Distracted

I told you guys already that I'm a little bit preoccupied, because lately everything in my life involves houses and home decoration. This is something that plays a very important role in my life since forever, but the hunt for the perfect apartement made me even more obsessed :)

So today I'll be sharing a small amount of pictures that I have stacked in my home-folder on my laptop. Hope you like them!

Do you like looking at inspirational pictures for some home inspiration?

Love,

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.12

Since it's already been a while I decided it was time for another post with some great fashion inspiration.

At first is said that I was going to do these posts every 2 weeks, but I just think it's better to post them whenever I feel like it.

These pictures make me want to go shopping so badly. So look at them at your own risk ;)

This is probably the most amazing sweater I've ever seen. The perfect grey color and that back cleavage is perfect! Love it! 

This great look is part of the newest collection by Alberto Fermani. I've never heard of the brand before, but I really like what I see.

You can't do wrong with a sequined skirt (at least that's my opinion). I love the reflections on the wall.

This is something I'm really going to try myself. The perfect way to pimp some shredded jeans. I feel a DIY-project coming up. 

Shoes and glitters! Do I really need to say more? If I was able to buy these I wouldn't even doubt for a second.

Do you like these pictures? What do you find inspirational at this moment?

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.11

I think you've already guessed by looking at the amount of posts that have been posted on my blog the past week, but I've been very busy this week. I guess I'm still struggling with the combination of work and blogging, especially since the sales are right around the corner (we're busy with the preparations). 

I'm sure I'll get things back on track after a good and long sleep ;) So please forgive my absence on this and on your blogs.

Today's post is filled with beautiful black and white pictures that I've collected over the years. I think that black and white photography has such great power and most of the time I like it more.

The funny thing is that I only picked pictures that are (in some way) related to Paris and I only realised it after I uploaded them. What can I say? I'm in love with this city.

I wish you all a very great weekend!

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.10

Well, it's friday again and I'm glad the weekend is finally starting tonight. It's always so much fun when I don't need to work on a saturday, so I plan to do some nice things and maybe some more shopping.

I decided that from now on these inspiration posts will only appear every 2 weeks. Don't get me wrong, I love searching for pictures that inspire me and I will keep on sharing them with you. But I have a feeling that one of these articles every week is simply too much. Hope you don't mind.

I love this bathroom. The combination of the industrial space and the beautiful green mosaic wall is perfect! Would love to have a bathroom like this one. 

Underwather photography can be so beautiful, here's the perfect example.

You all know by now that France is my absolute favorite country in the world and there isn't a region there that I don't love. Here's a random picture from the Provence, it's so cosy. One day I'll hope to own a house with panels on the windows too. 

I just love this picture, because lavender makes me think back to when I was little. My grandmother always hung some bags filled with dried lavender above our bed. 

I'm ending this post with a song that I really loved when I was a teenager (and actually I still do like it very much), Rain by the Guano Apes. Do you like this song?

I wish you all a very great weekend!

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.9

For today's inspiration post I want to do something different. I decided to let you guys take a little look at how my apartment is looking. I took some pictures of the things I like the most.

I already told you guys before that I'm not that matchy-matchy kind of person when it comes to the decoration of my place. If I like it, I buy it and I'll find a way to make it work. You might discribe my style as messy, but neat. It's a mix of Ikea, thriftstore, fleamarket, gifts and random shops.

Anyway, I really hope you like these shots!

Candles are a must! Simply because they make a house more cosy. I also love scented candles and incense sticks.

Some detailed shots from my bookcase, this one from Ikea. It's also rather messy, but I simply like the way that looks. As you can see it's not only books, but also my Hello Kitty collection, some cups and a Marrocan jar, ... 

On top of the bookcase I have my favorite statue of all times. I bought it at Ikea more than 6 years ago and I still find it so beautiful. The vase is new, bought it last friday and I love the purple color! 

This lamp is very special to me. It's a gift from my sweet grandmother and grandfather. The foot of the lamp is from a fleamarket (guess it runs in the family) and the shade comes from my grandmother's sister who sadly passed away a few years ago.

This still life is what you can find in my kitchen. These jars, tin cans and cups are just too beautiful to put away in a closet. So I decided to stall them out! 

