Phillip Lim and Tatami Sandals

Birkenstock will soon sell some of the most beautiful casual sandals I’ve ever seen.

I bet they’re all comfy and would do wonders with a pair of jeans or shorts and a white tank! When I first saw these sandals I so wanted so I imagine that I’ll be thinking about them for few days!

There to meet the gladiator trend, these Phillip Lim designed Navaho style sandals for Tatami will be available in 13 styles for women and 7 for men, priced from $126 to $225.

I wonder if they do some for kids too! I’d wish a pair or two for my toddlers. What do you say? These sandals get to you? Or you find them too casual to be impressed?

What makes all those gorgeous looks on the Red Carpet? Besides plastic surgery, of course?

Well, I came across this piece of news and thought that you had to know, especially because the products aren’t all uber-preciouss. Here it goes:

The mascara used by Angela Levin (Chanel Makeup Artist) it’s Chanel Inimitable.

I’m a big fan, went from YSL to Lancôme and then to this exquisite Inimitable and stuck to it.
She also said this mascara goes right after the Sublimage Sérum. Read more…

How about a make-up lesson? Eve Pearl, multiple Emmy Award Winner Artist has an idea or two about how to make every woman feel like one of the celebrities she’s doing the makeup for.

This video clip was suggested by one dear reader – Adriana Josina (thank you!) and I thought a Friday would be the best day to post it out since many of us we’re getting ready for a week-end out. So, ladies, look your best!

When I grow up, I promise I won’t get a house like that! It’s far an understatement to say that it’s a pink nightmare!

These pictures are actually from someone’s home! Someone who’s still alive and didn’t seem to be affected by this pink overdose – Betsey Johnson.

My husband send me an article yesterday and when I saw the film that accompanied that posting, I just knew I had to share it with you.

I could hardy wait until today, the big Friday when I’m always suggesting you a break. Today it will not be a scene from a movie, a dance or a piece of music (even if you kinda find them altogether in this video here). It will be about life.
Please take this break with me and don’t forget about what is most important for you in your existence. Things just tend to disappear in flashes…

I had, some say, a normal life, a blessed one, for I came to find true love and happiness with my family, alongside the most wonderful man in the world. But until that moment, I saw and lived many things that brought me to my present self (with good parts and bad parts).

This movie is about what changed people’s life. All in a phrase. All painted down by a wizard – Phil Hansen. He involved real people, people of the internet, in this “A moment” project – a ten-foot, spinning, circular canvas that took him six days to complete. Over 600 responses (from the UK to Botswana) came to draw, from the middle to the extremes – Hansen’s face (his work gave him a jitter in a hand, a jitter that went away when drawing this picture).

“I’m really interested in how all of our experiences build together to create whatever world we live in.”

News Flash – If you believed there was something out there to put a stop at celebs involving in fashion, well, there’s no point in doing so anymore!

Justin Timberlake has a new contract – he’s to be the face of a men’s fragrance at Givenchy. Not only was he a singer, actor and fashion-something (ahem … designer), now he’s a model. They must really need his name at Givenchy – this is what Alain Lorenzo (president of Givenchy) declared:

Beyond his immense international notoriety, we chose Justin Timberlake because he’s a true trendsetter who has redefined modern elegance.

Is this fashion-mockery ending somewhere? Or it’s just the beginning of the end. Of true fashion’s end?

Since when are we to refer to a marketing product and call it the new definition of modern elegance? (need I remind you that this brand new “JT” all suited up and looking smart wears the heavy signature of Hedi Slimane?)

“WHAT IS AMERICA?
It’s Monopoly and Mickey Mouse; it’s Barbed Wire and the Can Opener.
It’s the Declaration of Independence and Bob Dylan and Groucho Marx.
Alfred E. Newman and Muhammad Ali, Dr. Spock and Dr. Strangelove,
the Edsel and our landing on the moon.”

Oh dear, almost make me want to cry. What is America through the eyes of a multimillionaire. Wonder how he would have written this book if he was just a struggling trough every-day man (or woman, by all means!).

I just had to tell you about this perfume! It sounds just like the perfect joke, but it’s an authentic perfume nevertheless!

Sooo – it’s a Comme des Garçons fragrance supposed to smell like gold! In fact, it smells like pepper spray! If you’re stubborn and stick to it, underneath all that saffron will pup up, geranium and amber! All that for $105/ 50ml!
Ready for some pepper, ladies?
