Dare to be Bold: Dior Homme

(photos: style.com)
Looking at the Spring 2013 Dior Homme runway made me sense some very strict classic rules: It is mostly in light navy blue, a little bit of grey, black and tiny bits of red. It is very tailored, even the most casual pieces in it are super done and elegant. I loved it. AND I loved it 10x more when I saw the video Dior made for it, and not because of the clothes. It is very different, bold, and daring. Completely out of Dior Homme strict elegant rules yet very chic and emphasises the young rebellious Dior Homme man. Watch it here:

Sofia Coppola’s Miss Dior Cherie video – the extended version

Extending the dreamy vibe this weekend has given me, with a truly stormy weather outside and a very tranquil atmosphere inside, here is a great way to do it – films director Sofia Coppola’s extended video for the new Miss Dior Cherie campaign, starring Natalie Portman:

And, if I may add, I think Natalie Portman is gorgeous, yet I would love to see Sofia herself starring her own films, please.

Wedding!

Haha not mine, not yet :-) Last week I was so happy to attend my cousin’s wedding, it’s been a while since I’ve been to a wedding of someone close that I was really excited and happy for. I chose a black silk midi dress by Maya Negri, this is what it looked like on the hanger:

And I started getting ready with the basics – my favorite beauty products at the moment:

Caudalie Gentle cleanser, their perfect Beauty Elixir which I use instead of a toner, but not before a good scrub with Dermalogica Daily Exfoliator, that makes my skin soft and feeling, hmm, new, and finished with my all time favorite moisturizer, definitely the best one I ever had – Cream De La Mer. (click on the links for more info) -

After all that I got dressed and went on to the makeup stage, which, I have to admit it, is so much fun! I hardly ever spend more than 2 minutes a day on this, so I really tried to be patient this time and spend a little more, hoping for some nice results. I placed these products near the mirror:

Diorskin Forever foundation - great texture, super natural coverage;

Diorskin powder - I’ve been using this one for a while now. It’s the softest and makes my skin look silky;

Chanel blush - a favorite for sure. Super natural glow;

Givenchy Mascara -  I am in love with this one. It’s amazing: makes great separated eyelashes and the best part is that it’s easy to remove.

Mac Fluidline eyeliner – I got to test this product only recently and I’m in love. I’ve never been good with eyeliner, I used to think it’s so hard to use! But this one was just made for me. It comes in a small cute jar, and it’s super easy to use. With the tiniest brush I have,  I created the thinnest line you can imagine, super accurate and beautiful;

Mac Cream Colour Base – best highlighter I used so far. The texture is so soft and the result is so natural yet effective. I used it instead of eye shadows, it’s gorgeous;

And my favorite lipgloss line – Dior Addict lipgloss in red. It only looks super bold but I promise it’s not, it’s super slick and full of glow. Most importantly – it lasts on my lips for hours!

And my two latest Mac Cosmetics discoveries – the Fluidline and the highlighter -

 

Finishing up with Womanity perfume and body lotion by Thierry Mugler -

Makeup results are here!

 

Finishing with my traditional elevator pic from the way back and a picture of me and my favorite cousin, he took it with his iPhone at the wedding, it’s a funny one :-)

Who cares it’s a Dior Homme bag and I’m a girl?

I just want this bag. Very badly. And you know what? I actually think it’s quite feminine. Not that I care if it’s not :-)

It’s such a perfume for princesses, I always go back to it in the spring. It smells like the best you can make out of flowers. And it stays on for many hours, which is always important to me.
