Bonjour octobre

Bonjour Ladies,

Long time no see!
Last time I posted 4 month ago so season changed, our skincare products changed
and I guess everyone missed summer already…  (hope it’s not only me)

In Japan, actually many typhoon came so rained a lot but after typhoon
warm sun came out so surprisingly, it not cold as usual.

 

 

Since, middle of first corona big wave, I was stressed bc can’t go out like before.
Thus, I restart to do Yoga for my mental and body again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is part of my yoga session.
If you are curious, check it ✔️

When I do yoga, I don’t think anything. Instead, I feel what my body need and want.
So sometimes I move my body the way I feel just comfortable.

There are so many merit to do Yoga.
——————————————————————————-
・Refresh your mind
・ less injure
・good for your health
・nice opportunity to get to know yourself
——————————————————————————–

When you try Yoga, you’ll notice how beautiful you are and world that you live.
and maybe you want to be nice to yourself, others and to our nature.

BEAUTY IN ARTS

There’re many beauties in various arts. Since a long time ago, women are as a part of arts. A lot of painters are attracted by the beauty in women.
At this time, I’m gonna introduce the beautiful women in paintings!

ヴィーナスの誕生 サンドロ•ボッティチェリ

ルネサンスの時代の象徴となった[ヴィーナスの誕生] ルネサンス以前は裸体は人を墜落させるものとしてタブー視されていました。徐々にキリスト教以外の異教徒的な作品も描かれるようになりました。

眠るヴィーナス ジョルジョーネ 

西洋絵画の中でもよく取り上げれるテーマの横たわる裸婦を初めて描いたのがジョルジョーネでした。それまでは立ち姿のヴィーナスが描かれていましたが、神話的でない横たわる裸婦を描き、後世の画家に影響を与えました。ジョルジョーネは30代半ばで亡くなり、この絵はティツィアーノの引き継がれ、完成されました。

ウルビーノのヴィーナス ティツィアーノ

ティツィアーノはジョルジョーネと同じくジョヴァンニ • ベリーニの弟子でした。2人はヴェネツィアで人気があり、ライバル関係であったと言われています。ヴェネツィア派では有名なティツィアーノですが、この時代は現実にいる女性のヌードを描く事はタブーとされていました。こちらの絵画の女性はヴィーナスですが、のちにマネの描く[オリンピア]などの女性ヌードの手本になりました。

オランピア エドゥアール•マネ

こちらの裸婦像は神話の登場人物ではなく、裸で横わる高級娼婦を描きました。この作品は女性ヌードは神話の女神という西洋絵画の掟を破り、物議を醸した作品です。

このように女性の美は何百年の間、画家を虜にしてきた永遠のテーマです。

Heart breaking memories

Hello guys,
Today is not a day in June but lemme just post about pride month and recent movement for BLM.

It was such a meaningful month for all of us.

Firstly, did you know JUNE is a PRODE MOMTH? And if you know, do you know why it’s on JUNE?

For the first question, the answer is; Pride moth means the promotion of the self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people as a social group. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most LGBT rights movements. (According to the wiki)


For the second question, all of you, please go watch a Netflix movie, “The Death and Life of Marsha P. Johnson”. It’s not a long boring documentary. It’s a short, well constructed story with facts and mysteries.

Marsha P Johnson

Secondly, we all know there was a big movement for demanding change especially about discrimination for black people. All problems and crimes for black people are not an acceptable. We all need to stand up and use out privileges for equality to this world. It’s not seasonal issue. We need to fix this right now.
Many people including myself, don’t think we prejudice someone, but maybe, there is a possibility that we treat somebody unequally. Please please please think subjective and what we can do.

I think there are so many ways to be active and be ally.
For example, educating yourself. There’s a lot of dramas, movies and articles. Use your Netflix and SNS account wisely.
“13th” would be a great start to learn.
But you know, if you really pay attention to these problems, especially BLM prostitution, go sigh up for campaign you want to support.

We cannot be perfect, but we can move on to the next step and grow, don’t you think?

Rainy season is coming…

Hello everyone!

It’s me Kana! How have you been?
June is here and  this month in Japan, we have many rainy days so people tend to be negative
and low motivation BUT I think our readers are very powerful and energetic as usual, right?!

