Millennium Saga

I have just finished the third of the Millennium Saga books... More than 1500 pages that had me breathless for weeks and now that it is finally over... I feel like crying... There won't be a fourth book!
In 2004, Stieg Larsson handed out the manuscripts to his editor and before they were even published, he died of a stroke! He was only 50 years old!
He left us, though, two characters that are now part of Literature mythology: Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander, such a fragile and also strong woman! You end up loving her...
The books also create a tremendous curiosity to go visit that modern, complicated, different Sweden. With the success of the Saga, in Europe there are new tours inviting fans to visit the key places where Larsson's characters live and move.
How can I describe the Millennium Saga to you with its three long books?
Well, it's a thriller, a dark novel but, above all, a romantic love story-
The movie version of the first book will premiere soon.
I'll tell you about it when I see it.

Tell me you love me!!

I spent most of last year watching on DVD the entire first season of "Tell me you love me."
Ten episodes of love, sex and couples... very interesting.
I do not think that you can see this new original HBO series in Argentina yet, but I assure you it's worth it.
The cast is not that popular but really great.

Le Moulin Blue

Yesterday I went to the new theatre Le Moulin Blue (El Molino Azul), on Rodríguez Peña and Corrientes, to see the Music Hall "Sugargirls".
The show's a creation on the talented choreographer Juan Emilio Guidobono, who was also in charge of the direction.
I must confess I liked it! Great dancers and singers and stunning costumes. Pure energy and talent on stage.
Go see it. I absolutelly recommend it.

What I wore?
A black sequined Prada dress with peep-toes shoes by Louboutin and a Judith Leiber miniaudière.

John Nollet at the Park Hyatt

Yesterday I went to the cocktail organized by the Park Hyatt Hotel and Louis Vuitton to welcome the visit of one of Paris most popular stylists, John Nollet. He does the hair of such women as Monica Belluci and Marion Cotillard among others.
You can have an appointment with him from today to September 1st at his Hyatt suite and feel as if in Paris.
You'll like him, he's really good-looking and charming.
But know this: he'll be charging U$S 700 the haircut... Hey! But in Paris you would be paying 700 euros...
