#stulp

a small impression on last Sunday's STULP event

My BFF Babs and I booked a spot for this event way before COF announced it's Major Closetsale.

We could only hope for dry weather {we got sun} and pray people wouldn't forget us at the Kattendijkdok in Antwerp. The STULP bar and it's surroundings are at a spot where you just have to drive or walk to, it's not on your average hiking path or somewhere in the middle of the city centre.

I feared the COF sale would be our toughest competition but luckily for all of us, this was not the case. People kept coming and actually stayed, strolling around the vintage/pre-loved market, having a drink, a haircut {oh yes} and something to eat. Babs and I had installed our sun loungers, had a nice chat with loads of unknown but sweet people and we even had a little betting game on the items and how quick they would sell ! 

We had a blast ; a friend of mine who actually got into the COF sale, called me around 3PM, the venue appeared abandoned and empty (only packed with disappointed 17y old fashionista's and their racks still filled with an overload of Zara stuff , Kenzo tiger sweaters and other stuff people didn't want to spend even 1€ on) .. So I guess, the gain was on us ! Kerching !

We will definitely do this again, at STULP or GOEGEKREGEN (same thing, different location)

in the near future.

#pre-loved

the quality of my pictures is not that good (sorry, took them with my phone) but it shows how happy everyone was with the treasures they found !

This weekend I participated with friends Catherine and Magali at the Goegekregen market near our local concerthall. Sun was out and loads of people came along to search for nice stuff at low rated prices. Another man's trash is another man's treasure !

And so we began early to set up our clothes, shoes, bags and other accessories and boy, was I in for some hard work !!

I imagined having a relaxing day, easy and enjoying the nice weather, sipping on a soda pop ; hell no .. all these women came along, really early (like pro's, they just know the best stuff is found before the market even properly starts) and purchased almost everything from my little 'store' ..

Very happy I have an extra budget now the sales are starting.

Wepa ! Must go out and find that perfect bikini for my trip to Sicily pretty soon !

Did you Belgian followers watched the game yesterday ?

How intense and thrilling was this game between BEL-RUS ?

So glad we made it to the next rounds ! Thanks to wonderboy Origi.
