Top 5 Long-Lasting Lip Products for When You’re Wining and Dining
Wining and dining - we all love that! But there’s one thing that happens to be very problematic, particularly for ladies – the makeup. You spend hours getting ready and thirty minutes into a dinner, you realize that you have pretty much eaten away all your makeup or to be specific - any lip product you're wearing at that moment. You end up leaving traces of your lip product everywhere: the glass, the utensils, napkins… or in the worst case your teeth.
All Eyes on Grace Mitchell
Meet Grace Mitchell, your new obsession. She has been on so many “Artists To Watch” lists, but I have found out about her by clicking on a Facebook Ad for her “NoLo” video. When I saw it, I thought: “What is this? Looks fun!” But fun doesn't even begin to describe this young up-and-coming artist.
Winter Wonderland
Covered in blankets of snow, it’s hard to see anything wrong with the world when it’s so magical. I’ll be honest, I’m not a fan of winter, but it’s just so picture-perfect. “Winter” is usually accompanied by “wonderland” and it’s for a reason. What other season can be described as such? Winter has after all inspired so many writers and poets. It is such a cruel season, but oh, so stunning.
Take a Walk on the High Line
About two weeks ago, I have finally decided to take a walk on the High Line with my family. It took me five years (it’s going to be six in July) since I’ve been living here, to finally visit one of the must-see parks of Manhattan or an aerial greenway and rails-to-trails park, if you will. I know how awful that sounds and I know I have chosen possibly the worst season to see it, but I am slowly gaining a reputation for all of my awkward and poorly thought-out decisions (at least when it comes to family trips).
It’s Okay to Wear Florals in Winter
Hello my dear Stylegazers! I sincerely apologize for the silence. I decided to take a short break in order to survive the holidays, but I’m here now and back at it. I also wanted to say, HAPPY 2016! (Although, judging from what’s happening in the world right now, it’s not really going to be much different from any previous one, because – the humanity.) But anyways, let’s stay optimistic, shall we?
Top 5 Albums of 2015
As we're counting the days, hours and minutes till New Year's, let's take a moment and look back on the year that I consider to be a great one when it comes to music. Without further ado, here they are:
1.
Who: Zella Day
What: Kicker (Zella Day’s debut studio album)
Where: Pinetop Records, Hollywood Records
When: June 2, 2015
Why: “Sweet Ophelia” is the first song I heard by Zella and since then I’ve loved every single she released, therefore you might assume that I had some pretty high expectations when it comes to her debut studio album. I’m happy to say that I wasn’t disappointed. Kicker is every bit magical, trippy, seductive and dreamy as I hoped it would be. The guitars, string arrangements, electronic elements, stripped down ballads, impeccable lyricism – Kicker has it all. Zella Day’s style can be summed up in three words, “Spaghetti Western Pop.”
Christmas Outfit
Hello my dear Stylegazers! It’s a day before Christmas and the excitement is almost palpable. It has been raining for days here in New York and we won’t be getting any snow for Christmas, but that’s alright, because honestly, no one is noticing. The shoppers are scrambling to find last minute gifts and the wet streets are reflecting the yellow, red and green Christmas lights.
Velvet Hat
Hello my fellow Stylegazers! Yesterday was so lovely that I’ve decided to drive around a little to find a location to shoot. I went to a nearby village, because I’ve felt like I have run out of locations to choose in my own. It was a really cute, small village, with a very narrow main street and a bunch of neatly lined and very charming little stores. My idea was to take photos in the heart of the village; the main street that is, but the sun was setting and I got so distracted by the people, who were probably looking at me like I was a crazy photo-taking, sidewalk-blocking giant.
Maxi Dress
Hello my fellow Stylegazers! So, let me guess what you might be thinking right now: “What the hell?! A maxi dress in December?!” But please, hear me out… I have three reasons why you totally should:
“Whatever, I Am Getting French Fries”
Hello my dear Stylegazers! So, I got this “Whatever, I Am Getting French Fries” t-shirt a while ago and I really wanted to build an outfit around it. I just love the color, the cut and the groovy font. Also, the statement alone is pretty much something I would say, daily. I do constantly struggle with the question: “Should I get the French fries or not?” You know the struggle, right? You feel me? Just writing about French fries makes me hungry… But, moving on to the outfit.
