Sandra‘s Closet

Who knew what a new hue can do?! I love this shade of blue so much and was so happy to see that Stella McCartney used this colour again for her S/S 2013 collection along with orange and green. Stay tuned for the upcoming post.

My look that I wore to Stella’s show last week in Paris: Tuxedo jacket, Joan silk crepe-de-chine and lace dress, printed modal and silk-blend scarf, all by Stella McCartney, Swarovski crystal necklace by Lanvin, Audrey wayfarer sunglasses by Céline, Muse Two bag by Yves Saint Laurent and suede and snake effect leather ankle boots by Miu Miu.

Here is your preview of Lancôme’s Christmas 2012 makeup collection Happy Holidays which is all about the festive shades of gold, and red mixed with sparkling sequins!
The collection is inspired by Paris, the City of Lights, where, according to Lancôme, “illuminations resonate with enchanting shimmer”, clearly a suitable inspiration for a Christmas Collection.
