Outfit of the day: Easter brunch

This past sunday, my parents threw a brunch for the entire family on my father's side. About thirty people were to be expected and my mom had gone in her berserk mode and fixed up an incredible brunch. She had bought, prepared, baked and cooked enough food for an entire army and boy, did I eat a lot! Don't worry though, in the end she packed up everything and gave it to anyone who was interested. Since the weather was going to be nice (Belgium nice, I mean by that - 18°C/64°F) and the sun came peeping through the clouds during the afternoon, I was excited to wear something spring-y. Since I have been anxious to FINALLY wear my white lace blazer, I went with this look:

Leather top: Primark

Blazer: Primark

Pants: H&M

Necklace: H&M

Shoes: Torfs by Flair

Blue bag: vintage

One thing I immediately want to add is: Yes, I know I could look thinner in something like a girly A-line summer dress or skirt, but I love this outfit and don't care that you're able to see my curves. I've been trying to eat healthier and work out once in a while when I find the time and though I have to admit I could do a lot better, I am happy with the way I look. Though, when I find the time, I do want to lose some kilos. 

With this outfit I feel like I'm supporting the lace trend, the capri pant trend, the printed pant trend and the leather trend for this spring. I feel good in it and think it's casual and chic at the same time. 

I hope you liked this outfit!

Spring fashion haul: Graphic prints

Another spring trend I went crazy for, were the graphic prints. You can't imagine how many pairs of graphic pants I tried on, but sadly they look like pyjama bottoms on me. Recently, my mom showed me a pair of pants she got from H&M. I liked it a lot and weeks later, when we were at H&M together, she pushed me to try on the same pair of pants. Admittedly, I tried it on, convinced that I would look like a clown. I was in utter surprise when I saw this pair of pants and fell in love. And I'm not ashamed to say that I indeed have some clothes the same as my mother! It's nothing to be ashamed of!

I love the cute, but yet modern print of this pair. Because of the cool marine blue color, the white dots don't remind people of an easter egg, which was a fear of mine. I usually fold over the end and wear my blue pumps underneath, which makes me look sophisticated but comfy. Love it. The picture doesn't do it justice.

The next item I purchased back in november, desperately wanting something that was chic and to add something to my closet with a graphic print. It's from Primark and the sides are leather strips, which I adore. It has a nice peplum bottom, which is beautiful for my fuller figure.

An other H&M-item I succumbed to, was this H&M jacket. The print has dark blue, marine blue, white and red in it. It's not meant to wear it closed, it's just supposed to BE, you know. That's what I love about it. The sidepieces in the front of the jacket have a special design and flows on my body-shape like a Valentino-dress. Need I say more.

Last but not least, I got this top from the Conscious collection from H&M. I actually wanted the dress version, but sadly, it didn't suit my body at all (Let's just say my behind looked huge). This top suited me much better and had me falling in love with the beautiful print that makes me feel like I am on an exotic holiday.

These three pieces are probably the three clothing items that I have been most obsessed with these last months!
