Antwerp Fashion Night 2012

 Last Friday night, all the fashionable boys and girls from Antwerp went for a shopping spree "after hours". Combine the best shops in Antwerp, DJ sets, beautiful people, cocktails, fingerfood loads of champagne and you get:

Antwerp Fashion Night!

 

AFN_2012 kicked off with a fabulous "make-over" preparty, where you could get all dolled up

to go shopping afterwards.

All participating shops kept their doors open until 10 p.m. (instead of 6 p.m.), welcoming you with a glass of champagne and entertainment inside the shop. Live bands, a bloggers closet sale, pop-up stores, goodiebags, discounts,...

We even saw an artisan of Hermès manufacture a handbag on the spot!

 

After shopping, we celebrated a succesful first edition of AFN at the official afterparty at Magic, a nightclub in Antwerp! We had quite the evening!

 

Make sure you check out our first "home-made" video; at the end you can see the interview we did with the designers of Les Hommes. Stay tuned for the full article!

Matinique Exclusive Preview SS2013

If you're looking for some new threads, Matinique is most certainly the way to go this winter! Just check out the video below and their website. Soon we'll review a wintercoat and you, our beloved readers, will be able to enjoy a special discount! So stay tuned ;-)

 

The spring-summer collection 2013 is SO beautiful that we couldn't wait any longer to share our pictures with you. Henrik Kongerslev, head of design at Matinique, came all the way from Denmark to Belgium to present the SS13 collection himself to some lucky few. Many of Belgians most talented stylists and some celebrities were there. We were invited too - can you believe how excited we were?!

 

Anyhow, when you take a look at the pictures below, we hope you get an idea of just how pretty these clothes are! It's, quite frankly, just a taste of what's in store for you/us, because every single piece is outstanding!

The great thing about Matinique is that it offers everything. You can step into one of their stores and buy an entire new outfit, underwear and shoes included. And you'll look amazing from head to toe, obviously!

Conclusion: definitely keep an eye on this brand: any purchase whatsoever is an added value to your wardrobe!

Outfit post: Street Cred

I was just walking around the city Antwerp, not looking for anything in particular, when I came across this fabulous pair of jeans by Current/Elliot! Damn, I love them so much haha... Current/Elliott is such an edgy and raw brand, with the creaziest jeans you've ever seen! Rihanna and Lindsay Lohan also wear this brand (do we need to say more?)

Nino and I (Christophe) of Men Trend went to Amsterdam for the weekend. There I found this shirt, which is from River Island. I searched a long time to find the perfect boat shoes, but finally I found these, by Sebago. Also in Amsterdam, such a great city! ;-)

Oh, and the watch I'm wearing is Rado; I wear it daily, actually.

I hope you enjoy the pictures!
