Torino, mi manca!

Good memories ♥

Him

Plots staat hij daar.
Achter het hoekje.
Op z'n gemak naar je te kijken.
Alsof ie nooit wat anders doet.
Met grote lieve ogen kijkt ie naar je.
Tot je je omdraait en hem aankijkt.

Dan schiet zijn staart tussen zijn poten
en vlucht ie terug naar z'n holletje.

De kat van vriendin A.
Of wat dacht je dan?



All of a sudden, he's there.
Behind the corner.
Watching you.
As if he never does anything else.
With big loving eyes, he looks at you.
Until you turn around and look him in the eye.

Then his tail drops between his legs,
and he runs all the way back to his nest.

My friend A's cat.
What did you expect?

Student meltdown

Studeren... Zou ik moeten doen vandaag... Niet dus ^.^ En als de concentratie gaan wandelen is, wat kan je anders doen dan achter je bureau zitten tekenen, tijd verliezen, figuurtjes vouwen van restjes papier, het laatste verdwaalde paasei opsnoepen, je zonnebril poetsen, en veeeel te lang surfen? Een productieve dag? Wel ja, toch een beetje dan ^.^

Vanmorgen nog snel-snel de stad in gefietst voor de trouw van een vriendin, en - na een heerlijke lunch - terug in de stoel om verder te werken (lees : prutsen). De feesten zijn voor in de zomer, en plots lijkt die nog mijlenver van hier verwijderd...

Maar eigenlijk mag ik niet klagen : one down, two to go ^.^ Duimen!!

Studying... Should do some today... Not ^.^ When concentration walks away, what else is there to do than sit behind your desk, drawing, wasting time, making origami figures from scraps of paper, eat the last (and lost) easter egg, polish your sunglasses, and surf waaay too long? A productive day? Well yes, just a little ^.^

This morning I rush-rushed into town for a friend's wedding, and - after a great lunch - got back to my chair to work *cough*. Parties are for summer, and all of a sudden that seems so far far away...

But I actually have no reason to complain : one down, two to go ^.^ Wish me luck!!

Sfinks Festival

I hope you all had a great weekend!! I know I did. We partied at Sfinks Festival, a really cosy world music festival, with fantastic acts and super happy people all around. Here is my impression of the night.

Fredy Massamba had great energy.

The Karim Baggili Quintet jazzed up the place with classical instruments and great percussion.

The harpist of Cimarrón rocked his harp - really awesome!!

My super handy little vintage bag.

Festival style ^^

The Bar.

Late night soup.

Will definitely be back next year!!

Bag Ladies

Are these bags super original or what?

LEW

LEW : Kim Leemans and Merel Wicker. Take a look at their spring/summer 09 collection. As Susie of Style Bubble says, it's "controlled ice-cream, straight-edged cupcakes". Great collection!!

The Laughing House

The past few days have been busy, filled with all sorts of activities. The most exciting part was probably the delivery of an order I made on Etsy last week. The package came all the way from Singapore! Scroll down these pictures and fall in love! Thank you so much!!

Summertime, and the living is easy

I can now proudly announce that summer has finally hit Belgium! The last few days have been filled with sunshine, and siesta has become a way of life. I won't shout it out to loud, lest the rain should pop in without invitation...
Just couldn't hide this from you : a lovely Stella McCartney Resort 2010 Collection with Anouck Lepère. A smile a day keeps the doctor away. ^^

UPDATE : With all this heat, I forgot two C's... The C in Anouck Lepère's name (which has been added now), and the C for 'Credits' : inspiration via A Cup of Jo, pictures on Style.com.
