Vintage escapade in BRUSSELS...

We were quite absent from this blog last week...

 
But we have a good excuse!!!

 
We were on vacation in Venice (Italy)!

 
That was an AMAZING trip...
 
 
We have a lot of pictures to share but I need time to select the best ones for you!

 
So to make you wait, here is a few pictures from a day we spent in Brussels in September...
 
 
As weather was supposed to be really nice, we decided to spend a day of shopping in the belgian capital just the day before...
 
 
We had a lot of sun but a coat is now needed... that was the first day of fall....
 
 
I bought this 40's coat many years ago in a vintage shop in Paris.
 
 
That's really a basic, large shoulders...
 
 
nice embroideries...
 
 
and the back is really breathless!
 
 
I wore a 40's velvet topper.
 
 
I like to wear red with black...
 
 
This vintage cotton dress is  from the 50's.
 
 
Black and red with really small pink flowers, LOVELY!
 

 
 My cute doggy from ERSTWILDER fits perfectly my outfit! 
 

 
Another lovely 40's tie for Sylvain!
 

 
We were a bit dissapointed with Brussels' flea market, it used to be really better.... but we spent a nice day!

 
And we still found some nice things: records, a toaster cover, 40's-50's dresses, an vintage amazing coat, a 50's hat, some vintage jewels....

 
We took those pictures in the park of  "cinquantaire", where there is a nice vintage car museum called AUTOWORLD, you must visit it if you go to Brussels!
 
Have you ever been in Brussels?
Do you often go to impromptu escapades?
