Last Thursday (28/8) I attended the launch event of Dr. Martens in Kammenstraat 41 in beautiful fashion capital Antwerp. My sister and I went there together, all excited about this opening event, because Dr. Martens is a brand we both love, and this was the opportunity to release our inner rebel, and go all black/grey/punk scarf (sister) & leather jacket (me). Also my new pointy ankle boots made their debut, and I couldn't be happier about them.

Before going to the event, I browsed their website thoroughly, and decided I wanted this yellow scarf. Doesn't it just scream Clueless? And as for this launching event there was an exclusive -50% discount on everything in store. Everything. I swear you, the temptation to buy myself a pair of classic black shoes was incredible, but I resisted, and got my beloved scarf instead. Isn't it a masterpiece?

Also, how cute are these mini Dr Martens for kids? I decided straight away that my kid will strot around in a pair of these shoes, because how cool would that be? I actually saw this little 8 year girl trying on a few pairs, and she looked amazing, with her Harley Davidson leather jacket and Dr Martens shoes. Fashion has no age for sure!

And what's a store launch without good drinks & a bite? The drink of the night was Tanquerey Gin, served with pink tonic and strawberry. As you know me, anything pink makes me happy, so this gin was a little piece of heaven to me - not only very pretty and photogenic but also delicious. Also the food was amazing: right outside the Dr. Martens store, Bulls and Dogs were offering the best hot dogs I every had, straight from the Markthallen of Amsterdam City. I had a 'medium spicy' dog, and I assure you, it was delicious. 

I honestly had the most amazing night, discovering all these gorgeous shoes, bags and accessories - my love for the UK's coolest brand has definitely grown! 

Everyone knows Havaianas, which are also known as the most comfortable shoes for holidays and the summer season in general. But then again, yes, they're comfortable, but aren't they unfashionable and only worn in public by kids, men with hairy feet and Australians? 

Controversy aside, if any brand can pull it off, it's Brazilian brand Havaianas, basically inventor pf the flip-flop, with the help of fashion blogger Sincerely Jules last summer (2014), when she went to Coachella and only wore Havaianas while living the good life at the world's trendiest festival, and the looks she styled with a bunch of pretty flip-flops were so gorgeous, that I decided that Havaianas are cool, period. 

Upon receiving the press release of the River Island A/W 2015 collection, I fell in love, deeply and immediately. There's sixties vibes, there's a lot of seventies vibes, and the mix is just perfect. Colours are earthy, dusty, but with a touch of unexpected colour and glitter to spice up your Autumn wardrobe.

Thank you Dressgal for this gorgeous dress, I love it to bits, and the quality is good. I do recommend going one size larger than usual, as otherwise it might get too tight on the chest and bum. Yes, it's a bit see-through, but it's white after all, and there's a reason seamless nude-coloured underwear was invented. I totally recommend you visiting their webshop and pick your favourite style - click here!

One week ago, Primark Ghent opened its doors, and I must admit, I'm happy to see that the Irish chain is finally in my former student city as well. Yes, I'm aware of all the negative comments the store gets, but I'm sure every chain is about the same, and Zara, beloved by every fashion girl (except for me as I don't fit into the brand made for petite girls), is worse, if I can believe all the horror stories. Overall, I've always been happy with my Primark purchases in the past. And living in London made me a bigger fan, as there's more Primark stores in that one city than in the entirety of Belgium.
