yesterday my boyfriend and me went to cocoon '09. we already went there two years ago and to be honest, it was a bit of a dissapointment back then. but we had free tickets and we're always up for a little trip to bruxelles, so we went anyway.
most things aren't really worth mentioning, but some things are:
the levis' decorated walls... funny little details!
gorgeous marimekko wallpaper designs by hooked on walls!
if i had too much money, i would buy those (probably expensive) blankets, just to get the box... so cute!
in the afternoon, we strolled around the city a bit and we came across this second hand bookstore, with a nice shop sign:
by the way, we could really use some shopping tips for brussels. we always end up in the same cliché places... and there probably is a hell of a lot more to see than that... we already have got our (mostly english) bookstore-route, but what about second hand, clothing and shoe-stores? anyone?
Les petits riens, Rue Amèricaine, Ixelles
ReplyDeletearound DOD, chaussée de Louvain, St Josse (but not so fancy; at DOD u can find nice things though, other DOD rue du Bailli, Ixelles, also nice area!)
