on the top

Ok, sometimes they DO are not confortable, but wearing a beautiful pair of high-heeled shoes, makes all the difference!

Actually, a nifty bag too. They give life to the look... anyone, glamourizing women, growing self esteem!

Sacrifices which worth all efforts... ;)

la beauté n'est pas tout

...mais comme dirait Vinicius de Moraes, qui a écrit 'Garota de Ipanema' (une de plus belles déclarations d'amour déjà faites), entre autres compliments aux dames...

"Les femmes laides, pardonnez-moi, mais la beauté est si fondamentale"

S'il y a quelqu'un que doute qu'au Brésil il y a de belles femmes, voici quelques indices:

- Maria Ieda Vargas (Rio Grande do Sul) et Martha Vasconcellos (Bahia) on rapporté le titre de Miss Univers, en 63 et 69 respectivement;

- La top modèle la plus somptueuse (et riche) au monde est Gisele Bündchen (Rio Grande do Sul);

- Adriana Lima (Bahia), Alessandra Ambrosio (Rio Grande do Sul), Isabeli Fontana (Paraná), Ana Beatriz Barros (Minas Gerais), Fernanda Tavares (Rio Grande do Norte), Caroline Trentini (Rio Grande do Sul), Fernanda Motta (Rio de Janeiro) et Brenda Costa (Rio de Janeiro) figurent parmi les modèles les plus
hot de tous les temps;

 

Bon, si les québécoises sont les plus belles femmes au monde (comme y croient quelques-uns), répondez-moi pour quoi:

1. les deux canadiennes (Karen Diane Baldwin, en 82, et Natalie Glebova, en 2005) qui ont été élues Miss Univers vient de Ontario? (étant que cette dernière est née en Russie, ni même au Canada...);

2. il n'y a que quatre mannequins d'ici connue internationalement? (Alexandra Aubin, qui a débuté à la fin des années 80,
la mignonne Charlotte Le Bon, la rousse Judith Bedard, et Anaïs Pouliot, qui est en lumière maintenant);

3. elles ne figurent pas actuellement sur aucun classement des plus belles (ou sexy) femmes?


Finalement, j'aimerais connaître ou même seulement avoir vu au moins une en personne! Parce que, dans la rue, elles ne sont pas... Il manque quelque chose, peut-être grâce. Par contre, au Brésil, juste dans une visite à la plage de Rio, ou n'importe où à Porto Alegre, c'est assez pour reconnaître toute la beauté brésilienne, sans modestie. On déborde féminité.

gratitude

Maybe because I'm getting old, becoming more mature and wise, then start to see things im a different way... Perhaps also inpired by some movies as Le Scaphandre et le Papillon, Amores Perros, among others we've watched. 

The fact is that, by now,  I strongly feel we should thank for being fine. Only this. In other words: not just realize while bad, sad, or sick, how both pleasant and great is being happy, having good health and peace of mind. Thus, praying heavily to heal as soon as possible, summoning all saints, God and nature.

Life might change so fast... we never know. So, I've thought about that, when well. Furthermore, I'm very grateful when I can smile freely, easily, with no pain, no ill(ness). And then, remind all of them (that are always there), spellbound by beauty of life, possibility of changes... as butterflies one.

Thanks!

fleurs-de-lis

(ou "la vengeance" au post 'du bonbon') 

En pensant d'être trop injuste laisser les femmes à côte d'un classement concernant la beauté, voici mon palmarès des plus belles filles du Québec, en ordre alphabétique:

Catherine De Léan - un mélange de Juliette Binoche et sa homonyme Catherine Zeta-Jones
Catherine Renaud - une rousse;
Ève Duranceau - des traits félins;
Evelyne Brochu - la Winona Ryder québécoise;
Évelyne de la Chenelière - entre Claire Forlani et Sofia Coppola, une beauté dramaturgique et sophistiquée;
Isabelle Blais - des taches de rousseur charmantes;
Julie Perreault -  des fins traits; 
Karine Vanasse - la Alice Braga d'ici;
Lucie Laurier - la Penélope Cruz made in Quebec;
Magalie-Lépine-Blondeau - évoque pas mal la top model Christy Turlington;
Marie-Josée Croze - une beauté international

*Sophie Nélisse- une petite "extra", trop jeune encore... Toutefois, c'est 'la promesse' pour l'avenir, un peu comme Anna Chlumsky de My Girl (L'Été de mes onze ans)

du bonbon!

