I don't really know what's the name of this hairstyle, I call this "the wavy braid"because it looks a bit like a wave. Unfortunatly I don't have a tutorial for this hairstyle because my sister told me what she wanted and I just did it. I'll try to explain anyway :) It's not really that complicated to do, I did it two times and it's quite simple actually
<----- First time I did it
So you want to do a braid by always adding wicks of hair from the top and putting them into the braid. Then you have two options, you can release a section of hair under your braid or keep all the hair in it. For this tutorial I used the technique of the waterfall braid that you can see on this video (it's not my video) it will maybe help you.
Second time I did it ------>

Chanel - 531 Péridot
This is the brand new nail polish by Chanel. It's very controversial, this changing color goes with everything, we like it or we don't, it's a matter of taste. The color range goes from golden to pine green. We can see on the pictures below that it really changes in function of the luminosity. The darker the room is, the greener it goes. It's difficult to take all the colors it gaves it picture. It dries quickly, it's very easy to apply. I really don't regret buying it!

Vans and Kenzo
I've always liked wearing Vans items in spring but when I found those shoes I really xanted one for this summer! This is the perfect result of the collaboration beetwin Vans and Kenzo. 7 pairs of Vans Era with the pattern fishing net, the most important pattern of the new Kenzo collection. Some of you may think "How am I ever gonna these wonders?" well nothing is more simple! Stay simple, wear them with jeans shorts ans a white t-shirt, no need for more. Get them in Kenzo stores, on the e-shop or at the Colette store.
I GOT MINE, THE HALF RED/HALF GREEN ONES :D!!!

Spencer Hasting's preppy look
I don't know if you're watching Pretty Little Liars, but I am and it's awesome!! Some of my friends have asked me on my facebook page and my facebook personnal page if I could write an article on Spencer Hasting's preppy look so here it is!
(Btw if any of you wants any article, just ask me by leaving a message on this blog or by sending me a message on my facebook page)
If you want to dress up like Spencer, you have to mix up masculinity and femininity. Try pairing a dainty printed dress with a structured menswear-inspired blazer, or match a mini and textured tights with Oxford shoes or loafers. Juxtaposing soft silhouettes against structured ones adds subtle but compelling interest to your outfit.
Stick to muted and neutral colors. Spencer’s wardrobe is full of neutral, muted, or earth tones. Her palette is perfect for fall: chocolate brown, mustard yellow, cognac, navy blue, and burgundy are some of her favorite hues.
Layer up and play with texture. Just because Spencer prefers muted hues doesn’t mean her look is dull. By layering and using different textures in her looks, Spencer adds attention-getting dimension to every outfit. So make blazers, jackets, long cardis, knee-high socks, and textured tights your best friends. Not sure how to layer and add texture? Start with a foundation, like the denim dress Spencer is wearing in the above picture. Wear knit, sweater or lace tights under the dress. Add a cardigan or jacket. Belt your waist. If you’re wearing boots, layer over the knee top on top of tights.
Throw in preppy classics. Oxford button-down shirts, bows, plaid, loafers, and nautical stripes are all preppy touches seen in Spencer’s wardrobe.
When the occasion calls, go glam. Spencer’s everyday look is never flashy, but when Homecoming rolled around, she knew it was time to go glam. But even in her silver party dress and chunky necklace, she didn’t betray her style: her look was structured, yet feminine, with interesting textural fabric and jewelry that mixed pearls and chains.

the romantic bun
Hi guys, sorry I've been quite busy and I haven't posted any articles for quite a long time but I haven't forget you and here is a easy hairstyle for the summer :)
THE ROMANTIC BUN
This hairstyle is perfect for a first date or a day at the beach. If you like the "baby rock" style, if you wear liberty dresses with a perfecto and boots, well this is THE ONE hairstyle for you!
- You take a big section of hair near your forehead, above the extremity of your eyebrow and you
- With the rest of your hair, you want to do a low bun, a bit messy
- You take out some very small sections of hair around your neck and and face.
- You braid the hair you put aside earlier so that it covers the upper part of your forehead.
- If you have long enough hair, you can tuck the end of your braid into your bun, otherwise you secure it with a bobby pin
- You may want to secure everything with a bit of hairspray or some bobby pins.
- Don't worry if the look isn't perfect or very regular. The messier the better, that's what makes the charm of the look

