Pastel Outerwear

If you read any other Belgian blogs, I'm sure you're already sick and tired of us nagging about the awful weather. But the last two weeks have literally been rain non stop, and it's getting me down! Of course it doesn't help that the temperatures  are very low for the time of year, and that I'm basically cooped up working on my master's thesis 90% of the time instead of, uhm, enjoying spring. Not that there's much spring to enjoy DAMNIT

But I'm a positive person. So when I COULD stop at the nagging part I just typed up, I don't! In fact, the crap weather inspires me. That's right, I'm one of those very annoying Amélie Poulain type girls who still manage to find the rainbow behind the clouds. Except for the fact that Amélie is all sweetness and light while I'm more sour and bite, but that's just my style yo. Don't hold it against me.

To get to the point: these grey days of semi-spring SCREAM for pops of color. I'm sick of wearing muted, dark shades for months on end. And what better way to add some punch and whimsy to your outfit than by wearing a pretty, pastel coat? I spent a study break on etsy gathering some options. I faved every one of these coats (and more!), so if you want to buy one you can find them through my etsy faves page!

And my ultimate faves:

SWOONSVILLE! I'm actually contemplating buying one of these, but I'll stay strong until I can't wait any longer. Not convinced?

Hanneli, shall I compare thee to cotton candy? SO FLUFFY <3