In this month, I chose TRAVEL.
So, I’m gonna introduce my favorite place and what I bring there mainly ♥

♥TRAVEL♥

Do you like to travel?
I love to travel because I can charge energy and relax and also, I feel that I can become anyone so I can expand my dream.
That’s why I love travel and also I love to travel everywhere but especially love to go to  HAWAII 🏄‍♂️
Have you every been to Hawaii? Hawaii is state of America and through the year, there is warm and hot.
Also, Hawaii is famous for surf place. There are so many beautiful beaches and each island show different scenery.
But today I would love  to introduce Oahu island. This island is the most famous island in Hawaii and there are many sightseeing places.

♥Oahu island♥

Oahu island is the most popular place to visit in Hawaii so I think many people know where you need to visit for first time.
So today I’m gonna introduce my favorite place where I go every time I visit Oahu.
I’m gonna take you to 3 places where I want you to go when you go to Oahu.

1, Kualoa ranch

This is one of my favorite place to visit in Oahu. Jurassic Park movie filmed here so It is very popular for visiter.
This is not only the reason why I choose this place but also, the view at Kualoa is BEAUTIFUL. You’ll see a grand view from horse riding or buggy. You can enjoy leisure sports or horse riding surround by grand Hawaiian nature also you can charge energy.
Every time I go Hawaii, I feel spiritual energy and I feel fresh myself. Enjoy the view and activities at there!!!

2, Lanikai Beach

Lanikai beach is famous as heaven beach because water color is very clear and also there is white sand. It is very beautiful!
Lanikai beach is in  residential area so its difficult to find but the way you reach to the beach is very cute💗

If you go there don’t go after 2 or 3pm because tide is high so beach is gone when you get there.
Also, if you get bored to stay at beach you can also hike Lanikai pillbox. It is not long course but the way you climb is very rough road so should wear sneaker.

3,TEDDY’s Bigger Burger

 

Who doesn’t like burger? Nobody!
Teddy’s bigger burger is the best burger store in Oahu. They grill meat after you order so very juicy.
Oh, I just write about it but I am slobbering lol

 

 

 

How you like my recommendation?
Those 3 places are must to go!

BUT do you remember that my category is beauty and health.
So today I also wanna introduce what I bring to HAWAII.

♥BEAUTY♥

I definitely bring water bottle and hat, Vitamin C ample from Aesop, Face mask from FEMMUE, cicapair cream from Dr,Jart+
Lip balm from Grandpawpaw, Face mist from MAC, Innisfree.
Those items are must and when you go to Hawaii definitely need sunscreen but I BUY it in Hawaii. Because Japanese sunscreen include Benzophenone and Octinoxate. Also, from 2021 US issue a prohibition against to bring sunscreen from foreign country because Benzophenone and Ocrinoxate destroy coral reef. So buy it in Hawaii. Walmart and Whole foods are my recommendation to buy!

Thank you for reading until the end!
See you next time💗

JUNE THEME

Hi guys, it’s me again, Momo☺️

I’m gonna share theme and keywords or this month!

In this month, bloggers gonna write articles about “memories”.

I drop three keywords that relate to the theme.

Keywords are……

Trip, Heartbreaking and treasure!

What’s your favorite memories, readers?

For me, I’m planning to post something very important that you guys should know.

You may all know about recent movement, BLM and pride.

Every news I heard, saw and read in this month was absolutely unacceptable.

What I see on the Instagram everyday is telling me the reality of racism issues, and these issues must end ASAP.

It’s not someone else’s problem.

That’s why I thought I have to have a place to talk about how black people were treated and let you guys know how much heartbreaking stories there are!

Let’s study together, and make this revolution happen!


ついに6月!

暑すぎて毎日アイスクリームになって溶けちゃいそうです。

さあ、新しい月ということは、新しいテーマの発表~

今月は『思い出』

キーワードは

①旅行の思い出

②つらい思い出

③宝物の思い出

の3つです!

この3つで思い出す事柄はどんなことですか?

でもでもでもでも。。

今月は楽しいことだけじゃない!momoは真面目なトピックにも触れるつもりで②のキーワードをいれました

6月はプライドマンス、だけじゃない。今年は変革の時!

