Tartan & Denim

 I'm here today with my new favorite sweater ! It comes from the Soft Grey collection at La Redoute and is so warm ! I love its tartan knittings and leather detailings on the shoulders. I wore it with some acid washed denim pants from Primark and of course my Persun black bag (which I never put to rest). And I wore for the first time these great platform trainers that Autumn gave me. They are from NewLook and have the perfect basic burgundy color ! I just really love to pair burgundy and denim with black and whites :)

* DASH OF BEAUTY *


Dear Stradi Girls & Boys !

Ce post en français pour vous présenter une découverte beauté basée à Lausanne. On vous fait mousser... oui !

Depuis quelques mois maintenant, un nouveau salon de beauté à ouvert au centre de Lausanne, à la rue du Maupas 6 exactement. On a adoré l'ambiance girly baroque et surtout les filles qui vous y accueilleront avec plaisir, Vanessa et Nadia. Spécialisées dans l'épilation du corps et visage, de la manucure simple à la pose de gel ainsi que l'extension de faux cils, DASH OF BEAUTY nous propose forcément un make-up bar.

On aime particulièrement les petites crèmes pour les mains proposées au comptoir et la musique qui sonne dans les haut-parleurs qui nous donnent l'impression d'être en boîte de nuit un peu underground à Londres.

Pour prendre rendez-vous, rien de plus simple, par téléphone au 079 376 98 89.

On vous laisse découvrir en image ce joli salon de beauté :)

Beauty Talk #1

We've been loving three lip products recently :)
Chanel Rouge Allure #136 Mélodieuse is a really nice pink color with subtle tones of coral. It's no secrets that Chanel make-up products are awesome but this color hasn't the best formula (the color is pigmented but you have to re-apply through the hours). Anyway, the packaging is just the absolute bomb so we're really into it !
Lancôme L'Absolu Rouge #368 is an intense raspberry red/pink color, it stays on forever (for a deeply moisturizing lipstick!) and we really really like the magnetic packaging !
L'Oréal Infaillible Lipgloss #506 Red Infaillible is the best hybrid between a lipstick and a gloss. You first have to apply the colored lipgloss and then a coat of a non-colored sort of balm which will help set the color for the day ! To remove it, you gotta scrub because its staying power is just incredible.

We have been wearing the Garnier BB Cream Soin Miracle Perfecteur for a very long time and we just really love it. It has a very nice texture and a light coverage so it's great if you want a no-make-up make-up kind of day ;) The Biotherm Aquasource BB Cream is also amazing but a little more pricy. It has more pigments than the Garnier one, seems to stay a lot longer and has a flawless finish (because it's made of mineral pigments !). We are obsessed with the Biotherm skincare products, they feel so good on the skin !

Let's talk about the eyes now ! The Chanel Les 4 Ombres eyes palettes have been part of our life since a few years, and we really love this one which is #37 Variation, it's so blendable and the colors are to die for ! You can also use these shadows with a wet brush which will make the colors a lot more pigmented and bold. We've also been loving this Little Mix Love eyes palette from their collaboration with Collection. 6 (super duper nice) eyeshadows for 4£, we couldn't resist ! They are mainly shimmering colors and a matte black one, which makes it the perfect palette to do a natural smoky eye. The staying power is very very good for the price !

 We are obsessed with the Mavala's Minis nailpolishes. It's really a childhood memory because they are made in Switzerland and growing up, everyone had these nailpolishes :) We bought a few from their new color range and really loved #97 Wichita, it's a very very light pink (looking adorably pinky-white with two coats). #217 New-York is the perfect grey, as well as #152 Mauve Cendré, so many beautiful colors ! They all look very chic and polished and also look awesome with a matte top coat !
