Spring casual

April 29th, 2007 by webmaster

What casual can be without a correct T-short? This spring the best, the most negligent and the most comfortable clothes are represented in Guess, Chevignon and Lacoste collections.
Behind ideally fitting jeans recover in old kind Levi’s. You will be surprised, how it is pleasant to return to classics of a genre after glamour Italian design brands. In the same place it is possible to look for jeans shoes, black-and-white gym shoes with prints, suede sport shoes (for example, bright yellow), moderately brutal belts in beige-brown palette.
But the most classical sea casual is, certainly, represented by Lacoste. Men’s and female collections are opened with the white and blue colors symbolizing the sea and a year’s cool: long fluttering skirts and blouses, short shorts with the silvered strip. Then light tone give a up the place to a classical combination black and white: dresses in the blacken strip, man’s black polo with a print in the form of a white tie, female and men’s a jumper with classical geometry. In a man’s collection the basic idea is given to the comfort. Striped shirts with clasped collar and faultlessly picked up trousers, and from under them the tip of a usual house pajamas is seen. Geometrical motives of shirts and shorts are pertinent both on court, and in club, convenient for walks on fresh air. The recipe of success Lacoste in the spring - is a successful combination of elegance, sports mood and funk. And we shall add: the recipe of success of clothes is an elegance and minimalism.
It is erroneous to think, that style casual does not assume jeweler ornaments. Pay attention to BIBIGI mark. The rare jeweler house presumes so naughty jeweler ornaments with brilliants. New Tribu collection has amazed even old adherents of jewels from BIBIGI. Unexpectedly bright, young line of ornaments - precious kulon from white, yellow gold and multi-colored enamel in the form of amusing animated animals - should cause delight.

4. Don’t keep old things of two-year-old prescription and if it is a pity to throw them away - you may wear them somewhere at home or in the village. And here something from your grandmother’s wardrobe may be extremely fashionable.
5. Try to trace the last tendencies of fashion in magazines or to look through clauses in the Internet.

Fleur de Carotte - L’ Artisan Parfumeur

April 26th, 2007 by webmaster

Fleur de Carotte is one of those aromas that surprise with even the name. L’Artisan Parfumeur House, one of the first selective perfumery houses, likes to surprise all perfumery world.
Aroma begins with a wave apricot-caramel sweet through which the way dairy-earthy and damp-musky smell similar to the note of an iris is felt: these are the seeds of carrots. Wait autumns and collect seeds of carrots, keep them in palms - and here it is! Carrots sound on obviously perfumery background of a rose and osmantus. It is worth of mentioning that the aroma is quite strange and unusual, but it is quite attractive. And it is so much contrasted on the background of traditional citron colognes.
Loop of aroma is very thin, warm, flower and hardly sweetish - here is the influence of rose (less) and osmantus (more), as the senior perfumery sisters. Carrots are only added as a mealy cloudy component. From kitchen aroma it becomes more likely garden or tropical aroma. It is the aroma for hot summer. It is proof, but not straining with its presence. It is egoistic aroma; it smells not more strongly as face cream and body lotion.
If you would like to amaze friends with more volumetric loop, something similar (due to osmantus) and much more proof (due to powerful synthetics) is represented by Parfum brand de Nicolai under the name Fig Tea. This “Fig Tea” will have time to bother you before you can wash it off under a shower. However it doesn’t contain carrot and it does not crackle.
“Carrots Flowers” have impressed the perfumery market only with the name, not having shown worthy financial results. Probably, therefore aroma has not appeared in basic series L’Artisan Parfumeur yet.
Fleur de Carotte by L’Artisan Parfumeur (2000). Carrots, estragon, a rose, osmantus, zinziber.

