly mornings, sunny afternoons and evenings cooling down faster, this oversized cardigan comes in handy. paired with a little shimmer and cool kicks, this is one comfy outfit.

{ early morning drive into the sun rise }

sometimes i'm surprised at how much a person can do in seven days. or twenty-four hours for that matter. you know the feeling of thinking your just being lazy?

{meeting at the wedding venue}
my fiancé and i had a conversation about the difference between male and female. in particular about being practical. i think we women are quick to get emotionally involved in just about everything, while most men don't and thus can see things more clear. men just handle with things because they need to be handled. plain and simple.
