My assignment this week is to find a present out for my sister-in-law Valentine day.

My brother e-mailed me 2 days ago a bracelet he wanted to offer to his sweetheart. The bracelet was nice, but way too expensive for what it was worth. I couldn’t say to my brother. “Dude, it’s uglyly expensive! Find something else”. I can’t! You agree? Now I am searching the web something nicer. The task is hard since my sister-in-law and I are very different to each other. I’m rather feminine. She’s tomboy. I like sporting one bold piece that makes a difference. She loves several smaller pieces. She’s more bling. And I’m talking about someone I spent only 2 weeks with last year. I’m talking about someone who was yawning while I was talking talked about my quest for my sister’s wedding last summer. But my brother is my hero, and I can’t let him down. So I went to think as a tomboy would and guess what would make my eyes sparkle for Valentine day. My brother’s first choice was a bracelet, so I went for jewellery and other accessories on my favorite websites: Net-a-Porter, The Outnet and Luisa Via Roma.

Here are my picks

Going through work day to night out with elegance.

This is my ultimate wish list.

I go out the shower. I dry my hair. I moisturize my body with my favorite creamy lotion.

I catch up my Elle Mac Pherson Intimate underwear and choose right away my shoes. I’m out tonight. I need something comfy. This is going to be my black suede Camilla Skovgaard boots.

Skin-like eye shadow and a line of black eye liner on my upper lids. Lip colored lipstick, cloud of orange blush on my cheeks.

I slip on my black Miu Miu wool piqué dress, slide a Burberry brass wire necklace around my neck. I got just enough time to throw all my stuffs from my black bag to my brand new Chloe Paraty brick red python shoulder bag (I love it). I put on my Marni studded bone ring, and the Isharya 18 Kt gold plated floral filigree cuff I borrowed to my BFF Vero … well …. 2 months ago … (Thanks honey. you’re so sweet) while I admire myself in the mirror. Damn, I forgot the mascara. 1 minute application of a heavy black mascara. Last glimpe. Just Perfect. I’m out.On my way to the metro, I put Oliver People oversized Chelsea sunglasses on my nose.

Waow, what a day. I’m late. the dinner is in 20 minutes. I got just 5 minutes to change my outfit. Impossible. I just change the bag over a Judith Leiber crytsal embellished fold over clutch. Aaaah! Here you are burnt orange crocodile pattern Skovgaard sandals. I put them on. No, no. I can’t. My feet are crying. It is going to be flat golden leather jewel embellished ¬†ballerinas. So comfy. So classy. I switch the wire necklace against Kenneth Jay Lane diamanté strand necklace. My iPhone rings while I’m putting on my Nina Peters studded black leather gloves. “Hi Honey, Sorry I’m gonna be 10 minutes late. Crazy day. I’ll tell you. I catch up my Rochas wool and silk double breasted jacket and I’m on my way to the restaurant. See ya”

Oh nooo! 7 am. I switch off the waking up alarm. What a sweet dream. Thanks net-a-porter.com.
