Exciting stuff! DAA and Vintage Shoeparty!

Hey guys! Just dropping you a line to tell you about some cool stuff coming up in my city, Antwerp! First up, the DAA fashion days! DAA stands for Designers Against Aids. All kinds of amazing designers and celebs have done collections for this good cause in the past. Did you regret not buying that cute Katy Perry for H&M against Aids romper?

You might find this - and MUCH MUCH more - at the DAA fashion days starting today, ending next saturday! All kinds of designercollections that donated (part of) their profits to anti-Aids causes are being brought together at Deurne, Antwerp for YOU to buy! So go check it out, shop for cute things that aren't anywhere to be found in stores and for once, feel good about spending money! After all, you are supporting an amazing cause. In my experience, Aids is one of those things that get so much media attention to the extent of provoking a "yeah, I know, who cares" response in young people. Aids-infection rates have been rising again the past years, so a renewal of the attention is very relevant. I'm not sure whether I'll be able to go myself, but you might see me there on Saturday! For more info (location, times etc), follow the link. The whole DAA is supported by PAA, Party Against Aids, and those guys have LOTS more amazing stuff coming up including an art auction, so check out this site for more on how to have fun and support a good cause!

My second cool thing I'm telling you about is the ISSHOES vintage shoe party! November 11th is the date, and I've already contacted my girlfriends because this is too good to pass up on. More than 1000 pairs of vintage shoes, boots, belts and bags with prices ranging from 10 to 45 euro, and all of those goodies brought together at a ladies only PARTY??? I told you that shit was too good to pass up on. I know you girls won't be able to resist the temptation so I'll see you guys there!! For more info, follow the link. I'll be hunting for a cute clutch, some girly, ladylike pumps, loafers and a pair of classic boots with a small heel, preferably in a bright brown. But who am I kidding, I'll probably love everything I'll lay eyes on and I'll have to ask my girlfriends to hold ma earrings because I'll be pouncing on that shit and also because if they are holding my earrings, they don't have any hands free to claim some goodies for themselves. MOAR FOR ME
Can't wait!

  3. Vintage schoenen! Dat klinkt echt geweldig :) Helaas heb ik al heel snel tentnamens waar ik heel hard voor moet leren, dus geen shopfestijn voor mij :(
