Dreamflight

Dear readers,

I named this topic 'Dreamflight' because it was like being in a dream when I saw the Fall collection of Dior designed by their new designer Bill Gaytten. He has used all the colours of the rainbow, different types of fabric and different styles for his collection. Take a look at the pictures below to see how part of the collection looks like!








What do you think about this collection? Not everything is my style, but I definitely love some of the dresses!

Love, Melissa

Macademia Natural Oil

                    

Dear readers,

Do you want your hear to be healthier and look shinier? Look no further: try the hair care line from 'Macademia Natural Oil'! All their products are sulfate- and paraben-free and as the name already reveals, it is made out of the oils of macademia nuts...YAMMIE!!! The combination of the oils of macademia nuts and argan seeds provides an oil which is quite similar to our bodies own natural oils. The high concentration of unsaturated fatty acids of these oils do real wonders for your hair! Trust me, after trying this line, you will go nuts for them too! :)

And look how beautiful the line looks:

Sequins!

Dear readers,

Which girl doesn't like a bit of glitter? I know I do! Sequins got hot some time ago now, but I, and many with me, still enjoy them! Can you blame me? They instantly lift an outfit to something a bit more out there and we may all be a bit more out there! Nothing wrong with that! :)
I've picked some of my favourites for you to see! Please, let me know what you think of sequins and leave a comment telling which of the ones hereunder is your favourite!

Love, Melissa

Jessica Simpson!

Dear readers,

I did not really know Jessica Simpson when she was only making music, but when she started to appear on her real life serie "The Newlyweds" I began to know more about her and I liked the things I saw from her. She has turned out to be a beautiful woman with a good heart and a great sense of humour...well, at least that's my opinion! Did you see her on MTV's "The price of beauty"? She did such a good job promoting the true beauty of women and why we should accept ourselves just as God made us!
Aside from that, Jessica Simpson also has a clothing line which is estimated with a value of some billion dollars! I will say this again: a BILLION dollars!!! WOW!!! Knowing that, you can only expect her to be walking around fashionably and I think she does just that!
Let's have a look at some of her day-to-day outfits!







What do you think of Jessica's style? And what do you think of her clothing collection? I love them both! I especially love the look of her in the fourth picture, with the red blazer! The colour red looks so beautiful on her, don't you think?

Love, Melissa

Questions for everyday!

Dear readers,

Ask yourself the following questions:

If today was it, would you die knowing you did your best?

If tomorrow never came, would you be proud of the last thing you said to each person you love?

If "someday" was only "now", would you do everything you've always put off?

If you knew you had a choice about what kind of life you could be living, would you choose different?

If you knew failure is impossible, what would you do?

If it were true that everyone you meet is you in another body, how would you treat them?

If love was the true currency of the Uni-verse and the more you gave away the more you received, how would you spend it?

If fear were the biggest illusion and the greatest lie of all time, how would you choose to live your life?

If the Uni-verse always supported a life lived towards achieving dreams, how big would you dream?

What would be your answer? Is there something you would change in your life? Would you not hold back from taking action any longer?

Love, Melissa

           

It's time for SANGRIA!

Dear readers,

The temperatures are getting higher and there's nothing more refreshing as a nice cup of sangria when you're in the mood for something stronger than ice tea! So for today I included this great modern recipe of sangria. Give it a shot and let me know if it tasted good or good! :)

Serves 8

Ingredients:

6 cups assorted fruits (such as mango, pineapple, cantaloupe, and apricot), sliced or cut into chunks
1/4 cup thinly sliced peeled fresh ginger
1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh basil or mint leaves
1/2 cup orange liqueur, such as Cointreau
1 bottle crisp white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
Ice

Directions:

1.In a large bowl or pitcher, combine fruit, ginger, basil or mint, and orange liqueur. Mash gently with the back of a wooden spoon until basil is bruised and fruit releases juices. Add wine and lemon juice and stir to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour (or up to 1 day). To serve, fill eight glasses with ice and top with sangria.
