A REVIEW

ROUGE COCO

N0.5 Mademoiselle

Rouge Coco is, by our modest opinion, the best Chanel product launched in years. It is very silky, long lasting and it comes in a great number of shades, with a natural sub-tone. Our favorite is the shade called Mademoiselle, which you can actually see on Vanessa Paradis here, who is a spoke person for Chanel. This shade reminds us of her early days in music industry, perhaps the Be my baby time and it goes very well with pale faces and 90 s like make up.

Kind of like this

Style crush

When it comes to Japanese fashion it's anything but boring. Street fashion is going wild with crazy, but oddly great looking, combinations of designers' and Japanese brands, vintage clothes, over the top accessories, and platform shoes. While going through Harajuku street snaps, we instantly noticed one person whose eccentricity and, let's be honest, gorgeous face, made us wonder in awe- who is that?

Ikeda Hirari, one of the most recognizable faces of Tokyo street fashion. What we like about her, among other things, is her ability to transform, while still staying true to herself. Colorful hair, pixie cut, undercut, colorful eyebrows, or no eyebrows, whatever she does, she stuns. Maybe we should just let the pictures talk for themselves.

Beauty icons of the past

Isabella Rossellini

In the fashion industry, a "slightly" misogynistic one, some decades before appeared a woman with strong feminist believes, setting up a model of living worth of admiration. She is mostly known as a spokesperson for Lancome, a cosmetic house, which fired her, basically for getting older, after what she raised her voice about the treatment of women in this in so many ways cruel industry. She, a daughter of yet another icon, Ingrid Bergman, is surely a woman of exceptional beauty, with uncommon face features and classic posture and style, and that is why she earned a place in our modest blog. But, she took our hearts with activism and smart remarks about the world surrounding her. Make sure to check her documentary "Green Porno" ;) It's not what you think.

Be inspired- flower power

Flowers in the hair not only make a exceptional accessory, especially for some particular events in life, such as wedding (don't mind us wearing them a bit more often) but also have a strong cultural aspect. For example, in some areas of the world, such as Polynesia, it may hold an information about your love life (a flower behind the right ear - looking for a lover). In any way, it makes you look ethereal and somewhat fairy-like.
Some people's visual identity is partially or solely based on using these mother nature's gifts, as we can see in the cases Frida Kahlo or Carmen Miranda. It can not be a coincidence that these two great women were also great artists, unique, different from the rest in their expression.
Today, so it seems, flower power is mostly seen in fashion editorials and runway, and not as a part of every day style, perhaps because it is always easier to be a part of the crowd than to stand out, thus more uniformed trends now prevail. But, guess what, hippy way of looking at life still survives this world full of conformists.
Notion: because of the longevity, many choose to go with no-natural hairpieces, but if you decide to go for the real one, be informed about the symbolism of it. for example, Dahlia flower can symbolize a warning or wildness, while Camellia is a sign of deep longing for your beloved.