Voici mon classement personnel des dix plus beaux bonhommes 'made in Quebec'*:

(le
palmarès est en ordre alphabétique)

- Claude Legault (le George Clooney québécois)
- Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge (un diamant
brut)
- Jean L'Italien (le motard)
- Kevin Parent (le musicien)
- Luc Picard (le mature)
- Marc-André Grondin (un jeunet Johnny Depp à la française)
- Patrice Roy (l'intellectuel)
- Sébastien Ricard (le Loco Locass
Batlam)
- Stéphane Rousseau (l'invasor barbare)
- Steve Laplante (un peu comme un Rodrigo Santoro d'ici)

Comme d'habitude, je ne remarque pas tellement les joueurs - ni de soccer (au Brésil), encore moins ceux-ci de hockey. Bien que je sais que il y a des bels hommes dans les arénas, ce n'est pas vraiment mon genre.

*avant les années 80, car je préfère les gars plus vieux - autrement dit: d'âge moyen. Mais, comme en français il y a toujours une exception, voilà: dans ce cas-ci, c'est le Monsieur "C.R.A.Z.Y.", Marc-André Grondin (en fait, plus récemment, M. Dumont), qui arrive à sa trentaine seulement en 2014.   

Ainsi, le jeune Maxime Dumontier ira attendre encore... mais il sera là, bien sûr!

ice lovers

Ice skating: one of the most romantic activities which can be done in couple. Without a doubt.

Hand-in-hand, moving and hanging together... And if one doesn't know how to do it duly, no problem: the other is there, close, to help!

Snow is another important
ingredient. Charming. Flakes falling achieve this dreamy moment, which seems a movie scene (at least, that's how I feel ourselves while on a rink!). It's beautiful! I'm very glad we can practice it a lot, in duo. Partners on ice as well.

So cute!  I love it

winter memories

photo: Fanny Perret
We'll never forget the first snowstorm we witness... Freezing, wet, white, it's something! At the same time, it may be awesome for who is not used to. Become beautiful to foreign eyes... A romantic souvenir, even if chaotic.

All novelties turn us into a kid. That is wonderful, although all damage and trouble caused by this worst blizzard occured in Montreal area in December.

a breath of air

The time comes, even for those who we have thought be immortal.

Oscar Niemeyer, one of the last communists, died leaving much more than his architectural curves, embellishing cities (as the Contemporary Art Museum in Niterói, the Copan Building in São Paulo, the French Communist Party Headquarters,  in Paris, the
Mondadori headquarters in Milan, among other postcards...), or "simply" being an entire one, in the case of Brasília. These concrete symbols have another implicit message, that life must be enjoyed, even if it is not fair.

This is exactly what he did during his almost 105 years in this world.

gorgeous silver

Once, I asked my mother why she had her hair dyed. Then, I suggested her to leave it natural, grey. Finally, she said to do that with my own hair, by myself, when graying start on me.

Not at that moment, but, now, I undertand her being on the defensive. It's a delicate situation for many women witnessing their hair lose colour; thus, being obligate to dye hair constantly. Many, in fact, the majority, opt for keeping their young hues artificially.

Alternatively, I honestly feel that ladies as Françoise Hardy, Carmen Dell’Orefice, Jamie Lee Curtis, Helen Mirren, Vanessa Redgrave, and last but not least, Meryl Streep (as Miranda Priestly, in The Devil Wears Prada), are glamorous in the way they are: both old and chic.

Their look, a choise, despite thousands of advertisings selling hair dye, as I see it, means a victory, an embrace of the natural changes, an acceptance of lifecycle. Without a doubt, it's an audacious one.

