Jewelry for generations

image found here HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you all celebrated well. I had a bad flu over the whole Christmas period so I haven't been up for much. Now we are off to Australia for 3 weeks. I am so excited. Pete Doherty and Rose Forde join Hannah Martin in designing a jewellery collection inspired by aspects of history and the future. I will try and prepare a few wedding posts for you. The latest I really liked: The idea was to design durable and timeless pieces that could be handed down through the generations. The collections consists of 15pieces including rings and cufflinks.

L'amour Fou & Happy Christmas

The documentary about Yves Saint Laurent tells the story about the love of his life Pierre Bergé. It's always good to have a creative partner in crime. They have been a couple for 50 (!) years building their business, sharing their creativity and supporting each other with love. A documentary I am really looking forward to watching. May you all have a wonderful Christmas time! And here comes the trailer:

I am still trying to ignore the winter and snow outside. That's why I am digging orange lips right now they remind me to focus on the upcoming holiday. If you like the orange "let's-escape-winter-look" as well, you can find a make-up tutorial for this look here. Through my new day job beside Blushless I decided to listen to my passion and the direction that life is pushing me through. That means I am about to start a new career as make up artist. It's not a completely new field for me but I will built a brand new portfolio and keep learning.

A truly Blushless Bride

A wonderful bride just sent me photos of her wedding in her Blushless dress. They make a such a stunning couple and it always makes me happy to see my dresses on real people. Unfortunately some of their guests didn't agree with publishing photos of them in the web, that's why I can share just a small selection of this truly fun German summer wedding. But this photo is my favorite anyway. Thank you Sandy for sharing! And all the best for the future.

it is definitely winter

These are lifting me up: + First of all congratulations to winter bride Anna And The Ring, who just tied the knot, at the weekend. + I love the mug with the reindeer by Hudson's Bay x Geoff McFetridge, it reminds me that I will escape the winter soon towards hot Australia. + Orangey-red lipstick and glowing cheeks: A warm look that cheers me up and could do as bridal make up!? via Vena Cava + The words KOALA ROOFTOP & ROCK POOL that I discovered while planning the holiday. Yes, we are going on holiday! Yes I am going to meet the parents. The weather in London lately feels life threatening. For me. I am just not built for it. I know that some people don't mind winter and others even enjoy it. I am trying.
