__entre chien et loup__

spring is my favorite season
from brussels to tokyo and even here in los angeles, this is the time i can wear a knit sweater and sandals
in the same outfit ....
the days get hot and then cool again, from shade to sun it's like visiting two season in one step
i love that, it makes my imagination for styling a lot more stressed
i keep cold colors, and mix mesh with wool

as you can see i am still in a momochromatic mood
i keep finding items with matching colors in my closet, and then can't resist to wear it together
corduroy baby doll shorts and one of my absolute favorite garment, my fluffy cotton blouse by cos
half on my way to work, i realised that what i was wearing could look like a pajamas in some place in the world, like in my native belgium
fortunately i spent some time in tokyo and forgot all the rules
so here i am, happy to spend the day at work in pajamas 

still no accessories really ... i swear i'll work on that!

__meeting__

i love when extremes meet, not only black with white
but also in this case, a very basic tee with a pencil knee long skirt
i love to mix strong pieces like these
and then style come to a very simple, pure outfit
the statement in this outfit are the shoes, gold with satin toe

__sans accessoires__

black and navy is one of my favorite mix
i cropped this american apparel turtleneck top 
i love those transitional time that allows you to wear turtleneck, crop and long sleeves at the same time
my outfit is minimal as often recently
i often think to accessorize more, and then feel like i am losing balance

i just took a short trip to the desert, just the time to refresh
i less than 2 hours from LA you can be in the middle of nowhere
i love that
all black for the occasion, it's not often but feels good sometimes

__to be one__

i am in a cold mood for colors
pale blue meeting grey, nude, white 
i love to find two items in my closet that share the exact same color
especially when this is a color as unique as martini blue
i wanted that cardigan and shorts to be one, and chose that nude bodysuit to be one with my skin

__printed__

i love to print on t-shirts

we have the print studio on the 2nd floor of the american apparel factory 

and i started to print some fun images on t-shirts

but now it is a real obsession, after one, i already think about what will be the next

here is the house p by oab ferrater associados, i wanted to wear it in a simple outfit

leather skirt, cold colors and no accessories

__like muji__

 

it is pretty rare to find long uniform skirts
this one is full pleated and have a simple white grid on a deep night navy
the fabric somehow reminds me the one muji used to sell
a few years ago when i was living in tokyo i loved to shop at muji, for clothes and for everything else
it is one more thing that i miss from japan

printed pleated pants are my new love
i am looking everywhere for the perfect ones
american apparel ran this limited edition version 
one of the best item we ever made in my opinion!

at the end, polka dots always work

every year, i feel it's done, i have enough of it 

but then it comes again. usually white and navy, sometimes black and white

i like them small better than large
