Fashion~Carolina Herrera's Spring Collection 2012



Carolina Herrera

Hi, everyone! There is one month of Spring left, may, so we thought to show you Carolina Herrera's spring collection for women 2012. We chose her collection because we think it is very cool, colorfull, lively and also chic and elegant. So, let's get it started!

The spring 2012 collection stands out the modernity of lines and the fluidity of soft silhouettes, functional cuts, subtle folds and embroidery details that evoke the aesthetics of some artistic moves of the 1920s. The color palette takes its cue from the trays of the ”Antebellum Bakelite” bangles, combining geometric lines with sparrow prints in comflower blue, canary yellow, red and grass green. Carolina Herrera New York Eyewear and CH Carolina Herrera Matryoshka Handbag in canary yellow, red and black with piping details complete the silhouette.

We chose two favourite outfits (hard decission), which you can see in the photos below.

We chose this dress because of its interesting colours, canary yellow and grass green, the lower side, which is very feminin, the cute belts, the nice bracelets and the finished look, in spite of the 'waves' from the lower side. This outfit totally matches the rest of the collection because of the colours, the patterns and the materials that were used for creating this dress. It is wearable, but only at very special occasions, because of the upper side of the dress is a little transparent and because of the TOO chic and elegant look.

The second look that we chose is this medium-long dress. We liked the colours, black, white and red, which match very well. The black and white lines are vertical, not horizontal, which makes the sillhouette look taller and slimer. The red belt brings colour to the dress. The purse is also chic and well matched. The sunglasses are also very cool. It is a little harder for you to see the little cut in the front of the dress, at the model's knees, which we think it is very elegant, like that kind of office skirts that have the same little cut. We would definitely buy that dress.

So, we hope you enjoyed this post, and stay tuned on U.C.Me. Bye, XOXO!

Music~This summer's concerts

Hey, guys! This summer, in Romania, there are going to be a lot of concerts. Lady Gaga and Red Hot Chili Peppers are the most famous artists/bands who will come here. We are not big fans of RHCP, but we <3 Lady Gaga's songs.

 

Lady Gaga announced on her Twitter page that she will concert in Romania, on August 16th. The tour called "Born this way ball" will start on April 27th, in Korea, and it will end on October 6th, in Spain.

The concert in Romania is going to be on the National Arena. The lowest price of a ticket will be 130 RON, which means 43$, and the highest one will be 495 RON, which means 165$.

The tickets will start to be sell on April 27th. 

This is the first time when Mother Monster comes to Romania, so we all are very excited about the concert.

    

 About the Red Hot Chili Peppers concert, all we know is that it is going to be on 31st of August, also on the National Arena. The prices are the same as they are at the Lady Gaga concert. All the tickets were sold, but we don't regret this.  

                  

So, we hope you enjoyed this post and it helped you. We would love to go to the Lady Gaga concert, but we're not sure if we will go. Bye! XOXO

Reading~Books for teenagers

Hey, guys! Everybody knows that teenagers don't enjoy reading as much as their parents would want, so we thought to show you some books which we think you will like.

One of our favourite authours is Agatha Christie a.k.a. "The Queen of Crime". Her books keep the reader wonder about who's the killer, but usually the killer is someone that the reader would never guess. Nati-pon reads "The mirror crack'd from side to side", which is about a famous actress who comes in a village, where one of her fans dies, very mysterious. You should read any of her books, because they won't disappoint you.

If you would like to read something more . . . modern and you're bored of vampires and wolves, you should try to read "The invention of Hugo Cabret". If you didn't hear about it before, maybe you heard about the movie "Hugo", directed by Martin Scorsese, which almost got the Oscar for the best movie this year. It is an interesting book because it is 50% written, 50% drawed. You could read it in less than . . . 3-4 days. Nati-pon already read it, and she thinks it is AWESOME.

Another very popular book is "The diary of a wimpy kid", written by Jeff Kinney. For the ones who didn't read it yet, it is a nice book, very easy to read. Maybe your parents won't like you to read it as much as they would like you to read Agatha Christie's books, but it's a beggining ;)


Some teenagers, like Didi-pon, discovered manga, which is the Japanese word for "cartoon". It has some words, but it is not a book. The New York Times made a top of best sellers. It looks like this:

1. SPICE AND WOLF, VOL. 6, by Isuna Hasekura
2. POKEMON BLACK AND WHITE, VOL. 6, by Hidenori Kusaka
3. PANDORA HEARTS, VOL. 9, by Jun Mochizuki
4. IS THIS A ZOMBIE?, VOL. 1, by Shinichi Kimura
5. NARUTO, VOL. 55, by Masashi Kishimoto

By the way, if you have seen the movie "The Hunger Games", you should know there is even a book, with the same name, written by Suzzane Collins.
So, this was the today's post, we hope you enjoyed it and it will help you to read something that you'll like. Happy Easter, for the ones who already celebrated it! Bye!

Healthy~How to stay fit

Hi, everyone! This is the first post of this month! It's already April, so the weather became warm (almost hot) and today it was sunny, so we went jogging in a park from Bucharest. That's why we thought to write this post about how to stay fit :)

It's very important to move. You can just walk, which is realxing, you can dance while you're listening a crazy song, you can go jogging, like us, you can ride a bike or jump rope, which really works. A good advice would be "go to the pool", because you stay fit, if you swim, and it's also relaxing and funny. The idea is to not lay at home, probably watching TV.

About what you should eat, there are the same rules. I (Nati-pon) think that the people that talk about this at the TV taught us: vegetables and fruits are good; anything else is evil. But it's not like this. I think people can eat almost anything without to get fatter, as long as they don't eat TOO much. Since tha last summer, I started to eat a lot of salad, especially one kind of salad with little "pieces" of grilled chicken, green salad, some boiled eggs, little pieces of cheese and radishes. You should try it. It's really healthy and it's DELICIOUS! It's probably one of my favourites food  ever and i am picky about food.

Even if it's not a part of staying fit, you should respect some rules about how you dress, especially if you're a little fat.

Tip #1 Try to avoid tight things.

Tip #2 Stay away from horizontal stripes.

Tip #3 Wear one-colour dresses, but make sure it has an amazing colour, because people have to look at the colour of the dress, not at your body.

Tip #4 Wear dark colours, especially black, but not completely black.

Tip #5 Try to avoid too long and too short skirts or dresses.

So, this is today's post. We hope you liked it and it helped you to stay fit. Keep reading U.C.Me for more good advices!
