Bruxelles, Belgique: avenue Louise, place Stéphanie, Toison d’or

Déco top et simplissime de Noël, la façade de la boutique Hermès : boulevard de Waterloo 50, 1000 Bruxelles. A la recherche d’un shopping plus rock’n’roll, filez avenue Louise chez Zadig & Voltaire (n°92), Comptoir des Cotonniers (n°76), Gérard Darel  (n°23)  and  Neuhaus  (n°61A)  pour les excellents chocolats belges.

La terrasse enneigée du Sofitel Brussels Le Louise : très peu pour moi! Je préfère son agréable Crystal Lounge, pour un verre uniquement. Ok déco déjà vue et revue, mais le  feu de cheminée apporte une touche relaxante et on s’y sent bien : 40 Avenue de la Toison d’Or, 1050 Bruxelles. Ci-dessous, une petite curiosité : l’abribus high tech (?) avec télé intégrée et en boucle la promo… Bof…

Shopping in Tokyo

For packaging lovers: a Tokyo shopping of everyday objects. Forget your Transformers, for this inflatable balloon: a light, disposable and 100% friendly must have. Better than Aibo!

Nice guys those brooms! Girly pink colour for the young housewifes, under 50 years old. Course, the concept is absolutely not sexist at all! Still for girls only (gomenasai ladies!): housework aerodynamic “shoes”. I don’t know for you, but for me: no way!

More “Easy” or “Irritated”? Irritated looks really cool! Sorry kids, I keep those small cuddly toys for me!

Wow! The second picture of tinting packaging reminds me a Corean melo soap. Have you noticed how serious and absolutely not sexy are the married couples tinting boxes? What’s the most frightening in this packaging concept: the depressive marketing’s view of 30’s years old couples, or having “already” white hair, or having the same tinting husband and wife, or both? What about a golden glitter domino to bring back a bit of imaginativeness?

Shisheido in “supa” (supermarket)! Next: expensive crazy sushi USB keys.
