zig-zag

To make this manicure, you just have to do some dots and joining them to have this pattern!

"Could you love me when the world is crashing all around?
You can try and be someone you're not
If that's the rift that you wanna cause
You can do the life of a bohemian
Or you can choose the material world
But all I need is somewhere to lay
Somewhere to lay my head on
I need someone to love in the middle of the day
I want someone to be
And someone to drive around town....."   > The Kooks

Easter decoration

My mum adores decoration...here a selection of what she did for Easter.
Have a nice weekend and eat chocolate :)

"I saw a fox by the rabbit hole
You saw a prince from a fairy tale
He promised that he'd watch over you
He turned out to be the fox we all knew

If I've got to be true, what chance did you stand.
Take flight, turn tale, get out while you can.

Run rabbit run, as fast as you can. Don't look back.
Run rabbit run, as fast as you can. Don't look back..."    > The Hoosiers



* nail polishes = Mavala, Essence, OPI

animal

I tried the reptilian nail polish by Essie. I really like the result even if it is a bit more difficult to have a nice pattern than the metallic polishes I used before...(oh, and thanks to my cat for her help on pictures!)

"Animal
You're an animal
Don't take anything less..."    > Muse

small colorful beads

To decorate cupcakes : I use cream cheese  (flavored with melted chocolate or raspberry juice) less fat than butter cream...or you can melt some white chocolate with butter and add some icing sugar.

"J'essaie quand même

Il paraît que les filles
Aiment encore les "Je t'aime"

up for lost time

Hey! I'm finally back and fortunately everything is working well now. So I'm sharing with you what I wanted to post last month...

First, my nails, again and again...(I tried new patterns ; adhesive is my new best friend!) :

and I wanted to share with you David Beckham's Elle cover(s) too:

I wish you a nice summer and see you around (I promise!!)

"En Mai, fait ce qu'il te plaît..."

I had time and wanted to do something different on my nails. I checked few techniques on blogs and tried. 
This is not very difficult, you just need :
- nail polish (white or colour)
- a pattern from a newspaper / magazine
- 70° alcohol
- top coat (to finish)
- imagination & patience  J


I hope you will enjoy the result!

She expected the world,
But it flew away from her reach,
So she ran away in her sleep..."               > Coldplay





* nail polish = Essence

Choice. Irregular Choice.

1) I named this post like that, because I watched a James Bond film last weekend...  haha...

2) Choice. Because I listened to The Hoosiers's second album today...and one of their song followed me from then...

3) I love shoes and I adoooooore this trend! We are in spring and we have to wear COLOURS!! J
Don't you think there are incredible?

and this is THE  boutique, on Carnaby Street (London):

"Stop giving me choices
Stop giving me choices...."    > The Hoosiers



PS: You already saw mine!!! 

"Make-up Call"

I don't usually wear lots of make-up, but I wanted to share with you my few beauty tips...so this post is for you! and I hope you'll like it.
I just present you my favourite items (by Max Factor and MAC, but I also like Benefit, Bourgeois and OPI for nail polishes...).

This ad is so beautiful (it makes me want to buy this mascara...), don't you think??

“The first time ever I saw your face,

I thought the sun rose in your eyes,
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave,
To the dark and endless skies, my love…”                        > George Michael

What's up?

First, snow came - followed by low temperature - and we can easily say that winter is here!  (for that special event, I bought a new nail polish...grey...like the snow on the roads and the sky when it falls...)

Second, temperature goes up...with the H&M collection by David Beckham...and the only thing I can say is : WOW! (can't take my eyes off of him...)

Here you are (please, enjoy!!) :  

I'd summary this by this sentence : when weather becomes colder, get undress!

"You can feel my lips undress your eyes
Undress your eyes, undress your eyes
Skin can feel my lips they tingle - tense anticipation
This one is an easy one, feel the word and melt upon it
Words of love and words of leisure
Words of poisoned darts of pleasure..."     > Franz Ferdinand

*nail polish = OPI "French quarter for your thoughts"

Upside-Down (like the life...)

Songs sometimes reflect exactly what you feel... this is the case with this one. I tried to make pictures that illustrate my state of mind (a bit convoluted, I confess J).



“I was looking for a way to get close to you, but I got inside,

I got inside,

nothing in the world can pull me back again,

I’m inside, I’m inside,

You,

You turn me upside down,

whenever you’re around,

you turn me upside dow-ow-own,

You,

You turn me upside down,

whenever you’re around,

you turn me upside dow-ow-own,

All I want to do is to do something with you…”      > Alphabeat
