With the warmer weather Starbucks brings the latest coffee innovation to the market: the Starbucks Cold Brew.
This is prepared by a unique brewing method with cold water and allowed to stand for about 20 hours. The result is a coffee that is particularly soft in taste and very refreshing. Cold Brew combines the best of roasting and high-quality beverage quality and is an expression of the passion for coffee of Starbucks baristas.
Cold Brewing is a blend of selected coffee beans from Latin America and Africa. For 20 hours, the coffee slow-steeps in cold water. This time-consuming process without the use of heat produces a characteristic sweet and soft coffee. Enjoy a delicious cup of Cold Brew Coffee that is balanced and smooth.
You can enjoy a cold coffee at Starbucks as Cold Brew, Iced Americano or Iced Caffè Latte.

The much awaited H&M Studio SS16 collection is here! Relased on Thursday the collection is all about taking every oppurtunity that comes whether you are looking for an adventure, exploring but while staying glamourous. The theme of the collection is a journey, as a way of life, from the city streets to travelling around the world to unknown places. The collection is a mix of functionality and a bohemian feminility.
I selected two pieces which for me are just perfect!
The striped knitted style cardigan in jersey yawn which can be worn in so many ways over mini dresses or skinny jeans it will be a staple in my Spring/ Summer wardrobe.
And what about the beautiful collarless blouse in mulberry silk which thanks to its natural dye has a real chic safari vibe about it. The perfect item for all my Summer's travels.
If you haven't already done so, go and check the collection out!
Last Saturday for once my hubby and I managed to go out for a date. Don't get me wrong not that we don't get to go out to events, parties etc but a night just for us doesn't happen very often. Therefore I thought a special night needs a dress! And what better than a romantic outfit for a romantic night in town with my hubby? The weather was nice enough not to have to wear a big coat and my overknees boots were the perfect match to my H&M flowery dress. Overknees boots are having a moment right now and I must say I do love them. You only have to be careful what you pair them with. I also suggest to go for a pair in suede rather than in shiny leather to avoid the "Pretty Woman" effect and rather flat than heeled. Pair them with flirty dresses and skinny jeans and you will be ready for Spring!
About our night we had a lovely time in town, walking along the lakeside and enjoying a great "aperitivo" in town.
Wish you all a great week end!

Lalique's new feminine fragrance is a dream. Oh has the fragrance's name tells you a whispered dream, a quest for the Absolute. Rêve d'Infini is an ode to women, endless source of inspiration for René Lalique.
The fragrance is placed under the sign of infinity, a symbol which has the shape of an "eight" which was already hinted at by the Art Nouveau scrolls of René Lalique's jewels. With Rêve d'Infini this symbol of eternal feminity is translated into a scent, Infinitely sensuos, Infinity radiant, Infinity Lalique.
If you were looking for a new and beautiful fragrance for Spring you have found it!The fragrance is a true dream, floral, feminine and sophisticated, I just love it!
With Spring I love to change my parfumes, am I the only one who has Winter fragrances and Spring/ Summer fragrances? Well, I think is like a new start, and every season has its own scents and fragrances.
In Winter I love warm and woody fragrances, in Summer something fresh and light while for Spring I love a beautiful floral scent.
It looks as if I have just found the perfect fragrance for Spring! Even the gorgeous bottle with its light pink colour is so delicate and chic just like the fragrance.
Rêve d'Infini is a true dream, floral, feminine and sophisticated.. Spring now I am ready for you!
Rêve d'Infini is sparkling, sensuos and colourful a fragrance, feminine with a bouquet of fresh flowers. Created by perfumer Richard Ibanez, who carefully selected a refined palette of delicate natural ingredients such as shimmering bergamot, rose-scented lychee and freesia whose fragrance blends the nectar of fruit with the headiness of jasmine which introduces the floral heart of Rêve d'Infini. At the heart of the fragrance feminity blooms with the elegant rose absolute, softened by satiny freshly picked peach and bolstered by forceful cedar wood. The silky dry-down of vanilla, musk and sandalwood guarantee to prolong the subtle harmony of accords which evokes the eternal cycle of life..
The bottle of Rêve d'Infini is truly spectacular and a true jewel, has an Art-deco feeling and boasts a sleek, elegant, modern design. Also the bottle seems an ode to female beauty, as its soft curves are adorned with a graduated satin finish that evokes both crystal and velvety softness of skin.. Lalique Rêve D'Infini is available as Edp 30 ml, Edp 50 ml and Edp 100 ml.
Last night I attended the preview of MAC Zac Posen in Geneva and let me tell you I truly enjoyed it! Not only I had chance to see the collection beforehand but also to have a make-up done. The lovely Maurane from the MAC team did a great job, I really love the smokey eye look she did using the Eye Z You Palette.
My favourite item of the collection with 6 gorgeous shades, from the effervescent champagne of Phloof to the deep frost grey of Beyond Gorgeous and pearly soft lilac of Performance of Art these highly pigmented shades really suits everyone.
Of course the collection is fantastic and it also include three gorgeous lipsticks: Darling Clementine a bright orange and Dangerously Red will be perfect if you are looking for a bold and daring look. On me Maurane opted for Sheer Madness a sheer nude lipstick which was just the right choice for my look!
On the cheeks she used the Haute Couture blush applied with the Zac Posen Large Angle Counture Blush and a touch of Zoomblack Mascara on the eyes finished off the look!
