What lace in 2012?

This is a guipure, also called point lace: thick, rigid, with broad patterns, or just plain fabric woven in a way it looks like lace. The look: trendy, slightly “vintage”, but not tacky. How to wear it? A simple detail? Tights to combine with colored pumps, pointed toe and mid-size heels! The top? A blouse to pair with loose pants, or men looking ones, to oppose the styles. Love rock and roll!

No more hair!

It’s spring! Time to show off our legs!

We say enough to those unwanted unsightly hair! An idea for satin legs, quick and well done? Shaving! But to prepare your sensitive skin, you should use an amazing pre-shave cream, coming straight from Italy, which will soften the irritation of the blade. Ready !

Retro touch…

What do you think of floral prints, lace and embroidery? Is it too much for you? A simple detail will quickly bring to your look a sixties “vintage” touch. We love it!
