Tattoo

Most people that have tattoos got them for a specific reason .. initials of someone special, dates, design that is simply pleasing to the eye, fashionable prints, children names, tattoos designed to commemorate special events like achievements, difficult times or events displayed as a lifetime reminders. They can also represent spiritual statuses, symbol for social rankings, individuality. Typically these will be accompanied by other designs such as flowers, butterflies, shapes, hearts, stars .. Most people have very specific reasons for these lifelong marks and some even have stories behind each one but today loads of people wear tattoos more for fashion and body decoration.
Me, personally do not prefer tattoos that cover large part of the body .. Looks dirty, especially on women.
I have two tattoos, one initial on my wrist and the other one is devoted to someone very special and its on the inner side of the arm under the elbow .. both on the left hand.


What do you think about tattoos? Do you have some?

Everyday Look!

Okey, I am pissed off!
Everyday when I go out no matter where I see loads of disgusting  faces! Literally! Pimples, capillaries, natural blushed cheeks .. Grose! Do these girls have mirrors? They got to mingle something!
When we say natural look that doesn't mean wake-up-wash-your-face-and-go-out! It means DO SOMETHING! Means, nude make up and nude make up includes MAKE UP!


.. foundation, concealer, soft eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush and nude lipstick ..
Means get-up-15-minutes-earlier to look good! Means self-care!
Although you have crystal clear face you still can't go out like that! You do not need masses of make up to look good. You do not need smokey eyes to look fantastic neither red plumped lips. You just need to put a little effort and look amazing!

Hope that one day I could erase this post .. hope that one day u will all look stunning!

I will share with you my favorite tutorial video made by Tamara, dear friend of mine, so you can all see what I am talking about ..

Mulberry!


I haven't been here for a while .. I am sorry coz of my laziness :)
I am in love and it's not a boy .. it's a bag called Alexa, Mulberry Alexa .. the satchel at the top of every fashionista's wish list. It's definitely a trophy, statement of desire, the leather expression of cool.
The Alexa was conceived to Alexa Chung, the British broadcaster, model and fashion icon. The bag was first mooted after Mulberry creatives spotted a photography in a magazine of Chung carrying Elkington, Mulberry's classic men's briefcase. They loved the look and thought designing a bag inspired by Alexa. Mulberry has this tradition of naming bags after girls. This wasn't a collaboration with Chung, she didn't contribute to the design.
In one week, after realising 380 Alexas were sold. Three-hundred and eighty women spent £750 on one particular bag. How? Why? Well, its sort of a perfect-bag-in-perfect-time, originally made in their factory at Somerset. Its roomy enough for all of your everyday essentials. Very chic option for any outfit. It comes in two sizes and nine colors.

Oh, decisions!

.. and its taking part in Olivia's closet :) <3

When Birkin is not a Birkin

What if you wish for a Birkin and you have a shy account?! Then you will love Thursday Friday's idea that will fit your bill .. tote called The Together Bag! Democratic cotton screen-printed tote featuring a likeness of Hermes's iconic Birkin bag. 



Roni Brunn and Olena Sholomytska, the duo behind Thursday Friday, were looking to create a bag that could be used for everything, even the groceries. They were using an extra bag to supplement our 'real' bags. They ended up with surreal design that references luxury but is ultimately an anti-status symbol. 

And the Birkin references don't stop there, in a fittingly bizarre twist, there is already a three month waiting list.


I love this bag and its prize of only 35$. For those who won't be bothered to wait three months here is the link thufri.com

Happy face, red nails, fancy leather boots, huge fur cap, warm lovely jacket, skinny jeans, scarf, huge bag, big eyes, nude lips, shiny cheeks and you assistance under the city lights is a must!
