In 3 weeks time from now, Mr. C and I will get the keys to our new house.
<br />I already wanted to do something else with the blog - changing the style and it's subjects. So now comes a great opportunity to (re)start a new blog.
<br />Still thinking hard about<a href="http://littlegirlwithhernosepressed2theglass.blogspot.com/"> the new blog</a> title but I might have found something, whilst reading this great book by Elizabeth Bard. Lunch in Paris is a book about a new beginning and somewhere between the lines, I found this 4 word nickname Elizabeth gave lovingly to her (then) future husband. I might change it into a more feminine title, to make it sound better for me and the things I wanna write about.
<br />
<br />{OoO}
<br />
<br />Now, what's the new blog gonna be all about ?<span style="font-weight:bold;"> (* click on the words "the new blog" above or on the main title)<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span>
<br />Fashion will always be a passion of mine but I feel I could share more closer to me subjects.
<br />For instance, I will have a better equipped kitchen and I might do a bit of Julia Child imitation here. I finally will have my OWN private workspace so I can invite you all in my world of creativeness. Sebastian's room will be the first of many home decorating projects (and I already have a neighbour, Karen who wants to find inspiration in his room and is invited to enjoy the final result for Sebastian's room - she has 2 sons herself). We made this deal a couple of weeks ago. Now, she said the 'hood' we are welcomed in, is a childfriendly, 30-40 something area, peaceful yet trendy but not the m'as tu vue scene we are used to live in right now ! I do have to admit I am pretty fed up by the constant presence of people. I mean, can't I just stay in my PJ's for my morning coffee ! Oh the hell yes !! The prospect of my own little city garden with a spot in the morning sun makes me jump for joy. *am clapping my hands as we speak*
<br />
<br />I don't want to sound like a-social bitch but the 'Antwerpen Zuid' scene gave me the same feel as 'fried air' these last 2 years. It just did not feel home to me anymore.
<br />
<br />
<br />{OoO}
<br />
<br />I now can but hope you will follow me into this new personal era.
<br />As soon as the new blogname is a fact, I will leave a constant link to the new blog, so you guys can click it and follow me again.
<br />Hope to see you all very soon.
<br />
<br />Talk to you soon !

You must like the way COS presents their collection on the racks ; seeing through it and making a choice between all perfectly finished products. COS is like a mini concept store ; basicly drowned in black, midnight blues, white and off whites. Since last year they added some edgynes in presenting hints of fluorescent colours like green and orange. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';">Books, candles and jewelry are spread all around the store. Shoes and underwear complement their collection (and style). In fact, you can buy a complete season's outfit in case you would lose your luggage ; a good tip for any1 coming to a European country and suffering this loss and inconvenience. On top of that, prices are democratic and fair. Materials are pure and soft. Silk, cottons and cashmere are mostly used. For shoes, belts and bags it's soft leather. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';">I'll leave you guys with some pictures, a tiny hint of what you might expect from any COS store around Europe. But a visit won't do you any harm ; check them out and submerge in style and class that won't break the bank.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>Dominicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12082865177750034406noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812988658182260819.post-77528272519283813822011-04-26T15:29:00.004+02:002011-04-28T11:24:03.423+02:00Fratelli Rossetti<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga0hk8y_WBERa3AhzDE3lj05HGocYr0QjBnQT8EqFd5o8oKVeAeFLV8IMFepkL25P2W9z41-RhOIQocPsV1u0uNwi2oQwPzzJL92QMlgV2UPmalyA8tjdaq56pWREHafnUxkTZRT1IWyyh/s1600/myshoes.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 343px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga0hk8y_WBERa3AhzDE3lj05HGocYr0QjBnQT8EqFd5o8oKVeAeFLV8IMFepkL25P2W9z41-RhOIQocPsV1u0uNwi2oQwPzzJL92QMlgV2UPmalyA8tjdaq56pWREHafnUxkTZRT1IWyyh/s400/myshoes.