Hello, my name is Sabina and I am a beautyholic
Having obsessions is not lovely at all but having little ones it’s acceptable. 2 years ago it was about being skinny, last summer about having skin that’s too white- hence the (still) full drawer of St. Tropez tanning mousse, then there was a brief obsession for lingerie and so on. My latest preoccupation is finding the perfect beauty products. Not that such thing exist, but I have to...

The model and the woman
I really don’t like it when I see a collection designed entirely for models. And that’s what the Fall 2012 VPL collection is. Not only that knits are difficult to wear anyway, but to design knitted shorts and jumpsuits is just too much. No one can really pull such a look without having Anja Rubik’s legs.
Call these clothes cool or edgy but don’t call them...

Fall 2012
Having peeked at New York Fashion Week’s shows so far, I can tell that I see lots of leather, colours, Asian inspired prints, very well structured shapes and a general allure of Holly Golightly circa 2012.

In defence of Lana Del Rey
Here I am, on a sunny yet cold Saturday morning listening to Lana Del Rey’s new album, something that I’ve been doing everyday for the past week or so. I am in love with her haunting songs and her weird voice. Not to mention her style. Yes, you’ve guessed well, I find Lana Del Rey very lovely indeed. I think all these rummors and bad things people keep saying about her are...

Green goddess or the end of an affair
Since discovering Crussh I’ve been religiously drinking their juices. Especially the “green goddess” juice with a detox booster. Every morning I go there and ask for my juice although I presume that the people who work there already know what I want. Recently I’ve started doing wheatgrass shots as well. Yes, they taste absolutely disgusting but one small shot contains the...

While waiting for spring to sprung
It seems like the the whole world is frozen and the piles of snow everywhere make people don’t want to leave the house and cosy up in layers and layers of knits. Yet I dream about spring and allow myself to fantasise about Prada’s creamy pastel pleats and Jil Sander’s white skirts that can certainly not be worn at the present time. However, I need to do a round-up of SS favorites...