Here's another nail tutorial, very fun and so easy to realize! You need a pen (for the drawing) and black polish. On this tuto, we're showing it to you how it looks like on a French manicure but you can also try it with colors nails.
The final look is kinda cool, I really liked it as I'm totally mad of the whiskers :) Anyway, you might have some difficulties doing the form of the whiskers to another solution is to use sticky paper which you'll just cut in a whisker form, then you want to put polish on it and just stick it on the nail where you want it to be. Remove the paper with tweezers and you're done! EIther way of doing it are great, you can try both and choose the easiest for you!

Yellow, that's what summer is all about!
Yellow is referred as the 'new black'. Everyone should have at least one yellow item in their closet. The good thing about yellow, is that everyone sells it so you can easily find a yellow piece of clothing that will suit you. I highly recommend the total look, it looks amazing and fits perfectly with the arrival of the summer, the sun, and Happiness! If you don't want to try the total yellow look (which is awesome!) you still can wear yellow by using small items. Shoes for example to illuminate a black dress, or a bag to match a white look, and even make up or jewelry. You can wear yellow during the day and the night, in any situation! It will illuminate your look and help you to shine. Moreover, it is proved that wearing bring and happy color, such as yellow, helps having a good day. So why not try it?
Pastel jeans
Pastel jeans are THE jeans to wear this spring and summer. Associate it with a white shirt (not to tight), and you'll look gorgeous! You don't want a total pastel look, brown looks super with pastel, you can also use white, grey, or rust color!
My favorite look is : a green pastel jeans, with this shirt, white shoes, this bag, and a fine mesh jacket (same color as the bag). It really looks great and I recommend it to everyone!

Topshop's Underwear
We all want underwear that can fit any situation. Because yes, underwear ARE important and they tell a lot about us. We don't want them to say "I don't care of my look, I'm comfy and that's all that counts" because this is sooo not sexy and it is so not true! But we don't want them to say "I'm so sexy that I don't care if my boobs are ok because I'm attractive!'' which will make you look like a complete idiot. No, we want underwear that we will be proud of, underwear that are our reflexion, in which we are confident because they are sexy, comfy and look great! That's why Topshop's underwear are simply the best! They look cool, they are comfy, great, sexy and they have ever thing we want underwear to have. I bought some when I was in London last month, since then I ordered like 6 pairs of matching underwear on the internet.

Easy Everyday Makeup Tutorial
This is a very simple make up tutorial for every day, super easy to do and very quick. Perfect if you're in a crunch for time but you still want to make up.
1. Swirl you finger in a shimmery eyeshadow and apply in a windshield wiper like motion over each eye.
2. Using a silver eye liner crayon or pencil (it looks great with cream eyesshadow too), line from your inner conner to the middle of your water line (bottom lid).
3. Fill in the remaining waterline with black eyeliner pencil/crayon.
4. Put on some mascara like you usually do, and you're done!

Retractable eyeliner is the best to use for this look, it's like a pencil but it's softer. You twist it up istead of sharpening it.

Hello guys !
Hi everyone! I'm Annabelle, I'm French and this is my blog. It's a fashion and lifestyle blog with the hottest trends from France! Hope you'll like it and share it!
Not true, we are not all different, our tastes are different but the way we act is similar. Who has not tried to fill a washcloth with water? Who has never faked looking at his mobile trying not to see someone? Who does not tear the grass when sitting on the lawn? Who has never had a toothache with a four color pen? Who is not looking for a song which one knows neither the title nor the singer? Finally I mean, let's face the truth just 30 seconds: if there are laws, it is because, above all, human beings areselfish , so no, we are not all completely different, we always find a little bit of us in someone else.
