LWD

What is the one thing that every woman should have? You say litte black dress (LBD)? Well, that’s the thing everybody thinks that every woman should have. But actually next to LBD is standing a litte white dress (LWD). And that is a must-have-dress for more goregous, self confident and venturous women. Everybody can wear LBD but LWD is a thing that few of us dare to put on. And the moment you decide to be that woman, you make yourself a great favor. You find more self confidence in you and it comes out with the shine. And everybody can see it. Not to mention the fact that probably there aren’t many white dresses around you. Especially in the evening event. So put yourself in white and enjoy.

Searching the right scent



For years I’ve been searching for one special fragrance that would reflect who I am. I started with Cacharel Noa and loved it back then. But how could I tell it was the right one, when I hadn’t had tried the others. It’s like searching the right partner in your life – when you are in the beginning of your road you don’t stop when you get together with the first one, because you can’t tell if this is the best you can end up with. At least I thought so. So when me and Noa story was over I chose another one and so it went. I never used one perfume twice. And then one day, many years after my first real perfume, I thought that I knew what is that I want. I wanted the perfume I had had first – Noa. I was so sure that this was the best one and this should be my signature perfume, the scent that defines who I am. So while being on the trip I went to fragrance store and bought it – my “ideal” perfume Noa. And extra bonus was that since it had been on the market many years already, it was much cheaper than it used to be. And I thought that’s great, it really suits me. Well and then I got home and started to use my perfume and guess what, it didn’t work. It brought back old memories when I first used it and it almost felt like back then. But I have grown so much with those years and definitely I am not the person I used to be. I used the entire bottle but now I know that it’s not me and I won’t use it again. It’s like some old relationship that you tend to over emphasize and when you would get back together it won’t happen. There was a reason you broke up. So better use this time to new ones, who haven’t done anything wrong jet and maybe they won’t do it in the future as well. If you have found the right one then you don’t let it go. Even if it is your first one. 

And my latest love is Calvin Klein Sheer Beauty. Before I bought it I went to store at least 5 times to smell it and every time it felt more right to get together with it. And now when I have used ¼ of the bottle I am almost certain that I’m going to use it next time as well. It feels good and it feels right. It’s so pure and easy and there hasn’t been a day I didn’t want to use it. And I don’t care what else perfume world has to offer. Sounds like true love, huh? :) Well, I hope our relationship lasts!

Style: Christy Turlington

Christy Turlington with her big smile and natural style has been around already more than 25 years. She’s been the face of Calvin Klein, Maybelline, Versace etc. And even though she is a supermodel, she is able to stay like girl-next-door and down to earth. She has good sense of style and can make simple clothes look very elegant and chic. Minimalistic but femine style is what looks great on her. In addition of being model she is also a wife and a mother. She loves sport and is into marathon running and yoga. She speaks about the importance of health, motherhood and charity and also gives her helping hand on the issues. She is a person to admire!

Silk summer dress


Summer is basically over and everybody is already talking about fall and winter clothes but I still make a quick look back at an ageless summer must have which is a long silk dress. Believe me, it’s worth investing in it. For dress like that the best fabric is colorful and with interesting pattern and needs a very simple cut. To get the dress that you can have for years the best option is to find a designer who makes it just for you (well, actually it is the second best option). Quality fabric stores have wide choice of different silk materials and together with designer you can make it happen. Or you can do like I did and make it yourself. And that is the best option, yeah...
Silk dresses like that don’t need much – minimal jewelry and simple footwear (depending on the occasion)and it works. For example it can be worn at the beach with sandals, in downtown with shoes or in summer evening party with jacket and high heels. Like I told you, it’s worth investing in it!
