My story about being a mother… 5 years ago I became a mother for the first time. James was born on the second of January, while friends and family were recovering from New Years eve, I was struggling through the biggest thing in my life thus far: Giving birth. When my water broke – which really did happen, it’s not just a thing from the movies – we didn’t tell anyone yet, we first wanted to see if it was really going to happen then. But as all mothers know, when that happens, it kind of really starts. Not knowing what was going to come, I was still smiling…
And I couldn’t agree more. Shoes are everything. If I had to pick one favorite thing in my wardrobe, it would be a pair of shoes. In fact, it would be my new Attico crystal embellished mules I’m wearing in today’s post. Statement pieces to perfect…
We all have our routines and we love them. We thrive by them. For me, routines are vital and if they continually slip—especially now that I have a family to look after—I get stressed, depressed, and unhappy. It’s simply impossible to have a full-time job and be a mother if I don’t follow our happy military family routine.
There’s five trends that are dominating my Spring/Summer wardrobe: first of all – obviously – the “Festival-trend” – did any of you go to the first Coachella weekend? How was it! – with some sophisticated boho, showing not too much skin, but lots of colors and patterns, and of course happy strappy sandals.

Back from Costa Rica and holding on to those holiday vibes so badly! Although more in Positano-ways than the Costa Rican… Or in fact, maybe that headband does add a little of that Central American beauty. Because oh boy, did I fall in love with that country. Even though we were there only for a couple of days, it was enough to completely go mad for it! But… we are back, and that means back to work. Nothing bad about that, I luckily still LOVE – almost – every single bit of it, but as always after a vacation, there SO MUCH work to do!! The best part about that is shooting new looks, Spring looks to be precise. And kicking of with a perfect sunny spring office look!
