The Boutique and New Luxury Trends
One of the best things to do in Europe during the Summer, besides tanning under the sun, is to make sure you do not miss what’s going on in the upcoming Fall/Winter fashion trends. While you were chilling out, many magazine editors, photographers, models, stage setters and style experts have been working extremely hard for to give you the right feel of what should be the next new look. I decided pick a few items in the Mariorita boutique through my Cannon so that you’ll be able visit with me.
Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella
Established in 1200, the Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella is one of the oldest pharmacies in the world. Founded by Dominican friars after 1221, the pharmacy used medicinal herbs grown in the monastic gardens to take medications, balms and pomades for the monk’s infirmary… Every time I step on that door I get a familiar feeling of ” Deja-vu” from past lives.
Floral Sculptor
Daniel Ost has been known to travel 900 kilometers to collect the materials for one bouquet. His artistry is in demand by royalty, celebrities, and corporations. His installations, which last only a few days, are extremely costly, but the artistic value is absolutely priceless. I checked the artist floral emporium at Rue Royale,13 in Brussels.

Historical City Center Beats
Brussels’ vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere and multicultural beat make it much more than simply the administrative hub of Europe. For all its gastronomical gems, architecture, and art, the city keeps a relatively low profile. I have created the perfect itinerary in the city’s historical center to relish it’s legendary landmarks, cobbled streets, old theaters and traditional shops.

Judaism is not just a set of beliefs about G-d, man and the universe.The word “Halakhah” is usually translated as “Jewish Law,” The word is derived from the Hebrew root Hei-Lamed-Kaf, meaning to go, to walk or to travel. Travel with me across the world of Jewish laws and preserved rituals.
Jewels of Pessah
