Tried, Tested and True
First off, I need to apologise ahead of time to those models I have encountered full of personality and full stomachs, but, after being backstage recently at the Antwerp Academy's final fashion show, I have to sadly confirm a couple of cliches.
I discovered a great new members-only sales site for which AitnP readers have received an exclusive invitation.
Elise won our previous Model for a Day contest, and received a full-on model treatment at Karen Devriese's home studio. Read all about her experience, and take a look at the fab results!
Oh the sacrifices we make to deliver you the best stories and the articles most fun to read! When I spotted the poster of De Cliént's Total Make Over, I knew immediately this was something I had to try out. After all, wouldn't Antwerp visitors like to know what to expect before they booked themselves the ultimate treatment at Antwerp's renowned celebrity salon? Find out after the jump...
A little while ago, I tested Karen Devriese's service: Fotokado.be. On her website, you can buy gift certificates to surprise friends and loved ones with a professional photoshoot. Of course you can also spoil yourself, like I did with the model-for-a-day treatment. Lucky for you, Antwerpisthenewparis.com gets to give away this treatment on a regular basis. The first one to win the Fotokado.be certificate was Delphine Callens, and you can read about her experience and see her pictures after the jump!
Some dream about it more often than others, but we have all dreamt about a closet full of it-bags, Chanel goodies and high class purses, haven't we? Unfortunately, only a select club actually has the funds to purchase the bags of their dreams, and I'm not a part of it. But a solution exists for people like me, who want to take accessorizing to a whole new level, but are on a strict budget...
Granted, I don’t exactly look up to Jessica Simpson as some sort of style icon. She’s a little too bombshell for my taste, and I sure as hell would not be able to work her kind of cleavage. What I do love about the singer-gone-actress, is her long, voluptuous, curly hair. Jessica never appears anywhere without being groomed to perfection, whether she’s rocking a casual and flirty or a stylish and sophisticated look. This is all thanks to her best friend, Ken Paves, who is at this point the most famous celebrity hair dresser in Hollywood.
This is the first episode in a series of articles describing my experience with several fashionable services. By now you might know Antwerpisthenewparis.com is not your regular blog or webmagazine. We strive to inform you about all things glamorous and fashionable in and outside of Antwerp, so that you are up-to-date. But above all, we take care to form our own opinion about everything, so that you can rely on our personal points of view instead of on commercially-inspired propaganda. That is exactly how we approached this series of articles. There’s a lot of fun to be had out there, but we want you to know the truth about everything so that you know precisely what to expect!
