When you are young and keen to explore beyond your limits, all you need is the family support and the right inspiration. Having both of them is a perfect combo for a successful further career, even though you might abandon more than once your childhood dreams. But, at least, you will have the right reasons to do it, not only because no one helped you or because you were in the wrong place and time for finding the proper guidance.  How to be a Fashion designer by Lesley Ware offers the right ingredients for explaining a glamorous career to any teen - and practically anyone - considering a professional path in this field. Indeed, being a fashion designer and stylist - meaning someone knowledgeable enough to help you put your clothes and accessories together in an inspired way - means a lot of glamour, but it means even more hard work and permanent learning. Especially for the limited attention-span of teenagers, this book is beautifully illustrated with well placed advices in the pa...

Your hair says a lot about your health and your inner state of mind. It doesn't anything to do with magic, but with certain chemical interactions which can be read on the hair, especially when things are not getting well with your health. With a lot of work of any possible kinds on my shoulders, worries and a chemically died hair, I don't expect to have the same shining hair I used to a couple of years ago, but at least I am doing my best for taking care of it as often as possible.  Therefore, the use of various masks, shampoos and conditioners for fighting the dry hair look. However, nothing compares with the instant and long-term effects produced by Aussie 3 Minute , a product I discovered a couple of years ago, but which I am using at least once the week in the last weeks.

Aussie 3 Minute was the first pro...

When I don't "have anything at home" and need to cook dinner I tend to make this tomato-lentil-noodle soup. I still always have lentis, crushed tomatoes and coconut milk at home, and this one is ready in no-time. Double the batch of soup if you want this to be Tuesday-soup and Wednesday-stew aswell, it tastes just as good a couple of days later! I think I've posted some version of this before but that was so many years ago so here you go again - This soup takes: 1,5 dl red lentils A handful of rice noodles (or noodles of your choice) 1 can of crushed tomatoes 1/2 - 1 can of coconut milk Chopped garlic (All measurements are approximate. I never measure. Not sure if it's even possible to fuck this up, you can have it more creamy or more tomaty if you like, everything works) Cook everything together in the order above. Choose the amount of water yourself, depending on if you want your soup thicker or runnier.  Season the way you like - I always add garlic, preferrabl...

“The boy might become something one day, if he would simply cut his hair and follow me.” (Coco Chanel speaking about Yves Saint Laurent) This exhibition was very personal for me. When I first arrived in Paris years ago, I discovered the way I dressed myself throughout my teens and 20’s was unconsciously, inspired by Yves Saint Laurent. I wore copies of the Mondrian dress and accessorized it with go-go boots, made my own safari jacket to wear over straight legged trousers, loved my paisley printed skirts and boleros and was the first to rush out to buy a fur trimmed flared coat (inspired by the designer’s Ballet Russes collection). Within two years of arriving in Paris, I landed a job writing fashion for a magazine, where from time to time, I was sent to pick up press materials from the press attache of Yves Saint Laurent. Each time I attended a fashion show, or walked through the doors of this famous right-bank mansion, I felt overwhlmed with great reverence--as if I had entered a temp...
