It’s that time of the year once again; time for a 2022 recap. I kind of made it a tradition already. As the year is ending, I love to look back and take stock of my work and personal life; what I enjoyed, what I learned, and what I was excited about. Part of it I always do it on […]
I take my Christmas gifting duty seriously. I absolutely love gifting to my loved ones and of course, every year I spend hours doing research for getting the perfect gift(s) for the Mr. I usually end up reading through dozens of gift guides for men every year, and I always end up thinking how predictable they are and how little […]
Around this time of the year, I love to sit down and curate a small list of presents and this year I share that in the holiday gift guide for her 2022 edition. I love to use it as inspiration for my own Christmas shopping and also to revisit things on my wishlist. As usual, I thought it might be nice to […]
I’ve recently shared a review of the Celine Sangle Bucket Bag that I got earlier this year, and I realized I never shared a review of my very first luxury bag, my beloved LV NéoNoé. Funnily enough, it’s also a bucket-style bag, however, quite different from the Celine Sangle. I bought it in June 2020 – here you can read more about […]
I recently shared a post detailing my career journey. Where I started and where I am currently but also all the steps I took in between. I made some good decisions along the way, while some others were probably not the best. Looking back, however, I wanted to share a few key lessons and tips from my career journey that […]
I am a little nosy and I absolutely love it when I come across a “What’s in my work bag” type of post, video, reel etc… so I thought I would (finally) do one as well. I try and keep my bags rather light, but of course, it does not always work out. Especially when going to work, I end […]
I’ve been working a full-time office job for over seven years. During this time I’ve worked in three different companies, changed industries and took a pay cut twice, and did a pretty major career change once. Some things I’ve learned, some things I probably haven’t yet, and I thought I would share a bit more about where I started and […]
I love a good coat and this weekend I felt inspired to browse some shops in search of the perfect coat. Last year I bought a few coats that I am really happy with, however I also have an eye on adding a couple more to my wardrobe, to complete the collection. I want to say that I have a […]
I’ve recently added the Celine Sangle Bucket Bag to my bag collection, as the perfect work bag for my current lifestyle. I commute by bike and I needed something luxe but also practical enough to fit a laptop + other work essentials, and to also fit into my bike basket, without me worrying too much that it might scratch or lose shape. […]
I did quite some decluttering this year when it comes to my wardrobe, and I am really proud of it. I also shopped a little throughout the year, I will not deny it, especially while in Spain as it was sales time. Most, if not all pieces were solid options though that have a place in my wardrobe. With fall around […]
I never expected it but having a Kindle completely changed my reading habits. I’ve read a total of 18 books this year, out of which 17 were on the Kindle. For comparison, in the last few years I’ve averaged somewhere around 10 books/year. So receiving a Kindle as a birthday present from the Mr. back in January was definitely a […]
I wanted to share this pink suit on the blog, because it’s been bringing me so much joy to wear it this summer and I am very pleased to have added it to my wardrobe. I got this suit at Zara during one of the visits to Spain, back in May and I did not get the chance to wear […]
I have to admit that lately I shopped a little. I took full advantage of the sales while in Spain, and I have to say that I (think) I bought quite a few good pieces. Now, some of them were on sales – and I think they were very good choices even though not all necessarily “needed” – while some […]
As shared in the part 1 of this series, looking back at the last 6 months, I thought I would reflect on what has been important during my first few months on the job and share some tips that can help you too. There is one important thing to achieve during your first 3-6 months at a new job, and that […]
Life as a Product Manager is good so far. Since joining in my new role and company, I’ve been spending a lot of time learning about the business, the market, the products, the users, the processes and really everything that comes with a new company and a new role. Already before starting out, I built a pretty hefty list of […]
