rouge & noir

1) Rouge : I really like pink and red together! especially if it is OPI's colour!!

2) Noir : the new album from The Black Keys is out now! I began to listen to it and really enjoy Year in Review  and In our Prime... (besides that, tomorrow it is the 35th birthday of the singer, Dan Auerbach!)

promise is a deal

I wrote that I'll make a review about Foster The People's Supermodel...here it is!

I have to confess that I was a bit afraid about what this second album could be, because I just adore their first one! But it's been a month I only listen to it (+ Torches + new songs from The Black Keys...) and don't cannot stop.

So then? Some songs (like 'Pseudologia Fantastica' or 'The Truth') sound like nothing else, but I also appreciate them and for me, they perfectly knew how to stay true to their style while evolving. Music still has this amazing (Helena)beat and joy and energy which make me dance!
Besides that, lyrics improved too, being more adult and serious ('Are you what you wanna be?' and 'Ask yourself' made me think about life, consumerism and future a lot...!)



Plus, I find Mark Pontius (drums) is as cute as a surfer....













































“If you want more and you'll get there.
 Throw a quarter in the well.
 Well, it's okay, you're fine, ambition's not a crime.
And you say that dreamers always get what they desire.
 Well I've found, the more I want the less I've got.
 Is this the life you've been waiting for.
 Or are you hoping that you'll be where you want with a little more?
 Well ask yourself…”                                                               > Foster The People

touch of (pale) pink

I'm not fond of French manicure, but this one worked perfectly to me!!




“There's sugar on your soul,
 You're like no one I know,
 You're the life of another world.
You swallow me whole,
 With just a mumbled hello,
And it breaks my heart to love you, it breaks my heart to love you…”       > Editors

ba-rock

Using the same technique as presented in my previous post, this is my "baroque" nails...

 Wondering why the bottom fell out
 I've been searching for answers
 And there's questions I've found…”            > Foster The People

what on earth is going on?

1) cute Joseph Gordon-Levitt and beautiful Emma Watson looking amazing together at the Oscars' ceremony!

2) absolutely gorgeous prints from Peter Pilotto x Target!

3) new video clip from Arctic Monkeys : 'Arabella' which is so visual and retro...

4) new (and super easy) way to do my nails!!

5) Foster the People are back! How is this new album?  Torches was INCREDIBLY enjoyable and  I love every single song. This one sounds different even if there are some great tunes, like "Ask Yourself", "The Truth" or "Are you what you want to be?"(maybe I'll make a review soon!)

6) weather isn't warm enough to wear summer dresses, so I draw them...

7) my mum began to bake fantastic (and delicious) cakes!!

Somebody you could lose

Rule number four, gotta be looking pure
Kissing goodbye at the door, and leave him wanting more
