Chanel addicted.

When I came home from Torino about 1 hour ago, I was overjoyed to see that there was a mysterious thick letter in the mail from Chanel addressed to me :D

As soon as I got through the door of my home I opened the letter with my mom and my brother both anxious to see what it was (how cute are they?!) I found a letter and a really cool catalogue that is full of amazing pieces of maison Chanel.

I cannot wait to go visit their store to try on some new items and hopefully buy something too! :)

I would like to thank Chanel and the manager of the Chanel store of Torino! It really made my day!

SNEAKERS!

My current obsession, has gone from loafers, to (now that its cold) sneakers! I recently saw Chiara Ferragni's (The Blonde Salad) glitter sneakers online, and I fell in love with them immediately, but then while I was walking in Torino with my family today I saw them and just fell even more in love (I might buy them on saturday) =).
The one thing that (actually two things) stop me from directly buying those sneakers are the Isabel Marant sneakers with the hidden wedge and the Gienchi studded ones!
Which ones would you guys pick? :)
p.s. none of these photos are mine :)

Surprise surprise!

Today I went to the Chanel boutique and bought myself some nice things! I love Chanel, its my number 1 favorite brand, thats why when I stepped in I felt like I had just found heaven on earth, there were so many beautiful pieces of the new collection, I just went nuts in there! 

Stay tuned for tomorrows post of what I bought!   

Current obsessions!

LOAFERS AND MOCASSINS! I love them! They're my current obsession! I used to think that mocassins werent my style and that loafers were the ugliest thing on this planet. But now? everything's changed about them! I cant wait to find a pair that I like here in Torino so that I can finally have my own! I think that loafers would be just perfect for everyday wear or for going to school, and I think that the Tod moccassins are just beautiful!

All loafers : Charlotte Olympia

Mocassins: Tods

Wearing Stradivarius..

Finally back home in Turin after a long weekend in Alassio where I got to see my friends and boyfriend. As soon as I arrived in Alassio last wednesday the weather has been terrible, its freezing cold, I went from shorts and a tank top to, jacket, jeans and boots in literally one day! Hopefully tomorrow the weather will be better so I can take some photos outside and show you all the things I bought in these couple of days! In this post I'm wearing the new things I bought from stradivarius. I've been using all three items (boots, jacket and jeans) a lot in these past few days and I just love them, cute and cozy! My whole outfit is from Stradivarius apart from my shirt which is Hollister and my pink Hérmes bangle which I adore!

Ombre or Brunette Lens?

I recently got my hair done while I was in Dubai. I got my hair dyed so it had that ombre effect that I just love! Funny story, the hairdresser screwed it ALL up, I'm telling you my hair was literally black until the height of my ears and then this weird orangey blonde all the way down to my shoulders :/

So basically after a while the hairdresser did it again and fortunately she was able to fix it and now it looks like proper ombre hair, phew right?

Anyhow, here are some photos of me right after I had my hair fixed and finished! 

Stay tuned for outfit photos with my ombre hair!

Welcome to the new Brunette Lens

Welcome welcome! How are you guys adjusting to the new banner and layout of the blog? I personally find it much nicer and clearer to look at. I liked the black background but I think that white makes it more serene and clearer and is also much nicer to look at. I don't know if its just me but if I would have to read a lot of things with a black background it makes me squint a lot more than with a white background. Tell me what you guys think about it now, was it better before, are there things that should be changed? Todo!

SUP...

Today my brother, alex and me went paddle boarding on the Burj beach. It was my second time and Nick's (my brother) first time paddle boarding and it was really fun and a good workout for our arms at the same time! I cant wait for the waves to be good in Dubai so that I can go surfing :D

p.s. SUP stands for Stand or Surf Up Paddle!

Parco del Valentino

Unfortunately I still haven't been able to go to Madrid but the flights got sorted out and I''ll leave for madrid the 7th of May, its been so hectic lately with many many things to study with exams coming up and presentations to make for a school thats coming to visit soon, my subject is Italian fashion (yayyy) and I chose Gucci so I'll see if once its done I can manage to get my powerpoint up here! Today was a good day so I decided to go with my mom to Parco del Valentino. I'd only been there once before and never really got to see it well until today. Its such a nice and relaxing place, where a lot of families go to take a walk, play football, take some pictures...ect.  I wore a really basic look but comfortable for going to a park, I wrote my brand new red vans and my new scarf! 

p.s. Happy Earth day! :)

Women's Day

As I said on the previous post I wasn't able to post pictures yesterday so I am going to post them tonight. I do realize they would look better outside but the roads where I live are all like ancient and they are all small rocks in the ground (sorry I don't know how to call that) and I would fall all the time ahaha (like when i went to the dinner with chiara ferragni the floor there was all 'rocky' and I fell a couple times, okay a lot of times and It was quite embarrassing ahah) anyways I wore some pretty basic things: Louis vuitton speedy, a vintage chanel shirt, basic black intimissimi leggings and my favorite heels!
oh I was forgetting! Happy women's day :)

Lost & Found

I recently found some pictures I had taken of my cat and I thought it would be nice to share them with you guys! This is mainly a fashion blog but, I also created it due to my passion for photography :) tell me what you guys think!! I cropped these pictures because I thought you can see her 'expressions' in these photo's! 

p.s. her name is Ginger and I loooooooove her  :)

Talking about Louboutin's...

