My favourite is Pistachio with buttermilk ganache.
What is yours?
Macaroons are my next point of order in the realms of the kitchen. Yes, they are a challenge, a huge challenge. But I am yet to fail (number of attempts do not matter it is whether you achieve the goal) so the outlook is positive.
Yum, is all i shall leave you with
Ciao,
Love Francesca xoxo

I Love Beige,
Remember how there was a time when beige simply dissappeared and was replaced with about a million other terms for "Beige" other than calling it beige?
Ecru, Buff, Mushroom, Ecru, Fawn, Neutral, Off-White, Sand, Taupe, Light-Tan, Camel, Cafe au Lait??, Biscuit??, Oatmeal??
It is fair to say that someone decided Beige was a taboo word of Fashion. I mean the definition is "Light brown colour" what was sooo terribly bad about that?!
I suppose my point to this is that I do love Beige, and i am definately glad that it is an accepted fashion term once more, because beige is so much easier than the previously mentioned terms!
Thank you Celine, Chloe, Etc. for bringing beige back. (and actually calling it beige) :)




Now after reading that, look and say beige. Its one of those words that seems to become less and less a word the more you say it!
Well, this made me smile as I was reading it on "Little girl, Shiny world"(sorry I have not mastered "linking" yet)...So I just had to. Maybe do your's too? The Perfect Saturday morning blogging activity.

Yes, the weather up here is wonderful.







Today, I tried on some shoes, looked in the mirror with the woman fitting me standing beside. and SHOCK HORROR! I was double her size, (height wise) I Am A Giant. So a shoe post seemed in order. I love high heels, I don't need the elongating of the legs thing, or the 'Hey I'm taller now' thing, or well anything that high heels offer, they uplift me, make me feel GAH! AMAZING! so therefor, i wear them. They also make me feel selfconcious about being VERY tall, boyfriend doesn't mind my being taller than him in heels, (only justtt, He is living in Canada for now:( so his opinion doesn't count) friends family, hate it. people where I live. uhh well we won't go there, i don't really want to give too much about that away. (Yes, That bad) So for now I shall wear my highHIGH heels with pride, stand straight, shoulders back and walk on by! :)
ciao, Francesca xoxo

So, I have not posted in a while. I am still trying to get the hang of this blogging, and working 7 days a week in one job you despise and another that is just playing around with friends, you could say inspiration is hard to come by or easily forgotten. So here are some photos that inspire me. I do love pretty trinkets, boudior chic, chanel, (it would not be hard to continue on forever.) So here are some images to help you get more of a feel for me!
Enjoy,
ciao,
Love Francesca. xoxo
