Outfit // Empire State Of Mind

Every time I wear this Fashion's Night Out-shirt, Jay Z's song 'Empire State Of Mind' pops into my head. It was a gift from my sister - She went to New York last year, right before the Fashion Week started.

This black and white outfit was a perfect opportunity for me to debut the Balenciaga bag I bought in Antwerp. A lot of people tell me I'm crazy to spend so much money, because 'it is just a bag'. I really don't see it that way. I see it as an investment, since I expect to have this bag (and all of my other bags) for life. But I do understand why a lot of people would call me crazy, since it is a lot of money, but the Balenciaga bag really is worth its money. The many colours, the soft leather, the details ... So amazing. I would recommend Balenciaga to everyone!

Fashion Show // Balmain RTW F/W 2010

It's useless to say that I love Balmain jackets, I think that everyone will agree. I was holding a Balmain jacket when I was in Antwerp a couple of weeks ago - I loved it, but I put it back when I saw the price tag. They're just a little too much for my budget. But a girl can dream, right? So, here are a few pictures of the Fall 2010 RTW-show. These outfits are my favourites, even though it was a hard decision to pick them out. I love the Prince / Jimi Hendrix-jackets and the sequined dresses. Balmain sure knows how to design some stunning pieces!

Good job, Mr. Decarnin, good job!

Shark Attack Loves... // Rodarte Glow In The Dark Shoes

It looks like fashion keeps evolving more and more every second and I'm so thankful for that, because they keep coming with the craziest, but also most brilliant ideas.

I was, and still am, completely fascinated by the shoes with the glow in the dark-heels at the Rodarte fashion show. They look like the kind of shoes only fairies would wear. Seriously, I would be afraid to wear them! I'm already freaking out if I scratch my New Look-shoes, so I can't imagine how I would react if I would own these beauties and something would happen to them. I think I would use them as a night lamp for my bedside table, where they would be safe and sound. =)

And I'm sorry for the lack of updates. My internship has taken all of my time the past two weeks, but it ends this Thursday, so I'll be able to post more very soon!

New // Balenciaga City 'Raisin'

Yesterday, I went to Antwerp with my mom and my sister. I did not have the intention to buy anything special, or something I wanted in particular, but somehow I managed to get home with my first Balenciaga City-bag!

We entered a store that sells Balenciaga-bags and I was fascinated by the different colours they had there. My sister already owns two Balenciaga's, but I never really thought of getting one myself since I had been addicted to my Chanel 2.55 and my Dolce & Gabbana handbag my dad got me last summer.

But when I saw those coloured Balenciaga's, all lined up next to each other, I heard a little voice in my head saying: "Look at how cute they are. You know you want one, admit it."

And the little voice was right. First, I wanted to buy a black one, but when I had the bag in my hands, I realised that black is just black, and that I already had so many black or dark coloured handbags.

I decided to get a raisin/purple coloured one instead, since grass green and bubblegum pink is not really my style. Here's a picture of my bag - I promise to get some better pictures, but I have a 2 week during internship coming up which takes most of my time! :(
