My Sweet Valentine


This is one for the boys ;-)

I know, you guys aren't always big fans of Valentine's day but I must admit, it is one of my favorite Holidays. So I made a little wish list us girls love getting on this beautiful day. Enjoy!



I totally adore Aubade. It's a luxury French lingerie brand and it literally means "singing a serenade to your loved one (in the morning). This brand is the perfect embodiment of love!
Get this sexy little "boîte à désir" to surprise your lady (and to enjoy yourself off course;-) ).
There a few different contents of the boxes but I prefer the lace bodysuit you can see on the left!
Available at Lingerie Sensua Boortmeerbeek (www.lingeriesensua.be), My favorite shop ;-)







Jewels: Boys you can never do wrong with some bling bling!
I personally discovered this brand LeiVanKash only recently but I love love love the these unique pieces. My personal favorite? Yes, the rose Unicorn ring!
http://www.leivankash.com for more jewelry and prices.




My Oh My I want Chocolate Pie.... Or these Leonidas chocolate hearts will do just fine ;-)
The famous chocolate heart multiplied itself especially for Valentine's day so now you can enjoy a lemon hart, a raspberry heart,  a grapefruit heart and a a vanilla heart. Njom Njom, I like!







Lush is probably one of the fairest beauty brand on the market. All product are vegan and a lot of it is hand made at the shop so everything is fresh. I love when the make these limited editions during the Holidays and for Valentine's day. So pamper your girl, get the water running in the bath tub, put the Love Locket bath bomb in, throw some rose petals next to the bath, lights hundreds of candles, pour out the champagne and YES you make us very HAPPY ;-) 

You can find lush currently in Gent and Brussels (Antwerp shop opens again on 21st of February)

And last but not least FLOWERS.
FLOWERS are always a good idea. Personal tip: If she rides her bike to work every morning, decorate her bike with real (or fake) flowers. She will be smiling all day long!

HAPPY NAILS WORKSHOP by ELFI DE BRUYN

OH MY

It's been a while.
I've been kinda busy lately, work, fun, friends,... that kinda stuff!
But there was one thing I wanted to share with you. I went to this mazing "pimp-my-happy-nails-'till -they- are-even-happier" workshop hosted by the lovely Miss Elfi de Bruyn. I've known her for a while now and she is the perfect example of "dreams come true". In November she brought out this amazing nail art book called "Happy Nails" and she was in every newspaper, television program, online blog,... for the last few months. So I decided to take my not-so-handy-hands to one of her workshops at Wasbar Antwerp. And I had a blast! Not only did I get to discover 5 easy technics to pimp my nails I also met other girls eager to learn about nail art.

We got to discover following technics:

* Dotting: easy as 1,2,3,...
* Ombre: two colors blend into each other (Yes like the hair style)
* Galaxy: one of my favorite's! The galaxy and stars on your nails!
* Leopard: raaaaaauuuuuuuwww!!!
* Glitter: use a base color and make your own little glitter mixture for instant glam!

If you like to learn more about these technics, Elfi's Book HAPPY NAILS is still available online on www.lannoo.be/happynails or in your bookstore!

AND SOME GREAT NEWS, HAPPY NAILS 2 WILL BE COMING THIS FALL!!!!!!



One of the easiest technics, dotting! Even clumsy Mina can handle it ;-)


 






THE fabulous Miss Elfi De Bruyn!






FUN! FUN! FUN!
