Chanel Haute Couture Spring 2013

The Chanel Haute Couture was presented today and i must admit, for the first time in my life, i am not impressed...
Yes, there still are some divine pieces... (i loved the open toe boots) but the on the whole... i just couldn't help myself. I didn't get it... the nests on the models heads??Feathers? Why, Karl?? Why??

This was my fave:

Mirrored Furniture

OH my! Mirrored furniture, how i love thee!!!

Mirrored furniture traditionally comes from Venice, where the mirror production began in the early 16th century. 

It didn't become widely available until 1900 when higher quality and mass mirror production became popular. 

This popularity reaches it's summit during the art déco period- a modernization movement that focused on minimalism and clean lines.

Mirrors are guaranteed to match any color scheme already present in your room and although they cannot create the illusion of a larger space, they cast light around the room. Which is perfect when you live in a small condo.

The problem with this kind of furniture besides delicacy is that the glass surface doesn't hide fingerprints or dust very well. Special care must also be taken to move those pieces around to avoid cracks which can be very expensive to repair.
Nevertheless, i love it and i am dreaming of a glamorous vanity for so long now. Unfortunately i haven't  found none appealing to me... the search continues..

Madhatter

I am a hat person. I like them all and fortunately i can wear all kinds, shapes and colors.

Right now i am in a desperate need of a wide rim one...or even better a fedora with a wide ribbon!!!

I need to find one soon....

Nail'd

Have you ever wished to try the latest nail polishes without spending your last dime on expensive brands like Chanel or Dior?

Lacquerous is a new online service that sends you every month three bottles lacquer of your choice just for a small fee  (18 $).

It's only available in the US but i can imagine it could swap over to Europe.

Would you try it??

The next big thing: The CC Cream by Chanel

In the beginning of 2013 Chanel is going to launch its CC Cream for Europe. (this one has been working quite well on the Asian market for months now.)

Well we all know about the magic the asian BB creams do. The CC cream is basically the improved and refined BB cream...

If your head is spinning and you don't even know what a BB cream is, you must have slept the year 2012 entirely.

Blemish balm or Beauty balm war originally created in Germany and has gained over the past decade a huge popularity among the asian Beatystas for its skin-regenerating properties. In 2012 the BB cream run over the european and american markets.

While the BB cream primarily was manufactured as a skin care product, the CC cream goes further:

it retains all the skin benefits a BB cream provides while added nourishing ingredients provide more effective skin coverage.

And once again Chanel proved its status as a pioneer.

Are you curious to try this one?
