Hi Gals!

I´ve already told you how much I admire Isabela Capeto´s work – she is a reference to me. She is one of the most important stylists nowadays in Brazil, and abroad she´s also a blast. Her work is about art and design…and the awesome visual impact created with embroideries and handmade compositions! Gorgeous! I think her clothes art pieces!

Well, yesterday I had the opportunity to meet her in person, and it was really great to know a little bit about the production and developing process, her history and everything else about her. I love to listen and learn!!

Visit her website, it´s gorgeous! www.isabelacapeto.com.br

I hope I´m healthy for a long time, so I´ll get there too…

Big kiss! Have a wonderful weekend!!

I’m happy as a child….my Blythe arrived yesterday (hubby gift) and I’m digging her details, the eye changing color technology, the accessories….and everything about her – dynamite! I’m in love with all Blythes.

Now I need your help: we must find a name for her! Send me your ideas, suggestions…cute names, ok? I’ll love it! She’ll be our loyal friend; and she’ll be here in some posts…

Girls! Look, I just came back from my kitchen (tons of things to clean) and I couldn’t resist: here’s my special lunch (actually it’s quite simple) I made to my hubby and daughters. I’m so happy; usually I make it all wrong…

Congrio-rosa (a Brazilian fish – in English its name is Pink Cusk-eel) with orange sauce and nuts…yummy!!!

Hi Gals!

Having a diary is again in our days… and it’s about it I write a little bit, after making two of them (client orders) – I loved it!!! And I wanna have my own…

To write is soooo good, I think it’s a therapy – you can express your feelings…without paying, or listening or being afraid. Besides, it must be very nice reading it again, laugh about it; remember and learn with our mistakes too.

If you still don’t have yours (just like me), it’s a great opportunity to start! Who knows, maybe we also find out other talents – such as poetry and other stuff.

To order your diary: contato(at)chria(dot)com(dot)br.

xx  have a great weekend!!

Below, some pages of Frida Kahlo’s diary – besides writing, she also draw….a real art expression!

Hello!

In all visits I make to my clients, I love to watch some details which look like art …. See the first photo and these wooden supports – if they weren’t supports, they could be art installations…while walking among them, what I felt was amazing! Now, look at the second photo (over the metal structure)….did the structure resist my heavy weight?? Hahahaha …Is this glamour??

We are a webstore and we seek being closer and closer from people from Brazil and abroad…and it’s an amazing job which gave me the opportunity to know the blog world; and make great and strong friendships – love it! Although, some day I’d like to realize an old dream of mine: to have a store, in a little and lovely house, with enough room to have a coffee with friends – art classes – and musical and artistic presentations. It would be amazing…..this dream is my new imaginary friend…hahaha

Well dear friends (with whom I also share my secrets)…I put a little of all this in our new webstore Chria for You – Chria’s Store. I hope you enjoy

I’m renewing some pages, with new drafts and a lot of surprises…and soon the English webstore will also be renewed!

Hi gals!

Who could tell that our little Dudu would show up here…the king of the Dudus (literally)…..Bia Micele, the Dudu contest winner, sent this lively photo; and we loved it! The king of the Dudus is now also a Chria’s character! Who won’t remember it??

xo xo xo girls and xxxxxxxxx Bia! Lovely lovely….

Gals! Look what a sweetie is growing in my balcony…I have this orchid for years and, out of the blue, it blooms – gorgeous!!! I can’t take care of flowers, but I love them! So, this is a gift to you; and I wish you all a blooming week…with a lot of success and great things happening….I wish every flower-bud is something fantastic you’ll get…

Hello girls!

Believe me, it was very very hard for us to choose the winner Dudu…all cakes were very creative and well done. We noticed every detail, how carefully they were made (visual). Congrats to all girls who sent us the pictures!!!! Love love it!!!

And the Winner Dudu was made by Bia Micele, from São Paulo – Brazil. Her blog is www.salvesimpatia.com.br and it´s full of sweet and cute stuff! Bia, thanks for participating and congrats for your originality, details and composition.

What called our attention was the little history created about it – where a character (I imagine it´s Dudu, the little bear) was part of the cake…it looked like a home, with a garden, the little bug bringing good luck and a blue sky…a history for a lively Dudu!! Bia, your presents leave Blumenau tomorrow!!!

I regret I didn´t ask you all to send me your Dudu´s, so I could taste them all!!!! There were sweet Dudus, salty Dudus, well…a lot of different recipes. We even had a lovely Canadian Dudu, we had sophisticated Dudus – all gorgeous!!! Thanks to you all, I loved having you with me in this contest…and I hope I can count on you for the next one!!

Huge kisses!

Chris from Chria, Alfredo Lindner, Graciane, Amanda, Michelle, Laura, Cristina and Tatiane.
