LA MODE C'EST LA VIE

Fashion is passion and obsession, something you can't live without.

Fashion is a way to express your personality.

Fashion is life.

I've made this video with love for life.

ALL EYES ON CARINE ROITFELD - EXCLUSIVE FOR MAC

Who has never heard about Carine Roitfeld?

I guess everyone do.

Carine Roitfeld was the editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris from 2001 to January 31, in  2011.

After ten years at Vogue Paris, Roitfeld resigned her contract and left in January 2011 for concentrating on personal projects.After leaving Vogue Paris, 

Roifeld returned to freelance stylings for Chanel campaigns, designed the window displays for Barneys New York and added some other projects.

At the end of 2011 she confirmed the rumors that she is working on her own magazine with a different approach than the one at Vogue Paris. 

In her own words:  "I will always be irreverent in my own way, but I will try to use new approaches. I've used a lot of cigarettes, a lot of sexy pictures, a lot of naked girls. I will try to do something totally different now, because I don't want to get bored of myself or to bore my readers. So, if I learn something new today, I will use it. I have to reinvent myself."

Roitfeld was also named in Tatler’s top 10 best-dressed list in January 2010. She's absolutely an icon.

Whille the world is still waiting for her new magazine called CR Fashion Book , Roitfeld and MAC surprised by one of her new other projects. The design of the packages includes the same handwriting initials like her forthcoming Magazine. 

No surprise, the focus is on smokey eyes - how expected, the lips are neutrals and the only pop of color are by 

nails.

The collection contains two full face kits - both sets with a set of four eyeshadows and a cremeblend blush. The collection is also completed by a sheer tranclucent nude liptick in "Tropical Mist", a khol and brow pencil, a fluid line eyeliner, as brow set, two Mascaras ,lashes, some brushes, Face and Body,Foundation, Mineral Concealer, Nail Laquer and some "Good Luck" star stencils for beauty marks.

The collection is available now in MAC stores in the US and October for all International Stores, in Germany at the Premium Departmentstores like KaDeWe (Berlin), Alsterhaus (Hamburg) and Oberpollinger (München).

Roitfeld also stars in the collection's ad campaign, shot by Mario Sorrenti.

  Roitfeld prefers to create a sexy tired eye look. 

I guess, the look is francaise, il es très Roitfeld and I like the look pretty much.

The look contains all what you need to look fabolous.

MAC releases a behind the scenes video, where Roitfeld tells her onw beauty tips.

Me for myself, I've worked for a long time as a Make-up Artist, I've worked for a long time in the beauty segment with high expensice niche market products, worked for photoshoots and video shots, love to do make up on my own and I highly recommend MAC products! I'm working with MAC products since the last 14 years and they are simply the best!

FASHION IS THE BEST WAY TO EXPRESS THAT YOU ARE A LADY...!

Fashion is for me one of the best 
possibilites , to underline that you are woman.


A Woman who lives her feminity and love to be a lady.

Do you know this quote?

"Treat yourself as a queen and you'll attract a king."



Absolutely right, ladies!
 Treat yourself in the best way you can and expect nothing less.
Recognize your own worth!You are wonderful just like you are.
You're presence , your personality, spending time together with you is a present.



You are a woman. You are a lady.
Don't forget to show your inner and outer elegance.

Have respect, be kind and have always good manners.
Treat people like you would be treated by others as well.

But in all you do, don't forget your worth. 

Me for myeself, I have passion for the thirties and fifties style - pure feminity, pure curves , pure elegance ... and no Rockabilly style, please.

I know, that we all have different body types, that we all have different measurements, but every person, every woman has something special about her what should be focused and highlighted.
Some of us have beautiful long legs, another body type is curved like a Sophia Loren or Marilyn Monroe, and most important - love yourself and you will glow by your self-confidence.

And no matter if you have 5 pounds more or not, your beauty will shine and the world will be your oyster.

The recent fashion trends are perfect - pencil skirts, broad belts, leather combined with silk and lace, velvet material, fine gloves.

You can also choose a boyish look, if you combine this with very femine accessoires like pearls, rhinestone jewelry, red lips, peep toes etc  (like Marlene Dietrich did).



Fashion is great to play with your own facets.

I wish you all a perfect day, a lot of laughter and the brightest sun at your most beautiful place - in your heart.

Nadine,
XOXO

CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN MAKES DREAMS COME TRUE

 Christian Louboutin - once pronounced his name, heart beats are faster and eyes are more sparkling.
It's quite the same as we've  heard as a little girl the fairy tale of Cinderella.
To be honest, who didn't want to met the fairy godmother , wearing this precious blue dress, wearing the dreamy glass slippers , riding in a pumpkin carriage? I guess every little girl. Bibbidi-Bobbidi, Bibbidi - Bobbidi, Bibbidi-Bobbibi-Boo ♫ ♫

Cinderella is one of the most beautiful fairy tale princesses. Little girls growed up, but still waiting for her own Prince Charming - coming back with this precious glass slipper which means the world ♥












The fairy godmother may have changed outwardly a bit, but her present to us is even more beautiful than what we have imagined in our wildest dreams.








She calls Christian Louboutin and designed the Cinderella glass Slipper for celebrating the re-release of Walt Disney's Cinderella on DVD and Blu-Ray.








Louboutin's press release describes the shoe as follows :

Delicate lace adorned with crystals gives these slippers an enchanting look. 

Two sparkling butterflies rest prettily on the shoes, one landing on the vamp while the other sits closely behind atop of the crystal covered heel, gently brushing the ankle. 

Louboutin’s signature red soles add the final dash of excitement as Cinderella’s slippers come alive. 

