Today I wanted to talk about shoes and my little favorite shop. As I was looking for some pictures _ as usual _ I found their internet site. And what was just my little favorite shop suddenly became "the temple of trendy shoes since the 70's".

The temple is called La Guardia and is about 20 m from my place, kind of the shop around the corner. In their shop I discovered ndc. ndc used to be a bit too "roots" but I find it has became just lovely. Have a look on their website : ndcmadebyhand.com

And I am buying a camera real soon. Promise!

PS : La Guardia, rue des Canettes, Paris 6


Well I have some time today and no wish to do the cleaning I should be doing, so let me introduce one more little thing to you : AESOP.

Aesop and me 1st met in Taiwan. In that great lounge we used to go, Sofa. They had a great hand soap which smelled so good I used to go to the bathroom at least 3 times a night and smell my hands the entire time. I found their store in Taipei but couldn't bring a bottle back in my luggage. I just mourned my good smelling hands and went back to France.

And then one day I am on Colette's website and I see they sell this brand, right here in Paris. I go there looking for my handsoap... They are out. But the lady tells me to check out their boutique, rue Bonaparte, approximately 100 m away from my place!!!

I want looking for the Resurrection Aromatique Handwash ( Lavender and orange) and went out (once again) with a resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm and a face cleanser for my mom.

I have never taken good care of my hands until now because I just forgot to attend to them. I never had my balm with me when I needed it. With this products, it smells so good I use it all the time just to smell it, and my hands say "thanks"...
During Paris Fashion Week, for some reason I heard this name a lot. And then one afternoon I was walking back from the Bon Marché in the rue du Cherche Midi and POF!!! Dice Kayek's boutique.
Well let"s go in and see what this s all about...

 There were not so many pieces in the store, just enough so you can look at everything and find something you love.

 There were these little black dress from the 1st line:


 Also very colored little top from the Pink Label (2nd line). I bought one, I am so happy with it. Plain red. The details are exquisite.
I found a top that looks just like it on rush I couldn't just copy and paste the picture I am sorry... they are ptotected. Mine is red, the sleeves and collar are made of a transparent silk with mutlicolor dots (and the price was 90€). Please note the difference between the front and back. Holders (hope this is the right translation for pince) and blousing in the back, this just looks so good when you're wearing it.

 I guess it's time for me to buy a camera if I really want to show you the things I like.

 If, just like me, you are wondering who Dice Kayek is, well just know that the designer's name is Ece Ege, she comes from Turquey and started her fashion line in 1992.

 As I am unemployed for the moment I tend to try and stay away from the shop as I seem to have compulsive buying problems when it comes to Dice Kayek: -) but please, feel free to go and have a look (10 , rue du Cherche Midi).
That's actually all I had to say. I am at work now and really don't have time to talk about the AW 08 collections... Just saying I haven't totally forgotten this blog.
I'll be back with the best of AW 08 on the catwalks and the best of SS 08 in your store!!
