The song harmonized with her skating so perfectly that it sounded like Kim was actually singing the song.

cosas que amo de Cataluña (y podrían ser muchas más)

Su gastronomía: sabemos que será pisar Cataluña y comer bien. Podemos hacerlo en plan normalillo o en plan Ferrán Adriá o El Celler de Can Roca (gracias, Cataluña por esos genios que nos has dado

 Cataluña lo tiene todo, turísticamente hablando. Tiene playas y montaña, buen clima, parques naturales, Mediterráneo...





Barcelona:

¿Cómo no sentirse feliz en la Barceloneta? ¿Cómo no disfrutar de la vida tapeando en el Raval? ¿Cómo no sentirse maravillado con la arquitectura modernista? ¿Cómo no querer que en tu ciudad se usen tanto las bicicletas como ahí? ¿Cómo no pasártelo pirata (y querer vivir ahí) en las fiestas de Gràcia? Si es que tú mismo acabas despidiéndote con un adeu cuando vas...

 Su modernidad y su espíritu asociativo: 




and in many ways the Catalans are very similar to us Jews(smiles)

10 FAVOURITE FASHION OUTFITS 

1. LACE DRESS

Ahh. Sexy lace dress but still acting classy. Why? Arms are covered and the length gives the illusion to go to the knee, making it look more appropriate even though the lace gives that strong sex appeal. This is the type of dress I love for evenings out, when you want to feel sexy but not slutty! Amazing. I would have chosen beige heels and another bag to make the look according to my taste.

2. PASTEL PINK

I have written about pastel pink before, but this is such a nice combo put together I had to include it today! Everything in pink besides the white top giving some contrast. The Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses are working so well with this entire girly look, especially with one of the flowers matching the outfit. Another reason why I personally enjoy this outfit is because the jacket is not very girly, giving it a good contrast to the rest. And btw, what an amazing skirt – perfect for day time activities when you want to be dressed up!

3. ASYMMETRIC AND INTERESTING

Not sure if this is a dress or a top with a skirt? But hey, that does not matter because this outfit is stunning. So simple but with it’s asymmetric cut very interesting to look at, feels very chic. The skirt being on the shorter side does not signal “sex” (which I find good for day time outfits) because of the way it is fitted. A big plus for the beige heels, works so well with the gorgeous colour of the clothes.

4. BALMAIN DRESS

This amazing creation by Balmain is simply a piece of art. What can you say? You do not even need to make yourself pretty but to still look chic as heck in this dress. I love the way it glimmers, feels like an outfit for a true rockstar. I hope this dress ends up in a museum one day, it truly deserves it.

5. MAXI SEE-THROUGH DRESS

LnFamily is a russian designer which I enjoy to follow. They have so many beautiful dresses but this one is their absolute top seller. It is unique and interesting. I would have probably removed the Chanel necklace she is wearing and just let the dress speak for itself. But then again, I am the type who thinks less is more. Anyway, the dress is stunning, love it!

6. YELLOW AND LIME ENSEMBLE

In a way this look may be slightly “too much” with all it’s colourful items. But I think we need to break our habits of dressing so modest at times and start to experiment more by being bold like in this case. I love the pencil skirt, so chic. The top she is wearing is one of those items you would see hanging left over from a 70% clearance sale and you would ask yourself “WHEN would I ever wear anything like this and to WHAT?”. Well, here is a good example of how a fashionista can create an interesting outfit by playfully combini

7. BUTTON DOWN FRONT DRESS

I keep spotting these dresses once in a while, they are so classy and stylish! I wish I could find more of them in the mainstream shops. They are perfect for day time, when you want to look feminine but have some cover. You can always unbutton as much as you want, showing a little bit of skin like in this picture. I love how she matches the beautiful beige/black with red heels. Perfect colour combination!

8. ORANGE MAXI DRESS

I must admit, I strongly dislike the colour orange on clothes. But when I saw this dress, how could I not like it? It is gorgeous. Feels so girly, feminine and elegant in it’s own way. A dress like this could be worn by someone who is husband hunting because if you see a girl wearing this, you would definitely think “wife material”. A big plus for the sleeves, the cut out for the leg and the beige fabric showing underneath – excellent color combination!

9. 50’S SKIRT WITH BLING TOP

This outfit is just too cool. If she would walk in to a room and sit down next to me, I would feel like the most boring Plain Jane in the world, haha. Not but honestly it is amazing how she is combining a conservative 50’s skirt with this blinged top acting very futuristic. Lovely colours as well, and the hair cut matching the rest of the look.

10. DOLCE & GABBANA OWL DRESS

Dolce & Gabbana are continuing to make “it dresses” for fall. This season we have the red owl dress like shown below. One issue that I have is that I can never wear anything red if my skin is pale. There is something with red on white that I don’t really like. But in this case, she totally rocks it! Pale skin, red dress, red heels – red everything! What a way to go! Feminine and stylish!

