GETTING CHILLY? 
The leather jacket seems to be one fussy free item that seems to keep us elegant and warm at the same time. Weather you are in an ice cold climate or a warmer one, "Leather, don't care" it's just not too heavy, nor too light!

THEY TOLD ME IT'S SPRING |so I had to

color, color, and color, This pink skirt is such a spring statement, I have been afraid to wear such bright colors for a while but I could not resist wearing this yummy pink almost fuchsia skirt. It is a high -low skirt I have got a couple months ago from Asos. It gives you that sexy look, but still classy touch.

HOW WOULD U DRESS UP THIS SPRING?


WHATCH THIS, AND IT MIGHT MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER :)
LATEST YT. STYLING VIDEO
Here is my latest youtube video above; some of you have liked this a lot, so I am willing to do another one for this spring, but really I have been addicted to basics and neutrals. My camies, T shirts and blazers have been my faves so far and I usually now wear black, white and grays...
I believe White would be perfect for this spring and summer...that does not mean I will be completely away from trying to get some pop of colors here and there, this is only one way to dress up this spring, and by far the easiest non fussy way to do so. I don't have to think about what I am going to wear the day before or search for an outfit for more than an hour in the morning ( not to mention all the mess that comes with it in the bedroom, closet, and bathroom ;)
Hope this helps and I may go into details in a  future videos (peel your eyes for it!

New Things from March and April (Vogue, Chanel,Tom Ford and Michael Kors)

The months of March and April have been full of hauls and it seems like May is going to be as well, ( My birthday is MAY 24th, for those who may want to know-- (wink)
My purchases have even been extended with my best friend's gifts that you can see in the following blog post. 
As for this blog post, I am showcasing recent buys from 
-Michael Kors ( Monochrome dress)
-My new Chanel espadrilles I got from Nordstrom
-My Vogue Magazine (April)
-and  My Tom Ford Illuminating base

This Michael Kors Monochrome dress, is more of an impulsive buy than anything. On one of these window shopping days, I have been literally forced to try on clothes by a Michael Kors employee. However I decided to get this dress because it was on sale and it just had the perfect fit. 
This dress is perfect for spring and I can't wait to style it. 


Another Impulsive buy, and I am not even guilty about it... But this is my second pair of Chanel espadrilles. I was looking for a new pair for a while and stumbled on them at Aventura Mall in Nordstrom. I could not believe it quite honestly and I had to save them to get them the following day... these however, are the newest style for the Chanel espadrilles, made out of swade leather, it's a unique color that goes tremendously well with jeans sooo...perfect for spring again!
These take a little while to break in, they then stretch and all of a sudden  become your most comfy flats. 


I've heard quite a lot about this Illuminating primer from Tom Ford, the reviews on the Nordstrom website pushed me to buy this product, as I have not been completely satisfied with my usual makeup primers. I needed to try something new. 
I cannot give out a review on this product as I have only used it once, and my makeup seemed to stay on for quite a while. 
I hope to have a lot more use of this product so that I can check for myself it it's worth its positive online reviews. 
As you can see, it's nothing scary, it's only a white creme that turns clear once massaged onto the skin...

WHAT IS YOUR STYLE? 
I am going to be honest with you all, and let you know that I am not a big fan of following every single fashion magazine, fashion bloggers, and Vloggers, as personal style may be influenced by all these extra factors. I like to stay inventive, risky and playful with my looks and I am not really a trend follower but for the past couple of years with Youtube, I have been really struggling with identifying what my personal style is, because I was so exposed to everybody else's.  I have understood with time that it's okay to get some inspiration and avoid "misinspiration". I believe I have now found myself and I can stay true to my style, that is the reason why I decided to purchase my first fashion magasine, which turned out to be one of the most controversial from Vogue. I am a gossip hater, so I won't get into the whole Kim, Kanye Situation, but I also stumbled on one of my jewelry wishlist item...A rolex watch...

My best friend's haul (BCBG and Montreal souvenir)

 It has been about 8 years that I had not seen my high school bestie...I was so happy to see her again and catch up on all the things we have been missing with each other. This is my sister Laetitia, and some of you may know her as "Titoune" as I call her. We have spent 6days of true life, full of joy, fight, and love...I have realized that only childhood friends are the real ones, that you are willing to have by your side unconditionally. We went to the Miami beaches and here we are in Sunny isles Beach.
Above is a quick Beach OOTD of Laetitia with her Zara Top, beach shorts and Michael Kors Sandals, this is the definition of effortless and non fussy style....
These are the Gifts I have received from Laetitia: some BCBG earrings, and Some gold BCBG sandals which I have been obsessed with for a couple of days now, although they are not the most comfy sandals, they mix and match with everything! which is why I love them...

























Above is also a Montreal cup she has given me as a souvenir, I love it and Will probably keep it forever :)

Enfin, un miracle...


