A Million Things To Love: May 2015

I love modern architecture, in both its simple structure and its more complex style. Today we're looking at a Brazilian project that to me seems perfect. Not sure why Ii love it so much but it was a love at first sight.

Fair to say i would add hell lotta blinds to this place ( a girl needs her privacy) but there's something in those straight lines and amazing location that drives me wild.

Should I mention the pool - I think I should mention the pool. Guess learning how to swim should be on my bucket list so having a quasi Olympic swimming pool in my front yard would help.

That's an amazing sky! Imagine waking up to this everyday!

Being an European woman doesn't help much with my Asian cuisine so I tend to focus more on the Mediterranean style of cooking but ( cause there's quite a big but) I am absolutely infatuated with kimchi ( especially when served with other delicious things).

Kimchi (김치; pronounced /ˈkɪmtʃi/, Korean pronunciation: [kimtɕʰi]), also spelled gimchi, kimchee, or kim chee, is a traditional fermented Korean dish, made of vegetables with varied seasonings. Kimchi may also refer to unfermented vegetable dishes. There are hundreds of varieties of kimchi, made with a main vegetable ingredient such as napa cabbage, radish, green onion or cucumber.

So basically kimchi is pickled cabbage and other vegetables, all spicy and yummy. If I add that most of the Korean dramas tempt us with this is dish I guess my point is made!

Kimchi is also served inside of dishes not only as a side dish

Yummy, right?

So tell me lovelies. have you tried kimchi? And what other Korean dish would you suggest me to try?

My paradise is a wonderfull garden with a hidden library and a pina colada ( even better if served by a handsome hunk, but that's optional). I've been surounded by flowers all my life and I can still feel the sent of peonies and dragonflowers that my nan used to have in her garden.

Soft cocktails are perfect to be served in the garden!

Its so strange nowadays to see them in another light always rediscovering them either in a bouquet of daysies given by my loved ones or a bunch of roses bought for the dinner I'm about to serve. Flowers are addictive and we shall talk about them so many times on a million things to love (as I love them with all my heart).

Today I give you soft colored roses to keep you happy all day long!

Home is where your heart is and where your flowers bloom!

So tell me lovelies, what are you favorite type of flowers?

Add stripes to your wedding cake to make it look more elegant

Everyone loves weddings and I should admit (finally) that I am a huge softy for chic weddings. Most of you guys already know that I am the editor of FashionBride and it will come as no surprise that my love for weddings will reflect in my blog.

Today i was thinking of looking for inspiration and find it in the soft petals of pink peonies, wild flowers and a touch of rose wine. All topped with a touch of pink to keep in the something borrowed something blue atmosphere.
