An Opportunity

Just have been able to rounded up some of the looks I styled for MANGO Fashion Show on last Jakarta Fashion Week. And honestly, I can't help but feel grateful for such an amazing opportunity.

Thanks to MANGO Indonesia.

Today I dream about the new Resort 2011 campaign by Ellery.

I've already written about Ellery once before regarding the beautiful Fall 2011 collection. I was mesmerised by all the beautiful clothes and also the pictures.

Kym Ellery's new collection didn't disappoint anybody - it's perfect just like the last one! I really love every piece of it so I couldn't wait to see the campaign. Here it is - modelled by the stunning Kim Noorda and photographed by Darren McDonald, it couldn't match the collection more!

My favourite parts of the collection are the soft, pastel colours and the structured silhouettes. My favourite look is the one with white flared trousers and that amazing coat.

Have a look at the new campaign and my favourite looks from the collection!

Saturday Recipes - Cheesecakes!

Today I dream about never being late with my recipe post again :)

I'm sorry for the lack of posts this weekend - I was on a little adventure for my Birthday :) Today, I'll show you some really great cheesecake recipes!

I was never that keen on cheesecake back in Poland as we use curd cheese to make it and sometimes it might be a little bit sour and heavy. I love the American style cheesecake though, made with cream cheese, on a base made of crushed biscuits mixed with melted butter. It's so easy and quick to make and really, really tasty.

Salted Caramel & Vanilla Baked Cheesecake

It looks absolutely delicious and I'm sure it tastes even better! Made with ricotta and cream cheese, topped with cream and caramel sauce - can't wait to try it! Get the recipe here!

Strawberry Ricotta Cheesecake

It looks mouthwatering! I have to try this cheesecake made with ricotta cheese and what's interesting about this recipe is that there is no base. Must-try! Find the recipe here!

Repossi Jewellery 2011 Campaign

Today I dream about Repossi's beautiful jewellery.

Repossi is a jewellery company owned by Italian Alberto Repossi. The brand was founded in 1920 by Alberto's grandfather - G. Pietro Repossi. Alberto's daughter, Gaia has been Maison Repossi's artistic director since the age of twenty. This family business with long traditions creates amazing and really special jewellery, so special that Repossi is the official jeweler to the Sovereign Prince of Monaco.

Today I would like to show you the 2011 campaign featuring two fantastic models: Malgosia Bela and Dree Hemingway. The piece I fell in love with is the diamond encrusted ear cuff with lattice made of rose gold - it is perfect! It's also on the list of the 10 most wanted jewellery pieces on Style.com, so it is not only me who loves it.

Lately Gaia collaborated with Alexander Wang to create a line of really fantastic pieces - make sure to check them out on Repossi's website.

Anyway, have a look at the campaign and two of my favourite pieces :)

Amerrymishap Jewellery

Today I dream about this unique jewellery created by Jennifer Hagler, a blogger and jewellery designer.

Her designs are simple, creative and very charming. She makes the beads herself from polymer clay, then she adds spikes, discs and a gold chain and it's ready!

The prices are really tempting me to get a few necklaces instead of just only one plus the choice is really big :)

You can get Jennifer's jewellery from her Etsy store but also make sure to check out her blog which is full of great inspirations. Here's some of my favourite pieces!
