Working that athleisure in the city
While I’m known to be a dressy girl whenever I hit the streets, I do like to be comfy if I have to run a few errands. That’s exactly what I did last Monday in my hometown. Because I initially planned to cycle to the city, so I could also get my exercise for that day, I wanted to wear something that was both suited for this activity and walking down the streets. Continue reading “Working that athleisure in the city”
Sunday breakfast indulgence with homemade pancakes

It’s okay to enjoy your food without constantly over thinking it. Trust me. Continue reading “Sunday breakfast indulgence with homemade pancakes”

Rochelle took it to Paramaribo for latest music video
Rochelle who? If you’re into that dance music scene you’ll know exactly who I’m talking about. You know, that bad ass looking girl who was running the charts with Yellow Claw back in 2013/2014 with that dope single Shotgun. Yeah, it now rings a bell doesn’t it? Thought so.

#WBD: Getting the L’Oréal steampod treatment
Lately you guys have seen my rocking it straight on my instagram and here on the blog. You know what I’m talking about. About two and a half weeks ago I felt like changing up my hairdo for the last winter weeks, so I decided to trade in my natural curls for straight hair. Keeping my curls in place is a task that takes time and I didn’t feel like doing that these days. It was time for something easier that involves less time styling my hair. Straightening it.