Furthermore, of course, having beautiful gray hair also requires special cares - expensive too! Olden with vanity, a challenge!

Mine, in a few years. Decided!

loving

Stop the habit of biting fingernails... 

A proof of love! 

(mainly the self one) 

It's a matter of vanity and pride, a sign of prosperity.

With zip, pluck, pretty claws!

c'est clair

Il est possible de voir l'amour par les yeux (de l'autre puis par les tiens).

C'est la beauté du regard. Tant doux...
 
Ça tout dit! Il vaut mille mots.

C'est évident, c'est pour de vrai, c'est fort, c'est beau... c'est l'amour.

our time

I was very excited while seeing the London 2012 Olympic Games Closing Ceremony. The participation of many Brazilian celebrities as Seu Jorge, Marisa Monte, Pelé and (my friend) BNegão touched me, I confess.

From now, I hope we'll do a good job, administrating everything related to Olympic Games in a good way until 2016.

Rio have everything to achieve it with its natural beauty, our criativity and human warmth. Its success is within our reach. 

However (and unfortunately), I have my doubts...

not having a clue

What is necessary to be considered extraordinary? Being a "pitoune", a model wife, an excellent professional, a good lay?! Eventually, the best mother of all as well?!

Ok, I've never been a "tchutchuca" (besides never have been interested of...). That is not to say, though, I am ugly or even I have uglified. Furthermore, no one had never complained before!

Of course my body is not the same I used to have ten years ago, but comparing with other women of my age, I'm pretty ok. It's true. After all, the older you get, the better you get... like wine.

Loving to cook, changing for good our lives, the home one too... As a latin woman, taking care exceptionally of my man; moreover, I can also say: as nobody else! Additionally (not to mention!), having a dirty slut in bed is not a bad idea for men, is it?! 

(* Is it yet not enough?)

Give somebody an inch and they will take a mile... They are never satisfied. By the way, grass is always greener on the other side.

A look or a shape bad joke, an awkwardly placed word as a comparision to another one, or complimenting exs (particularly on their appearance)... Well, sometimes men can be both very ungreatful and nasty. Unfortunatelly.

Once I take past contrasts as examples, more certain I am they usually are pampered rebels without a cause.

"Ordinary"... ?! So are YOU (and all of them), too! Sorry, but none are a mannequin (or even a standard: in this case, unhealthy thinness due to a regular use of drugs, hairy pussy, or large sagging breasts - typical of North Americans). 

So, I can say loud and clear, and in plain Portuguese : EU SOU MAIS EU! (exactly the way I am... with my 'bed room' eyes, dark curly hair, a nonsmoker smile, my skilled little mouth without bad breath, a scared little tummy, my tanned "snake" skin, a beauty spots constellation, my old and faded tattoos, nails painted, a nice pair for foot fetishism, firm medium sized natural tits, athletic legs, and a Brazilian wax and ass)

the man's ultimate illusion

Marylin Monroe, a diva. One of the prettiest women we know.

Even almost fifty years since her death (on August 5, 1962), she is usually still taken as a model of beauty... (in the bargain: she was crowned best beach body of all time!)

Nevertheless, (even her, majestic!) she had a little tummy.

It's not a complaint about her shape, NOT AT ALL! I just want to illustrate how cruel the current esthetic patterns/demands may be.

Marylin is
unquestionably gorgeous, "imperfect" as she was.

Nowadays, perfect women exist only in magazines covers and TV or cinema screens. On the streets and at home, with no Photoshop or After Effect, make-up or coiffeur, dressed as usual, we are all normal people, with some "defects".

Perfection is only both in our dreams, or expectations. The reality is other, though.

And David Burns, the noted best-seller psychiatrist, confirm that, continuing this post title, one of his quotes about perfection (the man's ultimate illusion), with: "It simply doesn't exist in the universe.... If you are a perfectionist, you are guaranteed to be a loser in whatever you do".

___________________________________________________________

By the way, this same (his) theory, I've applied for love.

(after all, "Men: can't live with them, can't live without them")

il y a cinq mois...



Et, depuis lors, tout a changé.

