Dior Homme Belt with Eagle Buckle


Eagle is another Dior Homme signature. I have seen eagle appearing in jewelleries, t-shirts and so on. This is a belt from from Hedi with a massive eagle belt buckle with brass colour that gives a kind of vintage look which is easily match up with anything. The belt buckle is fitted in place by hook that located at the back of the wing.

The belt is made in Italy. The belt loop is embossed DIOR HOMME. The massive belt buckle really glam up your look no matter what you are wearing.

Dior Homme Skeleton Angel Wing T-Shirt


To be very honest, I'm not a big fan of T-shirts. I find it sometimes like of spirit, but certainly not this one - Dior Homme skeleton angel wing t-shirt. The print is identical to the one printed on hoodie. It is made in 100% cotton. The strange thing is that I do not understand why Dior Homme has started making their T-shirts in Turkey rather than their usual Italy. Maybe they are cutting cost? Well, even the very expert sale assistant cannot understand. The reference number is 7H3362890091 - 806.

In any case, I just have to have them! A great piece to layer with my jacket and skinny scarf.....

Fancy a Ferrero Rocher?


I always go to bed very late even I need to wake up early sometimes. Today I woke up at 9-ish then I find my girlfriend has gone to work. She has left me this surprise Ferrero Rocher with a post it note "Fancy a Ferrero?". I can't remember when was the last time I gave her any surprise. If you can think of any, please let me know. I need a BIG surprise idea..

I am a big fan of chocolate, indeed Ferrero is my favourite high street chocolate. Suddenly I am wondering if I had Ferrero all day, how many I can have to not exceed daily calories requirement? I found this interesting fact - One Ferrero Rocher contains 73.33 calories. If my daily calories consumption is 2000 calories, I can only have 27 pieces.

Ferrero contain a whole roasted hazelnut encased in a thin wafer shell filled with nutella/hazelnut cream and covered in milk chocolate and chopped hazelnuts.

Ferrero SpA has started their business since 1946 and currently has a lot of other products like Nutella, Kinder Chocolate Bar.
