She was here



A couple of months ago, there was a lot of commotion when it was said Gaga would be posing for Mario Testino on a secret location here in Antwerp.
Soon the word spread via Twitter the shoot was actually in that part of town where I live.
In fact, it was just across my house. I live in the South area and every day I enjoy the magnificant view of the Museum of Ancient Arts. Some of my oldest fellow bloggers here already know this, as they have seen many pics of me in front of it.
I was very eager to see what the pics would look like and today I recognized a chair and the mosaïc floor of our beloved museum...
I'm happy to say Lady Gaga was my neighbour for (just) one day !

Rush rush

Wasn't she lovely back then ?


I used to have this Vogue myself ; Renée was my favourite model and not only because of her looks ; she dated a Duran Duran popstar at that time !


Already as a teenager besotted and overwhelmed by this magical black Chanel bow !
Look at those buttons...(CC's intwined)


Had to rush to be in time to open the shop. The kids have no school today and I was impatiently waiting for the nanny to come...she came 15 minutes late, so mum had to run  downstairs - with the stairs..our freakin' spooky elevator has broken down again...(4th time this week)..to get to Delhaize for her sandwich and uh oh...a new Vogue cover that I saw in the corner of my eye on the bookstand.
Vogue AND a Chanel cover ...can't resist that, would you ?
When I took a look at their website too, I saw this 'click' to re-discover their old covers till 1970 !
Got a bit curious and clicked on a few ... I remember those when I was a teenager, 14 or 15 years old...
On one of them is even a very young Sharon Stone, model for that month somewhere in July 1986 or 87...
