Today is the day: Rihanna’s collection is in River Island stores for you to plunder! I already had my chance and I might have gone in overdrive. But hey, it’s okay. Or isn’t it? Oops… Anyway, yesterday was niiiice. I got to see my Belgian blogger buddies and mingled with some Dutchies as well. Shopped, shot, pinned, drank. You know, the usual! A few things from the collection weren’t in store. Maybe they kept it aside for the official launch tomorrow. Apparently Rihanna was present at the event in the London River Island so no, we didn’t see Bad Gal Riri

Are you planning on buying something? Or did you already? Tell me, tell me!

But hey, I’m so much into fashion shows and sharing my thoughts on them lately, that you really can’t blame me for the fact that live streaming isn’t one of H&M’s strong suits. Someting they are good at, is clothing (obviously). Yesterday, the Swedish brand presented one of their collections for the first time at Paris Fashion Week. AW13 at H&M in three words? Black, country and nudes. Apparently black is the new black

Country, why? I saw a lot of Western influences – think fringe trousers (or wasn’t that fringe?!), over the knee riding boots and the Isabel Marant inspired embroidery. But I did like it. The only thing cliché about the show was definitely Cara’s quirky appearance. Yes, we know she’s hot but I’m already getting a bit sick of seeing her e-very-where.

All that aside, I liked it and I wish I could wear a few items already.

Last two pictures by Kim

My fellow fashion lovers, I’ve devoted quite a few blog posts to my repugnance of wearing jeans. Because of my blog, this has blissfully changed. I’ve come to my fashion senses that denim and other pants are a delight to wear. Or maybe it’s because I finally met my true partner in crime?

Last Friday, G-Star Antwerp celebrated Global Women’s Night: Slim Fit Edition. They wanted us to get to know their five different types of slim fits. But I got to know a lot more. Call it ignorance but I always thought G-Star’s collections were a lot more different. I was afraid to have a look inside their stores out of fear of finding horrible, horrible clothes (Sophie‘s language is starting to grow on me). But luckily for my ticket to denim heaven! I got to know the brand and I had the best fitting room experience ever known to mankind. No, not what you think!

Trying on pants, especially the jeans kind, sounds terrifying even thinking about it. So you can already imagine I was not eager to step into that wooden box with mirrors, they call dressing rooms. I asked for a denim with a lot of stretch and apparently, I was very lucky. G-Star developed a jeans so stretchy, you hardly notice you’re wearing one. Sounds like music to my ears! I came, I tried on and I conquered. I love the jeans, the cut, my bootie in it, the length, the color, its feel,… And you’ll definitely do to. Curious? It’s the 3301 Contour Skinny (Superstretch) in dark blue!

Nice to meet you, G-Star ^^
