ALTHOUGH the Mercado Central is my favourite on Saturday mornings, the market in Russafa has, in their fish market, a low-key place to order a glass of cava and oysters right where you pick up your mussels and shrimp for the weekend. We've tried it once already, and it felt rather decadent and the perfect way to begin the weekend. Of course, if you're looking for something a little less casual, you can also wait for a seat or a place at the counter at Ricard Camarena's Central Bar at the Mercado Central. We've been to the latter many times and the atmosphere is always lively and the service great. We are, actually, in the middle of compiling a city guide of some of our favourite places, along with working on a few other major projects at the moment. We can't wait to share with you everything that's been happening over the past few months.

Anne-Laure Mais is like your fun, effortlessly chic French best friend. The fashion editor, based between Paris and London, has been running her fashion blog, Adenorah, since 2009.

We adore her decidedly seventies vibe both in her Parisian apartment and her style, which includes high-waisted flares and brown velvet blazers, vintage denim and easy knits, and a beret from time to time for good measure ...
In 1990s London, rave was king of the night, and Turnmill was the first club to get a 24-hour operation license. The warehouse operation became a must-attend hotspot for fashionable nightcrawlers of the dancing kind. Themed nights with names including Xanadu and Trade took over its nonstop programming, filling the foggy walls with revelers and electronic grooves no matter the hour.
Over coffee before work this morning, P and I were discussing Kanye West’s most recent mad twitter rants, in which he also shared a few photos of his Hidden Hills home that he designed with Belgian collector, curator, designer and antiquarian Axel Vervoordt.
I wanted to add to my sculptures these antique chandeliers to make them more exclusive and special, both for the brass components value and for the difficulty of the sculpture process that must be entirely done by hand around the piece of the chandelier. To make the composition even more magical I left the electric cable as if it were torn, as if the animal had broken the piece recently, but the light is still on.
