PEARLS


Hello everybody

This week, I want to talk about a little thing I really really love, in fact is part of my personality: PEARL EARRING. Yes, I love them and I´m not a granny. I think pearls are absolutely classy and elegant. I use them with all kinds of outfits. Actually, I never change my earrings, I think they go with everything. I use them every day even If a go to a party or the beach. They are already part of my life. 



I know it´s not just my obsession, there are stylish and elegant women who wear pearls all the time, Jacky Kennedy for instance used them as earrings and necklaces. I remember I used my first pearl necklace when I was fifteen.




          
Pearls are not only a matter or style; you can also find them in art. One the most famous pearl earring appearances in art’s history is Johannes Vermeer's masterpiece the “Girl with a Pearl Earring” 




Tracy Chevalier wrote a historical novel, fictionalizing the circumstances of the painting's creation. The novel inspired a film (2003) where star Scarlett Johansson plays as the girl with the pearl earring



                      

Majorica is one of the best known brands of organic pearls jewelry, you can find them at most  Macys stores. 


                                           
Tous has also nice pieces. I personally own earrings and a beautiful ring from these jewelers.




 As you can see, pearls are an important part of fashion, art and also movies  history. My advice? run and buy a good pair of pearl earrings!, they will be a  perfect solution for any outfit.

HELLO NEW BLOG

Hi everybody,

I'm Nancy, and probably you already know me from my other blog; El vuelo de la mariposa. I'm here with a new exciting project. This new blog is about things us women love. It`s not a fashion blog, (if you want to check a good and stylish fashion blog check my sister in law´s MFAblog) of course you can find here shoes, bags and clothes, you know I love it, but also you`ll  read about makeup, food, books and every little and not so little things I find useful, pretty or lovely. So please follow me in my new adventure, I hope you like it.

The first little thing I love and want to share with you  is the EVEN BETTER EYES from Clinique. It`s a  fantastic dark circle corrector.

When you are getting older, one of the most annoying things are the dark circles around your eyes. In my case I really hated it, that´s why I decided to find a product to correct that, and I found it!!!.The thing I like  the most about this corrector is the texture because it melts in your skin and is zero greasy, I Absolutely Love It.

Give it a  try it and I am convinced you`ll love it.
