Two Weeks in a Virginia Jail.

'Two weeks in a Virginia Jail.

Twenty thousands dollar bail for my lover, for my lover.'

I'm sorry to write Only some sorrowful things these days but getting conscious everyday you can lose someone whose at the bottom of your foundation, of your being; its tough.

No, I dont mean to sob on my blog, I just dont want to pretend I'm so cool and calm and all, writing this one, because i know There have been and Will be better days.

I hope the next one, I Will tell you everything is fine Again. No doubts. No unbearable distance.

Just LOVE.

From two entities, who don't struggle everyday to be only one ... When it's not possible.

This title was regarding the outfit which made me think of a wedding day outfit. For a guest of course !

No, immaculate White is the Bride-to-be privilege... Although, I am not fond of cliche and whether you even like marriage at all, it has something in the atmosphere about it.

So clearly matching my lines about Love.

Review: Benefit and Too Faced

Hi Dears,
I just love those two brands I knew about but never faced buying them in stores.
Don't know why, cause it's pretty awesome .

So, beginning with Benefit...
I knew the brand, the packaging, but never tried the Brow Bar.
Which is I reckon, a cool name.
I always , had my brows waxed in a French institute and... Well They have seen better days ! Haha. Always something wrong, even when I explained I liked them big and large. There was always the idontwantitsothin result. Erf.
And, then was the day I discover Benefit !

I wanted to use my gift card in Sephora, so I browse cool things there (including what I m about to show you) and took an appointment.

Don't be scared, but this one of my brow Before, being BenefitTED ;)

And then after , that was quick ;)

Now, I'll post a better picture but you can see the shades I put on are on a nice pinky powder touch, I love it.

So, here comes TOO FACED.

I adore the funny sexy names of the shades by the way, especially Voulez Vous, haha French will always be seen as the Romantic language. You should hear, some French speak now, it would ruin your fantasy !

And some nice details, to put the shades on.

In two words, Benefit and Too Faced, are the new cosmetics brands I tried recently and approved. My brows totally agree with btw, for the Brow Bar, you can find in your nearest Benefit store and for this discovery also:

The Gimme Brow! A volumatising gel which creates structure, when you have some tiny non haired space in your brows ;)

It's the good "entre deux" when you don't want to cover them in make up and don't wanna go out all nude. I love the dotted style !

As I don't often wear my bang down, this is a simple pic to show you my 70s outfit of the other day. I had this Dallas hairstyle it was kind of funny.

Present introduction

Hi Dears,
J'ai commencé l'autre jour à vous parler de cadeaux sans vraiment les mentionner, mis à part le divine et somptueux manteau Tara Starlet...

I started last day, enounciating present without mentioning them in fact... A part from the divine and somptuous Girlfriend Coat from Tara Starlet.
I'm thinking of making a special outfit for a streetstyle post by the way !

Good reading and listening, a pink tweedy outfit so perfectly perfect, a little hottie for my cold hands

...

A traveller notebook for me and my Love,

My mother in law just knows me so well, as I've never told her I was fond of Lisbeth Dahl brand...

And here , I got a splendid umbrella!

My sister thought I could be a nail artist... Well, I failed.

And you know what? This is my left hand and I'm right-handed.

Ma soeur a voulu que je m'essaie au nail art... Et bien c'est un peu raté. Le pire e c'est que je n'ai pu réussir à faire que cette main gauche, et qu'en plus je suis droitière.

No consolation.

No words to describe my Wow.

Pas de mots pour décrire ce que j'ai pensé.

I'm not usually really keen of all "modern" shoes.

But there are some flat or platform shoes, I can't help myself to wear.

Why?

Because being a hairstylist, well hurts feet !

Je suis pas à fond normalement sur les chaussures du moment.

Mais certaines chaussures plates, ou compensées bien que décalées avec mes fringues, je ne peux pas m'en empêcher j'adore en porter. Pourquoi?

Parce qu'être coiffeuse, ça te tue les pieds!

Boxing Day, le lendemain de Noël.

Happy BoxingDay everyone...
This may be a bit cliché but I had to show some stunning presies I received !

I had two Amazing Christmas, With the ones I love and that s What matters most.
The first "à la francaise" and the next more british like. But the two were great, I was so delighted!

But first some hors doeuvres...

J'ai eu deux fabuleux Noël, avec les personnes que j'aime c'est sans doute ce qui m'importe le plus.
Le premier fut traditionnel un 24 décembre au soir, et le second plus à "l'anglaise" comme j'en avais l'habitude. Mais les deux furent fabuleux, j'étais très contente !

Pour vous montrer quelques hors doeuvres, voici la recette familiale des sablés.

113 g de beurre (1/2 cup of butter)
390 g de farine (3 cup of flour)
Un oeuf/1egg
1 demi cuillérée à café de sel/Half tea spoon of salt
3/4 d'une cuillère à café de levure chimique/ nearly a spoon of baking powder
1 cuillère à café de cannelle en poudre/1 tea spoon of cinnamon
1/4 cuillerée à café de muscade en poudre/ a pinch of muscade
2 cuillerée à café de gingembre en poudre/2 ginger tea spoon
1/4 de cuillère à café de clou de girofle moulu/ I'd rather put some but not necessarily
100 g de sucre / 1/2 cup of sugar (we put brown not white sugar for the look)
Des raisins secs/ currants

Mélangez la levure, les épices en poudre, la farine et le sel/
Mix baking powder, spices, flour and salt
A part, mélangez le beurre transformé en pommade et le sucre
Transform butter in something slightly creamy, and apart from the rest mix it with sugar
Ajoutez l'oeuf/ Add the egg
Intégrez le mélange des aliments en poudre
Add the first mix
Mélangez tout/ mix it all well !
Préchauffez le four à 180°C (th 6, 350° F)
Etalez la pâte sur un plan de travail, et découpez les bonhommes soit avec un emporte pièce, soit avec un couteau, soit dans in moule comme le mien en silicone de la mort qui tue avec des bonhommes formes
Spread the paste on special mold or cut it with a knife or something nicely shaped
Placez sur la plaque du four, recouverte de papier sulfurisé
Put in the oven, for like 9 minutes as I did
Faites cuire entre 8 et 12 minutes minutes
Sortez le plat et ajouter de suite la deco.
Placez des raisins pour faire les yeux, les boutons de la chemise... Nous avons mis du miel pour faire tenir le tout car nous n'avons pas voulu faire de glaçage spécial mais utiliser les décors rigolotes qu'on avait déjà...
We put some honey to place the eyes and buttons, so it crystallizes a bit after with the decorations added.

Okay mince pies were only here to help concentration...

Yummy!

These are my homemade cosmonauts ... Hahaha we laughed when we had a look at them. Don't pretend they re cute.

But tadam!! It looked great on the table snowsleigh ;)

Androgynous

As in Joan Jett's famous song,
Androgynous
My love's not predetermined by a gender.
I wanted to present her today as the most beautiful woman and unique most of all.

It's perfect when you find the one, who can understands you on so much subjects.
To every one , who found "it" (the Four-letter-word , of course... L-O-V-E, you guys !), NEVER let it go.
