Happy Monday world! I am too excited to share with you my vintage story. My husband took the pictures while we were in Bulgaria (my homeland). I can definitely tell that this place is my favorite place in the whole world. The forest is located near my grandmother’s village in the beautiful “Old mountain”.

The idea was to create a beautiful fairy tale in pictures. We managed to make this cute and lovely tyre swing right in the center of the woods. I had the idea in my head – I wanted to be different and unique. With a little help from my grandmother’s wardrobe – we found the perfect outfit for the session – a vintage dress with original hand- made lace.

I hope you like the images and the whole idea. Have a fantastic week my friends!

Love,

Mary

Favorite FW15 Models

With this post I would like to share with you my admiration to three beautiful models who literally are rocking the runways during this year’s Fashion Weeks. I am talking about Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kross and Kendall Jenner. These young girls are definitely a whole new wave of inspiration. They are bringing charm, beauty and fineness. So let’s started.

Here are some pictures from Michael Kors Show Fall-Winter 2015 during the NYFW 2015

 Here are some makeup tips and suggestions about the holiday look. As you can see from the pictures above I am applying a MAC red lipstick. A holiday look is not a holiday look without bright red lips. I am a huge fan of Retro Matte Lipstick/Rouge A Levres recently. This is my holy-grail holiday red so far.

To achieve this look I used the Lancome Color Design eyeshadows. It has 4 gorgeous tones. I applied the Burnt Sand (Shimmer) shade to my lid and then I used the Faux Pas (Matte) tone and applied it to my crease.

To finish up my classic holiday inspired look, I curled my hair with my favorite Remington S3500 Straightener.  My all the time favorite Christmas combination colors are red, black and gold. About the accessories –  I chose these jewelry in golden shade – rings from H&M  and these beautiful earrings from I amLast but not least, I put on a black top in combination with a red-black knee-length skirt.
