A.F. Vandevorst Fall 2012

I'm posting the fall collection of my favorite designerduo AF Vandevorst.

Belgian brand : Wouters and Hendrix

  I'd love to do a post on jewelry. I'm not the kind of girl that puts on 5bracelets/3rings/a watch/a necklace and earrings on before I walk out the door. I've never really been into buying a lot of cheap jewelry in H&M or Forever 21 (occasionally I have of course :-)).

I wear a few pieces everyday (silver big ring), but all of the other stuff in my only gets out for those special occasions! It's when treating these things a special way, that I just feel that tiny bit more pretty when putting them on!

My go to jewelry designer (if you want something special/timeless and high quality) has been Wouters & Hendrix for some time now.  Katrin Wouters and Karen Hendrix are a designer duo that both graduated at the famous Royal Academy of Fine Arts, section goldsmithing in Antwerp/Belgium. They started designing jewelry together in 1984, and they're doing a great job.  They use a lot of different materials, silver/gold/rose/stones and do deliver a mixture of different styles. Sure you can find the more girly things here, but they also make great statement pieces!

Just a few shots from their latest collections....enjoy!

Dries Van Noten Fall 2012

Of course no introduction necessary, everybody loves Dries! He's a famous fashiondesigner, graduated from Antwerp fashionschool,,and I'm very proud to say that yes he's Belgian! :-)

He's wellknow for his use of prints and colors, and this season is no different. Looove the blue and orange that he's using this year. He drew his inspiration from Japan/China,, love the uses of silk, the embroided dragons, kimono's! It's a collection that was to be expected, typically Dries. I loved his shoes for the fall season, he always makes the most amazing shoes! Take a look at my favorite looks this season!


Go Dries!!
