NAILS!

Posted on by

Here we are, summer has finally arrived and the sandals are coming out the boxes.  I think, at this point, one should make sure, one feet are looking good enough to be shown to the world. …nail-polish-beauty_~k8215080137122692

This means, first of all, a good pedicure, then, some nice nail polish. I definitely like SHORT nails and I think they should always be painted. There’s plenty of colours out there but, unless you are under 20, you ought to be careful with the unusual and really bright ones. Fingernails are nice painted too but I don’t actually think they must be. Again, I think they should be always kept quite short, possibly a little square.  This is what I like right now, a dark shade for feet and a lighter one of the same colour for hands. For instance, if you use a dark grey for toe nails I would paint fingernails with a pearl grey, here are some colours I like:




These are all day colours. I do think one might even go for something more daring for the evening time, provided the clothes are extremely simple!



two more ideas…

I know, this is not something one can do at home, for a special evening though one can perhaps invest in somebody who is able to do it, otherwise I read on a site that a toothpick can be used to do little, simple drawings…good luck! E.

SUMMER WATCH

Posted on by

I like to have a summer watch. The thing is, I don’t want to bother with  changing it if for instance I go in the water or for a walk in the mountains. Having said that, I like it to be “right” for any other occasion too. Not that I have lots of “dressing up” engagements during the summer though! Anyway, I think the best watch for the job is a plastic one. I am not for bright colours, as mentioned before! I have come to the conclusion that grey is the perfect one. I have found this really nice CASIO, it is a very dark grey but with a little blue on the screen and that vintage feel…. I think it’s just what I was looking for!

B640WB-2BEF-1-2030193809 I considered a white watch, one needs to be careful with this colour though as it shows up a lot, especially on suntanned skin. I also think it would need to be quite simple and NO glitter please! Well, I think that’s the case with any watch anyway.

Of course there are a few colours even I would consider, one cannot obviously wear them with everything, maybe the burgundy one or the multicoloured ones,certainly not the other one and anyway not if one is already wearing bright coloured clothes!

Finally, a couple more grey watches….. E.

Shoes!

Have I mentioned the fact that I love shoes?!
I couldn’t possibly resist these gorgeous brogues…. worn with a pair of linen trousers or a pair of old jeans, even a pair of bermudas, legs permitting!
The ballerinas are lovely too, very subtle but different, and the colour, that’s soooo easy to match.