It seems as though models are privy to a few secrets that mere mortals aren't. Their skin is always slightly more luminescent, their hair thicker and their nails healthier. And if there's one model who possesses all these traits (and more), it's Adriana Lima....but in reality most models when they wake up in the morning sans makeup they are mere mortals.....

1. She still has the same signature pose. 

2. She still looks gorgeous while be tugged in every which direction.

3. She's still front and center in photos. 

4. She still knows how to make an entrance. 

5. She still has the same friends. 

6. She still has the best strut in the biz (keep in mind the 2013 shot was only 8 weeks after she had her baby). 

St. Petersburgh born Fashion Stylist and Fashion Director of Russian Tatler, Anya Ziourova can switch from polished and chic, to urban and street in a stylish second. Whether it be a Balmain tuxedo jacket, leather dungarees, a printed dress, coloured fur or a beanie hat - Anya is ever the chameleon much like the other members of the affectionately coined 'Russian Mafia'. Her career began at US Vogue and since then Ziourova has gone from strength to strength, her personal style evolving along the way.

Sheer metallic lacy glam. So casual. Sooo casual. And look at those perfectly defined yet unfussy lips. G-d, CCC. Seriously.

a little take on Japan-日本,

 colorful idioms used in Japanese. If you're hiding something but accidentally give yourself away, the Japanese would use the phrase 尻尾が出た shippo ga deta, meaning "your hidden tail came out from behind you [and gave your secret away]," based on the belief that foxes can take human form, but sometimes their tails stick out behind them and give them away. The paycheck from your first job ever was probably a 雀の涙 suzume no namida or a "sparrow's tear," e.g. a very small amount, and the phrase ごますり goma-suri, meaning "to grind up sesame seeds," is how you express the idea of "brown-nosing" your boss in Japanese. Finally, someone with a "wide face" (顏が広い kao ga hiroi) is someone who is well known and influential in a community












Beauty




A facelift, technically known as a rhytidectomy (literally, surgical removal of wrinkles), is a type of cosmetic surgery procedure used to give a more youthful appearance. It usually involves the removal of excess facial skin, with or without the tightening of underlying tissues, and the redraping of the skin on the patient's face and neck.

“When you see a 50-year-old actress who can pass for 35, you can bet that good genes aren’t the only things responsible for her youthful glow.” It’s no secret that the rich and famous of Beverly Hills have been turning to Botox® and plastic surgery for years in an attempt to hang on to their youth. But did you know that many among this “it” crowd have been visiting some of the most expensive clinics in the world for controversial human growth hormone (HGH) therapy?

Why? Because they believe HGH helps reduce body fat, increase lean muscle mass, boost mood, heighten sex drive, gives them plenty of energy, gets rid of wrinkles and tightens saggy skin... making them look and feel decades – not years, but decades – younger. In fact, some are even calling it the “Fountain of Youth.”

and this could be a healthier alternative.........

some of the best, some of the chic and some of the beautiful in the world!!!!

MY PARTING SHOTS

Diane von Furstenberg is one of those incredible women that has never been out of fashion.

And nor have her dresses.

I admire her philosophy,

“I did not know what I wanted to do, but I knew the kind of woman I wanted to be.

I wanted to be an independent woman, a woman who runs her own life, who’s in charge of her life.”

the woman i wanted to be by diane von furstenberg

“In The Woman I Wanted to Be, von Furstenberg reflects on her extraordinary life—from childhood in Brussels to her days as a young, jet-set princess, to creating the dress that came to symbolize independence and power for an entire generation of women. With remarkable honesty and wisdom, von Furstenberg mines the rich territory of what it means to be a woman. She opens up about her family and career, overcoming cancer, building a global brand, and devoting herself to empowering other women, writing, “I want every woman to know that she can be the woman she wants to be.”

and it is amazing how totally in love with herself is Miss Kim..

LOOK: PRAIA EM FORTALEZA 

Israel is known for a lot of things--historic sites, beautiful landscapes, innovative technology...and of course, some stunningly beautiful women. 

The Bay Area Loves Israel

To Israel, with Love.
From the Golden State.

You may have seen the original.  Its hard not to smile watching Mattisyahu’s song reimagined as a love poem to Israel.  The images capture the diversity of Israel’s landscape and Israel’s people.

Now San Francisco is getting in on the act.  

Sure seems that the Bay area is anxious to shed its reputation as an international hub for the de-legitimization of Israel.

It’s time for a champion

Soothe the soul of the land

Mend the heart from the sea and the sand

'Til the sun comes up again

The native name of Israel is Yisrae'el

I am ...Israel is Israel...this blog is the truth as the world and life is.....
