Paris Fashion Week favourites!

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:20:00 +0000

So i think my favourite collection this Paris Fashion Week fall/winter 2012 is that from Christian Dior. This was such a beautiful, elegant and sophisticated collection, i think i loved every piece. 

I also loved the collections from Balmain and Isabel Marant, although it was not very surprising in my opinion. Elie Saab made some beautiful dresses! And Lanvin & Mc Queen were real eye catchers. The collection from Chanel was not my favourite, but worth sharing. 

What do you think?..xoxo

Beauty Update #1

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 20:53:00 +0000

I thought it would be nice to do some beauty updates once in a while. Feel free to share your beauty tips & tricks here as well!

#BEAUTYSHOP tip: The beauty Bakery

This Dutch beautyshop sells delicious skin treats

When you're looking for a nice gift or you want to try something different, this is the shop you want! These cute & natural beauty products look like real treats!

Famous from the shop are the Big (Hollywood) hair shampoo bars. They smell great and create more volume at the roots of your hair. They're also very friendly priced, around 5,90 euro's.

#MUSTHAVE make-up: gel eyeliner

Like Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner

With eyeliner gel you will get that perfect smooth eyeliner! It will cost you a little bit of practice, but you will never get this perfect line with a regular pencil. Watch here how Dutch fashionblogger ModeRosa applies her eyeliner! Her make-up always looks flawless.

#BEAUTY FAVOURITE: Chanel Rouge Coco Shine

For soft and healthy lips

I always use these lipsticks and i think they are just perfect! These semi-transparant stick gives a beautiful subtle colour to the lips, without drying them out or make them to glossy.

They cause no irritation which is very important to me, because i'm allergic to al lot of make-up brands. They cost around 28 euro's each.

#BUDGET tip: HEMA eyebrowkit

For beautiful brows like Megan Fox

You should really try using eyebrow powder. It has a great natural effect. This eyebrowkit from Hema costs less then 4 euro's, but for me it's the best. It has 3 colours, 2 applicationtools and it will last a long time.

#MUSTHAVE hair: Biosilk Shine-on spray

For shiney silkey hair.

Use this handy Biosilk shiney spray before you style your hair against heat protection or after for shiney, silky hair. It's great! It costs around 20 euro's but it will last for months. (available at Douglas)

#MUST-TRY: Messy hair

Like Cindy from COTTDS.

Have you tried the volume powder from Taft yet? (men or women). It's very affordable (about 5 euro's) and will create that perfect messy hair look! Apply the powder at the roots of your hair, it also works like a 'dry shampoo' refreshment.

#BEAUTY TIP: Silk pillows

For a real beauty-sleep.

Silk pillows are gentle for your hair and skin and leave no sleep creases and hairknots in the morning. (other then cotton pillows that draw moisture from your hair and skin). Besides that, silk breathes, is hypoallergenic and feels so soft!

Dutch online shop Satinsleepers.nl sells real silk pillows (medium 17,95 euro or large 19,95 euro) in all kinds of colors!

#MUSTHAVE perfume: Elie Saab le perfume

A feminine & mysterious new fragrance

I love this new perfume from designer Elie Saab. The fragrance notes are: orange blossom, jasmine, cedarwood, patchouli, rose honey. The price for a bottle of 30 ml is 45 euro's.

#MUST-SEE beauty: Lina Sandberg

Lina is a 20 year-old international model from Sweden and fashion editor for Metro. I think she is so beautiful! Follow her blog here: lina.metromode.se.

#LOVINGIT: Ombré hair trend

Like Drew Barrymore

Still loving this ombré hair-trend! To see more pictures of ombré looks click here. You want this hairstyle like Drew? Never do it yourself, There is a technique for it. It's called balayage and it's not easy to do.

Research a hairdresser that is known for it. Be sure to stress the words "natural", "sun-kissed" and "no streaks".

#HOWTO: sunkissed wavey hair

Like Cheyenne from www.cheyennemeetschanel.com

Tuck the front behind your ears while it's drying, so you get that natural wave right around your face. After drying, starting from the bottom up take small one inch pieces and quickly use your fingers to twirl it around a 1 inch curling iron.

For more messy looking waves just twist your hair around and hold for a few seconds. Make sure you are curling in the direction away from your face. To make it piecey and beachy though, spray Beach Blow through it and shake it around.

See you next beauty update!

I hosted the Nelly High Heels event in Monza Utrecht and i did an inside-my-wardrobe for Alyzo fashionnews. 

 I wrote several Fashion newsarticles for Followfashion.nl and Hyki.nl

My favourite fashionblogger of 2011 was Chiara Ferragni! And my favourite Dutchy was Cindy van der Heyden (COTTDS).

My favourite beautyproducts of 2011 were Biosilk shine-on silk spray, Chanel Coco Rouge Shine and Elie Saab perfume.

Some of my favourite trends of 2011 were ombré hair, sequins, Waterfall draped jackets, coloured clutches, chokers and cuffs.

Thanks everyone for supporting and visiting my blog and i hope u will continue to do so in 2012!:)

I'm looking forward to spring and summer of 2012 already!

Chanel pré-fall Paris-Bombay collection

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 15:39:00 +0000

This tuesday Karl Lagerfeld presented his 'Chanel Métiers d'Art Pre-Fall 2012 collection'. Inspiration for this 'Paris-Bombay'collection are European fashionindustries that produce their clothing in India (because of the low rates). Instead of making European designs in India, Karl wanted to bring India to the designtables of Chanel! 

I personally love this collection! What do you think?..

I heart it

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:49:00 +0000

I love online community weheartit.com, where u can collect all your favourite images! So nice to stroll the web searching for fashionable, cute, yammy, sweet or funny pics.

Style icon: Elin Kling

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 12:42:00 +0000

Queen of style Elin Kling has been running Scandinavia's largest fashion blog -Style by Kling- since 2007 and has been very successful as a fashion editor, stylist and even a designer (H&M, Nowhere) since then!

She describes her style as wearable, androgynous, and strategic. For Kling, it's all about starting with a simple foundation (like a basic knit top  with jeans or a mini skirt) and then incorporating that one statement  piece (think: a plaid scarf or killer pair of heels) to really  personalize the look.

(Read her interview with whowhatwear.com here).

She inspires fashionbloggers all over the world, you can see why. ;)

Fifi Lapin: the furry fashionista!

noreply@blogger.com (Eva) — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 16:57:00 +0000

Who can resist the world's greatest style bunny Fifi Lapin? She has a new style book come out, that i'll love to get. It's called 'The wonderful world of Fifi Lapin'.

I Hope this book will be available in The Netherlands soon.. (Otherwise i'll try getting it with Amazon.) What do you think of this furry fashionista?..


Fifi Lapin's new stylebook

Fifi who?

Hi, I'm Fifi. Fifi Lapin.

I was born one of 257 brothers and sisters but sadly there was an outbreak of myxamatosis when I was one year old and I was the only one that survived. My parents are therefore incredibly protective of me and spoil me rotten. I'm an 'haress' to my fathers fortune which he made playing fast and loose with carrot and lettuce shares on the international stock market. There are a lot of rabbits out there so I guess he just struck gold (or orange you might say). Some people think I’m just a socialite but I think there is more to me than just an extremely stylish clotheshorse!

I love to wear the latest fashions and I never wear the same outfit twice which means each and every one of my original drawings is totally unique.

Inspiration: sequins & metallics
