Bridal {Bloom} Must Have Hair

I'm obsessed with bridal hair, up do's, chignon, waterfall, buns up, buns down, braids, loose curls, bangs, no bangs, you name it and I love it...well some of them! You have to be real careful when choosing wedding day hair, do a run through, don't wait til the day-of to experiment, do stick with your personal style, don't do something totally dramatic, do have fun, don't underestimate the importance of how your hair should look, do stay fresh, do't choose a style that is dated uh..spirals are so 90's sorry ladies, do keep it age appropriate and youthful. Let your hair be an extension of your personal style. Happy Hair Day!!!

Love...Nina Fleurina

A {Sweet} Affair: Sweet Style

Several years ago I was introduced to this lovely confection by my friend Judy Humphrey of  Paris Atelier, and I've been in love every since. She's had the pleasure of enjoying them in Paris and I had them at a cute little tea shop in Santa Ana CA, either way I love them and I appreciate her for the very sweet introduction...lol!
The best part is the various ways people have incorporated this sweet little treat into the biggest days of their lives, get engaged, get married and have a baby all with the celebration of this sweet confection. Above I have posted an array of ideas suitable for any occasion. Enjoy the inspiration...

Get French {Kist} !

Last week I created a new fragrance that was inspired by the sun rays of Spring, one of my most pinned boards and the affection my husband and I still have for each other after almost 20 years of marriage.  After all this time, ups and downs {more ups and downs} still kiss like when we first met and that's just one of the things that I love dearly about my husband.

I felt so passionate about my new scent that I changed the name from {KIST} to French{Kist} and it's sooo fitting, with notes of Orange Blossom and Jasmine it's been a big hit for the re-opening of the boutique. Fabulous!

Here's few pics to say get French {KIST} like you've never been kissed before!

Love at first sight...

I read tons of blogs, but only a few I must say are on heavy rotation...check my side bar for my favorite blog reads. Being a self proclaimed helpless romantic, who happens to believe in love at first sight, you know the feeling you get when you try on the perfect pair of glove fitting jeans or the taste of warm fresh baked chocolate chip cookies... ok so the cookies or the jeans may not do it for you but but for me I instantly fell in love with my new favorite blog Gypsy Purple. Her blog is artistic, stylish, cultural and darn right pretty, her pictures inspire a juxtapose of muted french appeal with bold ethnic inspiration and to me this aesthetic is a breath of fresh air just in time for the Fall. I knew I would find something to fall in love with this season and Gypsy Purple is it.

Life in a fanci world!
