Quizas: In the Mood for Love


The first time I've seen this movie, it was in original language, Mandarine, with Norwegian subtitles. I definitely don't speak mandarin and my Norwegian is quite basic.
Nevertheless, I haven't lost 1 minute of the film.
The music is beautiful, the context intriguing and the dresses simply amazing. So elegant in their Hong Kong late 50s mood; sexy and feminine, with their simple when not severe cuts. Since then, I've watched the movie many other times and it always brings back the same feelings.

My little eyebrow obsession

Many of you don't really care about eyebrow. Maybe you are so lucky that you don't have to manage hair and their growth. That is good talking about head(hair), not so exiting if not frustrating when you have to keep them under control over your face and over your body!

Eyebrow is for me one of that. They grow fast and I need to tide them and keep the shape frequently. Plus, since I've left London, I really miss the threading. The nr. one among the epilation method for small part of your body/face. So popular there, so unusual in Switzerland. The result was absolutely amazing, style "Middle Eastern Princesse". The skin, smooth and clean, the shape perfect, just finished with a final touch of trimming.


Anyway, I am now in one of those moment in which I need a style change (new country, new season, new job......) and I wanna try to get them thicker. I've got dark ones so the effect should be quite visible. My biggest enemy: the tweezers. Will I ever manage to stay away from them?

The Cool Hunter - New From Bill Amberg

A cool alternative to sportive backpack. I'm starting to think that I should buy a back pack . Many metropolitan mums have got one but the very sportive ones don't really match my style. Can this one be a good option?

Bright colours from Filippa K

Part of a series of 6 dresses produced in limited edition, the LARA dress. Draped on one shoulder, the cut at the back is just as gently revealing as sexy. ...
From 'THE DRESSES' LIMITED EDITION MAY 12th

Tres street, tres dark, simplement perfect


I'm already in love with these Chanel ankle boots. From the Fall 2011, it was difficult to pick up just one MUST HAVE, but after a tough selection I've ended up with these boots. A great balance of gothic mood and chic sportiveness. Just, let's not talk about the price!!