多くの人が知っているはず。LGBTQの人たちに対する差別や、今起こっているBLMの活動は全く他人ごとじゃない。

日本人だから、とか、私はそういうグループに属している友達がいるからと言って何にも行動を起こさないのは、差別に賛同しているのと同じこと

そういう投稿も含め、読んでくれると嬉しいし、みんなの意識がかわったり、何か行動に移す人がいてほしい!

一人ひとりが変わることが本当に大切なことやから!!!

THINK PINK!

THINK PINK!

“Vanish the black, burn the blue and bury the beige! From Now on, girls, Think Pink!”

Do you know where this line from? Yes, It’s from Funny Face! In Japan, Funny face are known as パリの恋人. Today’s topic is movie. From my last post, I listed a song from this film called Think Pink to the playlist. Then now, It reminds me I should write about this classic movie starred by Audrey Hepburn.

Brief info:

Funny Face is filmed in 1957 by Stanley Donen who known as choreographer and film director. He filmed Singing in the Rain, Charade and more famous musical movies. Last not the least, Audrey Hepburn was starred. This film is sensational because before this there is no film about behind scene of fashion industry. About this fashion details I’m gonna write down later!

Story About..

This is one of the cinderella stories about a shy book seller girl, Jo (Hepburn) in Greenwich Village who acknowledges French philosophy turns into a model. Because of photographer, Dick (Astaire) who works for a fashion magazine called “Quality Magazine” found her by accident on the photoshoot of magazine. She decided to be a model because he said “ You can go to Paris if you were model and yon can meet your dream professor of Philosophy there.” So she seeks her dream and new adventure for love with the photographer.

Someone familiar with this story?

This is kinda classic musical version of Devil wears Prada. In this case, it’s not about a writer it’s all about a model. And also, the sample of magazine is not Vogue this time It’’s about Harper Bazaar. However, there are a lot of common points too. For example, in both scenarios heroines are incredibly smart and attractive. We can say also the chief editor characters have models in real fashion magazine world.

Spoiler Alert!! A lot of iconic fashions are going on!

It’s all about Givenchy! Not PRADA. It’s kinda famous story that Givenchy was one of closest friends of Hepburn. Before filming Funny Face, she wanted Givenchy to design her costume in Sabrina, but it didn’t work because of his schedule difficulties. Thus, this time he helped to design costume in this movie. There is one more forgettable fashion person, her name is Edith Head. She made it all happen. The movie was rare in 50s, because on the end role there was a credit for Givenchy’s . It was a turning point of  new friendship between fashion and movie.

Funny Face means?

Funny Face means unique and charming in this scenario. In the fashion industry there are a lot of faces which are beautiful and perfect. From my point of view, this is one of release from perfectionist. This message means it’s okay to be funny or unique. If you believe in nature of beauty inside of you, it proves your charm is to be yourself.

 

Thank you fo reading! I think it’s great opportunity to take a look for classic movie. It’s simple story but you can learn different perspective of values.

See you next post soon!

My Original Spring Week Plan

Hello readers, it’s me, momo!

How’s your life?

Today’s post, I’m gonna give you an enjoyable week plan for spring just to get out of these boring days….

so here is an idea.

I put some messages to each day so you think about it and express it.

For example, for day 1, when I see that quote, “live in full bloom”, I think about a bouquet full of colorful flowers, so I come up with an idea that I’m gonna put on pastel color makeups🌹

I want you to tryLike this.  Doesn’t it sound exciting?!

In quarantine period, I feel I don’t spend productive time BUT you know what, we are humans.(Hurray!) We can make ourselves comfortable no matter how difficult situation we live through by being creative.

And spoil you as much as you can cuz we have a lot of time! At least for now!


コロナで暇な日々を過ごしている人へ朗報!

春らしさを感じて過ごせるような一週間のスケジュールをオリジナルで作ってみたよ

スケジュールといっても人によってどんな過ごし方をするかが変わるような、ちょっと変わったスケジュール🗓

Day1から7までに書いてある言葉を見てどんな風に過ごそうか考えてみて!

私だったら香水や服装、メイクをこの毎日のメッセージからインスパイアされたものに変えようかなって🦋

毎日『外に出れたら』『退屈だ』って思うより、自分たちのクリエイティビティを使って毎日を楽しいものに変えていこう!
