Chelsea Manicure and Nail Art by Rio

Hello, everyone! I haven't been here lately as I was very busy preparing for my exams and just being back to college to the normal routine.
For a long time I liked painting my nails and doing crazy designs. So I was thinking and came to the conclusion of why not to do it myself and try something at home. So I went on www.amazon.co.uk and tried to search for some manicure kits. Before I saw some amazing photos of 3D nails which some people did at home but it was too much for a day time so I decided to stop on the kit with different colors with brush and pens. I ordered myself this kit by RIO:

 In the kit I found 8 primary colors with a pack of white crystals, gold dust, brush, instructions on how to apply the crystals and how to make some basic patterns on your nails and DVD.
I was very pleased with my purchase and will definitely use it. I tried and did some designs of blue crystaled cross (as I'm supporting Chelsea, so I called it Chelsea manicure) with four white dots and on the rest of my nails I've done black base and gold dust :)

Hope you liked it & wish you lots of cool ideas
for you nail arts and more practice :)
Definitely tru RIO Nail Art!

DRAKE LONDON O2

On Monday I went to the Drake's concert which was on 27th of March in o2 Arena. I really enjoyed the concert and his life performance, but to be very honest with you, if you like to go to a concert and enjoy an amazing live show then you wouldn't really enjoy him. But still:) I love his music, him and YMCMB!

chilling in the box before the concert

makeup organizer

I like things to be organized when it come to personal space such as my room and especially my bathroom and closet. I am a fan of internet shopping and recently I found out about this magic makeup organizer! This organiser helps you to see all your makeup and when you in a rush you don't have to panic and be worried that you won't have something that you will need to complete your look. The acrylic drawer set can be divided on sections such as products for lips, eyes, cheeks/face and brushes.
You can order it of amazon or ebay!
Have a look:

Spring and Exams; Textiles

Hallelujah, hallelujah ..... The beautiful melody started playing in my heart when the sun came out and that is an official Iranian first day of spring and actually it is as the sun came out and put everyone in an amazing mood.

Today in college I've been working on my final piece work for Textiles. I am finally happy with the idea I was developing all that time and ready to get an A*! I would love to show you some photos but indeed I can not before it was send to the examination board, but after the exam and the grade I definitely will!

Here is the photo of my final piece on the winter exam that I had this year;






That is me with my skirt;


And these are the photos of my sketchbook
with development of my ideas for final piece
and exploring the chosen theme: Nature



I hope that these works that I have done will inspire you and give you some ideas for your own works!

I have a big passion for making things and very happy that I choose the Textiles as my subject this year as I have lots of ideas that I want to explore and for that I need to learn the technique.

Also the most amazing thing that I've learned while doing the textiles is that if you enjoy Art and have a talent and the technique in order to produce things, you may also use some fabric, thread of felt in your painting as you work which will make your painting unique and might also help you to explore your idea widely!

:) Enjoy!

Nicholas Kirkwood SPRING/SUMMER 2012

Yes my passion are the high heels... and as I talked about my internship with Kirkwood I'd like to show you some of the gorgeous shoes he has this season.
Some of them are which we could see in the previous season but with slight change to the newer season, which makes it even cooler. Lets have a look:

These are the ones we could see in the autumn collection in 2011,
but with a complete new palet of colours




 This is the classic NK shape of shoes and thats how
the fashionistas spot Kirkwood's pair.
The platform and the shape are very unique.
The NEW PATTERN on the classics is just LOVE 




...and these are the new version of the classics 
as it has a little bow from silk ribbon
NICEEEEE


 This is just a very elegant pair and I think I am in LOVE with it

Work experience at Nicholas Kirkwood summer 2011

Every student in order to get in a good uni and get a nice job needs to do the internship or have some kind of work experience. In some places they even require the resume that you have been working somewhere.

Last summer for 3 weeks Ive been doing an internship with brilliant show designer Nicholas Kirkwood. Ive learned a lot about the group of people you have to work with, paper work and how you fill in all the documents. Also learned the arranging of files in  the fashion world. I worked on 5B Mount Street, there is a shop and the studio where I was working just the next door from the shop. 

The people there are very friendly and will help you any time if you have any questions. I was working from 10 till 6. I got tired... but I also made friends there and had an awesome time getting into such experience and NOW looking forward to a new work experience! As I am really into fashion and all that, I was thinking about doing some sort of job in Grazia magazine as its my FAV or Christie's ....but its very hard to get in and you have to apply a year in advance indeed....

So I'll keep you posted on how it all goes :) If you have any advices let me know!

Here are some pics of Nicholas Kirkwood's boutique on Mount Street :)






The photos were taken from Kirkwood's official web site:

Christian Louboutin 20 Ans.


Yesterday I've been to the park and just out-and-about in center. When I went to have lunch in Selfridges I saw all the shop windows filled in with all the shoes, prints and FACES of Louboutin! I knew that I must go there and have a look, if I didn't go I'd probs cry on the floor and then die as I love Christian for his passion to what he's been doing for a long time and an amazing creations that he has every season!

I got to buy and amazing book of the Louboutin's story and the production process and the photos of old collections of his back in 80th. Also got tattoos and as a present they gave me a little cute bag :)

I was very upset as I could not go to Harvey Nics to take a quick look at Louboutin and was greatly disappointed... But Selfridges gave me a chance at least to enjoy the atmosphere of the Heavenly Kingdom :)

Lets take a quick look at the World According to C.L. xxx


These are the show windows
Beautifully filled with shoes
