I want to be an Australian girl and wear summer clothes all year long...

...but I'm not and it is raining continuously since this morning...even warm weather left... So I've decided to wear my favourite summer items at home, today (and to share it with you too!)!!!
And what did I do?
haha, you'll know if you check the last picture of the post J
Nevertheless, don't think I am bored. I really like dull days ; drinking tea, listening to music (today's a Genesis day), drawing and even walking in the rain.

"Well this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in..."    > Genesis

* skirt = Pull & Bear / shoes = Urban Outfitters / short = Fred Perry / Top = Naf Naf / nail polishes = Kiko, Essence, OPI

last days of summer

I wasn't a very good blogger lately...it's been a while I didn't write but I was really busy (with work) and tired (because of work too)...
Nevertheless, I took time to make this drawing (I know I should post more of them...) for you (I would be glad to live naked with this heat...but at least, I cannot, so I draw nudes J)
Two years ago, I had drawing lessons and one semester was about nudes (oh, you probably think I took it for male models... No. Because there was no models at all (the director wasn't OK...) Besides, I made more women than men... Why? I like design their hair)

I wish you a nice end of summer (yes, in one month it'd be over)

"Wake up
It's a beautiful morning
Honey, while the sun is still shining
Wake up
Would you like to go with me?
Honey, take a run down to the beach..."   > The Drums

ciao bella!

Holidays are almost finished...but these are some  Italian souvenirs  from this summer.

Toscany is a very beautiful place with a lots of lovely towns (Pisa, Sienna, Lucca, Firenze, ...), weather is warm and food is so delicious (pasta, ice-cream, pizze and olive oil... yum!)!

“I go crazy ‘cause here isn't where I wanna be

And satisfaction feels like a distant memory

And I can't help myself,

All I wanna hear her say is "Are you mine?"

Are you mine?”                                                   > Arctic Monkeys

* nail polishes = Kiko

out of the blue

I usually wear blue as jeans, but I (re)discovered this colour which is very cool and relaxing for summertime (makes me think about sea and sky, anyway...)
So a little selection of blue items I like (and like to combine for bright colour-block)!

"I see you up in the blue
I send a thought to you from the prism of my mind
Out of my head and into the blue
My baby blue, my baby blue..."               > Rooney





* make-up = MAC / jeans = Levi's / shoes = Accessorize / jeans = Primark / nail polish = Kiko

(deep) Purple

Even if one of my best friends hates this colour, I completely love it : purple!

(and I found the perfect purple nail polish (from Kiko)!)

And today's a special day too!

Why?

First day of the Olympic Games*?

Well, no, in fact, this is the 1st year of my blog's existance!

When I started, one year ago, I wanted first to share my drawings and sketches, but I quickly realized that I had a lot of photographs to show and passions to talk about.

That's why I really want to thank you for visiting this blog, for (the few) messages you left and to make it be "alive".

I'm always surprised when I see how many visits I got and how far people are from too (United States, Russia, United Kingdom or Venezuela, Turkey or Indonesia...and so on) and it proves me that there are not only my friends who are checking it...

“On the other side of a downward spiral

 My love for you went viral

 And I loved you every mile you drove away

 But now here you are again

 So let's skip the "how you been"

 And get down to the "more than friends" at last…”        > Train

* did you watch Arctic Monkeys playing in the London 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony ?? No, check here! to listen or here to watch! (I'll marry Alex Turner one day...)

Liverpool, I ♥ U

One month ago, I was in Liverpool, a nice, fashionable, musical, cultural and so wonderful city with a lot of things to do/see/visit/eat/discover...! Do you know the "lambanana"? I didn't, but it is so great (that is the mix of a lamb and a banana, it is against MGO too).
Plus, people were very friendly even if they have a strong accent...and I met the man of my life ; the super-cute stadium guide, James!
So, here, I just want to share with you a little selection of my pictures!

"Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you

I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you

All my loving I will send to you
All my loving, darling I'll be true..."   > The Beatles   (Off course ^^)