Louboutin is a French shoe and bag designer, who was born on January 7, 1963 in Paris. He raised up in the 12 th arrondissement and is the only son of the family, together with three sisters.

During his early teenage years Louboutin has been fascinated by high heels. He discovered his passion for the first time during a visit to the Musée des Art Océaniens  by a sign which showed a crossed stiletto heel. This should prevent that female visitors could damage the valuable parquet with her ​​high heels. The young Louboutin was captivated by the beauty of the shape of the shoe and began to copy this over and over again.

In the beginning of his career Louboutin tried to sell shoes to the ladies of the Parisian cabarets . He couldn't realize this because he had left money for it.

He studied at Charles Jourdan, Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent  and opened later his first store near the Place des Victoires, which quickly became very popular.

One of his most famous clients since first hour is Princess Caroline of Monaco, followed by Diane von Furstenberg and Catherine Deneuve. The final breakthrough came by the collaboration with Neiman Marcus.

His single biggest client is Danielle Steele, who is reputed to own over 6,000 pairs and is known to have purchased up 80 pairs at one time when shopping at one of his stores.

His clients include all the celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Kim Kardashian, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, etc, etc.

His trademark are the red soles, which are identifiable asLouboutins immediately - almost recognizable as his personal signature. Only the bridal shoe collection  has a more subtle blue sole.

Louboutin says he wanted to create something that broke rules and made women feel confident and empowered.

Well done, it has succeeded.

May we be touched by the magic of his shoes for the following years, break more rules, provocate and enjoy being a woman and lady.

And who knows, maybe we get a request by shoe and not with ring of our prince charming. ♥

Have a great time ,

Nadine  xoxo

Christian Louboutin macht (Mädchen-)träume wahr...

Christian Louboutin ... bei seinem Namen schlagen Frauenherzen höher und Augen leuchten heller.
Ging es uns nicht genau ähnlich als wir als kleines Mädchen Walt Disney's Märchen von Cinderella hörten und ihrem gläsernen Schuh ?  ohhhh jaaaa .... !


Wer wollte nicht auf die gute Fee treffen und wünschte sich Kleid, Schuhe und Kürbiskutsche? Bibbidi-Bobbidi , Bibbidi-
Bobbidi, Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo ♫ ♫
Cinderella war einfach wunderschön und welches Mädchen hofft(e) nicht auf den eigenen Märchen-Prinzen, der ihr den eigenen gläsernen Schuh zurückbringt? ♥



Die gute Fee mag sich äusserlich ein wenig verändert haben, aber dass, was sie uns bringt ist noch schöner, als das was wir uns in unseren kühnsten Träumen ausgemalt haben.


Sie heisst Christian Louboutin und hat für Walt Disney im Zuge des Re-Release von Cinderella auf DVD exclusiv den Cinderella Pumps designed.

Louboutin ist ein französischer Schuh- und Taschendesigner, der am 7 Januar 1963 in Paris geboren ist und dort im 12. Arrondissement gross wuchs. Er ist einziger Sohn der Familie und hat drei Schwestern.

Schon in sehr frühen  Teenage Jahren  faszinierten Louboutin hohe Absätze. Seine Passion entdeckte er das erste Mal bei einem Besuch im Musée des Art Océaniens durch ein Schild , welches einen durchgestrichenen Pfennigabsatz zeigte. Dieses sollte die weiblichen Besucher des Museums davon abhalten, das wertvolle Parkett mit ihren hohen Absätzen zu beschädigen. Der noch junge Louboutin war gefangen von der Schönheit der Form des Schuhs und begann diese immer und immer wieder nachzuzeichnen.

Am Anfang seiner Karriere versuchte Louboutin Schuhe an die Damen des Pariser Varietés zu verkaufen, was sich zunächst aus Geldmangel jedoch nicht verwirklichen liess.
Er begab sich dann in die Lehre bei Charles Jourdan, Chanel und Yves Saint Laurent, um dann sein erstes eigenes Geschäft in der Nähe des Place des Victoires zu eröffnen, welches sehr schnell, sehr bekannt wurde. Eine seiner berühmtesten Kundinnen seit erster Stunde ist Prinzessin Caroline von Monaco. Es folgten Designerin Diane von Fürstenberg und Catherine Deneuve. Der endgültige Durchbruch folgte, als Neiman Marcus seine Kollektionen fest in den Bestand aufnahm.

Danielle Steel ist als DIE Louboutin Kundin bekannt, welche in Besitz von über 6.000 Paar Louboutins sein soll und alleine in einem Einkauf über 80 Paar erworben haben soll.

Zu seinen Klienten gehören sämtliche Prominenz wie Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Kim Kardashian, Sarah Jessica Parker , Lady Gaga usw usw.

Zu seinem Markenzeichen gehören die roten Sohlen, an welchen Louboutins sofort zu erkennen sind - quasi als seine Signatur erkennbar. Die Brautschuh-Kollektion hingegen weist eine dezentere blaue Sohle auf.

Louboutin wollte laut eigener Worte etwas schaffen, welches Regeln brach und Frauen selbstbewusst und stark fühlen lassen kann.

Dies ist ihm gelungen.

Möge er uns auf viele weitere Jahre mit seinem Schuhwerk verzaubern, Regeln brechen lassen, provozieren und das Gefühl geniessen , Frau zu sein.

Und wer weiss, vielleicht bekommen wir einen Antrag per Schuh und nicht mit Ring von unserem Traumprinzen     ♥


Ich wünsche Euch einen wunderschönen Tag,

Eure Nadine xoxo
