British Birthday Present


Well, well, well... If you want to win me over, conquer me completely, make me adore you and worship you, buy this pair of boots for my birthday. Date: March 30th. Yes I know I am so vain :)) but HEY mate it's about the UK. It's about sex, scotch and rock 'n' roll. It's about handsome guys with British accent. It's about my own peace and serenity.

Monday Photo: We Like It Smokey


Want to feel fierce? Flashy? Stunning? Want to surprise people, make ordinary boring girls envious and charming lads interested in a conversation with you about everything from physics to religion and pleasure? Well, I have the solution. The medication. The secret ingredient. Smokey-eyes! Dramatic smokey-eyes :-) Red lip-stick is optional, you can use it if it tickles your fancy BUT you have to say "yes" to black. And with this note I shall end this post.

Monday Photo: Lovely Spring


I love spring! I love all seasons actually... when it's summer and the sun is shining I enjoy it enormously because my body asks for lots of ice-cream, cocktails and fresh fruits... then autumn begins (I love dreary days and heavy rain more than anything. THAT is my kind of weather) and I suddenly feel vigorous because school starts and it's like something brand-new is stimulating me. Winter means Christmas, cinnamon, ginger-bread and cosy clothes... this is my least favourite season because I can't stand shivering while smoking, walking, breathing... shivering 24/7 actually. Now spring... well, I love it! Not only because I'm born in spring, but also because the great majority of my friends are born in March, April or May (lots of parties) and because the freshness of flowers and nature inspires me a lot, even though I'm not a romantic girl at all. Too many things about me in one post... sorry! :-D

New York Fashion Week Spring 2011- A Short Recap

   There's a reason why we all wait with such pleasure for spring to arrive and enchant us with its fresh flowers and sun rays. Not only is "the departure" of snow important when thinking of spring, but also the festive atmosphere in New York, London, Milan and Paris. Why festive? Because we finally get acquainted with the latest trends in fashion as far as autumn is concerned. I shall begin by making a short summary of the most divine collections presented at New York Fashion Week.
    I've noticed that people tend to associate autumn with dark colours and dreary days but they couldn't be more wrong. Labels such as DKNY, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, Carolina Herrera and Diane von Furstenberg aim at teaching women to be cheerful and adore electric tones. Another thing which you should bare in mind is that fur is also popular amidst this autumn's trends. Oscar de la Renta, Anna Sui and Donna Karan seem to particularly take a fancy to it. However, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Alexander Wang stick to leather and opt for motorcycle jackets. XXL jumpers are also very popular (needless to say that they're also cosy and comfy) and Michael Kors and Vera Wang like them. For sure. Marc Jacobs seems to be in a league of its own with its dotted materials as well as Y-3 which reminds us of Scotland and advise us not to throw our tartan skirts/trenches away. They will always be in! 
   In conclusion, the range of styles is extremely wide and that certainly means that you are at an advantage. For whatever your look is, you will find a possibility of being fashionable this autumn.
