As humans we are really endowed with senses that we should use to our advantage. The sense of smell in particular is very important, for me anyway since I adore scents! You’ll probably say that’s typical in a woman. Well scents add spice to life. Just imagine what life would be like if we cannot distinguish the different aromas wafting in the air. And it would be a great loss if we can’t experience a perfume like this J’adore Eau de Parfum from Dior, a perfume that’s truly an embodiment of pure femininity. Its scent exudes fruity and floral boquet that will make you think of magnificent and mysterious things.

Bags have become very indispensable. And you know for a fact that bags nowadays come in a variety of styles that you’d get dizzy choosing one for yourself sometimes. Different occasions call for different kinds of bags right? For traveling purposes Louis Vuitton could have the answer to all our travel bag needs with the announcement that they have come up with the “Ultimate Travel Bag”. This “Ultimate Travel Bag” came into fruition in cooperation with Times of London Fashion Editor Lisa Armstrong.

A lot has happened once again in your favorite reality fashion show Project Runway. After Chris was eliminated from the show because of the Tiki Barber challenge, another contestant left the show in tears – Jack Mackenroth.

So in the middle of the new challenge of creating an outfit for the everyday woman, and with a quick group hug, Jack exits the show. But with Jack’s exit, one eliminated contestant returns – welcome back Chris March! Yes, he’s back again on the show!

It’s Christmas holidays again! Festive spirit’s in the air and for sure there will be lots of parties this coming holiday. Maybe even as I write, some are already holding some pre-holiday gatherings. And even though I am not very keen about parties, I make holidays like Christmas an exception. This is the best time to make memories. Pictures are the usual memento for these events, so what could you do to make your party not so ordinary? Well, making your guests sign on the Signature Bowl using the Sterling Silver Scribe from Steuben Glass would make it more memorable. Then for more there’s also the festive Signature Beakers to let them sign on.

Nicole Kidman always looks stunning on the red carpet ... her gowns are trendy, classy and top notch!
She could never be in a Fashion Disaster post! Never!
Nicole Kidman wore something quiet different on the red carpet of the Australian premiere of "The Golden Compass" ... She chose a suit, a silver suit!
From far, the suit looks like a big piece of tin foil! Don't you think so?
But really, Nicole's got everything in perfect place and always looks chic.
What do you think of her silver suit? Love it or Hate it?

I’ve been looking for a new wallet for quite some time now but I just can’t seem to find the right one. I want something that’s spacious enough to hold bills, coins as well as cards. And of course it should be stylishly done without being flamboyant. Usually I like my things to be stylish yet in a subdued manner. Do you think this Patchwork Eugenie from Marc Jacobs Collection fits the bill? I like its texture on the outside especially the embossed patchwork pattern. It’s soft to the touch because the material that makes it up is shiny, grained leather.

I’m beginning to be really great admirer of Carrie Underwood! Not only does she have a talent in singing, she also has a great taste in fashion! I say so because in several events that she’s been seen she always seems to outshine others with the kind of outfits she wears. She usually favors the gold, and skin tone type of colors, which I think are quite becoming on her. But I must say that red is also her color. She looked great in this red dress that she was wearing at the “Movies Rock 2007” event at the Kodak Theater Hollywood.

The brand Viktor & Rolf would never be associated with the ordinary. Nope, definitely not as evident in their design collections and fashion shows. The Viktor & Rolf characteristics when combined with another excellent product will certainly be a winner. Famed French champagne brand Piper-Heidsieck seems to think so too when they asked the designing duo to make a unique design for the limited edition of Rose Sauvage. Viktor and Rolf did not disappoint because the resulting product is something that you can’t ignore! If you haven’t seen champagne with an inverted design, now you can with the limited edition Piper-Heidsieck Rose Sauvage.

What do you think of this look? Do you love it or hate it?
Would you wear red skinny jeans for Christmas? ... Hmm ... I would!

Babies and toddlers are already cute in themselves. With just a flash of their small teeth…that’s if he or she already has them…you can’t help but hug and kiss them, right?

They’re delightful and would just look so good on your baby. Crankypants by Amy Kett comes in different designs like monster face, sock monkey or Jolly Roger. But if you want something really unique and different color combinations Amy Kett also accepts custom orders.

The latest to go home is Chris. It was a tense moment as Chris and Ricky waited for the verdict as to who will leave and who will continue with the challenge. Finally it was Chris’ time to say bye to the show.