Comme vous devez toutes le savoir, on ne peut effectuer un "bon maquillage" que sur une bonne base. Dans ce cas la "base" en question qui nous sert de canvas est bel et bien notre peau. Je suis totalement contre l'utilisation de mille et un produits de soin sur le visage, parce que je pense que dans ce cas précis "less is more". J'ai toujours pense que ma peau ne me pose pas d'énormes problèmes aujourd'hui pour la simple raison que je la laisse agir et réagir face a mon environnement, le climat, mes hormones, et ma vie en general. J'evite de l'attaquer avec des produits chimiques qui auraient pour but de me donner "une belle peau" et je me soucis de ne faire que le stricte minimum pour la guarder  radieuse. 
En effet, je n'utilise que mon savon gel douche "IVORY" a base d'Aloe Vera, ma crème hydratante de "Boscia" et mes masques "Boscia" et "Freeman".Ces produits sont tous botaniques et ou faits a base de produits 100% nature (thé, ananas,avocat,oat meal,etc...) et donc 0% chimiques, soit 0% de risque d'agression de la peau.
J'ai découvert les produits "Boscia" il y a trois ans lorsque je commençais a m'intéresser au monde de la beauté et du maquillage, et jusqu'ici je ne pense pas avoir été décue. J'ai commence par un kit en échantillons ( avec une crème hydratante, un savon gel pour le visage, un "tonner" et des lingettes matifiantes inclues) et je me suis rabattue sur leur ligne de masques afin de maintenir un maquillage parfait, sur une peau lisse, sans pores visibles.
le Green Tea Oil-Control Mask  que j'utilise est l'un de la gamme bosica , et les autres masques sont les suivants:  Bright White Mask ,Luminizing, et Black Mask Cool Blue Calming Mask.
Le green tea Oil permet donc de matifier le teint et éviter la production d'un excès de sébum que l'on soit maquiller ou pas. Etant donne que ce produit est un produit de soins de peau, il est indispensable de toujours utiliser une base matifiante de préférence avant d'appliquer son maquillage.
Il est 2h du matin, j'ai encore mon maquillage sur le visage, j'ai le visage qui certes brille parce que je me suis maquillee depuis 14h dans l'apres midi, mais a mon avis une petite retouche aurait fait l'affaire. Et cela n'aurait pas du tout été le cas sans ce masque. Ce masque est fait a base de thé japonais riche en antioxydants et silice  qui aborde l'huile et prévient la réflexion lumineuse. 
Il coute 34 dollars et se trouve chez Sephora, néanmoins il ne fait que 2.8oz , ce qui a mon avis n'est pas suffisant pour une utilisation a long terme. 
le lien du green tea oil control mask:
http://www.sephora.com/green-tea-oil-control-mask-P379853?skuId=1535731
L'utilisation de ce masque se fait comme pour tout autre masque du visage ( a appliquer en évitant le contour des yeux et la racine des cheveux et sourcils). Par contre la matière est remarquablement visqueuse et s'agrippe a la peau, et ce masque prend unpeu plus de temps a sécher ( pratiquement 30min) donc a mon avis, ce n'est pas un masque que je m'amuserai a appliquer le matin avant d'aller au bouleau ou a l'école, mais plutot un dimanche lorsque je suis tranquillement posee a la maison. Il a une odeur assez agréable et unpeu mentholée. 
après application on ressent un effet de picotement frais (agréable) qui donne l'impression que ce produit marche lol.

 et lorsqu'on le retire, en effet il marche! on le ressent tout de suite, la peau est beaucoup plus éclatante, le visage est frais et les pores liberes!
Le green tea oil control Mask est fait a base de concombre qui nettoie les pores, et cela explique cette sensation de fraicheur. Mais vu que c'est un masque matifiant, il assèche unpeu le visage, et la seconde étape est donc l'application de ma crème hydratante.

J'applique donc  ma "self défense vital antioxidant Moisture" qui hydrate mon visage de nouveau et me protege contre  le vieillissement prématuré de la peau et contre les rayons solaires toute la journée avec son SPF de 30 (Protection Spectrum UVA et UVB)

J'ai la peau mixte, et je peux donc me permettre de sauter l'étape d'une base avant d'appliquer mon maquillage, mais pour celles qui ont la peau grasse, l'efficacité  de ce masque nécessite son utilisation en association  avec celle d'une base matifiante avant d'appliquer son maquillage au quotidien. Et pour un teint beaucoup plus éclatant et naturel je n'ai utilise que des produits crèmes ( pas de poudres), et j'en parlerai en detail dans une prochaine video sur comment obtenir un teint éclatant et lumineux...c'est une technique qui est souvent utilisee pour les mannequins...
N'hesitez pas a me faire part de vos questions et préoccupations en rapport avec cet article ou pas...bisous les filles :)
