Snow White

Blue is the warmest colour

If you want suggestion for a magnifique movie - this is it!!
The acting and realness is sensational!
 
The movie was awarded the Palme d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival
It's a French movie based on Julie Maroh's graphic novel and it's 3 hours long
 


New opening

I just read that Brandy Melville has opened a flagship store in London
on Foubert's Place. If your not well-known with the brand it's a Italian
brand, inspired by LA lifestyle, this brand is already loved by some
celebrities and bloggers.
 
Make sure to visit the shop once your in carnaby street area,
I haven't yet been, but will make sure to visit next time I am around there.
In the meantime check out the website: www.brandymelvilleusa.com/

The Mrs. Carter Show

YAAAAAAAAY!!
 
I got concert tickets to see Beyoncé for spring, as she's coming back to
Europe for her Mrs Carter world tour.
Tickets were released on Monday, the best seats went very quick, so not sure
how much is left now! She will have 6 shows at O2 in London,
I am going with 3 colleagues on 5 March, really looking forward to spring now..
 
Christmas is approaching fast, only 1 week to go, but no snow yet, hehe
I am patiently waiting for the sales, some shops already started..
but I'm waiting for zara, netaporter, topshop, zara home, mango 
just to name a few..

Glossybox December

Glossybox for month of December has arrived, in a
festive red box of course :)
 
I must say I feel slightly disappointed with this box - as
out of 5 products, I will probably only use 2. I know I said that I love
to try new products, which is true, but I think also that if
you send samples you should send basic colours
 


 
 
My Box this month contained the following 5 items:
 
Beautiful Movement Cosmetics
This is a jojoba rich, non sticky nude lip gloss
(I will probably try it - but not really into this colour, it's not really nude
it's more brownish)
 
 
 
Wilkinson Sword Intuition Naturals Razor
3 in 1 razor that lathers, moisturises and shaves
(Will have to give this away - as I don't use shavers)
 
 
 
Maybelline New York Volum' Express
Colossal Smoky Eyes Mascara with collagen and khol effect pigments, plumps lashes for a smokin' hot look
 
 
 
Seche
Seche nail polish delivers pure colour saturation, allowing for one coat coverage and a satin smooth finish, which dries quickly
(Will have to give this away - as pink has never really been my colour)
 

 
Yin Yang Skincare
This organic skin care moisturiser nourishes and repairs fine, sensitive skin

weekend

Another weekend has arrived - and honestly I just want to sleep in
and relax and take in the Christmas spirit.
 
Christmas should be enjoyable and relaxing not stressful,
unfortunately not everyone realize that, and people just stressing
and worrying about what to buy instead of enjoying the time.
This year I am staying in London, but it means I will be working,
our office will be closed on 25 & 26 December only.
 
This week we went to a x-mas event at JW Marriott Grosvenor
House on Park Lane. It was so beautifully arranged outside with
alot of decorations and it brought a lot of Christmas spirit to my soul,
there was plenty of Christmas inspired food, such as turkey, lamb.. etc..
But there is one thing you don't miss when at this hotel, and
that's dessert, especially since they have the best cheesecake in town.
If your in London, eat at the Steakhouse in the hotel and order
cheesecake for dessert, you will know what I mean once you have
the first bite! They also had a choir which came and sang some
Christmas carols, but it was not any random choir, they are called
Only Boys Aloud, It's a Welsh Boys Choir and they been on Britain's
Got Talent in 2012, they sang beautifully and made me shiver, the
atmosphere became even cosier with the choir, I felt warm in my heart
for real.
 
Yesterday I was catching up with my friend, we had dinner at Diner
on Carnaby Street, great place, with "American" style food!
 
Today I was invited for lunch at Suka at Sanderson Hotel,
the food is simply amazing at this restaurant, try the squid if ever
there, so tasty!
 
It's time for a movie and then bed - Happy Weekend!!
 
 
Last weekend shopping - trying some new items

dreaming of spring

I know it's too early, but I am more of a spring/summer person anyway,
but it's only because I just had a glimpse of H&M's spring collection,
that I got a sudden desire/longing for spring...
