Hey hey everybody!
For those who are following my twitter I have mentioned 2 weeks before that was going to Paris for a fashion BtoB exhibition, called Who's Next. At this event different brands from all over the world came to present their Spring/Summer 2011 collection. So, obviously there were a lot of buyers and people from the industry.

I attended this event with my friend Mikaella who's working for a french brand called Lola. It was nice to be there, I saw a lot of brands that I didn't know before :) shame on me... :) also it was interesting to see the different tactics that companies used to atract people to come to their booth!..the food was also not so bad:)
The exhibition ended at 7pm. After , outside we had like an after-exhibion party, with cocktails (hmmm:)... dj and stylish people!
Me and Mikaella was so tired that we preferred to go home...I mean to our friend's home Anna.
We stayed at home 1-2hours, speaking drinking and enjoying beeing together and after went for a dinner in Marrais, one of my favorite area in Paris...
We spent a wonderful evening! It is always nice to mix pleasure with work:)

Fashion Follies in Lille!!!

















Hello everybody,

Yesterday me and my friend Veronika went to Lille, a small city in the North of France, 1h by car from Brussels.
One week before I read in ELLE that during 3 days , in Lille would take place several Fashion events, showrooms, fashion parties....so without hesitating we decided to go!
just...nothing went like we planned:)....instead of arriving in Lille in the morning, we were there around 4-5pm, basically the main fashion shows were finished so we went in the center to discover the city.
I have been before in Lille, but all my memories was that it was a small sweet city but nothing special.
This time, I loved it! Without knowing we arrived to a pedestrian shopping area which led us to the ''Vieux Lille''- the ''Old Lille''.
The Old Lille is so beautiful, with such cute small houses like in a cartoon, with trendy shops and stylish bars.
Wish I could have seen everything but we were too tired to do all visiting in one day, so we decided to definitely come back soon to finish what we began.
Even if I didn't menage to see the fashion show , I really enjoyed my day...and I was inspired by this city:)

Hope everybody had a wonderful weekend. I wish you a nice week full of positive things , fun and joy!

Shoes paradize






Hi guys!!
Wanted to share with these picture of the new Louboutin's shop opened  at the Shoe Galleries, Selfridges, London.
''Inspired by the designer’s own personal space, the Christian Louboutin apartment is both sumptuous and seductive, inviting you to kick off your shoes, as much as try a pair on.
The backdrop to the apartment is a trompe l’oeil wall offering an intimate portrait of Christian through family photographs and personal artefacts collected from his extensive travels. A staircase leading nowhere captures the drama and anticipation of what might lie beyond and a red carpet takes centre stage throughout. Middle-Eastern tiles also give an insight into Christian’s passions and influences.
During your visit you'll be treated like royalty, including having your chosen shoes brought to you on a customised trolley.''
I took this description and the pictures from Selfrindges facebook page. I think the concept of the store is perfect. It makes every woman feel special and important!

 What can I say more, Louboutin, you are my dream:)!!!

LEVI'S Curve ID



Hello my dear readers!!!

Like all of you know, the denim fever continues in 2011! yeeesss denim shorts, shirts, jeans ...I think denim gives confidence, comfort, power and sexiness to everybody women or men.
I have my best friend Kamelia working at Levi Strauss, so I am very lucky to have a lot of Levis items:) Love it!!!
I would like to share with you the new Jeans that Levis launched this Summer/Autumn, called Curve ID.
It is a new line of custom fit jeans made to fit the curve of a woman’s body.
''The new line, Levi’s® Curve ID, utilizes a revolutionary fit system based on shape, not size and was created as a result of studying more than 60,000 body scans and listening to women around the world of all shapes and sizes''.
Through this research, Levi’s® designers created a new approach to measuring a woman’s body and identified three distinct body types that account for 80 percent of women’s shapes universally. The three Levi’s® Curve ID fits are based on these universal body types.
Slight Curve – designed to celebrate straight figures
Demi Curve – designed to fit even proportions
Bold Curvedesigned to honor genuine curves

In an effort to further understand women’s fit frustration, Levi Strauss & Co. conducted a global survey. Revealing survey findings include:
  • More than half of women (54 percent) try on at least 10 pairs of jeans to find one pair they would buy.
  • Most women (87 percent) wish they could find jeans that fit better than the ones they own.
  • Most women (67 percent) believe that jeans are designed for women with “ideal” figures.
  • Very few women (28 percent) believe that jeans are designed to fit their bodies.''

