Marie Claire Spain - Olivia Palermo!

I know this is going against everything I want to be (not the typical consumer who may fall for the pressures to fall in love with the faces and personas of some models/celebs) but my God what an editorial!!! The make-up is superb and so is the styling (may have not repeated the camera holding), the hair, and lets not forget the cheekbones. Perfect spring colors and inspiration. Favorite shot: Number 2.

Lebanese Parcel of Love

My siblings and mother recently came back from a short trip to Lebanon and this was my gift ( I do love them so):

Silver earrings encased in ribbon and plastic which was a lovely change from the regular earring cases.

This light beautiful hand painted scarf.

A handmade cow made from crochet, to hang on a door with a real bell!

A hilarious joke of a book my sisters got me, what a difference time has had on society.

Handmade soap with a strong pungent smell of pure clean. Sigh.

Another handmade product: A Lampshade which I have yet to put on display. Absolutely love it tho!

And these beautiful thin rings, one of the evil eye and the other of a butterfly, gorgeous.

Pretty is the word.

One of Norway's Hanneli Mustaparta's gorgeous casual outfits. The colors are so spring, and lets not forget her amazing cheekbones!

Crazy amazing accesory! An invisible clutch by Margeila with a white rose placed inside. So Dior and romantic. Problem is trying to fit in keys, a phone or two and lipstick! Oorrr we could just hold on to that stuff in the other hand. First world pain people.
