I'm loving these pastels tones popping up in new window displays everywhere around town.

The brands I'm currently obsessed with are Magdalena, Isabel Marant and these hand knit jackets by .. me ! 

I've been on the outlook for a nice outfit for a few upcoming weddings pretty soon. As I really like these warm cosy knits and sweaters, I could totally see myself wearing these with a nice midi skirt.

Think Olivia Palermo's wedding and you have a pretty clear picture of what I like or want.

A small post in between lessons, studying and assignments. 

Made this jacket for my friend Valy ; she willingly posed for me .. she looked absolutely amazing in each color. She preferred the grey one. 

Lovely !

Slow Knit

happy to show you the result of my knitting of these last few days.

Still working on the ajour or lace pattern in blush pink {this particular one will take a bit longer as it requires more counting and silent moments to make it}

Maybe it's a good moment too to tell you about this little webshop I've set up : so many people asked me where to buy these handmade scarfs. My close friends and family know where to find me but often fashionista's all over the globe mail me through my contactform to inform about these beauties and if possible, make one sur mésure .. so here it is, a safe way to order and purchase online (I work with Paypal)

seeyouat9 online shop 

I'll promise to update the shop on a weekly basis ; so bear with me ..

Keep in mind every item is handmade so it might take a while for the next big thing to appear online {meanwhile, you can follow me and the stuff I'm making through my Instagram account}

Made by Bernadette

Last night, my friend Nathalie wore the most beautiful knitted jacket I've ever seen.

Am searching for something like this for ages, but somehow the colour wasn't right or the model did not do it for me.

When Nathalie entered the room I was in complete 'aaahhwe' over her outfit.

I hung onto her sleeve for the rest of the evening :-)

So comfy. 

Being both fashion addicted and me being a keen knitter myself, she let me into her little mohair secret.

The jacket is handmade by a lady who works from home ; she went to Brussels' based ICON store and asked if they were interested in selling them. 

And so Made by Bernadette became an instant hit.
