People from all over the world are keen on interpreting various
historic, mystic and psychological pseudo secrets created by the impetuous
fantasy of Dan Brown and people like him. And it is surprising that one of the most effective and showy
secrets of the real history are not revealed to the wide public. It is in the
aware of the intimate circle of people with active, perhaps, too active social
positions. It concerns the so-called Liberia or the library belonging to the
Russian tsar Ivan Vasilyevich aka Ivan the Terrible which disappeared
mystically.
Vanessa-Mae is a special person to find her
own particular niche in the world show-business. The followers
of classic violin music who take care of the implicit adherence to the centuries-old
traditions of composition performance playing the violin treat the
techno-electronic experiments by Vanessa-Mae
with some skepticism. On the other and, the typical pop-music players and the music
aimed at commercial success are also difficult to perceive and accept the
English lady of Chinese and Thai origin. Yet, the violin and show biz do not
actually contradict but they are not compatible at all. And Vanessa is aside
from the basic sow biz figures though she is one of the musicians acknowledged
at the world level.

Everyone heard of Cannes. And the most famous city of the
French Riviera is associated with different events and people from person to
person. But Cannes,
first of all, is the perfect place forvery wealthy people and celebrities. And anyone wants to live as beautiful
and luxury as possible.
Enjoy some
statistic data for introduction. So, Cannes is a
small town on the Mediterranean shore
of France, near to the Napoule,
with the population of residents of approximately 70 thousand people. The Mediterranean
climate is here in the town and its suburbs, with typical soft moderate
temperature regime within a year; and the indicators of average temperature is
the evidence for that, with 10 degrees in winter, and 13 degrees in spring,
while in summer the temperature is 21 degrees, and 16 degrees in the autumn.
The town now is spread for 9
kilometers along the sea shore, including the popular La Croisette Quay, Antibes Street, Walk
of Freedom and the Festival
Palace, the place to hold
the legendary Cannes Festival, being the most prestigious Cinema Festival in
the world.
We are glad
to make a short excursion to the past to let you know how come that a small
town in France gained the
reputation of the main resort at Cote d'-Azur.
The first settlement was founded here in the year 42 A.D. when the Romans set
the dwelling called Aegtina here. The town was renamed approximately thousand years
ago for Cannes, and as experts state the word «Cannes» comes from the
plant growing here in the reed. During the middle Ages these lands were possessed
by one of the monasteries, and Cannes
was the ordinary fishing village (!). The situation was like that till XIX century
when the moderate and comfortable climate and beauty of the shore attracted the
attention of people.
The actual
«founder» of the modern Cannes
is the English lord Brougham who incidentally visited this place in 1834. He
liked the place so much that he constructed the residence here and lived there.
When he died, the high society of the entire Europe came to say good bye to
him, the lord was the former chancellor of Great Britain. The European aristocrats
appreciated the beauty of the last shelter of Brougham and that was like a
triggering point to invest into the lands in Cannes and build their villas there. And when
the country road along the sea shore turned into the three-kilometer luxury La Croisette Quay two centuries
ago with the plenty of hotels, cafes and stores, Cannes was titled as one of the best resorts.
Tourists first arriving to Cannes
face hotels, which are over 100 and a lot more tour residences. The range of
hotel services does impress. You have a room subject to your taste and budget.
The luxury place at Cote d'-Azur cannot do without
four-star and five-star hotels, though there are cheaper rooms also for any
class of people.
Cannes has been the elite resort for every
time in the back, and here you enjoy the atmosphere of well-fed luxury and if
you like the active rest for the youth, including extreme kind of relaxation,
you feel hard to find something to satisfy the tastes and preferences. Cannes
is the place to relax, not the place to feel the extreme scent of freedom and permissiveness.
Nevertheless, Cannes
helps to experience bright and strong feeling as well, offering a plenty of
gambling joints where the access is available for men in smoking and ladies
should wear evening dresses to play there. La Croisette Casino
is famous in the sphere of games that is situated in the Festival Palace.
This Casino Houses has about three hundred game machines, Moreover, those who
prefer cards and roulette, find something interesting for them also, winning
and losing money.
The Cannes
Film Festival is the most legendary event that is held in the Festival
Palace.
If you arrive to the town in May, you will see the celebrities and
famous
people all over the town not only on the red carpet. Cannes is the
place where people are
accustomed to celebrities and they do no express their love and
obtrusive wish
to talk to them, that it is easy for stars to walk in the streets
freely. Apart
from Cannes Film Festival a range of congresses and sessions are held
in Cannes yielding to only Paris in the national scale. There is the
Walk
of Fame in Cannes created like that in Hollywood, and also the
charming square to honor Prosper Merimee who lived and died here.
Those who
appreciate the luxury and beautiful things will get lost in Cannes with the abundance of splendor. The most
luxury boutiques with designer clothes and shoes, with fur items, with elite
jewelry and perfume products, and all other things that would refer to the
category of exclusive, prestigious and extremely expensive stuff may be
acquired here, in Antibe Street, that goes straight throughout the town
parallel too the se ashore and reaching the legendary La Croisette Quay.
It is
useless to say something about La Croisette
Quay. All the lavish boutiques and stores, the most
prestigious hotels and expensive restaurants and cafes, located in the most
elegant building of the town, presenting the most varied menus and wine cards,
plus 8 kilometer
of sand beaches and dams with thousands of yachts and boats, and you will have
the entire picture of what La Croisette Quay
is.
And who
cares that people want to live a wealthy and beautiful life there?
When you go
shopping at the large flea market you are tempted to buy the sunglasses which
are presented in a huge variety there. Or a pair of them. The more you want, the cheaper they come.
Though, all these models are sun glasses with dark lenses but nothing more. The
point is that you look for authentic functional sunglasses which protect eyes
from stress and round-eye – from ageing, but not the simple accessory.
Traditionally
the season of autumn and winter shows less extravagant and flamboyant styles
offered by fashion designers. Since the weather sets the trends in most cases,
supported by designers, the shows for cold seasons should be practical and
comfortable. The upcoming season winter 2011 is not the exclusion where the
majority of fashion brands prefer the safe and quality of classic style. This
is not to say that trendy shoes for winter 2011 are less beautiful. It is not
like that. The latest models of shoes at the shows of reputed fashion designers
appear the real pattern of elegance and femininity that go beyond the time.
When you see a woman wearing the fragrance that suits her
ideally and evokes enjoyment, pleasure and bliss and makes her fly, you see how
beautiful she is. The fragrances affect us to a greater extent far more than we
could anticipate. The fragrances that come as thrilling and fascinating but go
away too quickly are forgotten too easily, though there are various classic
fragrances that are demanded and loved for over fifty years already. Those
fragrances were created in the previous century by people who are not with us
though they are perfect to strike the women with full and handy notes of sensitivity.
Yet, one of the classic scents that seem to live forever is «Diorissimo» by
Christian Dior.
Ears are pierced from the time immemorial and when we talk
about piercing we hardly think of ears. Nose piercing is the second popular
type of body piercing in the world. this custom was practiced long time ago in
the Indian, African and South Pacific cultures. Honestly specking, it was rare
till our days when this is trendy to have this small piece of jewelry in the
nose. First nose piercing was mentioned back in II thousand years B.C. in India
nose piercing is more than popular, it is, moreover, the part of tradition. In
70s of the previous century piercing as a trendy movement seemed to be pretty
fashionable among the avant-garde young people who often rebelled against
settled conservative traditions and customs.
