All I seem to do lately


is eat but also watch carefully WHAT I eat. Coconut water apparently seems to be the new hot stuff to drink. Healthy and hydrating, full of vitamins and refreshing !
So once again, I'm doing a post about a healthy eatery, Pitten & Bonen (Grains & Beans) ...
In the 'Wilde Zee' area in Antwerp, just around the corner of Louis, famous for their Balenciaga, Margiela and Rick Owens collections, you will find this sympa eatery famous for using fresh vegs and fruits ...

Wednesday ...kicked of just fine...

And my day started so well, so healthy...
Got my last cards to the post and treated me to some small breakfast at Le Pain Quotidien...almost fell on our mayor ; he came in when I went out...after enjoying my nuts-flute ( what's in a name, but hey, it takes one to know one.....doesn't it ?), cappuccino and boiled bio egg...



On my way out this afternoon (my nanny stood me up just one our before the kids had to get out from school....sigh)
I passed this little special bookstore...when my eye caught this little number...
Was so charmed, popped in and did myself a favour...



Famous for our French fries (wich are actually Belgian) and friteries...
I was in a state and had this 'whatever' feeling at the 'fin du jour' as I sneaked of to the nearest friterie just across the street where I work.
Ordered me a mini-portion fries (I do have a conscience apparently) with sweet mayo (I know you guys don't understand us Belgians...I remember the scene from the Tarantino movie...) a meatball with onion (bad breath now, have to do something about that before hubby comes home) - cold curry (yesss) and a diet coke...
It tasted really GOOD. Didn't eat the whole lot but just till I had this satisfying feeling...

Laundry Industry




One of my favourite brands always has been Laundry Industry...
They work with black & whites and add in each collection a few strong colours to make the look complete...
Over the years I managed to collect some of their best items ...
Recently I found a dress of a few seasons ago in the back of my closet and it put a smile on my face...A LBD with a wink :
little frames and mirrors cover the whole dress - in the front the hem is shorter than on the back... and a bow makes the look complete...
Little puffed sleeves give the dress a very feminine touch - even if you like to wear rough boots with it, it will stay girly...

The pictures in this blog show you a hint of their recent collection...

What to wear on a Saturday night out



After I closed up (work) I did a bit of window shopping (I never ever buy anything on a Saturday, too busy, too many people that distract you) and it's alway nice to see a wonderful window display like the one I saw at 'Louis' today. Louis is known for it's lovely brands like Margiela and they've put a special edition of the Brilliant of Delvaux in their window.
A 'Brilliant' is a handbag that was specially designed in 1958 for the World's Expo and has been their most succesful number since.
Because of it's 50th birthday, Delvaux has asked some designers to make a special and limited edition of this handbag...
The 'ceci n'est pas un Delvaux' is my favourite ...