À partir de ce moment-là, nos vies sont plus fleuries et aussi pleines de bonheur.

À la fin, c'est à quoi ça sert, l'amour... (en paraphrasant Édith Piaf)

making me thin


I’m stubborn.

My aim is loose more than 10kg. It is not a impossible goal since I'm working out hard.

One hour of located gym, and another of running in addition of 90 minutes on a bicycle, riding it quickly. Is it enough? I hope so…

In about three months I wish being ready for another summer, as I’ve been since I was born.

I’m conscious that nowadays is more difficult to slim than when I was a teenager... despite, I’ve never been fat. So, it’s clear the difficulties of getting it.

Nevertheless, I’m focused.

simple enough secret


As a woman, sometimes all necessary (or the best) is cut the hair, have the nails done and being shaved. Alongside, for sure a pretty make up and nice clothes (bought as a bargain in some sale) helps.

To improve any both feminine mood and self-esteem, these cunnings are essential. Likewise, it's a forward kind solution against our PMT (Premenstrual Tension) symptoms. After all, no one of us will be quite ok without feel ourselves at least a little beautiful.

Vanity... It’s natural (besides an effective expensive resorts).

não sei o que acontece...


Bebês e japoneses são tão lindinhos enquanto pequeno, pena que crescem... Na boa, deve ter, mas eu não conheço UM japonês homem adulto realmente gato.

Mulher sim, existe. Há, inclusive, todo um fetiche acerca das gueixas, orientais em geral - seja por sua beleza excêntrica, exótica, ou por sua submissão, comportamento esse que agrada a muitos... Mas homem nipônico, ou nissei, sansei, yonsei, gossei... não sei, de fato.

De repente, quanto mais misturado, maiores as chances da receita dar certo... Lamento, pois, uma vez que seus filhotes nascem agraciados, poderiam eles envelhecer assim também! Quando e por que isso acontece? Onde se perdem belos traços?

out


Concordo com o poeta Vinícius quanto ao que é fundamental, mas minha prioridade é outra! Imagine euzinha no meio de um monte de Barbie girls... Como eu me senti? Deslocada, obviamente. Não pela suprema estética que me falta, mas pela ausência de conteúdo e excesso de futilidade naquelas cabecinhas ocas e enfeitadas (uma coisa compensa a outra nesses casos).

Corações bons, talvez, mas desconfio de quem não sabe discutir o mínimo sobre assuntos atuais - sejam políticos, esportivos, de economia, literatura etc. A maioria dos homens não liga para essa limitação, mas eu detestaria ser igual, qualificada somente por minhas curvas, desejada principalmente para a cama, sendo companhia rasa, efêmera, de preferência calada. Não invejo os olhares masculinos, tampouco seu interesse pelo tipo. Tenho muito mais a acrescentar a esse mundo, argumentos a dar, bastante a ouvir e aprender, compartilhar. Ser modelo de beleza é bacana, mas prefiro servir de referência além físico.

Digo isso, mas nunca fui a baranga do prédio, embora o título da ‘Rainha da Escola’ tenha me faltado (ok, admito já ter sido Brotinho da praia em que veraneava, onde acontece um famoso concurso no Rio Grande do Sul - onde essas competições são comuns, dada a mistura étnica que deu certo por lá). Fico mais orgulhosa por ter me destacado durante anos como a mais inteligente da classe, a melhor jogadora de vôlei - popular de outro jeito, ao meu modo, cheia de boas notas e medalhas.

Sem comparações... Nada contra as beldades. Elas são interessantíssimas, tem público e o seu valor. Merecem ser contempladas, nasceram para isso. Beleza é uma possibilidade, abre portas (e as pernas). Conviveria fácil até, mas Casa Bonita, para mim, just for business, no backstage, botando ordem no galinheiro, coordenando as rolinhas. Infelizmente hoje, nesse meio, o título de jornalista vai na inércia da ocupação "modelo, manequim, apresentadora"... feio isso, pois desqualifica a classe acadêmica.

Tô fora! Meus padrões de perfeição rondam outras vizinhanças.
