I love Kate when she has short/mid length hair and was thinking cutting my hair like hers on the 6th picture. What do you guys think?

Missoni



I came across these beautiful pictures of Drew Barrymore modeling for Missoni 2006. She is just perfect here!!

CW-X



It's getting less cold and the days are longer now so my husband and I decided to start running outside instead of hitting the gym (and run on a running machine). These tights are meant for cold weather and support your muscles (specialy around the knees and calf). I think they look cool and are very comfortable to wear.

Chanel








Finally I bought a lipstick, glossimer and lip pencil in deep red.
(I received the eye shadow as a present from a girl-friend as thought about beginning/completing my little collection..;))
I wear either all together (when I don't feel too shy) or just the glossimer or lipstick. It's such a pretty color!

sissi rossi



I was shopping at Co-op Barneys on Saturday and fall in love with this bag. The leather is very soft and all the shapes are so original.

Oscars of course

Here are my favorite dresses/make up from yestereday night's Oscars. There weren't many suprises but it was still nice to watch :D

Maurizio...







I'm just reading "press PLAY contemporary artists in conversation" and thought about sharing one of two images form Maurizio Cattelan's art...

Exhibition "Body of Fashion" in Paris




Inspired by the study of the new French measurments, the exhibition "Body of Fashion" looks at all the curiosities. In collaboration with the fashion historian Catherine Ormen, the body and its evolution in fashion are examines from the middle of the 19th Century to present times.

It is a veritable study of ten historic archetypes of the female body from 1855-2000, illustrated by the Siegel & Stockman archives.

Super soft hair



As I mentioned earlier I dye my hair quite often and therefor need also to take really good care of it. For me the best hair masque I found on the market is the "Redken all soft heavy cream". It really made my hair smooth. At first I did as mentioned on the description (leave on 5 up to 15minutes) but it wasn't enough for me and as I had time to spend I left it on for 1 hour. My hair was really really good afterwards! I never had this kind of result with any other product :D

BFF



Get ready for the next BFF (BrusselsFashionFairs) From July 23-24 2006. Over 100 designers from all around Europe will expose.
Some of my favorite are InWear from Denmark and Maria Westerlind from Sweden.

The address for the Fair is Chée d'Alsemberg 999, 1180 Brussels. And here is the link: www.bff.be


Maria Westerlind. I love the green belt.

Oh hair my hair



I dye my hair, since I am 18. I used to have it naturally light blonde but as I got older my hair tended to get a little darker. I went form blonde platinum to black and red several times. I always had short hair which was better for their condition but since a year or so I try to grow it out (slowly but surely) and don't want to damage any longer my hair. I used different "at home" haircolor and the best I could say now is Clairol Essence and Naturtint (which is one of the safest hair coloration on the market). I have now auburn hair and really like it ;-D

new blog, new person...

Hello everyone,

my name is Gabby and was born in Switzerland. I live now in NYC with my husband.

I am interested in fashion, photography, design, health, music, movies, and much more...

The goal of this blog is to give out as many tips I have. I am sure that I am not the only one wondering for the good places to shop in NYC or good hair masques (and not too expensive) or easy and yummy recipes. I wish this blog will soon be a place where everyone will share ideas and experience.

Thank you and have a good day! Gabby :)
