Put ur hands in the air, it's more fun like that!

This week me and my girls came together to celebrate the birthday and a new job of our best friend Margot.

Because I don't see them very often, I'm always very excited.

This time I've got to spend lot's of time with my Marge (this is one of the names I call her). First we did some shopping, in the evening we had dinner and afterwards I spend the night at her place.

In the morning we had the chance to catch up and enjoy the sun in her beautiful garden.

I wore: Zara dress, Lipsy jacket, Sac d'Anvers flats, Ken Mongolian fur bag, H&M sunnies

Margot wore: A.F. Vandevorst boots, Vintage jeans, COS coat and shirt, Petit Bateau sweater, Christophe Coppens brooch.

The morning after

Adore my dress

Small update

Between long dinners and cake parties and cleaning up the house I found a little time to update.

I must say that I forgot to take a picture of my Christmas outfit, believe me, this happens a lot to me. I didn't have a lot of time before the party, during the party I was busy eating and having a good time and afterwards it was already too dark. Plus enormous amount of snow outside and me wearing heels. I wore a new leopard dress btw.

Excuses, I know, I know. But I promise to be a good girl and show you my new years outfit, which I'm still haven't figured out.

So, back on topic, the reason for my update is another surprise that hit my mail box today.

A Birthday/Christmas present from my friends Margot, Nathalie & Griet.

Margot texted me this morning that the package will probably arrive today and she was right.

A few hours later the doorbell rang and there was the postman, handing me a box.

Inside I found a Birthday and Christmas card, a box full of delicious macarons. They were a little bit bruised from their trip, but not less tasty.

And last but not least a set of Fashionology bird skull earrings!!! I'm in love with them, thank u, girls!

Now my bird skull necklace has friends to hand out with ;)

Here's the bait :

I've become a real macaron addict, I must admit that this is already a second box that I got for my birthday. Yummy!

The birds

Also a little something, something. My dear friend Nathalie started blogging recently. Unlike me she updates regularly and has very nice pictures :p Make sure you give her a visit and leave some nice reactions!

Her blog is called The Merrymakers

See us in matching panda beanies and admit we're cute!

Fiesta Margotica Part I

I know Halloween is long behind us, but not when you're at the house of my dear friend Margot.

Every time we are at her place and we take pictures, the whole thing turns out to be a little grotesque party.

These are the results, we do get a little mad sometimes. But that's fun, not? :p

The Marge and her minions

A bit dangerous when crazy

My fave "prop" hat from her place

And some normal pictures. You can finally see my beloved leather jacket from Lipsy that I bought this summer and have been wearing it non-stop.

Sorry for the rude gesture, but the picture shows the collar perfectly :p

And isn't posing with a picture of yourself the biggest sign of vanity?!

Hotel Jarretelle

I'm sorry for my absence, I've been working and wasn't home a lot.

Makes me a bad blogger again, I know.

Recently I visited the first Belgian burlesque festival called " Hotel Jarretelle".

All the acts were pretty interesting and fun to watch.

It's nice to see the scene grow. Belgium is always late with things like this.

The light was mostly red, so quiet difficult to take normal pictures, but here are the results.

Me and my friend Margot ( from the previous post) before the show.

I'm wearing an H&M dress and Vivienne Westwood pearl necklace.

Margot De Troyer

Today I present you my first favorite collection from the Academy of Ghent.

This collection belongs to my beloved friend Margot, who just graduated.

She wrote a short introduction for the collection:

A Red Wisj

This collection was inspired by the world of the whirling dervishes, by their ethnical costume, the transformation while they dance their ceremony. I created a red universe for my women, where there is a fine line between a trashy sexy woman and an elegant one.

The women provoke with their red clothes made out of see through fabrics, but still maintain a certain elegance and mystery. The pieces are quite sober with not to many fringes, this falls in one line with the simple clothing the dervishes wear daily.
