Month: April 2013

Eric Yerno, the owner of this home where a mélange of Art-deco, oriental influences and geometry beautifully coincide in a black and white home, is from France and moved to Spain in 1998 to open a PR firm. Eric had help from Victoria Melian to make this home truly jaw dropping. Published in AD Spain March issue, photographed by Pablo Suloaga and styled by Ines Sentmenat.

The sofa by Maison Jansen was inherited by his grandmother.  I think the leather upholstery is just genius.  The tables are from the 50’s.  If I ever find a table like these ones I would bring it home with me even if I need to buy an extra plain ticket.

Sadly I never got to try these fabulous sunglasses  before I asked a friend to purchase them for me in the US so when she brought them back and I finally did… it didn’t go as expected.  Let’s just say I’m no Miranda Kerr and I hopelessly have to sell them.  They never have been worn and they are in their original package as they came.  These one I’m selling are smaller than the ones used by Miranda Kerr. Lens width: 53 mm – 2.03″ Bridge size: 25 mm – 0.98″
Earpiece length: 140 mm – 5.51″  IF YOU LIVE IN SAO PAULO or anywhere close contact me (bellevivir@gmail.com) if you are interested.   Thank you!

 Looking fabulous, relaxed and burning calories while wearing kicks.  Smart!
Yes you read that title right!  If you still refer to these comfortable and stylish shoe options as sneakers, I hate to break the news to you, you’re getting old!  They are not sneakers anymore they are called “kicks” and no, it has nothing to do with the literal meaning.  It just sounds cool as they look as of late.  Get yourself a pair of converse and feel younger!  By looking at these images this post should’ve been named Kicks and Celine.
 New Balance and floral pants.
 Celine and Isabel Marant red kicks.
Love this look!
 Such a beautiful color combo burgundy and black.  Yves Saint Laurent sneakers.  I mean kicks!

It’s Earth day today!  This beautiful and made-to-be-perfect, even though not so much lately, place where we live has a real threat called Global Warming.  To help make a difference to GW, as in every other kind of change we want to see in the world, we should start with ourselves, in this case our homes.  If you have a private yard why not plant a tree?  Plant it on a special date or for a special cause and make it memorable, if you don’t have a private backyard then bring a tree inside the house.  Since the choice of the plant is only yours, I hope you can find among this suggestions a few ideas for planters.  Have green Earth day!

Trends come and go and if you don’t have a very open mind and have a fashion perspective, the first thought at any new trend could be daunting.  One that perhaps is easier to adapt to is the one with sculptural and/or Geometry shapes since its one that doesn’t need much color to be striking.  Either worn in a futuristic-minimalistic way or in a bold-colorful way the structural shapes stand by itself.  Enjoy!

“And I will do everything that I can as long as I am President of the
United States to remind the American people that we are one nation under
God, and we may call that God different names but we remain one nation.”  Barack Obama.

My prayers go out to those hurting physically and emotionally this morning from the horrible attacks of the Boston Marathon.
