Lock me up and throw away the key!!!!!

Image
In mood for shopping? well this clutch is definitly at my wishlist, i felt in love when Louis Vuitton show them, on 2011 winter runway. My  ultimate object of desire is the iconic Lockit bag, created in 1958 and reinterpreted in a myriad guises. T he Lockit's  handcuff, made the bag inseparable from its wearer, it's a  whole new spin on the concept of the wristlet clutch. Don't you guys love this sixties look?                        back to the golden age!!                                              (and dear our Angelina always looking hot and trendy)                                                 Zara has this amazing substitute for the trend!!!     ...

Marie Antoinette in Lisbon

Image
Me and Ana love Marie Antoinette, why doesn't feel like one during our afternoon snack attack?  Well Poison d'Amour has the solution. It places at Rua da Escola Politécnica, 32, Príncipe Real - Lisbon. This place is real poison, the decoration takes you to another century, starting with the furniture, is vintage in a modern colours, and finishing on the amazing tea cups set (that you can buy as well), but of course the main character is the PASTRY! the cakes are made with the finnest french techniques, so can taste good and look goog! Does it sounds mouthwatering? See by yourself Aqui pelo blog, amamos a Marie Antoinette, e porquê não nos sentirmos como uma verdadeira Marie durante o lanche? A Poison d'Amour parece ser o local perfeito! situada na rua da Escola Politécnica nº32 no Príncipe Real em Lisboa. Esta pastelaria é um autêntico inferno para quem está de dieta, não dá para ficar-se apenas com um bolinho. A decoração é espetacular, desde a mobília...

Trend: Wedge Sneaker

Image
So I've seen lately on magazines, blogs this new type of sneaker. AND I ADORE IT!! I must admit that I'm not a sneaker girl, I haven't worn them since I came to Portugal and study Law! All the time I wear heels, and only have one pair of ballerina flats! I sold my soul to the devil when I put on my first pair of heels (yes, I got this quote from The Devil Wears Prada movie ;)). Back to the sneakers, it's a great idea for people like me to wear heels and at the same time be comfortable, and you can use them everywhere, countryside, beach, city. I started searching info about them, and fell head over heels for the ones designed by Isabel Marant (one of my fav designers, gotta write about her), but I must admit that they're really expensive for only a pair on sneakers (yes, yes, I know they are Isabel Marant, but still), $600 is a little bit to much, if you ask me.                     (I...

The City of Seven Hills - Lisbon

Image
By now, all you followers know that we right to you from the great capital city of Lisbon and the largest city of Portugal. So, today, we decided that we should share a little bit about where we live and why you should visit it. Situated at the mouth of the Tagus River and is the westernmost capital of a mainland European country. Lisbon is known as the city of the seven hills, because around it you van actually count seven hills. It's a great place to live, cause you're near the sea, so you have beaches, but at the same time you have a cosmopolitan life, which I love. Hate the countryside, only can stand it for 4 days tops. I'm a city girl. Lisbon is near another great places you should visit, Sintra is one of them, very romantic with the Pena National Palace. About the climate... On winter, is really cold but there's no need to use a snow suit, can use turtle necks, boots, fashionable things. The best time is summer, during this time HOT is the word. We are ...

make it up!!

Image
Well well followers, yesterday I was at a living photo shoot at a bar in Algarve, it's a new concept, where the make up artist and the hairstylist treat the costumers with a new look and then they take pictures. I was amazed about the amount of make up tools they were using and about the mac make-up trolley around the side. OKAY the whole thing make me more interested in make up products, and how to apply them , but it takes a big investment in good products, and it took me years to get all the tools (that I thought I need), and the crazy amount of eye shadows and lipstick, but honestly after yesterday, I'm not even close. Here comes my favorites: Followers, ontem estive num living photoshoot num bar no Algarve, é um novo conceito, onde maquilhadores e cabeleireiros "tratam" dos clientes dando-lhe um novo visual e onde de seguida tiram fotos. fiquei estupefacta com a quantidade de pincéis que utilizaram para fazer a maquilhagem bem como um trolley gigante recheado ...

I want to lose myself in L.A.!! After watching this collection by H&M I WANT TO GET LOST IN L.A.! Bright colors that look amazing with a bright healthy tan and Californian highlights. The colors you see in this H&M collection, the use of Indian heritage print of swirling curling shapes was seen on various catwalks, from Jil Sander to Emilio Pucci. On the beach parties, white looks super chic but if you add this scarf your on another level and stand out on the crowd! Don't forget the scarf, it pulls the look together!! Even with a cute bikini, black, white, or any other color that doesn't collapse with the colors seen on the scarf, you look very chic!!
