The summer is almost over, and thanks God, because with the heat here in Alicante I haven’t been able to move a single finger, and just spent the days refreshing myself in the pool.

Anyways, there are loads of new updates, that I’ll be posting day by day, as I started finally my diet, some Yoga classes… I will also introduce you the new Lady Marshmallow girl (that will be part of most of my photoshootings, picture above), the new collection, giveaway surprises, etc, etc..

So just be patient and keep on logged to Lady Marshmallow, as the giveaway surprise will be shortly out.

Hope you all had a wonderful summer.

I decided to go last week with my closest friend Tatiana, and enjoy some sightseeing and to visit a place I’ve heard loads about, which is called “Jardin de los Sentidos” that’s actually a refurbished private villa converted into a B&B, with an amazing botanic garden, where you can also go and have drinks – cakes, or even do some Yoga, but unfortunatelly, it was closed at that particular day we went.

But it didn’t ruin the day, as I discovered beautiful roads, with amazing views and buildings surrounded of great reataurants, art galleries, boutiques and night markets. As well as spending an entire day with my best friend, was very needed, to catch up with some girly talk.

It’s a MUST place to visit if you ever travel to Alicante.

Sorry for the delay on publishing this video, however with the heat we are having in Spain at the moment, it’s impossible to work.

And for your information, some of the items on the video are still available at my Etsy store.

As per my previous post, this is to confirm what a beautiful lucky charm we have here in Spain. You are great Sara.

However, as I’m not a big football fan, but proud to have my country of residence in Finale, I decided to create this post about two woman who have an influence on those two countries, as both of their partners will be affronting each other during the Finale of the FIFA World Cup 2010.

One is the beautiful sports journalist Sara Carbonero. Girlfriend of the Captain and Goalkeeper of the Spanish football team Iker Casillas, who had the whole world blaming on her, for the defeat of Spain against Switzerland, with stupid speculations such as she would have disturbed the concentration of her boyfriend, bla bla bla. However, as Spain is now in Finale, she now became the country’s lucky charm.

The other gorgeous woman, is the model, actress and TV presenter Sylvie van der Vaart, wife of the Dutch football player Rafael van der Vaart. This woman – mother & wife, has a beautiful natural look, however I’m a bit dissapointed on her style, which is most of the time over exposed, and far to artificial for my taste -which gave me a hard time finding cool pictures for Lady Marshmallow, as most of them looked like coming out from a FHM photoshooting ! -.

Please leave your comments on who you’ll think of this girls to be the FIFA World Cup 2010 lucky charm .

In the meantime, I leave you with this post until next Monday, as I have to get things ready for a friend’s wedding on Saturday, and need to find a dress, have a hair cut, etc…

Oh, and I promise to post all the pictures of the wedding next week, here at Lady Marshmallow.

Enjoy the end of the week, and for those of you watching the FIFA World Cup, enjoy the game and that the best wins.

Their cupcakes are fresh with a home cooking feeling, made with loads of love. And my all time favorites, was the Strawberry cupcake, until I tried a Nut cupcake that remind me of the Jordan Country Crisp cereals. I was so tempted, but had a big decision to take, as I’m allergic to some nuts. But what the hell, the temptation was stronger than me, and even if I would have needed two cortisone injections later on, I decided to eat the cupcake. And lucky me, nothing happened.

Sorry for not posting lately, but I have been trying to finish the Lady Marshmallow collection, try to sort out the photoshooting, etc…

So here I leave you with a preview of the exterior photoshooting we did yesterday in the San Fernando Castle in Alicante.

The official photos and video are coming up next week, and they will be shot in a studio in Benidorm. In the meantime I leave you with a preview of the exterior photoshooting.

Want to thank Alberto, Julien, Samantha, Ines and Guillermo, for contribuiting in this photoshoot.

The clothes will be on sale at my Etsy store by next week, don’t miss them out as they are one of a kind.

P.S. I never thought a photoshooting could be so tiring. Also got sunburned, as it was 30 degrees and we were six hours standing in the sun :s

And obviously, this is giving me difficulties on thinking about what kind of posts to create. So, as my brain is a bit out of order, I decided not to complicated it to much and add the missing pictures of the trip to Paris I did last March.

Hope you enjoy the pictures, and in the mean time apologies of being out of good posting.

Picture description from up to down :

La Tour Eiffel – The lime green door of the hotel room – Time to relax and have a bath in freezing Paris where I got sick on the second day – Getting ready to go out and do some more visit – The mini Statue of Liberty- A random Parisian pensioner with style – View of Paris from Montmartre – Sacre Coeur – A real mini and a filthy Paris – Some more filthy Paris – Oh les fleures – Farm eggs in the city – Sweets forever and ever – Oh, Moulin Rouge ! where is my Cancan ?  – Le Carrousel de Paris – Heading back to the hotel !

Today, celebrities such as Mischa Barton, Vanessa Paradis, the Olsen twins, Lily Allen, Kate Moss, Milla Jovovich, between others, have fallen into this wonderful world of Maison Michel hair accessories.

Just want to give a big applause to the designers of this amazing Spring Summer 2010 collection, and Chapeau to the creator of this amazing illustrations. That reminds me the wonderful work of my well talented and ex university room mate, Marta Ramos Muñoz de la Peña.
