Chanel Goes Pearls

By Susu, February 15, 2010 5:47 pm    

I just had to whiz over to see what Chanel is up to these milky mid-winter days… The result didn’t leave me stony-hearted – or maybe it just did! Chanel had gone pearls, flowers and all things sparkly – in abundance. They’d conserved their trademark, black and white magic, adding to it touches of effulgence and glitter. I adore the LBD – in the third photo – with pearls lustrously running along the back.

Pearls make me feel like a real lady. Undoubtedly. Along with silk, faux fur and feathers. What about you fashion gals, what do slip on when you want to feel like a veritable princess?

Be My Valentine

By Susu, February 12, 2010 5:47 pm    

Three sugar-coated years ago, my sweetheart and I got engaged on the veritable Day of Love. We dined and latterly exchanged rings in front of a sturdy, renaissance golden gate in the freezing French wintry air. But how lovely it was… living a princess story here in my adopted homeland. Far from loved ones, and yet so close to my heart’s delights.

Speaking of honeyed treats… The ever charming Nina from Ballerina’s Closet Obsession awarded me with a membership into the International Bloggers Community. Merci beaucoup my fellow dancer soul! Subsequently, I wish to pass on the pleasure to these lovely mademoiselles, whose style, life and thoughts give me daily inspiration and enchantment.

Blue is flourishing in abundance on the fashion fields. I love the combination blue-black-white for its clarity. Every tint has its place and the powerful hues mingle together in the most energizing of ways. I wanted to tilt towards office chic with this ensemble.

Being stylish, but with an interesting and personalized twist has has evolved into paramount importance to me. I didn’t used to care about attire uniqueness. Now nothing seems to matter more. To feel that I exist in this metropolis. Living life to its fullest – letting my inner flow onto the outer. We all trace our lives and stories. We all have value.

How do you feel about being unique – what makes you different from others? The lovely detail. The day-changing edge. I’d love to know my dears…

My Blueberry Nights

By Susu, February 5, 2010 3:50 pm    

I recently stumbled upon the movie My Blueberry Nights (2007) with Jude Law and Norah Jones. And I just fell in love… love love and love. It’s a story of a café keeper in the twilight blue New York, under intriguing shadows of a squeaky subway. No one eats the blueberry pie, but somehow Jeremy, the café owner still keeps making it. Until one night, when the crepuscle ushers in a young mysterious woman. Jeremy and Elizabeth share a piece of pie, along with heart-breaking news. And then, scandalized, she takes off… soul-searching. He’s got to find her. To share a piece more. But she’ll only write him letters, from where he doesn’t know.

I could dwell on this film forever. I actually will. I’ll pull it out regularly and glide away for a time of a sweet nectar filling… These will be my blueberry nights. If any of your dears have seen the movie, please do tell if you fell under its charm.

Totally Taupe

By Susu, February 1, 2010 4:01 pm    

This spring will be about café au lait nails. We shall also spot lots of khaki garb, military influences and all things tawny. Black and white lace will be having a lovely chai party out on the town. As I’m daydreaming about mellow terrace lingering out and about in Paris, I wanted to primp myself up with something chic and dainty.

Yesterday I spent a sweet afternoon in a cute coffee shop with some dear gal pals. I ventures my way into a little alley in the Latin Quarters – on the go marveling at the illuminations that are still graciously left out after the holiday season. What a honeyed after taste.

Paris makes me fly. Paris gives me the energy to create. I owe this city so much. Talking about creations… the above corset just had to “come out”. With this said, gals, have yourselves a sensual start to February!

Call Me a Diva

By Susu, January 29, 2010 4:42 pm    

…no, please do not! Well, if being a diva means arrogance. If, on the other hand, it signifies grace and generosity, a person who does what they can to change this world, to leave their little print, then I’d gladly be counted in. With this outfit a look back into Hollywood’s golden years. I love the shots of movie stars driving a convertible, sunglasses and a scarf carefully embracing their faces, leaving us in terrible desire to see more. Hoping the gracious wind would blow just a dash closer…

Living a glamorous life can be here and now. I often stop to wonder all the lovely things that surround me – sweet shades of light in the city, sunsets an sunrises, smells coming from bakeries or homes cooking pasta, pretty women dressed up in dainty boots and skirts, hurrying to catch their subway. I make my way into my favorite café, order my lil’ demitasse, and just dream away the time of a delightful sip!
