Calife

Paloma’s Calife  remains on my wish list. How about you, do you like them too? They bring the sensuous style of Morocco. Available in sterling silver, 18 k yellow, white and rose gold from Tiffany & Co.

“The nine bands of a Calife ring drape together around your finger like a turban. They glide together, separating and overlapping with silky movement.” – Paloma Picasso


The Cabas Chyc

Continuing in the iconic Yves Saint Laurent fashion of functional and chic, this YSL bag is a modern take on the iconic tote. Meet the YSL Cabas Chyc.

The comfortable tubular handles are secured to the bag’s soft, sturdy body via gold-toned metal rings, and the double zip and leather flap with gold-toned “Y” buckle keep items in the bag  secure. The bag comes in medium and large in either supple leather outer or calfskin, with accent panels that create a subtle “Y” outline, that allows for the bag to sit comfortably against one’s body.

 


College Grad

When I graduated college last year with a degree in Journalism I honestly didn’t think I’d have that hard of a time finding a job. I mean, of course I’d been reading the news and hearing the stories about the job market but I was a college educated woman and I had a lot going for me.

My resume was stacked with stuff outside of school and I even had some great reference letters to hand over. That job just didn’t come, though, and it took forever for me to finally find something and it was all the way in Texas. I actually had a lot of fun during the moving process, finding a place, getting Just Energy and talking to my new neighbors but the job itself sort of leaves some things to be desired. I guess I just didn’t realize the crisis applied to me and I figured my education would get me out of the hot seat but message to grads out there: that’s not the case.

You’ve got to be lucky!

Collection Les Scintillances De Chanel

Just looking into this new collection makes me want to buy more even if I have a lot. I just love them!

The shades are simply scintillating! I’m taken by the festive reds and rich golds and who says you can’t wear these colors during the Holidays? Since I’ve been clad in black since my Mom’s passing, I’ve been looking for ways to add some color into my wardrobe and look decent without going overboard with colors.

London On My Mind

It’s been almost eight years since my husband and I visited London. I didn’t even realize that it’s been that long. This year has been a lackluster year for travel for us by choice, as we only had one international travel, but the travel bugs that we are, I’m sure that it will be a different story in 2012.

Last year’s destination for us was Monaco, the French Riviera and Ireland. Our trend indicates the common denominator – Europe. Yes, we are determined to see every European country that are interesting to us. One place I wouldn’t mind going back to however, is London. And next year’s London Olympics might just be the perfect time to visit again.

With that in mind, thorough travel planning and a well thought out itinerary is imperative. Being the travel planner in the family, and knowing how husband and I are very particular with accommodations, I should really start looking into possible accommodations this early. Add to that the allure of the Olympics, I’m pretty sure that getting the best Olympics 2012 accommodation will be a race among many who are planning to be there in time for all the festivities. With  this most awaited sporting event being held within the Greater London area, it will make more sense to incorporate in the plan and secure one of the London apartments within a stones throw away for accessibility.

If we push through with this travel plan, I wouldn’t mind going back to see the Crown Jewels of England at the Tower of London. This time, I’m sure I’d be more interested and keen on looking at the pieces because of my recent interest and passion for gems and jewels lately. And how can I not miss the traditional fish and chips? Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Last but not the least, I want to go shopping for essentials from my favorite store that is nowhere to be found here in the United States – that is Marks & Spencers.

It’s never an easy job to plan for a vacation. It requires meticulous planning, but for a destination like London, the option to peruse online portals like that of – HomeAway.co.uk that specializes in offering great Holiday rental properties makes travel planning a lot easier.

Everything sounds great and good in writing. Now, let me first ask for my ‘financier’s’ approval so this plan will come into fruition.


Red: Juvenus

I’ve been looking into this line from Shu Uemura. I’m a big fan of their Cleansing Oil but should I decide to try this, it will be the fist time. Has anyone tried this before?

 


He Loves PacMan

If I want to see my husband unleash the kid in him, all I have to do is get him to go with me to a fun and family center where arcade machines are housed.

It was such a big surprise to me more than twelve years ago, when I discovered his passion for Pac Man. Yes, that famous, landmark and well loved Pac Man arcade game that originated in the 80′s. It is in fact considered as an icon and one of the classics,  and known to be synonymous with video games.

To this day, he is still passionate with the game. He does play it online whenever he has the time and he get his big thrill from doing so. He actually has this grand idea, and he is considering getting a Pacman arcade machine gaming table so he can enjoy his Pac Man in style in the comfort of our home. Going as far as customizing the gaming table is included in his plan. With his very hectic schedule though, I wonder if the cost of acquiring the machine will be more than worth it if he doesn’t find the time to play. I’m saying this only because I am no player,  I’m not into any kind of arcade games and never will be. I love to read – that’s just it.

I wouldn’t mind having the gaming table here at home though. It will make for a great conversation piece for when we have guests over and finally my framed wedding gown will graduate from that role.  Beyond that, it will also be a good entertainment alternative.
