Entries from January 2009 ↓

The other day I received an email from our friend, Ellington. She was telling me about a great found so I’m sharing it with you (since today it all seems to be about sharing…). StyleShake. How often you went searching for something very specific, something you had very clearly in your mind but you didn’t [...]

While I was searching for an appropriate Friday break, one to bring the brightest smile on your face and give you at least 3 minutes of relaxation, I received a short movie from my Adored Husband. I pressed play, out of reflex. Then I saw: 16minutes 23 seconds! Oh! What have I done? I was [...]

Givenchy’s Haute Couture perspective over the 2009 Summer is a pretty somber yet pure one. Ricardo Tisci’s 29 models are so bride-ish and pharaoh-ish, I could literally freeze just by looking at it!