Another still life, this time in the bedroom. The flowers are little lamps and are so cute. This cabinet is the favorite sleeping spot of our cat for the moment :) 

A part of the boyfriend's record collection in combination with some of my stuff. My other favorite lamp, the shade is from Ikea and the foot is another fleamarket find from my grandmother and grandfather.

I hope you guys liked the little peak into my life and apartment. I'm curious to know what you guys think, so please let me know in the comments.

Have a great weekend!

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.8

Today I would like to share some pictures that really have a romantic feeling to them. Lately I'm really into this kind of pictures. Maybe it's because I've been very tired the past few weeks and these pictures make me feel so calm, happy and homy. 

So let's all have a romantic friday and enjoy looking at these photos.

Have a lovely weekend!

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.7

I have so many inspirational pictures on my laptop, but when I'm composing these articles the words don't always come to mind. So for today I'll just let the pictures do most of the talking.

This Dolce & Gabbana Fur Print Skirt has been on my wishlist ever since the first time I saw it. Isn't this a beautiful piece?

I simply love this picture! This one is also hanging in my living room, in a nice golden frame of course :)

Emmanuelle Alt has such an amazing style! I just had to share a picture of her, because she's a great source of inspiration for me.

It's no secret to you guys that I love macaroons, but these are the cutest ones I've ever seen. Hooray for cheeseburger macaroons!

Lately I love to wear my hair in a high bun. I should really try this look with bows and matching nailpolish.

Have a great weekend!

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.6

Well, it's friday again and that means that I get to share some more things that I like, love, want and that inspire me.

To be honest, I wish I was able to post 5 of my own pictures here every week. Unfortunately that isn't possible, but I'm really trying to keep these posts as personal as possible. I love writing these posts and search the internet etc. for inspirational photos, so I really hope you guys like reading them.

This outfit is amazing. It really was love at first sight, I need that cardigan and a jumpsuit similar to this one (too bad I don't have the legs to pull of this look). 

I'm a person who spends a lot of time with the decoration of my home and I love cosiness. This bed isn't mine, but I sure wouldn't mind if it was. Isn't it funny how simple things like christmaslights make a huge difference?

This picture doesn't require a lot of words, I'm sure you guys will love these outfits as much as I do.

A while ago I received these limited edition Coca-Cola Light bottles designed by Karl Lagerfeld and I love them. I'm sad that the everyday bottles aren't this cute and fashionable.

These will be available in Belgium from May 28th at Inno and in June you can buy them at Kreatos and at Ladies@TheMovies.

I thought it would be fun to share a music-video that I really like in these posts from time to time. I'm a huge fan of Gotan Project, I can listen to their music for hours. I picked this video, not only because of the beautiful song, but because I love to see people dance the tango. What do you guys think of this song and movie?

I wish you all a very nice weekend.

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.5

oday's inspiration article is all about sequins! There's nothing I love more than sequins. If there's something shiny in the shops, I immediately get drawn to those pieces (I really can't help myself).

So prepare yourself for some bright and shiny pictures in this post! I really want to go shopping for some more sequined things when I see all these beauties. 

And what about you guys, do you love sequins or not?

Love,

Imelda

Imelda's Inspiration Pt.4

Finally I've found the time to write another article, it was such a busy week for me. 

Wednesday I went to the Joyce Jonathan concert in Brussels and it was amazing! I got the tickets as a birthday gift from my boyfriend and I couldn't be happier with this gift. She's such a good singer, I had a wonderful time.

Yesterday I went to Antwerp (right after work) to visit a few pr agencies. I couldn't make it to all of them, too bad. I'll be posting my favorites in a while.

This is a great 'how to wear a scarf' picture. Must try this soon.

Beautiful drawing that hangs in my livingroom. I forgot the artist, my apologies!

That electric blue pants is awesome. That's one to go on my wishlist (I'm pretty sure these inspiration posts aren't so good for my wishlist).

 Just a beautiful picture that I wanted to share with you guys.

Animal print shoes and cute socks, a killer combination!

I hope you guys liked this post and I wish you all a great weekend!

Love,

Imelda
