In Spanish “Cropped Pants”, they fall above the ankles, are called Puddle Skipping. Funny name ha? The pants themselves are also pretty funny-looking. One of the best qualities of cropped pants is how young and fresh they look compared to regular long pants and how much slimmer they can help us look especially when worn as a one-color suit.
I’ve been having so much fun organizing my home, we just got our furniture after 4 long months of waiting for the shipment, and since I love fashion so much I’ve been baptizing each room with a fashion designer’s name. Here is a list of one of the coolest-looking home offices I’ve seen lately (and not so lately) and here are the designers who I would pair them with. Enjoy and have a happy mid-week!

Since I posted that beautiful family room with studded paneling walls yesterday I realized that even though not everybody is keen to be bold and panel their walls with pyramids, many still like to add small touches of it to their lives. Studded fashion is far from ending, you know! Fendi Spring 2013 collection let that known very clear. We’ll be seeing more of it in the coming year. If you are willing to get on the wagon, here is a list for you. enjoy! Valentino Flap bag, stud hip,Iphone case, pyramid statement necklace, Valentino pyramid sunglasses, pyramid leather cuff, Rockstud leather gloves, Fendi Spring 2013 shoe collection.
Everybody wants to look their best and every woman wants to look younger than their age. I started using anti aging serum about a year ago and I’ve used many different ones from Oil of Olay to the more expensive ones like Skinmedica anti aging serum. Even though I have a pretty nice skin I have combination skin which means that I’ve been dealing with blackheads and enlarged pores, mostly on my nose for most of my adult life and if your skin is like mine and you use serum plus anti aging night cream then you know it’ll only get worse! I have found a very simple and common sense solution how to get rid of black head once and for all while at the same time I use my creams more smartly. I simply don’t use cream on my nose, not at nights not during the day. The only product I use on my entire face is sunblock. I’ve been implementing this for the past six months and my skin is as clean as a baby’s. I’ve noticed that my creams last longer now since I end up using less. I also put my night creams on early, if I’m not going out at night, so they’ll work for a longer time.
For night I use.
Givenchy VAX’IN serum and it’s not bad, but I’m really looking forward to start using Vichy LiftActiv Serum 10 of which I’ve heard wonders. On top I use Shiseido Bio-Performance super restoring cream for the night. It’s a bit more oily than I like. I prefer SkinMedica Dermal Repair Cream which is smoother and the skin absorbs it much more quickly. I have an obsession with my eye area. I think that’s where age shows the most. My eye area is hyper sensitive so I wasn’t able to use retinol products until I tried RoC Retinol correction SENSITIVE eye cream and it’s the one that I like the most so far. I use Kiehl’s Midnight recovery concentrate for my neck and decollate. I also use it on my hands before bed and I love how soft and better my hands look.
For the day.
I apply a bit of Givenchy VAX’IN serum only where I really need it. (forehead and eye area)
SkinMedica Redness Relief CalmPlex. And Shiseido Sun Protection Lotion 50+ face and body. I love the liquid consistency of this.
I’m especially exited today because after four long living-with-rental-furniture-months we are finally getting our stuff tomorrow. It’s play time! I have a pretty clear idea of where things are going to go, but boy can’t that change? One thing that I’m certain though is the gallery walls I
want to create around the house. I’m a big fan of picture cluster walls and I’ve realized that when there is a lot of different ways to create them and/or to display them, each produces a different background. From a complete harmonious and balanced display, to careless and Bohemian one to a more eclectic grouping. Each and everyone translates the personal
lifestyle of their owners, as it should be. So I’ve been paying attention about how to create the best gallery walls or wall art composition as some call them. For creating a harmonious and balanced gallery wall is good to keep things simple and hang each picture at the same distance vertically and horizontally speaking. One thing to keep in mind is to keep all frames and matting in the same color.
