MAC HUGGABLE LIPS

Gorgeous lips without compromising shine for colour? Now we can have it all with MAC Huggable Lips formula, which hugs ours lips in beautiful hues that stay bright for up to six hours!
Comprising of 15 Lipcolours and  12 Limited Edition Glass the Huggable Lips collection is here to really give our lips a real treat as well as delivering gorgeous colours and shine!















 HUGGABLE LIP COLOUR

This gel-like lipstick has a rich, glossy shine and a feather-like finish which lasts up to six hours.
The velvety-like formula really feels as it is hugging our lips. It  feels great on the lips, keeping them soft and moisturizes. It leaves a beautiful shine and doesn't feel sticky at all. In fact I would say this is the perfect lipstick for anyone who hates wearing your typical sticky, lip gloss, as MAC Huggable Lip Colour delivers just the right amount of shine without leaving a sticky residue.
More to love is the fact that is available in a great selection of versatile shades so you are sure to find one to match your skin tone. I immediately fell for Glamorised..as I am a lover of hot pink lipsticks but I must say Rich Marron has now taken my favourite spot while and Feeling Amourous? Out for Passion and Love Beam are great grab and go shades for everyday wear.
I am a fan!

HUGGABLE GLASS

This is really a comfortable, creamy lipgloss which delivers immediate shine and lasts for hours. The dual phase formula glides on effortlessy for a smoothing, creamy colour. 
I am really loving these as they give a great coverage of colour and feel so good on the lips. I am a huge fan of lip glass as they are so easy to use and look great on the lips. Since my early teens I don't think that I have ever been without a lip gloss in my make up bag and these MAC Huggable Glass have quickly become a must have!

My New Year's Eve outfits ideas for every budget

New Year's Eve is only 2 nights away so if you are still unsure about what to wear I did some hard work for you.. looking for the best dresses on the net. 
I think I did pretty  good as most of them are even on sale! There is something from every budget from H&M and Zara to Valentino. 
For me  New Year's Eve is all about having fun, celebrating.. of course all while looking absolutely fab!
My rule: I would keep it classic colourwise: black, gold or red. 
Long or short? Well, that is very much a matter of taste and occasion. For a smart due of course opt for a long dress, preferably in black and for more informal occasion such as a house party feel free to show some legs in some sexy short numbers!
What have you got planned for New Year's Eve? Enjoy your night and have fun!!

Happy New year!!

A very MK Christmas..

As you may know if you are following me on Instagram, my Christmas was a very Michael Kors Christmas!
I received quite a few gifts as well as my beautiful watches which I got before the Holidays my MK Christmas went on with a perfume, charms, jewelry and two gorgeous bags! 
Honestly I couldn't ask for more, I love them all! I am really loving silver lately and my new AVA bag is certainly the perfect bag to bring some sparkle during this Holiday Season, and more it goes so well with my new MK bangle also in shining silver.
Last time I was in Zurich I called at the Michael Kors flagship store and I got myself the pom pom charm in grey and silver, hoping Santa was going to bring me the silver AVA bag to go with...
Well, I must have been good this year as I have got that and more lovely gifts. So happy really!
I can't wait to show you more of my Michael Kors gifts in my next posts, so stay tuned!
This is the outfit I picked for the first outing of my new AVA, all in the grey and black tones and I really think this bag brings some sparkle to even the darkest look. I was also wearing my new Michael Kors silver bangle and watch that with their shimmering effects will definetely not go unnotice.
I am loving them!

Giovanni Soldini and the MASERATI TEAM finish fourth in 71ST ROLEX SYDNEY HOBART YACHT RACE

At 13.00 Sidney time on December, 26th the VOR 70 Maserati, her 13-strong crew and skipper Giovanni Soldini started what is one of the greatest, most gruelling and historic international yacht races: the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.
 The 110 boats from different nations in the fleet then went to do battle on a particularly challenging and insidious 628-nautical mile between Sidney and Hobart.
Soldini and Maserati had been training in Australia for several months venturing forth everyday into the fearsome waters of South Pacific.
And at exactly 11:54:33 local time Maserati became the fourth craft to cross the finishing line in the 71st
Edition of the Rolex Sidney-Hobart Yacht Race.
The Italian VOR 70 covered the 628-mile distance between Australia and Tasmania in 2 days, 22 hours, 54 minutes, 33 seconds.
Line honours went to the American 100' Comanche, followed by the Australian yacht Ragamuffin and American craft Rambler.












Adidas Originals goes Baroque!

The Holidays are slowly passing, after the pre Christmas stress and hectic days now I am also enjoying some time off. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and now I am very much looking forward to New Year's Eve.
It is quite a big news that there is no snow here in Switzerland at the moment and the weather has also been quite mild. I really enjoyed wearing casual / sporty clothing for lounging at home and going for long relaxing walks.
Just before the Holidays I have received this wonderful bomber jacket from Adidas Originals and I have been really loving it!
It is part of the Adidas Originals Baroque range, in a satiny material covered in print inspired by baroque jacquard patterns which were really popular in the '70s. Adidas has really managed to give a luxurious new look to a sporty bomber jacket!
If you love the print as much as I do available are also leggins, hoodie, track jacket and more!

Wish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
