Lockdown lookbook

Belgium has started requesting social distancing rules end of February, and has been in lockdown since March 21st. 
This post is basically my outfits from that time 'till well, today (April 20). 
Because why not make a lookbook.
Firstly, there's something I want to say to avoid misunderstandings. 
I am lucky enough that Bert, my husband, is a photography enthusiast with semi-professional equipment and now even his own studio. 
Secondly, there is a field across the street from our house (literally across the street), where no one ever goes. 
Furthermore Bert's family also owns a field (which obviously no one goes on but members of the family, and due to social distancing rules its never than one household at the time). 
Aside from that, we have a pretty alright fence in our garden, and we can go for walks in the local nature preserve and take photos there as well, also 100% respecting social distancing rules as most people tend to avoid the swamp (as it is known for its muddy pathways). 
So every single photo you see here has been made 100% following the Covid-19 social rules.
