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 !

Creativity never stops


Always fun to receive something unexpected on your doorstep. Not the usual stuff like bills and commercial crap but a genuine present.
The little bag contained such a lovely package ; almost too beautiful to open.
Stylist Henny made this on her hospital (!!) bed yesterday ; creativity never stops.
I do understand the woman. She likes me and I like to make stuff for her too. Sometimes an opportunity comes along and this morning she called me up to ask me to help her for a project for an interior and lifestyle magazine. It will be the May issue. It will have to be something with birds.
I'm working on it as we speak ! Once the mag comes out, I'll share my happy moment with you guys.


A sugar bear ; sweet but too sugary to eat (at once) ..


This is Henny's sous-terre (basement) vitrine ; she's a decorator and stylist and likes to share anything beautiful with the rest of us.
