Review: Harajuku Lovers Fragrances: G of the Sea

Today I'm going to talk about the fragrance G of the Sea from the Harajuku Lovers Collection.
The Harajuku lovers collection has 18 fragrances in their range. She has also her own fragrance from her label L.A.M.B. and it's called L.

The Harajuku Lovers Collection is based on the Japanese street fashion and youth culture. The fragrances are recognized by the kawaii or "adorableness" of the packaging. The G in the collection represents Stefani and her four back-up dancers - Love, Angel, Music and Baby.

I already had the previous fragrances in sets from the label and this one, G of the Sea, of course. The only I didn't have are the new fragrance 'Jingle G" and "Super G" (I didn't like the packaging of this one).

G of the Sea is a floral woody musk fragrance.

• Top notes are red apple, wild berries and water lily.
• Middle notes are jasmine, freesia and peony.
• Base notes are woodsy notes, amber and musk.

My opinion about is that it first smell likes citron and afterwards it smells like flowers
It would be great for yourself to wear it on a first date.

Dutchess Fall/Winter 2011

Dutchess is a label for self-conscious women. The inspiration for this collection has Gwen van den Assem found by the traditional tailors and by her customers. She has looked to the special techniques used for suits and the details that make a perfect package

She used satin and wol for the collection which resulted in wearable clothes for self-conscious women. In the atmosphere from the men, it includes a unique wool blend jersey that looks like an old tweed, but falls very smoothly. The colors from this collection include moss green, khaki, gray and rust tones.

The label is sold in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Taiwan, Japan and Scandinavia.

Opening Urban Outfitters Brussels

Thursday I went to the opening of the new Urban Outfitters store in Brussels. It is really a great store. I really liked the interior which was located in an old mansion. I didn't feel that I was in a store, but more in a house. They got everything for men, women, books, shoes and accessories. You also got some free drinks and there was playing a DJ. It was a great evening with great music and drinks.

I'm also featured on Belmodo.tv with my outfit from that evening. So check it out!
