Essentiel at Miele catwalk

I was lucky enough to be invited last Thursday to the Miele catwalk, but even better was the lovely invitation we got from Inge Onsea- the brain and inspiration behind the Belgian brand Essentiel - to spend the afternoon with her backstage. I always find these kind of invitations fun and interesting, but this time it was so much more than simply 'interesting', it was truly a wonderful experience. Inge and Tom - the other creative genius behind Essentiel - are the perfect duo, bouncing ideas off of each other and complementing one another to perfection. They are all smiles and giggles, and are both clearly the inspiration behind this youthful and colourful brand catering to the carefree woman. And check out those green and red leather jacket that they did for this F/W 2011 collection, they are simply gorgeous.

PS: Inge is the gorgeous lady in the bright yellow coat and Tom is the one sporting the great bomber jacket.

As always Filles à papa were amazing, Bshirt was fun and laid-back and Lenny Leleu was my discovery of the evening.

A huge thank you to Miele for putting on a wonderful show, to Oona -especially Marie - for always thinking of me, and to Inge and Tom for the openness and free spirit.

Here is a quick outfit post, with some of the items I seem to be wearing a lot lately; my YesStyle grey coat, my Philippe Audibert silver cuff, my black jeans and my black H&M patent boots. I also went to glorybox to discover the new collection from Filles à Papa and I have to say its pretty amazing 'again'. So I thought I would share with you some of my favourite pieces, and of course I didn't leave empty handed.

We arrived in Warsaw Friday morning and it is absolutely freezing here, and when I say freezing I am not just saying this loosely, I mean it :) However, the city is pretty amazing and everything seems to be bigger here which is quite intriguing.

It's not a short story

I have been getting a lot of email about the Ottaman Hands's ring in my previous post and also regarding the Belgian brand 'Filles à papa'. I am currently answering all your questions but I thought it would be good to actually write few words about brands such as these that we come across and really want to share. As I have to say this is the precise reason why I started my blog nearly two years ago, I loved discovering online shops and new brands and sharing my finds. So I am extremely glad o hear and see that you are appreciating my finds and it is my pleasure to share these with you.

The shorts I am wearing are from QueensWardrobe, another one of these great WWW finds that I have shared with you already and will continue to do so. You should check out the stuff they have they really have so great stuff, and this is a perfect example of a brand that is ver blogger friendly which is great and somewhat inspiring.
