De Living

click to see where de Living is at

Just a quick snapshot from my current whereabouts ; de Living is situated in the recently implemented city garden in the Harmonie neighbourhood.

The space - previously used as a accommodation for the local elderly - is now the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee and newspaper, somewhere to have lunch or apéro after work.

I had a roast beef sandwich with parmesan cheese and truffle mayo with my ever typical cappuccino. 

Loved it ! 

I wanna STAY here forever ..

Ever since the Nationalestraat has officially reopened after restoration, fabulous new shops arise in the fashion district. Near the MoMu and Fashion Academy, STAY opened it's doors a couple of weeks ago.

This is my kind of shop : beautiful brands - a coffee space in the back of the store and pretty much everything is for sale ! 

Seriously love their concept. This boutique bar also organises workshops, tastings and a Sunday brunch. You even can 'rent' the venue for a private shopping night : enjoy an evening of shopping, tasting and relaxing with your besties ! 

Cool idea, right ?

Pop in their store when you hit Antwerpen and meet Tinne and Stéphanie Coucke yourself ; submerge in their stunning shop at the Nationalestraat 49 {and like them on Facebook too}

Graanmarkt Komedieplaats 5 !

Graanmarkt 13 moved their shoestock to a new location on Komedieplaats number 5 in Antwerp.
This beautiful house is stashing loads of shoesboxes filled with tidbits your feet will love !
Isabel Marant, Kenzo and many more labels will be exposed and appeal to women passing by.

I could not resist these Kenzo Vans ; my dismay in buying the Kenzo loafers online has been dissolved.
The RAS loafers will be next on my list and tiger overkill will stack my closet once again, sneakerwise.
Meanwhile, when you visit Antwerp, make sure to put this shop on your to do list.
