Best Fashion
I can't really speak for womens' fashion, nor fashion in general. I still own T-shirts that are over 10 years old... However, if you really want to go shopping, Antwerp would be the place. Great for a day trip, pick up some haute coiture and a few diamonds. In Brussels, there are a few places to hit: generally Ixelles (Avenue Louise), or for the more frugal, H&M on Rue Neuve. The name of the blog "Belgique Geek Chic" comes from the look I am sporting in the picture above. It says, "I am aware of my appearance. I am trying to look good. I am chic. I am also geek." Almost all men in Belgium (if I can generalize) sport this look -- the main element is the sweater over top of a button down collared shirt. Preferably all matching colours: pants, socks, shirt and sweater. Can be worn with Pumas or any sort of dress shoe. The best part is the versatility -- you can tie the sweater around your neck if the evening is too warm (i.e. circa 1980s). I liked to wear this look occasionally around town, if only to blend in :-)
