CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE - SPECIAL POST

My Lovely Readers,

this is my special post for the 3rd Sunday in Advent.

This post is all about Christmas presents, a special gift guide and my personal Christmas wish list with great ideas for gifts to make and to receive ;)

Well, my personal wish list isn't really realistic, but these items are my fashionable objects of desire at the moment ;)

Actually I don't really have a Christmas wish list and what matters more for me than presents for Christmas, is quality time spent with my beloved family.

But of course, we all want to make our beloved ones happy by giving wonderful presents to them.

Long Handle Bags another Spring Trend

Long Handle Bags are back by the18thdistrict featuring suede handbags

Long handle bags were banished from the front row of every top boutique and department store to vintage stores and into boxes to be kept on dirty attics. I can remember the time, when my mum was wearing these amazing pieces and we both loved them, as she could carry me on her arm instead of carrying a bag. Those bags have been waiting so long to be 'on vogue' again and to find themselves back in the shop windows.

Now their time has come and they are back with a vengeance - with bright fluorescent colours and eye-catching materials, one definitely can not ignore their amazing return to chic. Be aware - all short handle bags, the long handle bags are going to be a keen competition.

YSL CANDY FACE 2012

I'm in love with the YSL-Spring Beauty Collection 2012 - CANDY FACE!

A few posts ago I talked about the pink/orange nail varnish duo already and promised to write a post about this gorgeous Yves Saint Laurent Collection by Lloyed Simmonds.

When I first saw the collection a few weeks ago at a parfumery I immideately fell in love with it. Lloyed Simmonds used wonderful fresh and expressive colours that are perfect for spring and summer. These colours definitely put you into a good spring mood during the last, still quite cold, winter days. I couldn't resist and bought the Limited Edition Manucure Couture Duo No.8 the Rouge Volupte Sheer Candy No.9 and I'm going to buy the Limited Edition Ombres 5 Lumieres No 113. This 5 shades eye palette combines really nice pastel hues that reminde me of summer and ice cream parlours.The Manucure Duo No.8 consists of two bright colours.
The manderin orange varnish to be used as the basecoat, and a fresh bubblegum pink to be used on the tips. I haven't used the varnish in this combination yet but I'm going to do this very soon, for sure.

This YSL spring look definitely brings colour to your face that's sweet enough to eat!

What do you think about this wonderful spring look ?