Since I made a post where I talk about a pair of Louboutins I thought it would be okay to mention this 'Louboutin Manicure'. Adele was on the red carpet (I don't know at which event she was at so I'm sorry if I'm wrong) and pictures were shot while she was waving and showing off her cool Louboutin manicure. The top of the manicure was silver and the bottom was red!!

Louboutin Love

I don't know if any of you have noticed my obsession with Christian Louboutin shoes!! I recently saw these on the internet and they immediately took my breath away! The shape, the thickness of the heel the color, everything! I just love them!! What do you guys think of them?? :)

Tattoo's

 Every once in a while I get the urge to get a tattoo but then I somehow end up talking myself out of it. Anyhow these pictures I put up are some of the tattoo's I really like, some of them I like the drawing or the phrase.  I think that if I would get one i would either get it on my rib cage, on the side or on the back of my neck( even if I think it really hurts there..). Enjoy these pictures :)

Black & White

This isn't really the outfit of the day, but I felt like doing something with contrasts today. In the white dress I portray the more angelic side of me and of people and in the dark dress I show the darker side. I love these two dresses but since they are very formal I don't have many occasions to show them to you guys :( Anyways now you can see them ahaha I hope you like them :)

White outfit:

Mytheresa shoes

I love shoes, and I'm constantly looking on the internet for new shoes. The other night on mytheresa I found these beautiful shoes I can't stop thinking about! They're Valentino, one of my absolute favorite brands. They are rose pink suede sandals with stiletto heel and platform side coated, T-strap belt with square gold colored studs, ankle strap with side buckle brown leather and pearl-colored leather sole. Aren't they amazing? I'm sure there are some of you who will like them and some which will love them, its a love or hate thing, I....LOVE THEM :)

                   

I also found these shoes at mytheresa! They are amazing, they're Gucci black in leather ankle boots, I just love them, simplicity always wins!

These are Rupert Sanderson, must I say anything else? They're just wonderful, I love these too.

These are shoes by Marni, I love these because they are classy even if they have a lot of detailed embellishments, I think these shoes are really great because they look good with almost everything! 

Venaria

Today after studying I decided to take a break and go visit Venaria with my parents since the weather was so good today it seemed like a shame to not go outside and enjoy it. Venaria is a cute little place, we were going to visit more but the que was infinite so we decided to take some pictures from the outside :)

Subdued sweater

Dubai, Atlantis

My second last day in Dubai was spent at Atlantis. Here are some of the pictures of me at Atlantis, there was a lot of people there and there was so much wind but the view was breathtaking! That day we decided to go to Altantis so that we could visit the Palm and look around. During the night we went for some shisha,were i managed to learn how to order one in arabic, min fadlik wahed a nab wa nana shisha shukran(excuse me can i have a grape mint shisha, thanks), I'm not sure if thats how its spelt but thats what it sounds like  :)

Dinner with Chiara Ferragni, The Blonde Salad

While visiting Dubai I got to meet the blogger from The Blonde Salad Chiara Ferragni! I met her and her boyfriend Riccardo. They were both really fun and interesting.  That night  I also met Kristina Bazan from Kayture, she was also really nice :).Unfortunately I don't have a photo with Kristina but these are the pictures I took with Chiara and my friend Giulia :) I did only meet them for that one night but they seem like wonderful people, and what I loved is that they were really down to earth :) I hope to meet her soon again :)

 Hey everyone!
Sorry for the massive delay! I was just so so so so busy, anyways 2012 has started and i haven't had a chance to tell you about 2011. During 2011 I have had amazing experiences and have had lots of fun, with my friends, on trips, at parties and with family.  This year I went to Birmingham with my classmates, I had loadss of fun! We visited the one and only Cadbury Chocolate Factory :) We visited many places and just had lots of fun! Unfortunately I don't have pictures :(
~~~A little bit later on the 11 of Jan I went to my best friends birthday party where i met new people and just enjoyed my time :)

 This was the banner we made for her! We brought her to this amazing park where we hung this up at the entrance! She really liked this :)

 This was us before going to dinner to meet other people! From left to right :The birthday girl, Charli and then me :)

This was a picture they took of me at the party:)

Ahh summertime, don't you just love summertime??, When you have time to relax, when you go to sleep at 5 in the morning because you went to a party not because you had homework to do, when you can just sit for the whole day under the sun with high hopes of getting a nice tan without peeling right after,  go to the beach, meet new people, sit in the sun with your best friend and checking out guys, when you can just take everything easy and have lots of fun! well, I LOVE IT!!
This summer I went on a cruise for a month, it was simply amazing. It was my first cruise ever and I was not expecting it to be that good. We went to Greece, Turkey, Romania, Ucraine :)
This is the first cruise, it was in Greece and Turkey:

and this is the second cruise, it was in Greece, Turkey, Romania and Ucraine :)

 

          

To anyone out there who has never been on a cruise, GO NOW! ahaha :)

After the cruise I saw my best friend I met many years before when I used to live in Dubai, and almost 6 years had passed since I last saw her. I was so so soo happy to see her! I couldnt feel the huge 'gap' of time that had passed, we are so close it feels like i saw her yesterday! 

                                          

That was basically my summer, I loved it and had so much fun :)

For halloween and other vacations I went to the mountains with some friends and family.  Now I'm on christmas vacation like I'm sure most of you are, I got loads of really cute presents but the best one was a surprise ticket to Dubai for me and my brother :D I was all over the place when I found out and I smiled non-stop!

I met some really nice people here in Dubai and had loads of fun at parties, people are very welcoming and definitely know how to party :)
