THE VALENTINE'S DIY









Today I'm showing you my Valentine's DIY that can fit perfectly in any other special occasion, like birthdays. I hope you all had a weekend full of love, whether it was with your significant other, your mom, sister, best friend, cat, dog, bird...you get the idea. I believe Valentine's day should be everyday but I still like to get creative and this year I've decided to make something more personal instead of buying a card or a gift. I've made a Heart balloon card to go with some chocolates and also made a mini-zine. Sometimes simple is the best especially when it comes to love. I'd love to hear what else you come up with. 

CROC ON


The crocodile bag is still going strong for this season, although it’s slightly updated. We've seen the round brass buckle poppin' up on the runway this spring, not only on shoes but also like a hair accessory. And now, you'll find it in hand bags and clutches as well. While Céline delivers this brown beauty,  Zara, created a black version for a much more affordable price.

STREETS OF NYC

















The New York Fashion Week is here and around the city streets the best looks are spotted around and about the shows. Definitely, the best inspo to start the week.

Have a great week y'all. 

MORNING ISSUE







I'm not a morning person but once in a while some early proscastination and an actual healthy meal feels pretty good. Wake up and smell the inspiration!

JANUARY BEAUTY FAVOURITES








Time for my monthly beauty round up and January favourites are served. 

Maybelline The Rocket Volum Express Mascara   |   Finally I've grabbed one of this. Brought with me from Switzerland and I'm really glad with it. The plastic wand is great at separating the lashes and also buildable. 

OPI Avoplex Cuticle Oil to go   |   My nails were struggling with the cold air and they really dried out. All I needed was some daily cuticle oil and they're already back to tip top shape. The OPI cuticle oil to go is my fave as it's so small and easy to throw in your handbag.  

The Body Shop Honey Bronze Bronzing Powder   |  Has turned out one of my favourites bronzers so far. It's completely one-dimensional without shimmer or sparkle, but man, have The Body Shop got this shade spot-on. It's perfect for adding a hint of contour and does´t get too orangy. 

Nars Digital World Lip Pencil Coffret    |   I love Nars but, unfortunately we don't have it in Portugal. When I saw their Christmas releases, I knew I had to indulge and this set stole my heart immediately. I absolutely love the range of shades available, they really do have all bases covered with a nude, my-lips-but-better, neon brights and a vampy red. Three of the five shades are actually limited edition (Torres del Paine, Descanso and Iberico) which made me want this set even more. They are super quick to apply, they have extreme colour payoff and the matte formula means they last all day and night even when eating and drinking. Cruela is the most amazing, scarlet red with a blue undertone and definitely my top pick from the bunch. 

Schwarzkopf BC Bonacure Oil Miracle    | I already was a big fan of BC Oil Miracle Finishing Treatment for Thick Hair but this one, made of Barbary fig oil and keratin is pure magic in a bottle.  Finally I've found a product that really detangles my wet hair in just a few seconds, literally. Delivers instant shine to the hair and goes deeply into the hair to fill the damaged areas. 

Cartier Lys Rose   |  It was released last Summer but it works just fine in the winter time. Lys Rose gives of a lot of pepper, woody musk and dry raspberry at first sniff. 

Urban Decay Naked2 Palette   |  Probably my fave Christmas gift. Twelve neutral eyeshadows in a variety of finishes - matte, shimmer and micro glitter - really damn long lasting, what makes this palette the perfect one. The mix of cool and warm tones is great for experimenting and I always seem to find a use for it. It's really travel friendly and I was impressed with the doubled ended brush – a fluffy crease brush on one end and a flat brush on the other. And finally I got myself a black eye shadow that's fuckin' black and lasts for hours. 

I hope you enjoy reading about my favourite products from this month. What were yours?!

THE FAB DIOR COUTURE SS15 RUNWAY SHOW











As the first models strode out at Raf Simon's SS15 Dior haute couture show, in translucent plastic opera coats and embroidered floral lace dresses and latex boots, I felt imediatly that sixties nostalgia. The old and the new came together perfectly and that aerodynamic shape of a circular hair ornament just added a spark to a clean ponytail. And when you look closer to those latex boots, can you imagine? They put rhinestones in there! I'm in love. 


Have a lovely week y'all!
