Art & Fashion event

Last week I attended the art & fashion event at the Noordeinde in The Hague. As many of you will know, the Noordeinde is the location of the working palace of King Willem Alexander. A "posh" area with beautiful art galleries, fashion stores, restaurants and bars.

The orange carpet was rolled out and boy oh boy... it was a royal event indeed! From circus artists to jazz musicians, from wood-fired pizzas to fresh oysters and Champagne... they had it all! Children were even allowed to paint on the shop window of a well-known art gallery. How's that for involving kids in the Creative Industries?!

Unfortunately I missed out on the fashion shows... but the secret gardens, including beautiful plants and flowers definitely made up for it! Next time you're in The Hague (and staying for example at the Hilton, Park or Paleis Hotel) take a walk through this lovely area.

While you're there... buy a pair of tango shoes at Lisadore:

A great store for (wedding) gifts is Philippona:

To finish in style... Restaurant Pastis is closeby and highly recommended:
