Christmas Giveaway #9 JEAN PAUL GAULTIER PARFUMS

20 December 2013

I often give you the possibility to win Jean Paul Gaultier perfumes on this blog. It has become such a ritual that I couldn’t imagine this Advent Calendar without a corset or a sailor shirt.

And now is the perfect timing since there are two limited editions of Le Mâle and Classique, both adorned with the signature stripes of our dear JPG!

I happen to have attended a conference with Jean Paul Gaultier and Francis Kurkdjian – the perfumer who created Le Mâle – during the exhibition “The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier : From the sidewalk to the … READ MORE

And I’m really glad because our 7^th giveaway is for boys and girls!

Indeed, INKKAS is an upcoming American brand that produces sneakers for both men and women (flat or high) in traditional Peruvian fabrics. In the vague of fair trade brands … READ MORE

Christmas Giveaway #6 MONNIER Frères

16 December 2013

I’m back with a “giveaway outfit”, despite the snow storm of the week end. It has almost totally melted by now, but Saturday night was magical! New York was all white and for the first time since I’ve been here, the city was slowing down. I’m sure that only the people that live or have lived in the heart of Manhattan can understand how good it feels not to hear the traffic – there are much less cars, and to see the “city that never sleeps” finally taking a little break!!

Sadly, it didn’t last long, and the snow started … READ MORE
