How to wear: leather pants

One of my missions to the perfect fall-wardrobe is to find a good pair of well fitted skinny leather pants. Quite easy i thought at first, because they are quite common in the shops. Finds out that it is not that easy for me to find leather pants that fit perfectly and have the texture i have in mind. This week, i tried one at zara that fitted so well, but the texture was so shiney that it reminded me of latex. I really hope i'll find the one someday, it's the perfect wardrobe staple! Any tips where i can spot some?

New in: Sandro green suede bomberjacket

Something unplanned, but my best fall purchase yet by far! I was actually on the hunt for the perfect leather jacket, until i stumbled across this beauty. The pretty green color immediately catched my eye at the store. I tried to made the color on the pictures similar to how it is in real life, but in this case pictures really doesn't do it justice. Can't wait to wear it in a proper outfit!

Off duty

Sometimes i just want to mindlessly throw on something that's comfortable, this is one of those outfits. Just basic, simple and comfy :) It actually really feels like i'm wearing pyjamas, the leggings and oversized knitted sweater truly are lifesavers on my off-duty days! I had a lovely birthday btw! First a cozy dinner with my love, he cooked really delicious wok and bought sushi, my favourite foods! The day after we went to Antwerp to do some shopping. I bought something that wasn't on my list, but i looove it! I'll post some pictures soon :)

Birthdaygirl

I'm turning 23 today! I really think that number doesn't fit me. It's something i have every year. I think i'm mentally stuck at 19, haha :) I would normally be at university today, but we all got an e-mail yesterday that there would be no lessons at all! Pretty awesome birthday present from my university i would say :) So i'm happy that i can spend my birthday at home with my family. Every year i'm so gratefull to have had a year where i'm healthy, happy and loved. Now let me continue eating everything i want today (mostly cake), because the rule is: calories don't count on birthdays! Let's all have a virtual cupcake! xx, Annelies

Recipe: healthy chocolatemilk

 
It's getting colder and colder, hot drink season has arrived! :) I want to share with you my favourite drink i like to drink while watching a serie under a blancket (my daily ritual): a healthy chocolatemilk! It's super simple to make and tastes really good! Here is how you make it: 

You'll only need two ingredients for this: unsweetened soymilk and pure cocoa powder. It's important that the soymilk is unsweetened, so make sure you check to ingredients for sugar. There may not be any additives to the cocoa powder, just 100% pure cocoa powder.

Pour the amount of soymilk you want in a soucepan and heat it up, it doesn't have to boil. It's important to stir the milk regulary.

When your milk is heated up, you can add the cocoa powder. I use one big teaspoon for one big mug of chocolatemilk, but you can add more or less according to your taste :)

Keep on stirring until there are no chunks of cocoa powder left in the milk.

 Pour your concoction in your favourite mug...

...and enjoy! :) xx, Annelies
