L’Oréal Collection Privée – Color Riche

The L’Oreal ad featuring their ambassadors is a treat and a rare sight with all these beautiful women from all over the world at their very best gathered in one frame snapped by photographer Norman Jean Roy.

We have actresses Julianne Moore, Freida Pinto, Jane Fonda, Eva Longoria, Sonam Kapoor, Aimee Mullins, Fan Bing Bing and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Models Doutzen Kroes and Liya Kebede…and last but not least, our very own frenchies Ines de La Fressange and Leila Bekhti.

The Color Riche Collection privée lipstick and matching nail lacquers…Love these products with neutral shades after neon make up has been splashed all over lately.

They are very easy to wear on a daily basis such as nude, beige, creme pink, prune…and also pocket-friendly!

My personal favorites are the shades by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Leila Bekhti !

Manish Arora Summer\Spring ’14 – Paris FashionWeek

Paris Fashion Week is behind us but I wanted to share with you my ‘Manish Arora’s experience’ for upcoming Spring-Summer trends.

“Athletic sportswear meets the independent female spirit of the roaring twenties. Drop-waisted flapper silhouettes are re-imagined in sporty jersey and french terry in a juicy palette of banana yellow, sherbert pink, fuschia and mint green; updating the original party girls of the Charleston era for the 21st century.”

Art deco accents punctuate the collection from fruit-adorned jewellery recalling Josephine Baker’s bananas to psychedelic prints on waterproof parkas. Armfuls of fluorescent bead bangles transport us, paired with club kid backpacks, to childhood. We also noticed textured sequin sweatshirts, embroidered borders and sporty shoelaces – that appear on the debut collection of Manish Arora’s shoes – complete with signature pink heart sole.

Meanwhile here are some of our picks from this collection and some pictures of the pop-up store…also feel free to leave a comment, feedback, or your personal favorite below.

TheInsiderPost.com was invited to the prestigious Annual Research Conference ’13 gathering brilliant minds, students and searchers, doctors and professors in several fields, and Nobel Laureates amongst other…in order to brainstorm about selected issues.

We arrive at the Qatar National Convention Center, first stop at the registration desk to collect our accreditation, next security and heading towards the opening plenary with an inspiring introduction by Sheikha Mozah, chairperson of Qatar Foundation.

We learn that under this program, annual amounts are set aside for priority areas already identified: enhancing the research and the experimentation of these areas.

This year, conferences will be divided into four topics which will be debated simultaneously in four separate locations within QNCC :

 -Energy and Environment

-Computing and Information technology

-Health

-Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities

As much as I would have liked to attend to all conferences, physically it was just impossible and I had to choose a topic and stick to it for the rest of the event….And the winner is…Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities (no surprises I guess)

ARC 13 Social
ARC 13 Social

During this two-day event, the topic above will be the framework for addressing issues such as:

– the balanced participation of women and men in decision-making.

– challenges and opportunities for social sciences in Gulf region.

– how to motivate the younger generation in considering and engaging in a specific career, science for instance, in order to build a knowledged society.

– Maintaining authenticity, language and culture through these changes.

The conference concluded with a summary of the principals ideas and an award ceremony during the closing dinner.

Victoria Beckham A\W ’13 – Selection

VB A\W ’13 – Selection

“Exploring how to evolve my signature aesthetic has been the key focus for Autumn/Winter,” reflected Victoria Beckham of her Autumn collection.

Combining enhanced volumes with new restrained outlines has allowed me to push my silhouette even further. Reflection, texture and simplicity in design were my starting points – and I have strived to keep true to the essence of the line while incorporating new finishes and fabrics showcasing the quintessentially British heritage materials of tweed, plaid and herringbone”

Here are our favorite pieces from this Victoria Beckham’s collection straight from the runway including the checked coat, pencil skirts, and our fav tuxedo jumpsuit…Which one(s) do you like?
