For those of you who follow me on Instagram and Twitter you might already know that I spent last Saturday with the lovely and very talented Sofie from Fashionata. She took me around her city, Antwerp (Belgium), and brought me to her favourite places to go. I have been to Antwerp quite a few times already but it was great to discover the city thought someone else's eyes. We in the Starbucks at the central station for coffee and actually ended up staying there for a while sharing our PR stories and blog related stories. Sofie then took me to the Verso restaurant for lunch and for a bit of shopping in the gorgeous Verso shop. It's a mini Belgium version of the French Printemps and the English Liberty. Then we headed of to one of Sofie's favourite shops that sells over 40 different brands from all over, Enes. Muriel, the owner of the store was a delight to talk to and Enes offers the most amazing leather and fur coats. We poped into the new COS store, Mango and Step-by-step, and then to  a super creative and affordable -as it should be - vintage store called Jutka&Riska. I just had to stop at the new candy store in town, Doctor Seven, which sells you candy and mostly jelly beans and fun packaging. Finally, we sat down for a delicious cold bubble tea at Jili which was the perfect way to end the day.

Stay tuned for part two, a new day and a new city to discover. You can follow our hotspots on Instagram and Twitter with the hashtag #hotspotsbytoniandsofie

In cannes

I am finally on vacation and I have to say it feels great. One of my favorite things to do in Cannes - appart from doing absolutely nothing - is to go to the market in the 'vieux' Cannes. You just can't go wrong with all the fresh fruit & veg, fish, spices and teh most amazing flowers.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, I just really needed some time off and to myself. However the month of September will be packed with exiting new projects, amazing giveaways and a lot of posts. So be prepared.

Blown up at Forever21

 

I went shopping with the boy on Saturday in Antwerp, and as we passed the new Forever21 store, my jaw dropped. I couldn't believe it! There I was, all 4m of me. I had been contacted a month or so ago to ask me if I was okay about being on the digital screens in the new store, little did I know that they meant the giant ones at the front of the shop. I have to say it was pretty impressive and I am grateful for such a nice gesture. Plus, it was an honour for me to be up there with the great Sabrina, from AfterDRK.

Diary Bruges

I went back to Bruges (where i spent most of last year) over the weekend and caught up with some friends from all over. I went first to Antwerp to do a bit of shopping first which was a nice change. I thought I would share with you some of the pics of Bruges and the two great -and very fashionable- friends I made there last year. The three last pictures were actually taken in Paris over the summer.

Also, for my Belgian readers I have a nice little contest for you. The French brand Bel Air is about to open a shop in the 'quartier Louise' area - Galerie Louise, n°3. I have two invitations (valid for two people) to attend the shop opening this week, Thursday 27 October courtesy of Cyrielle. I am planning on being there along with other bloggers. So if you are interested and would like to come, just send an email to the following address: mail@projectdistribution.com and the winners will be randomly selected. Good luck!
