Time flies by.


Found some pictures of France, last time with my family in october 2011 - a long time ago - And I have a feeling that I really need to go back and visit my grandfather. He's the best.

Be my valentine.


Hi!

Tomorrow is Valentines day. Have a nice time with your wife/husband, girlfriend/boyfriend. 

PS; listening to this beautiful song of Etta James describes some good old love. 
Love without the obligation of giving presents, flowers or perfume.

That's just what I'll have tomorrow evening and I'm really looking forward. 

L. x!



Etta James - At last


At last..

At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Oh yeah yeah
At last

The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Oh yeah yeah
You smiled, you smiled
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
for you are mine...

At Last..

Bruxelles est belle.



Last week I got an invitation from a friend of my mother to go to Brussels (at Bozar) and watch the opera 'Drama Queens' by Joyce Didonato. For me an unknown American opera singer, but in the operascene, a real star. I don't know a lot about opera, but what I do know is that I really enjoyed it. Audience shouted Bravissimo and Bravo followed by a standing ovation. Grandissimo! 


Note: The dress she's wearing during the concert was made by Vivienne Westwood. Love it!


I slept in the appartment coup de coeur, close to Zavel and when I woke up I went to the exhibition of Yves Saint Laurent on top of the Kunstberg in the ING Cultural Centre. (Koningsplein, 6) For this exhibition, the Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent Foundation is exceptionally showing a large number of creations from its collection, most of which have never been exhibited before. Jewellery and accessories, as well as drawings, sketches and other unpublished documents come together to reveal the alchemy of the Saint Laurent style. Definitely worth a visit!



Jaques Brel - Bruxelles


C´était au temps où Bruxelles chantait
C´était au temps du cinéma muet
C´était au temps où Bruxelles rêvait
C´était au temps où Bruxelles bruxelait