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599886016190184674" /></a><br />Lately, I'm developing a bad case of shoe addiction. I've always loved a good shoe but was somehow a bit avaricious to spend lots of money on them. I was or am more of a Converse girl.<div>After my 3 pairs at Marcoz last month (1 pair is still hiding in the box cause I feel a bit ashamed in what hubby will think) I got me another pair of lovelies. They were calling me in the window display when I went for my first run at the coast last weekend. Normally I concentrate on my running at this early hour, but the new shop just across our appartment has had a bad effect on me and my wallet.</div><div>The shoes I longed for aren't available in Antwerp, nor Brussels. That was the best excuse to buy them (correct: get them as my Easter present). I've only had seen them in a magazine so far.</div><div>So here we are ; looking at my tan leather stilettos with adjustable strap (red or tan) ... my inner Carry Bradshaw is coming out. Maybe the scarf addiction wasn't that bad after all compared to this addiction.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Dominicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12082865177750034406noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5812988658182260819.post-24445811847681894352011-03-28T19:14:00.007+02:002011-03-28T19:32:12.143+02:00Brogues<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkb8UPfrcAJVbf237mppmqVF_s33mLv7NyyVZtWhqJHGnEJj-D5PGO-4kZi2pNfhkxU9grUrE8XoExk8gyhugYRRSaWOGcOXEdMqN6tgV4YqOcoGAdTldICus20vVLI7dibw9SPiA3aH0n/s1600/Celebrity-Brogues.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 141px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkb8UPfrcAJVbf237mppmqVF_s33mLv7NyyVZtWhqJHGnEJj-D5PGO-4kZi2pNfhkxU9grUrE8XoExk8gyhugYRRSaWOGcOXEdMqN6tgV4YqOcoGAdTldICus20vVLI7dibw9SPiA3aH0n/s400/Celebrity-Brogues.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589183511183574114" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBzhxPC6F3dcqBGSNH2Vb5uqhyphenhyphenMEfmcYieZ3qXle7OXfrB7pGTauSoOvFlhqV6FlWkUiZ-i3XC0HwDEQn25k-cXI5eYTsu_JsBeOnSUL2TAYU4VHFBtDbYc8_1R_xfH7Ph9R9bQkBamqPV/s1600/brogues%252C+Garance+Dore+-+The+Sartorialist.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBzhxPC6F3dcqBGSNH2Vb5uqhyphenhyphenMEfmcYieZ3qXle7OXfrB7pGTauSoOvFlhqV6FlWkUiZ-i3XC0HwDEQn25k-cXI5eYTsu_JsBeOnSUL2TAYU4VHFBtDbYc8_1R_xfH7Ph9R9bQkBamqPV/s400/brogues%252C+Garance+Dore+-+The+Sartorialist.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589183431118316914" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieG0ynTaBv4l7EH9ExffnhcXtz7bXA10ixaLJah6fdOfj27uNezznA2by15qXIbpFUWpxwKRkkP1NajlKoEb4-TRlYq60gHUw8tRTj5Lxkc9r2whs1fa9dqbeWwmX9NmnFH1qVoRDFOA44/s1600/palermo+olivia+2009+sept+ny.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieG0ynTaBv4l7EH9ExffnhcXtz7bXA10ixaLJah6fdOfj27uNezznA2by15qXIbpFUWpxwKRkkP1NajlKoEb4-TRlYq60gHUw8tRTj5Lxkc9r2whs1fa9dqbeWwmX9NmnFH1qVoRDFOA44/s400/palermo+olivia+2009+sept+ny.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589183353828195010" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FF6600;">my 3 fave it-and fashion girls : Sienna, Garance & Olivia ...</span></span><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8z3IudhGOViwgeCH73S7LH3bg_EUyUGGNeSoKiflqZPpR3wpDBCkmOhUCkV7jvlf7pd-QZOxDx0Jhjw7koeRnOQrWqphLfBcc_vnGI5uNcTA_bz1oQVdO_7IcvOVjjbCLrbTkXDCEfP5q/s1600/olivia_palermo_brogues.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 249px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8z3IudhGOViwgeCH73S7LH3bg_EUyUGGNeSoKiflqZPpR3wpDBCkmOhUCkV7jvlf7pd-QZOxDx0Jhjw7koeRnOQrWqphLfBcc_vnGI5uNcTA_bz1oQVdO_7IcvOVjjbCLrbTkXDCEfP5q/s400/olivia_palermo_brogues.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589183272116547938" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';"><br />I like shoes.

I've been "shopping-bag-free" for 2 years. My big black Birkin was always at my side but I have to admit, it's a very heavy bag. Especially when it leaves you the space for loads of stuff and crap. The bigger the bag - the havier the load of crap will be.</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';">Have to admit - a Birkin gives you free entrance and acces to lots of stuff. People do judge you by your bag. Sloppy jeans and old coat don't matter ; you have THE bag on your arm. It's like a VIP backstage pass.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'courier new';">Sounds surreal ?
