New sales items added to the FFF shop

14 May

Dear readers,

Today I have selected a few items to put up for sale on our brand new SALE page.

As you can see it is mostly very summer-inspired stuff like dresses or light tops and some shoes. Later on we might still add some accessories like scarfs, handbags etc, so be sure to keep checking out the SALE page!

Especially wih the Essentiel stocksale coming up next week (check all the details here), it’s time to clean up and get my closet ready for adding some new finds.

The items will also be put online on our Flemish Fashion Freaks Facebook group, so be sure to join us there if you like any of the item.

Happy shopping !

With love, Nona

Essentiel stocksale

14 May

Dear readers,

THAT moment of the season has arrived again when I tend to go all wild (shopping-wise), which has not happened to me very often at the blessed age of 29 : I’d like to think I’ve left those days of wildly shouting at everything I love behind me, as I am not a teen no more, those days are loooong gone, haha, maybe for the better. There is yet one exception to be made to my rule of not screaming as a little girl and it’s getting closer, IIIIIIIII… Woops, I did it again, didn’t I?

You’ve might have guessed it already by reading the title of this post, but it’s Essentiel stocksale-time again, yeeha!  So buckle up and get ready !

Essentiel-zomercollectie-2011-c

My all-time favorite brand Essentiel organizes a stocksale every 6 months, one edition in December and one in May.

There is always a HUGE interest so many people stand there queuing up already an hour before the official opening, which (especially in the cold month of December) is what I call a hardcore dedication to the brand… The queus are sometimes so long that people have to wait outside for a coupe of hours.

I stood there plenty of times with those die-hards in the rain or snow, with the thought of my future Essentiel bargains keeping me warm, but every time again it’s more than worth it.

We are yet to see the first time where I can persist all those pretty clothes and end up returning home with NO purchases at all… This is a moment of the season that I absolutely live for, especially as my current budget does not allow me to purchase those pretty items at full price…. I soooooo need a job ! To sponsor my Essentiel cravings obviously.

Now to the most important info : where and when?
Friday 24/05/2013 :  9h – 19h
Saturday 25/05/2013 : 10h-18h

Terbekehofdreef 47 , 2610 Wilrijk
Do not wear any Essentiel the day of your visit!

Hope to see you there !

With love, Nona

NEW LAUNCH at FlemishFashionFreaks : SALE corner

13 May

Dear readers,

After quite a long period of blogging-silence (due to an extensive and still ongoing search for a new job), there’s something new to intoduce to you on FlemishFashionFreaks: we have created a small online wardrobe for you to shop in whenever you please, and everything will be sold at very small prices! Great news, right?

sale_bags

Our brand spanking new SALE page, which you can find at the FFF homepage by clicking SALE (next to the ‘about’ button) ,  is in fact a little piece of Flemish Fashion Freaks that will be available for your eyes and wardrobes only : we will regularly upload pictures of our (often unworn) fashion items for you to browse and shop.

The offer can range from a cheap H&M bargain to a more expensive Balenciaga bag, so keep regularly checking our SALE page, you never know what might show up.

This way we can give our closet some well deserved breathing space by removing the items we have not yet worn (a lot) , aswell as create a new -fashion-fund for the next shopping sprees.

See anything you like? Then do not hesitate to contact me:

- Leave a message in the comment box below the sales items

- Join us at our Facebook group FlemishFashionFreaks, where all the sales items will also be uploaded

-Send me a tweet @flemishfashionf

Please do mind that shipping costs are additional for the client and we do not accept refunds.  First come, first served, no lay-aways.

Happy shopping !

With love, Nona

P.S. The first sales items will be uploaded from Thursday 15th of May 2013.

Get your discount @ Solden

20 Dec

Dear readers,

Christmas is almost here, huray ! It’s the perfect time of the year to get together with your loved ones to share a good meal, lovely conversations and of course a few presents too!

But some of us do not have the time nor courage to go visit the crowded shopping streets and malls these days for those presents and a party outfit. However, a simple solution is at hand in the form of buying your presents online! Webshops to the rescue !

Since right after Christmas the winter sales are also starting, I  think it is such a shame to pay full price for my outfit/gifts while a week later every item will be discounted…

Also for this ‘problem’ a handy solution has been created: what if you could get discounts for your favorite online shops like Asos, YOOX, 3 Suisses , Zalando, La Redoute (and much more) every day of the year? Sounds like a pretty good deal to me !

I discovered a wonderful site  Solden where all the valid discount codes for your favorite shops have been put together, so you can easily find every code you need to claim your online discounts. Even better, you can subscribe to their newsletter and you’ll receive all the discount codes per email !

Below are some items from my personal Xmas wishlist, which are all available with whopping reductions from 10 to 50% on retail prices.

So what are you waiting for, shop shop shop ! ;-)


YOOX – 15% extra discount with every online purchase

Black silk embellished top from 3.1 Phillip Lim

YOOX Phillip Lim 138E bis

Original price 275€ –> Current price 138€ –> With the discount code from Solden this top only costs 117,30€

I bought 3 soft and colourful cardigans (green, dark blue and purple) and a printed silk wrap dress… Quite the loot if you ask me !

The best news is that from tomorrow (Friday 30th of November) the Essentiel stocksale will be open for everyone who’s interested as today was the VIP sale.

So get your shop on ad score some pretty items to kickstart your weekend! Maybe we’ll see each other there as I’m returning tomorrow to help a friend find some items.

Let’s Go To Ibiza

1 Nov

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

People who know me a bit longer than today, also know that I’m an old hippie with a love of denim and clothes that make me dream of foreign shores like Venice Beach, Bali, Essaouira and Ibiza. While I was reading this months’ copy of US Vogue (with Rihanna on the cover wearing a superb red Valentino dress) I noticed an article written by Hamish Bowles about a renovated finca in Ibiza that belongs to Swedish ex-model, stylist and Vogue editor Yvonne Sporre.  What interested me most were the clothes that graced some of the pictures, so when I read that everything was handmade in Bali I couldn’t contain myself anymore and started to do a bit of cyber research, resulting in finding the designer’s website: yvonne-sporre.fr, an online retailer (Luisa Via Roma) and the photos that you can see in the slideshow. As S/S 12 seems to be the most recent collection that’s online the clothes look very summery indeed, but that’s not really a problem, is it? In fact, the more summer clothes and blue skies the better – each & every day of the year!

Love & light,

Ninette

Good lord almighty, the more pieces I see of this collection, the more I’m falling in love with it. Those pristine white leather high tops with rubber soles! The painted boots! The guitar bag (even if I don’t own a guitar)! It’s all beyond delicious. Beat you to the store on November 15th!

And here are the first outfits by Maison Martin Margiela @ H&M for men!

All The Looks Of Maison Martin Margiela For H&M!

17 Oct

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Are you as excited as we are for the new collaboration of Maison Martin Margiela with H&M? We were already and it’s only 10 times worse now that we’ve seen these photos-we know already that this is driving us straight into financial ruin. And to say that we’re still waiting to see more of the men’s collection… Which pieces do you like best?

Love & light,

Ninette
