This is how you spell OMG

Yesterday the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show aired in the US of A. This is an event marked in every normal guys and girls' calender. If not, I would start to worry, cause those Victoria's Secret angels work it as if the rent is due tomorrow!

Ever since 1995, the American multimillion retailer knows how to paralyze the whole world by the amazingly sexy lingerie that walks down the catwalk on mile high stilts.

There have only been about 150 Angels in total rocking the fantasy like runways, including Tyra Banks, Alessandra Ambrosio, Chanel Iman, Doutzen Kroes, Gisele Bündchen, Adriana Lima, Heidi Klum and many more.
They all come out from behind the screen and take it away! The girls don't only parade the (under)garments, but also a beautiful confidence and spontaneousness. Enough to give you goosebumps!

This year, as usual, many girls counted their belly rolls as they were sitting in the sofa watching the show, and guys regret getting married that soon. Or, like me, this inspired me to get going with my sit-up routine again...

This years' show had a few different themes; Ballet, Super Angels, Passion, Aquatic Angels, I Put A Spell On You, and Pink. All of them were fantastic to look at. The time and effort being put into this show is so recognizable, as every detail of this show is taken care of (aside of the shoe falling off of one of the models).

I am already looking forward for the next show!

Psyched about the Spike

I have been completely, utterly in love with The Lita shoes from Jeffrey Campbell. I have now decided to save every cent from now on, so I can finally purchase them (or dear parents, please take this as a hint with the holiday season coming up)! Even though they are 13 cm high, I have heard it's like walking on clouds.

I have been stalking the shit out of the Lita shoes for months now, and I have finally decided which one of the many designs I want. The Lita Spike.

Good girl gone bad.
Perfection.
Sex on legs.
Cirque du Soleil taken to the street.
If every girl out there would wear them, there would be no more men staring at your tattas but at your Lita's, trust.


You can't find the Lita Spike's in Belgium, so I will have to order them online. I have never ordered something online, but I am ready to pop that cherry properly.

I simply cannot wait to let them walk me. I want to show them the world...they better be ready.

Androgynous voices ruling the world!

What is up with men singing like women these days? I thought a man felt like a complete man once his voice changes and gets deeper once they hit puberty. WRONG.

The pride of a feminine voice is everywhere these days. Justin Bieber winning 2 awards yesterday at the MTV Europe awards shows what kind of musical market we are in these days. Where did the I've-been-smoking-and-drinking-all-my-life-and-I-will-die-as-a-rockstar voice go?!
Most of us women can live with men wearing skinny jeans, and the bullshit story that real men wear pink, but when men sport the high-pitched, suspiciously feminine voice, most women roll their eyes. Deservedly.

Yet, there is one exception to the rule. His name is Nick Pitera. Baby face, check. Talent? Major check. This (she)male is unbelievable! For some, just listen, it might be too harsh too see that a man can effortlessly pull of the male and female voice.

But hey, quiet a compliment for all women, that men just want to be like us- the stronger sex. It's finally coming out! Ha.

Who the hell is Walter?!

I have not been blogging for a whole month... I really don't have a reason why. A lot has been going on, so I shall update!

I recently went to the Rihanna concert in Antwerp with my little cousins. They are big Rihanna fans, so I decided to accompany them since they are too young go to alone. I like Rihanna's music as well, but wouldn't really go to a concert. But I did and it was amazing! Rihanna is such a great performer- the concert was filled with varieties of media, songs, choreography and clothes! Rihanna has got a banging body, an amazing (live!) voice and keeps up with her dance moves on the stage. She came on stage ridiculously late, but that was easily forgotten once she started to sing.


This week I went to the fashion museum in Antwerp, Momu. I have been wanting to go to Momu for so long, and I never took the time for it. But this week we went there with my fashion class, and went to see the exhibition from Walter van Beirendonck, one of the famous Antwerp 6 designers. I was in the happiest of places! My little fashion heart melted seeing his work displayed.

Beirendonck must be on some kind of drugs to be able to create garments like this. Psychedelic fetishes. Old and new. Classical fashion elements combined with futuristic elements. Toys.
No shape, color or idea is too outrageous for the crazy man with the beard. His wide range of inspiration created an exhibition full of surprises. Beirendonck is anything but prude, he makes you blush just by looking at his garments. No shame digitally printing genitalia on pants, or having a window view exposing the whole backside of your bum.
Aside of making you blush, he also made you love struck. There was a big screen showing his fashion shows he did with the clothes on display in the museum. Unbelievable how he can put a new twist on things. Instead of taking stick thin models, and having them play dead on the runway, he took groovy looking men and let them feel the moment by performing some dance moves, being in tune with the music playing, and showing off the garments in a whole different way. Hats off!

I left Momu feeling amazing, and so proud of the talent that this little country has got to offer. Anyone taking a city trip to Antwerp, or lives near, I recommend the Momu to all!

Well, color me happy! There's a sofa in here for two!

Yes, the Adele song may sound like a broken record to some, as it's always on the radio, and on everyone's Itunes. Yet, this attempt to the song is so refreshing. The young girl steals the show! Her notes are not sung pure, but her charisma and the feel for the lyrics she gets, comes across so real and natural.

The duo sitting in their simple mahogany leather sofa with a guitar, creates little Youtube magic. No glitter, no glamour, no retouching, yet still touching :)

Nevermind

Have you maybe noticed that the past few days Nirvana is quiet the hot topic? This is because it's been 20 years since they launched their genius album, Nevermind. The American rock band killed hair metal (aka pop metal or glam metal), and put grunge on the throne.

Nirvana is mostly known for their word wide hit, Smells like teen spirit. This songs made youth feel like it was written for them, and for them only. The way Kurt Cobain could relate his voice to the voice of youth, was unique. Youth went wild, and Nirvana became an overnight sensation. Funny fact is that, Smells like teen spirit was the song that was least thought about, and the last one to add to the album, yet it became the biggest, and most famous track that Nirvana would ever make.

The band was hoping to maybe sell 100 000 copies of their record, which was already a very high aim for them. They were up for the big jackpot, and ended up selling 30 million copies world wide. Now, this album is listed # 17 on the top 500 of the greatest albums of all time.

The video clip of Smells like teen spirit gives you the complete message with the song. The underdeveloped filming skills, making the video less mainstream, the rough cheerleaders sporting the anarchy logo, and a bunch of teens going crazy to Cobain singing till his vocal cords almost snap.

Sadly, Kurt Cobain committed suicide and was found dead on April 5th 1994. He listened to an album of R.E.M before shooting himself in the head. His suicide was due to his alcohol abuse and clinical depression. All the suicide notes found made it clear that this was his last act of desperation. Yet, like most amazing musicians- Nirvana had more success after Kurt's suicide. The grunge style became in, the music was hot...and Smells like teen spirit has been imitated my countless artists all the way up to the respectful imitations by Tori Amos and the less respectful imitations by Miley Cyrus. Cobain did not die without leaving his traces... Cheers to that!

Prada or nada

I am in love with the elegant alien vibe that Prada puts out with this ad campaign video. The video is filled with sexy suspense. Strong, strong Prada.



The combination of patterns, colors, volume and texture creates a creepy end product, a good creepy. The kind of creepy that gives you chills up and down your body because even though the garments are crazy, the passion that Miuccia Prada put into it drips off from the collection. The collection is all in all awkward. Awkward boots, which makes it look like you are wearing socks underneath your Mary Jane heels, the awkward material combinations of glitter with fur, and a new improved way to carry your purse. Forget the skimpy, little tight dresses with killer heels and red lipstick. This is the new (awkward) sexy!
