Chloé

2010-11-24T05:39:00.000-08:00

You know i'm obsessed with Kiehl's, i'm using only and only their products. But when it comes to perfumes i have another obsession. And this is Chloé. I loved their first scent. And not only me, a lot of people because i can smell it every day on the street, in the metro, everywhere.

Chloé

And their new Love scent.... I remember this year's Fashion Celebration Night in Paris. Mimo came towards me on avenue Montaigne and i could smell it. But what is it? What can smell so good on her? Well, it was the new Chloé Love scent. I decided then that it will be my next perfume.

Yesterday Mimo got an invitation to Les vendanges on avenue Montaigne at Chloé. The whole boutique smelled like Love (and afterwards me as well) and literally love because i fell in love with Love again. So my first thing on my christmas list: Chloé Love.

ToyWatch mania

2010-10-10T10:30:00.000-07:00

Last weekend i met my new love, ToyWatch. You know that feeling that love at first sight. Last sunday i had the chance to visit the first ToyWatch shop in Paris, on rue Saint-Honoré. ToyWatch is an italian based brand which was established in 2005. Since then it's a success story. Today many famous people are obsessed with it like Michelle Obama, Sandra Bullock, Sophia Bush, Naomi Campbell, Madonna... And me (:

The new Fluo Pearly Collection

It’s easy to fall for the Fluo Pearly collection, Toywatch’s latest creation for the autumn/winter

2010-2011 collection: Chrono and Solo Tempo proposed in a wide pastel color palette,

selectable depending on the occasion and – why not?- one’s mood.

Design, linear shapes, use of “alternative” materials and, above all, a great deal of creativeness:

these are the ingredients of that magic formula that makes a Toywatch timepiece a must-have

object of desire.

Mine (:

The concept of the flagship store in rue Saint Honoré is characterized by a minimal but

sophisticated style, perfectly integrated in the stylish building, with its typically Parisian

architecture. This new store features the all black concept, the same characterizing the 25

monobrand stores - including 10 flagship stores – of the most glamorous watch brand of the

moment.

Thierry, Ben and Jerry

Summer has finally arrived. We can't say with warm weather but there are better days. For those sunny, hot days i recommend sunglasses and ice cream. Recently i discovered a french brand called Thierry Lasry. French, handmade sunglasses. BASED ON THE CONCEPT OF "FUTURISTIC VINTAGE", THE THIERRY LASRY SUNGLASS COLLECTION IS INSPIRED BY VINTAGE DESIGNS AND REMIXED WITH A AVANT-GARDE ROCK AND ELECTRONIC TOUCH.

My Thierry Lasry Analogy sunglasses

They are pricy sunglasses but i can recommend YOOX where you can find previous collections for a very nice price. I bought my Analogy there, too. Btw i love it that Thierry Lasry named his sunglasses being inspired by his name, all names end with a "y".

Here is Analogy in another colour in Teen Vogue

Ben&Jerry's, my favourite ice cream in my favourite flavour, Strawberry and Cheesecake

Harlow Winter Kate

2010-05-05T07:08:00.000-07:00

This week i show you my new jewelries from Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 and my new piece of her Winter Kate line. I'm in love with the boho chic this season and with Nicole Richie's style.

This week my life is about my hands. I'm in love with my new nail polish, the 505 Chanel Particuliere. For a beautiful manicure you need beautiful rings. A couple of weeks ago my dear friend Mimo introduced me a traditional irish ring, the Claddagh ring. The Claddagh ring symbolises love, friendship and loyalty. If you want to know more about it, click here.
Last week i saw the film, Leap year and i was so happy when Matthew Goode proposed to Amy Adams with a Claddagh ring! I was just smiling and showing my ring on my finger to the screen (:

Stylish water

2010-03-31T07:46:00.000-07:00

For me being green is very important. For a couple of month i found the perfect solution for carrying water with me. It was very hard because the bottle had to be stylish, not too little, not too big and of course easy to carry.

This week's favourite item is definitely the KOR One bottles. I have mine in orchid pink for months now and i just love it! I can't imagine a day without it. And it is sure that you won't stay invisible with it because of it's design, everybody will ask you where can they buy this bottle of water.

With this colour you support the Golbal Water Crisis. The KOR One is available also in ice blue, sawgrass green and sunrise orange. For more information and to order it see: http://www.korwater.com/

Happy drinking!

