Embrace neoprene

Last weekend we went to Milano for the fashion trade shows White & Super.
One thing we noticed: designers are searching to use new materials in fashion.
The appearance of neoprene in the fashion industry is undeniable.

My try out of the Leghila collection

Witch takes me to a very interesting find...the neoprene bags made by the Italian brand Leghila.
Neoprene is the material used for diving suits, this makes them actually washable.  So bye bye dirty bags.
They represent the perfect mix between classic models and modern elegance.
Colourful leightweight bags which can add a blast of fresh air to your everyday look (you can choose out of 100 bi-colors).

Many fashion magazines call Leghila a must-have fashion accessory and the bags are featured in magazines such as Vogue, Marie Claire, Elle, Glamour,...

From Luisa via Roma to Harvey Nicols, from New York to Singapore, Leghila is a must-have bag worldwide.

Which model do you prefer?

New products in my makeup bag

Today I bought some new beauty products. They are always packed in nice boxes and packaging what makes them irresistible.  You want to use them right away.

The first product is Hydramax + Active gel creme from Chanel.  I use it every day, it has a really nice texture and moisturizes your skin without making it feel sticky.

I also bought the mascara from Givenchy noir couture 4 in 1.  It promises to be a four-in-one mascara that creates intense volume, strong curl, infinite length, and complete lash care.
If I have to believe the reviews on the net it makes the promises come true. Let's hope so !!

The third product I bought and I was already using it in the past so I can write a review about this one: Christian Dior Waterproof Eyeliner.  This eyeliner  has a creamy texture, never smudges and stays all day long, the colour is intense it is easy to remove with make up remover.

Last one is the eyeshadow palette from Chanel n°41 Fascination with three blue shades and a complementary highlight.  You can wear them dry for a softer, more sophisticated look, or apply them wet for more impact and bringing out every facet of the colours.  I can not wait to try them.

Valentine's night out @ place to be in Antwerp (Cipriani Edegem)

On Valentine's night we went out to my favourite restaurant in Antwerp: Cipriani, located in Edegem.  If you like Italian food this is really the place to be!! If you visit Antwerp you have to have dinner there.

The owner of the place is an Italian, born in Bari,  he is really a phenomenon in Antwerp.  He already had 3 restaurants in Antwerp, that were a huge succes story!  This one is not inferior to the ones before, on the contrary.

It is situated in the old town hall of Edegem, an historic building in combination with a modern architecture.

The food is excellent and authentic Italian and the atmosphere is so good that you feel like you are on

holiday in Italy !
