Brexit: Expectations about the Fashion Industry

Posted 2016-06-302016-09-04 Mirela de Lacerda2 CommentsPosted in Real Life

Last Friday, I woke up with the sad news that UK chose to leave the European Union. Even though I wasn’t completely surprised, as the polls pointed to it, I hoped that in the end, the Remain would win by a tiny margin. Since then, the political and economic uncertainty mood took over, reinforced by […]

Brands We Love: Stila

Posted 2016-06-292016-09-06 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Brands We Love

I can’t honestly say if I love the Stila products more than the brand iconic dolls. I was so obsessed with the “Stila Girls” that I had many images on a file and even used them as my computer backdrop! I always thought that the company name and the illustrations (now not so present in […]

Icon: Grace Kelly

Posted 2016-06-272016-09-17 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Icons & Inspirations

She wasn’t born princess but Hitchcock’s favourite blonde had all it takes to be one. Grace Kelly’s royal beauty is simply timeless!

Dream Spas: Amanyara, Turks & Caicos

Posted 2016-06-242016-09-17 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Dream Spas

You know that image of a Caribbean resort, surrounded by the turquoise sea, serenity and luxury? Well, Amanyara is the answer for all that! Starting with the name (aman = peace in Sanscrit and yara = place in the Arawak native language), the hotel located in Turks & Caicos is worth the title of tropical […]

Can’t Live Without: Lip Balm

Posted 2016-06-222016-09-17 Mirela de Lacerda1 CommentPosted in Products & Treatments

  I hate the feeling of dry lips. Really, really hate it. And our tendency to lick them in a helpless attempt to make the dryness goes away, only makes it worse. That’s why I can’t live without lip balm! I think of them as Gremlins that multiply all over, so there is always one […]

Beauty Dilemmas: The Search for the Perfect Red

Posted 2016-06-202016-09-18 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Beauty Dilemmas

I wasn’t born a redhead but I’m really happy when people think I’m a natural one (even here in the UK, land of gingers, I have been asked about it, which is really flattering). Until my late teens, I applied a kind of golden blonde, honey-toned colour but in 2004, started thinking about a more […]

Vintage Time: L’Oréal Exuberance

Posted 2016-06-172016-09-04 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Vintage Time

This Vintage Time is also a request for L’Oréal to bring it back! Launched in the mid-90s, Exuberance was a colour foam mousse that lasted more or less 7 washes. It had 12 shades, was super easy to use and a simple way to experiment with hair colouring. I tried it when I was an […]

How to be a Freelancer in the Creative Industry

Posted 2016-06-162017-10-31 Mirela de Lacerda2 CommentsPosted in Career

Here in the UK, freelancing is on the rise. Since last year there are more 182.000 people working for themselves, with a total of 4.69 million citizens declaring being self-employed.  The trend will only grow as the so-called shared economy expands opportunities worldwide and Wi-Fi connections allow us to be online practically everywhere. In fashion […]

Entrepreneurial Lessons: Marie Drago, Gallinée

Posted 2016-06-152018-02-27 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Career

I discovered Gallinée when I was doing a research for the post about probiotic skincare and immediately were hooked about the science behind the products and the fact that the brand, launched about 2 months ago, was funded by a Kickstarter campaign. That’s an entrepreneurial story worth sharing! So, this week I met the lovely Marie […]

Pleasure to Meet: Lierac

Posted 2016-06-142016-09-17 Mirela de LacerdaLeave a commentPosted in Pleasure to Meet

Although it’s not as popular as La Roche Posay, Vichy and Avène, Lierac is the typical French pharmacy brand, one that combines efficacy with sensory experiences. It was established in 1975 by a cosmetic doctor and was the first one dedicated to correct the signs of ageing on the face and body. The range includes products […]
