A new luxury magazine, titled Exhibition, will be hitting newstands worldwide on January 25. The mission of Exhibition is to showcase one particular object or product in-depth for its single edition out yearly.
The first theme for the glossy magazine’s debut edition is lipstick. “The lipstick is a commercial object yet full of symbols and symbolism”.
“It is iconic, timeless, intimate and generates plenty of fantasies,” Exhibition editor in chief Jean-Christophe Husson told Women’s Wear Daily.

Access to French macarons is not readily available if you live in the US for the most part.
However if you are lucky enough to live in Japan, things are different.
Not only are French macarons shops on almost every corner But also there is a ton of macaron toys and souvenirs to be had!



NTT DoComo, the Japanese telephony operator has asked the French pastry cooker Pierre Herme NTT to imagine mobile phones inspired from its sweet foods.

Recently, I discovered an incredible pastry-shop in Paris, Pierre Hermé, where you can try some interesting flavored macarons, such as caramel with fleur de sel , passion fruit with chocolate or even rose petal cream.
(Macarons are French, meringue-like cookies made with almond flour – sometimes called luxembourgers – while Macaroons are cookies made with coconut)
Pierre Hermé is an artist – an artist of pastry making - and he is known for his innovative recipes. He began his apprenticeship at Gaston Lenôtre at the age of 14, where he discovered his passion for pastry making.
