Christmas is not only about you, but also about your beloved ones. It is the perfect time to express your gratitude and affection towards friends and family. December is such a beautiful month filled with happiness and joy. I try my best to absorb the positive energy that surrounds Christmas and make the most of it. Christmas is about spreading love. Somehow the very nature of the holidays makes you think more about your friends and family, and besides sharing…
We still have a few more days until Christmas to finish once and for all purchasing gifts for our loved ones. Sometimes we run out of ideas and spend days trying to find the perfect gift, or we like to let things until the last minute and rush immediately to the stores and get the presents. In order to make things a bit easy for all of you, in our previous posts, we have listed our ideas that would make…
With the magnificent setting of the 10 BC Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art as the backdrop for Chanel’s latest Metiers d’Art show, Karl Lagerfeld was thinking of a chic mash-up of Ancient Egypt and New York itself. The magnificent collection was designed to showcase the small miracles wrought by the house’s fournisseurs. These embroiderers, feather-workers, button makers, costume jewelers, fabric weavers, milliners, and shoe makers are flourishing anew thanks to Chanel’s taking their once waning ateliers and…
The change of season is upon us and days are getting cooler. Soon, blazers, jackets and oversized blouses won’t keep us warm for long. That means we will have to dress for real this time, and by that we mean COATS will become our BFFs. As we previously wrote in one of our posts related to Fall 2018 jackets, the trend is not that different when it comes to what winter 2018 has in store for us when choosing the…
Leave it to the makeup artists during Paris Fashion Week and they will express their creativity as well as some crazy moments of beauty.

So far we have seen the presence of such beauty trends as glitter, the classic red lipstick, the graphic…
Autumn is the greatest of times when it comes to changes. At a certain point it looks like a new year or a new period in our life has just started. There is no better time than autumn to opt for a new perfume that will be in perfect synchronization with our mood and our desire for a change. Many brands have already launched new scents, while some of them have brought back their old perfumes, but with a new…
Over the past few seasons, Chanel has staged its Métiers d’Art show in Hamburg, Rome, and of course, Paris. But this December, the French fashion house is bringing its jet-setting runway show to New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Taking place on December 4, Chanel’s Pre-Fall 2019 collection will mark its first New York-based show since 2006. In fact, in its over-100 year history, the brand has only ever shown in New York twice before. The first time being in…
After spending a pleasant summer wearing bright colors and matching them in different ways, it’s now time to turn our focus on dark colors that seem to somehow bring some drama in our lives. Besides clothes, changing the lipstick color is a common change that happens every season. After applying for a period of 3 months a variety of vivid colors on our lips, we immediately begin transition as September kicks. For some years now burgundy color has been the…
The best way to spend free time is reading books, because we love the unknown and every story that we read somehow takes us in a different world and we would like to be the protagonists. Somehow, the stories that we read stay with us for quite some time, but we are also fond of stories of other people’s lives, the ones that have lived in a different time period, but are still remembered nowadays. We enjoy reading about the…
Just picture for a moment the city you used to live in when you were younger. Picture the places you frequently visited and the atmosphere that surrounded your old neighborhood. Can you turn those images into a collection? But not just a simple one, a haute couture? As crazy as this might sound, it was not that crazy at all after seeing Chanel’s Autumn Winter 2018 Haute Couture Fashion Show. The Chanel Fall haute couture collection was like the memoir…
