Sep 29, 2017
Hello, sweeties! Happy Friday!
Today is the very LAST appointment for the "26 Great Nail art Ideas Challenge", I'm very proud to have finished this challenge, for which I created 25 different manicures, but at the same time I am sad that it's finished and I'm looking forward to the next amazing challenge my mates will organize. This last challenge consists in showing you my "Signature Style". I take this occasion to review the latest item I got from Born Pretty Store. This is a wonderful black 15ml Born Pretty Stamping Polish Black #03.
Makeup │Bold look in Navy Blue and Fuchsia [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Sep 25, 2017
Hello, sweeties!
How was your weekend? We had planned to have major fun with friends (for once!) but then my lil'gal got sick and had to cancel our plans. What can you do? Little children are like that.
Anyway, I'm very excited today I'll be packing for our so awaited Fall vacation. We don't leave until Saturday, but I find packing early with young children is more practical, so I'm sure they won't be wearing stuff I'm planning to take with us, that saves me from having to do the laundry 1 hour before departure, LOL. What about you? do you pack in advance or last minute?
As every Monday, it's time for a new makeup look. I've been doing more or less "conventional looks" for quite some time now, and I wanted to try something different for today, something bolder. Well, the outcome it's not quite what I expected, but for a bold you have to admit, it is bold, LOL. The "Monday Shadow Challenge" challenged us to pair "navy blue and fuchsia", here is what I came up with, tell me what do you think!

Shopping my stash │ Transition from Summer to Fall with a Chanel Quad
Sep 21, 2017
Hello, my lovelies! Happy hump day!
I'm super happy because we just booked our next family vacation. As you know if you follow me on Instagram, children get a 3-week autumn school break where we live. So it's a perfect occasion to take a week off! We'll be soon taking off to Croatia and I can't wait for it! We will stay in Dubrovnik for a week and it seems there is so much to see and do, are you from Croatia or have you been to Dubrovnik? Do you have any recommendations on what we shouldn't miss? any good restaurant tips? any activities for families with young children? it would be most welcome!!
But enough about that, it's time to dive into my makeup drawer again and pick a palette for the September edition of my monthly series "Shopping my stash". This series of posts is dedicated to showing some love to makeup products of my own collection instead of buying new. I am rediscovering products that I haven't used in a while and this month of September I've been playing with Chanel Quadra Eyeshadow #236 Tissé Fantaisie, which I haven't reached for in a while. I am also showing you a look I created with it. Keep reading to find out :)

Hello, sweeties!
I hope you all had a great weekend. I was exhausted for no reason most of the last week, and I tried to catch up during this weekend with my blogging activity during the weekend. I charged the hubby with the kids and prepared a few posts for the upcoming week, so I won't be slaking this time!
Enough about that! Let's talk makeup. The"Monday Shadow Challenge" challenged us to pair "orange and red", which wasn't very easy for me to handle. But here is what I came up with and I really hope you like it!
Nail Art │ Simple autumn nails [26GNAI]
Sep 16, 2017
Hello, my lovelies! How are you today?
This weekend we are challenged by the "26 Great Nail Art Ideas" group to make a design inspired by "Autumn". I'm having the hardest time to keep up with the rythm I used to do my nails, my makeup looks for the blog and working for the blog in General. I opted for doing simpler manicures and looks but keep posting, instead of taking a break. So here is the very simple manicure I did with one of the New OPI Iceland Collection polishes, I hope you like it.
Makeup │Brand in the spotlight: Catrice Cosmetics
Sep 15, 2017
Hello my lovelies!
Last Spring I started a new series of posts in the blog about focusing on one makeup brand at the time, particularly those which call my attention or I find that deserve to be featured and shared with you.
On my first post in this series I've introduced you to a fairly new brand called Bronx Colors, but today I'm going to talk about a brand that may sound familiar to you it is Catrice Cosmetics.

Sep 12, 2017
Hello, beauties!
I'm one day late for the Monday Shadow Challenge, on Saturday our wireless router broke, so I only had the minimum Internet availability until today. Things that happen!
The"Monday Shadow Challenge" is always trying to make us think out of the box and today challenge is to create an Autumn look using "pale rose and sunflower yellow". I must admit it was difficult to find an idea but in the end I really loved this combo!