6 bras which should be in your wardrobe

April 24th, 2007 by webmaster

It would seem that this thing has nothing important, in fact it is hidden under clothes and it is even invisible. However, it is not so simple. The incorrectly picked up bra can deteriorate your figure. This statement especially concerns lucky owners of magnificent bust, as incorrectly picked up bra can spoil the form of a breast.
Seamless bra The seamless bra ideally approaches for daily use. It has a cup, made of very thin material. Such cup simultaneously forms a breast and provides support. Such variant is irreplaceable, if you put on a T-short, a vest or a blouse made of fitting material. Remember, that such bra should not have any bows, ruches and others visible to eye details.
Sports bra It is specially intended for physical exercises as provides the maximal comfort of movement and good support. In that case you should not think how to correct fallen strap, etc.
Bra without shoulder-straps It is irreplaceable thing for the open dresses. Such bra should be simultaneously elastic and provide reliable support of the breast. Quality of such bra very strongly influences your comfort. Some modern models have the imperceptible elastic fastenings allowing them to become inseparable from a dress.
Bra for deep décolleté Such bra has lost a part of the connecting fabric keeping cups together. Thus, at deep décolletés and “capes” it is possible to not be afraid, that the part of a bra will be shown.
“Sexual” bra It can be made of lacy fabrics, have the cups increasing the volume of breast, and to abound with various details which transform such bagatelle into a work of art. Such bra is better looked at absence of clothes, rather than at its presence. Such thing is badly combined with usual things, especially with fitting blouses as gives superfluous volume. However, it ideally approaches for romantic dates and translucent clothes.
Bra with shoulder-straps, incorporating in one point on the back
Such bra is simply necessary in the summer. If you put on a vest without sleeves, shoulder-straps will not be visible because they are fixed in the center of a back.
Do not forget, that the correctly chosen underwear - is one of the most important points of ideal image.

Ferré for Men - Ferré

April 20th, 2007 by webmaster

Having represented in September, 2006, aroma Ferré for men, Ferré House has followed the tendency, which has been set by Dior Homme in the world lux-aromas a year earlier. However, this tendency is not absolutely new, and it has been (more likely) revived in XXI century, - an iris in men’s aromas. In Europe the novelty has appeared just before the season, as well as it belongs to spring-and-summer aromas.
Black classical packing contains a small secret. It is not a usual box, it consists of two parts: top and bottom. Though it adds complexities at manufacturing and raises cost, packing disappoints are more likely. The bottle can be put identified by the matched name of the designer.
Aroma starts with freshness of the lavender, powdered and softened by an iris. And it makes related it with Dior’s aroma; however Dior Homme aroma becomes warm and sweetish on the skin (a coco and amber). Perfumer Pierre Burdon has made development Ferré for men longer, and less obvious because of this. Cold lavender-iris powder remains fresh (synthetic citruses) for a long time, that directs at ideas of cold and strict Victorian tradition.
The advertising press release mentions about used in Ferré for men unique note of black iris. Here are the main three variants of this flower: Iris Nigricans (a national flower of Jordan), Iris Petrana (Arabian peninsula) and Iris Chrysographes (China) - the first one is black, but it is too rarely used in perfumery, and two other kinds have not black flowers, but also of dark colors -chocolate and dark-violet. Whether it is necessary to consider, what this aroma - is attempt to use the Chinese perfumery raw material instead of glorified (and consequently extremely expensive) Italian Florentine iris? In any case, elegance of iris does not cause any doubts.
In an hour cool aroma will be replaced with flower-wood heart. Flowers are modest and quiet; a tree by the Italian tradition hardly is caustic-spicy. Those, who is familiar with Dreamer aroma from Versace, perfectly know on what to be guided. Burdon has made a loop rather similar to the similar aroma of XXth century, but he has also added some magic substances: refined and imperceptible aromas of the present time. Fresh start, flower-wood heart and a warm loop - it looks like it will be the best men’s lux-perfumery in 2007. It is impossible to say, that this aroma becomes the best perfumery release of this year. It is impossible to say, that Ferré for men - the main disappointment of the year. It is between paradise and a hell, in the same place, where also all people are- on our guilty and sometimes happy Earth.
Ferré for Men (2006). The lavender, pineapple, a bergamot, a jasmine, a rose, a geranium, sandal tree, oak moss, amber, vanilla etc.