"Kiehl's heaven"

2010-03-24T05:55:00.000-07:00

I have a huge obsession for beauty products. When i was a child i was always admiring my grandmother how she took care of herself. I've tried a lot of brands during the years. In 2006 Nancy Meyers' film The Holiday came out in the cinemas. I didn't know that time how much this film and the fact that Cameron Diaz is using Kiehl's products in it, will influence my life. Well, actually my beauty life.

I am using only Kiehl's for my body, face and hair. Everytime when i go Kiehl's shopping everything is in order in life, i leave all of my problems behind, i'm just in "Kiehl's heaven".

At the moment my favourite Kiehl's are:

Baby Gentle Cleansing Milk, it's not only for babies

Imperial Body Balm, you're falling in love with the scent

Acai Damage-Correcting Moisturizer, 100% Natural Origin

Exams

2009-11-05T01:07:00.000-08:00

It's a very busy week with all the exams. I already passed 4, there's only 1 left. On tuesday we made a presentation with Mimo on Alice in Wonderland for mouvements culturelles contemporaines. Mimo made this cover for our powerpoint diaporama:

Mimo and me as Tweedledee and Tweedledum

The exams are going well. Meantime i'm organizing more photoshoots. This weekend i'm doing a still life in Paris with Vica. She's a photography student at the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest, at the moment she's in Paris with the program Erasmus. We did already a photoshoot together with her: www.szokoli.com. And next week i'm going home for another photoshoot. I'm so excited, i'm working on the theme for a month. I'm going to work together with a great photographer. And the model... Well, it'll be a surprise, you'll see...

Jewels of the day

2009-10-28T10:46:00.000-07:00

Yesterday i finally got my first ever sweater clip. When i first saw Glee, i fell in love with the music. I don't like so much the characters, the story, so i guess i only watch it for the music. But if you watch a tv show you have to have a favourite character. Mine is Emma Pillsbury alias Jayma Mays. I love her style in Glee. In one episode she wore this amazing, beautiful, vintage sweater clip which i adored so much that i started to looking up what's the name of that piece of jewelry, because i didn't know it. Thanks for Google i found out that it called a sweater clip. Then i headed immediately to Etsy and found my sweater clip on Cindy Sparaco's etsy site. Thank you Cindy for my gift too!

Back to life

2009-10-26T13:50:00.000-07:00

I know i was away quite long, but i had 2 hard weeks. I didn't feel inspired, the work went slowly. I was watching films and tv shows, nothing special... But saturday evening it has changed. My beloved friend, Gabi came to Paris for the weekend and we spent a gorgeous saturday evening together! We started at the Eiffel-tower, had great dinner at Le Café Malakoff at Trocadéro then went for a big walk. Thank you my darling, you digged me out of that hole!

Autumn in Paris

2009-10-11T10:34:00.000-07:00

Today after we went to the market with Mireille and had great lunch together i went to Jardin de Luxembourg. It is my favourite place in Paris. I just realized today how beautiful autumn we have this year. There were so many people: walking, playing tennis, having some coffee, reading their newspapers, riding ponies... It was a wonderful afternoon. See it:

I hope everybody knows Etsy where you can buy only handmade things. It's there where my dear friend Mimo found me this perfect photographer, Yvette Inufio. She's american and she was so touched that i ordered from her that she sent me her 2 favourite photos as her gift to me. This is how they look in my room:

Breakfast in America

2009-10-09T04:51:00.000-07:00

Yesterday we had a great time with my dear friend Dóri. We went to Breakfast in America in Le Marais. It was a dream come true to me. All summer long i made a lot of american pancakes with maple syrup but i couldn't find any blueberries in Kecskemét. But yesterday i had my all first american pancake with blueberries and with maple syrup. Actually i had 3... And i drank home-made ice tea with in plastic glass like we were in New York. See it:

Well, it seems it has restarted. Stress, no sleeping because of new ideas and a lot of work. My third and last year has just started. I can't say that i didn't do anything during the summer, i was pretty occupied with my portfolio and my website, but still it is different. Summer's passed, i'm back to Paris, it is autumn already, it's raining every day since i got back. But i'm curious what this year is holding for me...

A couple of weeks ago i've had the honour to meet Lindsey, the co-founder of The Laundress at the Maison&Objet fair in Paris. I use only The Laundress products to do my laundry. My new favourite from them is their clothespins. They are like my grandmother's.

Hi there!

Well, this was my first blog ever:

I started it last year. It was in hungarian, my native language, but i realized i have many friends outside of the hungarian borders so i want to let them know too, what's happening with me. So here it is, my brand new blog in english. But i have to warn you, my english isn't perfect, i will do a lot of mistakes in my writing. Please forgive me... (:
