Summer lovin' tag

Hey beauties ! hope you're all enjoying spring my favourite season , i just love spring i automatically become more active i spring clean and reorganise everything get everything refreshed and back to life after being lazy all day during the winter cuddling with my cup of tea and watching movies don't we all ? because summer is right around the corner (super excited !!) i wanted to create a fun summer tag to sure with you some of my favourite little things ..

I tag : Sara in Dubai , Belle pearl , that red lip  . 

feel free to do this tag and post your link in the comments !

   

 1. favourite summer scent ?

this had to be Exotica by Roberto Cavali , it literally smells like summer paradise so summery and refreshing with a dash of fruit maybe a hint of floral , ahh so good !

2.favourite lip product ?

to avoid dry lips during the hot season i found my self reaching for this maybelline baby lips lip balm  in "pink punch" such a pretty pink and very moisturising .

3. favourite nail polish ?

i usually go for pastels on daily basis i feel like they are more settle and less attention drawing but its summer right !! aint the time for safe choices , I'm soo loving this nail polish by Sally Hansen in "Fuchsia power " 

4. favourite shades ?

Loving these shades by Aldo , very similar to the miu miu ones ! i really  wanted to try them and see if i can rock them because i really like the miu miu ones and i wasn't sure they would complement the shape of my face and i was right i do like the style but it doesn't complement my face at all I'm glad i tried these before splurging on the miu miu's .

5.favourite body moisturiser ?

I do however prefer body butters but for the summer i went for something a little lighter and a body cream which I'm liking so far by Victoria's secret i have another one but i don't like its formula its from a previous summer collection i found this one so much better and the scents lasts till like the end of the day (thumbs up to Victoria's secret for improving the products).

6. favourite body spray ?

body sprays are a must during summer (the only season i get to use them up :) its just keeps my body cooler i guess and refreshed thought the day I've been using the body spray tin the same scent with the body cream (I always match) in "Such a flirt" lovely scent i used to think all Victoria's secret scents are the same but this one is different i thought it had jasmine in it but it turned out to be black orchid and star fruit which is a change from the typical summer scents .

7. random beauty item ?

the only reason there is a random item question is because of this cute mini brush holder by Victoria's secret its so small and cute it hold 4 brushes a face brush an angled blush brush and 2 eyeshadow brushes , i only use the face brush and the blush brush to adjust my makeup throughout the day its very convenient to throw in your purse rather that putting your brushes in your makeup bag than all your makeup gets dirty .

8. favourite summer drink ?

definitely mojitos ! I'm a mojito fanatic love me a mojito all the time anytime , i even started making my own at home and they all turned out pretty good .

Manolo Blahnik Makes Up Backstories for His Shoes ??

fact about shoe master  Manolo Blahnik is that he lives with tens of thousands pair of shoes , and refers to them as "members of an extended sexy family." But it looks like his adorable level of mania is approaching certifiably-bonkers territory. While sketching design ideas, the maestro tells Colin McDowell from the Business of Fashion:

She is from Dar es Salaam and she has left her husband who beats her, and is now on the way to the station where she will get onto the train that will bring her to her lover’s arms and freedom.

He really knows how to paint a picture. Of a wedge heel, he says,

This is for a woman from Rio. So Carmen Miranda! Very passionate, a little vulgar, but always laughing and ready for fun. She loves the raffia roses on the heels. They make her feel free to spend all of her husband’s money … This is borderline Liz Taylor on a bad day … This woman is a little prim — like Edinburgh … This sandal is for a beautiful Italian girl …

stories or no stories a Manolo Blahnik pair of shoes will remain a master piece and a work of art .

New in : Blacky Selma

Hey gorgeous people! hope y'all are doing great , so I've been Looking for a nice and convenient everyday bag and i've been looking around since fall and i had my eye on this  Michael Kors selma bag i thought its great for everyday use the size is good , the quality and it has been very trendy since it came out in the fall , I thought it was a great purchase and so many women out there agree with me because it sells out fast specially the black colour , found mine at galeries lafayette which is a french department store at The Dubai Mall .

The Chanel jacket

Coco Chanel’s original  tweed jacket was inspired by men jackets it had some very defined details: overcast and topstitched seams for an even surface, a gilt chain weighing down the inside hem of the jacket so as to take the shape of the body of the wearer instead of the other way around, she created it to free women at her time from tight uncomfortable cloths and permit them to move freely while looking chic and feminine.

"Enabling women to move with ease, to not feel like they’re in costume. Not changing attitude or manner, depending on their dress. It’s very difficult. And the human body is always moving."Gabrielle Chanel.

Its a timeless piece that will never be out of style it can be worn with anything , anywhere , at any time !

Chanel wore the same tweed suit all day, changing only the scarves and jewelry for the evening.

sketch by Karl Lagerfeld

When designer  Karl Lagerfeld joined Chanel as the Artistic Director in 1983, he stepped into the shoes of Coco Chanel with ease by following a similar working style of creating for tomorrow while deriving from the past.
