Fashion and Beauty in Bali, Indonesia

Summer never ends in the island of the gods.

A wet summer, moist heat  punctuated by rain: it’s hot, very hot! Lazily lounging in the pool. Here is my selection for those who like to travel with few things!    

Picture 1 : An H&M black swimsuit top on a Balinese sarong. A sun protection really easy to apply, Invisible Hydrating Mist Vichy of Capital Soleil SPF 50. Lovely scent, finally a sunscreen with a texture that doesn’t stick!

Fan of light fragrances,

I never go anywhere without one or more perfumes! Pictured above: L’occitane au Brésil, Vitória-Régia (: « the star of waters » is a giant flower from Amazonia). It’s fresh and bloomed like a summer haze : ) 

Other good surprises: the Bodifying Shampoo – Bain Densité of Kérastase Densifique (on the lay out above : on brown sarong and near the H& M bikini with Panther prints). Great care for my super dry hair!

I can’t swim or style my hair without the Masque Spray Multi-Soin Actiliss of Activilong (French ethnic brand). I apply this mask without rinsing. Excellent versatile product.

Addictive Bulgari Omnia Indian Garnet!

By far my favorite scent for months! Euphoric, magical and orange! Original and very sensual bottle (pictured above)! As you may have already read, I loved to madness , Fragrance For Women.

Bulgari Omnia Indian Garnet is happy gourmand fragrance with notes of mandarin, saffron, Indian tuberose, osmanthus and amber. A journey to happiness! Picture above: H&M swimsuit striped on a Balinese sarong.

To soothe, moisturize and nourish the skin of the body,

the Lait Fondant Réparateur Thé vert (Melt-in Body Lotion – Green Tea) of Roger & Gallet: discret smell and velvety texture that quickly melts on the skin. Very lovely in a tropical climate, where just out of the shower, you sweat again! Lol!

Lisbon and surroundings: A Beach in Guincho

Swimming in Guincho at 7-8 p.m.

After a long break at Santini in Caiscas – for the best ice cream in the world ; ) – we stop at one of the small beaches along the coast of Guincho towards Sintra (post to come), for a early evening swim!

The air is crisp and a bit freezy: few people on the beach, less in the icy water and powerful waves. Bad habit, I got used to go to superb desert pristine sandy beaches for miles in Alentejo. That’s why, I avoid the lovely beaches of Guincho crowded with people during the hottest hours.

To go to Guincho from Lisbon, prefer the Marginal road along the ocean than the highway.

Thai Dining Theatre at The Millennium Hilton Bangkok

To be or not to be a foodie?

Time flies (already six and a half years of blogging!) and I feel more more and more gourmet (LOL)! During my (too) short stay in Bangkok, I was invited to a Thai Dining Theatre at the Millennium Hilton Bangkok.   

We start the evening with a cocktail at the Three Sixty Lounge, located in the 32th floor of the hotel, with an impressive view overlooking the Chao Phraya River. I also have a quick look at the roof terrace.

Our table is ready, we go to the Maya restaurant

of Thai specialties. 15 dishes on the menu, but the portions are small (and I skipped the desserts), a kind of “tapas” of Thai cuisine. Between each dish there is a Thai dance.     

In pictures: the Sarong Dance. Sorry foodie friends, my phone’s batteries have dropped me and I could only take very few pictures of the delicious dishes! Yes the food was amazing!         

This dinner was a really nice surprise. Cause usually I’m not fond of dining theatre. So if you stay for a short time in Bangkok and want to do a food tasting, while enjoying a dance show, check out the Maya.
