It´s here, the summer, the beach, the hours...


1.)What to Read:
Recipes by Gywneth Palltrow in "My Father´s Favourites" in tribute to her father who died in 2002.

2.)What to Watch:
"A Summer Place" is a film from 1959 and directed by Delmer Daves and played by Richard Egan, Dorothy McGuire and Sandra Dee. I specially love the landscapes and the lovely houses in New Scotland. The original soundtrack was created by Percy Faith and is fabulous. The story is about a self-made businessman rekindles a romance with a former flame while their two teenage children begin a romance of their own with drastic consequences for both couples.

{Fairytale}

What I can say this up to the greatest creator of our times? I think anything would suffice. When I saw the collection in style.com I lost my breath ... An unattainable fairy tale story, beautiful and magical creation. Magic is Elie Saab, he is Magic.

 I'm already in the forest with the queen of the fairies.

{Maxima, Ten Points}

She is beutiful and fresh. I think she is around 40 but her smile if of a teenager. I like how she usually looks. And in the wedding of Monaco I give her the ten points, absolutly perfect.
             In the religious ceremony at the palace she choosed a rafia pamela. I think she was very elegant and lovely.
Princess Maxima Prince Willem Alexander of the Netherlands and Princess Maxima of the Netherlands attend the religious ceremony of the Royal Wedding of Prince Albert II of Monaco to Princess Charlene of Monaco in the main courtyard at the Prince's Palace on July 2, 2011 in Monaco. The Roman-Catholic ceremony follows the civil wedding which was held in the Throne Room of the Prince's Palace of Monaco on July 1. With her marriage to the head of state of the Principality of Monaco, Charlene Wittstock has become Princess consort of Monaco and gains the title, Princess Charlene of Monaco. Celebrations including concerts and firework displays are being held across several days, attended by a guest list of global celebrities and heads of state.
And in the party at the Opera she weared this beutiful white cocktail dress:
