How To Be Parisian In California


Nicolas Ghesquière really knows how to bring the Parisian soul to the California state. On Thursday Louis Vuitton presented the Cruise Collection in the Bob Hope state and I must say that Nicolas impresses me every single time. Not only he revolutionized the most important symbol of the brand, the bags, but he also changed the brand itself.
The show counted with numerous celebrities and some of the brand's muses.

Opening with the perfect elements of a fluid skirts with criss-crossing belts that only exposed a little bit of the stomach.


Urs Fischer is the inspiration behind the chain motifs, the effect was perfected when combine with giant zipper pulls and leather straps.


The idea of wearing a magnifique purse was behind the several dresses and tops that featured shinny, embossed materials resembling exotic skins.


Hot pants will become the next it cloth item and Ghesquière made them perfect. If you don't fancy the hot pants, you can always choose the flow jumpsuit.


Medieval theme was there too, outfits featuring maxi-dresses with chainmail embellishments or groomed-leather shoulders, paired with fantastic lug-sole boots.


Let's not forget the amazing leather maxi dresses. I think the red one is perfect for the next red carpet event, maybe I'll take it.


Now let's look at the fantastic details and accessories that makes Nicola Ghesquière the most fantastic designer. Models used leather rings featuring the LV logo, a trend I will want to use. When it comes to bags, more is more, so why just carry one bag when you can carry two?



Birkenstocks will be forgotten thanks to the new LV ugly shoe. This is a trend I will not try, ugly shoes are not my thing but on the right person they can be perfect.


Looking at this collection makes me fall in love all over again with Louis Vuitton and Nicolas Ghesquière, he knows who to use the influences from the past and give them a modern twist, renewing the brand's accessories and not forgetting how the brand started, as a travel bag design.

xoxo, A

Since I can remember I've always had a negative response to vegetables, I would force myself to eat them because they are good for you. The problem was the taste, or more correctly, no taste at all. The ready to eat products found are not fresh and most of the times what you find is the basic same old salad with a not so healthy sauce. While shopping I came across an amazing brand, Sun&Vegs , and my idea about flavorless vegetables changed completely. Tasty. Delicious. Healthy. That's the correct way to describe Sun&Vegs. Fresh and natural ingredients, making the most unexpected combinations. Presenting different ranges, from salads, to microwave and pre-cooked meals, having each option different tastes and combinations. I have tasted three different meals, and let's say that Sun&Vegs conquered my taste buds (and my heart, of course). Moroccan tabulat was my first go to. I have to admit that I loved the presentation and the colors, the freshness of t

"Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" The dear White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland clearly didn't use Bond Street watches, otherwise he would always be on time. Myself, I'm not a crazy about watches. Back when I was a teenager I had a whole drawer full with watches, as an adult not so much until I met this amazing brand established in Britain. As you can see from the photos the design is elegance beautifully captured in a stainless steel case. AMAZING! But most importantly it's their superior quality that draws me, not to mention they are water resistant. And the best part, when it comes to the price tag, you are going to love it! I'm particularly attracted to a minimalist design, especially when it comes to watches, and their Mayfair Collection is the perfect timepiece for every woman around the globe, and even gentlemen.  Wouldn't this make the perfect Valentine's Day present? We think it would! That's why Bond Street

Today I woke up due to me iPad telling me there are new things on H&M to spend money, and I went crazy for the collection!! As you know, and probably seen on the runways, the use of fruits and plants on dresses and shirts is very fashionable. Ruffles is another must have, I always heard that the less is more, but when it comes to ruffles the more the merrier! ;) (ok, but don't excess, or you'll end up looking like a cake with legs and arms sticking out) Neon is seen in this collection too!! Now, let's see the collection, first take a look at  Conscious Collection (some of the items from this collection are a little bit to much on the price side) and to end look at the Trend Update Let's start working our back muscles to look good in this dress :) Very sexy, let's see some legs This dress is verry Dolce&Gabbana
