CNICOL AT THE INDEPENDENT HANDBAG DESIGNER AWARDS

CNICOL AT THE INDEPENDENT HANDBAG DESIGNER AWARDS

I met Cathleen- designer and mastermind behind CNicol- some years ago when we were both studying Handbag Design at the London School of Fashion. It was a really nice bunch of ladies and we all bonded very much. Our teacher Ann Saunders was amazing, peaceful and energetic. It might sound a weird combination but she is just like that. We learnt a ton with her! Cathleen at that time was already…

IT’S GREAT TO BE BACK! EUSHOPIA, THE BLOG AND HELPING A GOOD CAUSE

Hi dears, No, I haven’t been away, although many of you might have had that impression during the last few months. I didnt move from Dubai, I didnt go out that much, I didnt started in a gym or in a religious sect… None of that. I have been quiet in my blogging, in my life and in my social media, just because I decided to start again a project that has been itching me for so long that I really…

WHAT IS AN A-LINE IN FASHION? AND A H-LINE? AND A Y-LINE?

WHAT IS AN A-LINE IN FASHION? AND A H-LINE? AND A Y-LINE?

Hi dears, Today’s words are very interesting indeed. You may have heard  about the A-skirt. the very cute silhouette super famous in the sixties and now in every store. Do you know where these terms are coming from? Let’s get to the definitions and the history of these shapes. By the way the man in the picture is the one creating these concepts. You know him? What is an A-line? The A-Line…

SPECTRE

Hi dears, I went to see Spectre, the last movie of the iconic 007 agent, James Bond. To be honest, I didnt like it that much. I dont know if it is because Daniel Craig to me is not as charming, as riskier, as passionate.. actually, to me he is mechanical even when seducing. Not sure if he wanted to portrait the character like that or if it is just the way he is. The cars are there, the explosions…

SPECTRE

Hola Estimadus, Fui a ver Spectre, la última película del icónico agente 007, James Bond. Para ser honesta, no me gustó mucho. No sé si es porque Daniel Craig para mi no es tan encantador, tan amante del riesgo, tan apasionado… en realidad, me parece super mecánico incluso cuando de seducir se trata, no digamos cuando hay que dar tortas. No estoy segura si Daniel Craig quería mostrar asi al…

NIVEA DOUBLE EFFECT EYE MAKE UP REMOVER

NIVEA DOUBLE EFFECT EYE MAKE UP REMOVER

Hi dears,   I recently received a suprise package and I wanted to thank Nivea for it. They sent me a product to review together with a lovely kohl. The product is called Nivea Double effect Eye Make Up remover. Normally for my eyes I use the Sephora make up remover or the Bioderm Solution Micellaire, but this new product of Nivea is not behind, actually I feel it is gentler with my eyelids and my…

Hang the bra!

Hi dears! I am so happy today. I read that after a 15 year research the french Dr Rouillon has come to the conclusion that the fact that women use a bra is not necessarily better for support or to avoid sagging breasts. Quite the opposite actually, it looks like the fact of using a bra makes some breast tissue and muscles lazy and weak and that leads to … what it is supposed to be avoided by the…

Mary Katrantzou

She is hardworking, imaginative and with such a down to earth personality that you have to fall in love with her and her pieces of ART. For real, I have always liked Mary Katrantzou, the joy behind her pieces, the self confidence in her smile and that easy happy feeling about her personality. In Stylist Arabia super Cressida (a journalist I like a lot) did a special edition about her .. Maria,…

Mary Katrantzou

Trabajadora, imaginativa y con los pies en la tierra, te tienes que enamorar sí o sí de ella y de su trabajo. De siempre me ha gustado Mary Katrantzou,.. la alegría detrás de sus piezas, la confianza en sí misma que exude, su sonrisa y esa sencillez en su personalidad. En Stylist Arabia, súper Cressida (una periodista que me gusta mucho) la entrevistó y sacó una edición especial sobre ella……