It is interesting,aahhh?!:))

I went last week in Levi's store here in Brussels, and bought one of Curve ID jeans:) They fit me perfectly!!!

Welcome back baby!

Hey hey everybody!:)
It's been a long time since I didn't post anything...a lot of things happenned...
During this time I moved from Brussels to London, and after several month moved back (from London to Brussels)..:)
Now am enjoying living in Brussels and travelling home whenever I can.
I think I will not write just about fashion from now on...but in general about differents things that will capture my eyes:)...Fashion is everywhere...so lets discover it together!
I don't remember where I found the picture below...but I like the rock-princess-glamourous look.... the skirt reminds me when I was 13, I had one similar..I like how it matches with the leather jacket and the accessories..it's like an angel-demon look:)...and it's one of my favorite one.
And you, what do you think about it?...is it more for a day time or for a party?...Personally I think for both!






Kisses to everybory and welcome back on Memories of a Princess.

Moscow!

Hey hey!!
Hope you spent a wonderful weekend and are ready now for a new week of work:)
As I didn't put any post this summer...I decided to show you today my trip to Russia from July 2009! My mother is russian so I have a very strong emotional link with this country. I love it and hate it in the same time! When I was there...after some time I wanted to come back in Europe...when I am in Europe I want to come back in Russia:)...crazy..ah?!
The main reason of this trip was the marriage of one of the best friends of my brother...who is also like a brother to me...he's name is Boris.
So me, my brother and other good friends came to Moscow from all corners of the world:) It was so nice to see everybody cause we didn't see each other one year or maybe more...
There are a lot of beautiful places to visit it Moscow...like the Red Square, the ''
Poklonnaya hill'', ..in gerenal it's so different from Europe..the architecture..the atmothphere ..that everything that you see there it's new and interesting... Usually in Moscow the weather is like in Brussels...it's not very hot and it's raining very often...this time it was amayzing...may be even too warm for me... So the only thing that I could possibly wear to feel good..is...nothing:).. But..as I am a person who loves fashion and clothes I couldn't choose this option.:)...I wore one of my favorite dresses from Pepe Jeans ...it is very confortable...sweet&sexy in the same time! I wear this dress also in winter with black tight, leather jacket, sometime with high hills, some time with low boots...


( my brother and I)



( wearing Pepe Jeans dress, Jonak shoes, Mango bag, Urban Outfitters ear ring)

And this is what I wore the second day I think (don't remember) . I love hats and jackets. A jacket gives me confidence and posture. A hat - makes me feel more ''bad girl'':)...I think, a hat can make a simple outfit to look stylish..it gives it a personality...Hopefully my mom also loves hats...so I can borrow from her:)


(me and my brother again. wearing: hat- don't remember the brand,sorry,Mango- jacket, blouse, belt, bag, Levis shorts, Jonak shoes)




Just came back from a conference based on the subject " How to buy or sell a business''. It was very inspiring and interesting. I am glad that I went there. But felt a bit unconfortable cause there were just men (50-65 years old)...and me (25) almost the only ''woman'' in the room..standing in a corner...trying to seem confident...anyway...I was smyling to them from time to time ..so it went well:)

It's 00h05 here, feeling a bit tired...!
I'll post these days some other pictures from Moscow and also photos from Saint Petersburg.
If you'll have one day the opportunity to go to Russia, please go to Saint Petersbourg...you will not regret it!

ok...feel that my eyes will close in any minute:))
kiss kiss everybody and talk to you soon!
Julia
