British trend at Portobello's

Portobello road. Rainy day in London, wet as usual, even if in May. No way to walk in a jungle of open umbrellas and to shelter from rain, I came across a stand full of gaiters. I was so curious, as I had not seen them around for ages and not of this kind, that asked to try them on. I was enthusiastic of the effect on my legs so that I decided to get the ones in this pic. How British! 

Autumn Outfit in green: Zara dress, Borini open-toe suede shoes and vintage eco fur

Zara seems to have its models cut on real women curves. I am so proud I can wear a 38 that I even dared purchase a pencil dress. It renders the figure slim and shaped. It is so easy with a dress, you just need to add few details which will give elegance and embellish this simple item. I chose a vintage fur, found at Brick  Lane Market, http://www.visitbricklane.org, and a pair of leather gloves, same camel color.

Winter Suit: restyled Chanel like jacket, black trousers and yellow pump shoes

I had been looking for a pair of yellow shoes for months... These are ochre, more than yellow and perfectly match the outfit put together on a rainy day. Pollini brand, with 2 cm plateau and 2 cm heels.
I found them on www.yoox.com and it was not that easy to find them as it seems that this color is not one of those on fashion for the winter season 2013/2014.
The jacket, Twin-set brand, is a Chanel like one, only, more resembling a studded leather jacket. Detail in the pic below, the marquetry with  flowery black lace which you can hide with a zip. Trousers are Gold Case, crepe for a high waist model with folds on the the front. Perfect outfit to go to work, elegant  with the classic white shirt and nonchalant.

Ice Tropez and Saint Tropez shopping

What a surprise! Driving with hot weather towards Saint Tropez, we noticed a lovely vignoble along the way and decided to stop to have a rest, hoping to find some refreshments there.  We were right, the nice guys of what we thought to be a bistro and was instead a Vinery show room, suggested their new product, ICE TROPEZ. It is a delicious cocktail made of Rosé wine and white peach flavor,  the best to drink in Cote d' Azur. It reminded me of Bellini di Cipriani, our famous Italian drink, created in Venice. 

The windows of the shops in Saint Tropez are originally assembled with stunning furniture elements, however I could not find anything special or trendy for the summer season. The gipsy like fashion is evergreen, no matter if you are a princess or a waitress, gitane you have to dress ! You might wish to check what is really on fashion on Pure, the ultra posh Saint Tropez magazine http://www.pure-saint-tropez.fr

Dolce&Gabbana eye shadow quad - Femme Fatale

Could you think of a more exclusive make up than the Dolce&Gabbana one? Luxury object in your clutch for glamourous events. There are more than 16 combinations available to be selected. The nuance I chose for me is Femme Fatale. The most suitable one for a dark-eyed woman. It intensifies your look and enhances your charme. Maybe because you are aware you are wearing Monica Bellucci's make up? For sure you will have something in common with her, after you will have purchase this beauty object.

English Breakfast - Twinings

There is nothing better than a cup of tea, especially if the tea bag is a Twinings special blend selection. Some of the winter limited edition, among them Rose Garden, my favorite. For a  tea on fashion!
