Dont make me sad, dont make me cry, sometimes love is not enough and roads get tough I dont know why, keep making me laugh, lets go get high, the road gets long, we carry on, try to have fun in the meantime...

Coachella Festival

Coachella Festival is well known for the caracteristic bohemian/pocahontas/hypster style that makes us want more, more sunshine and summer smell. The americans started early their Festival Season, but here in London we still have a few months left to get all crazy stylist, cut our jeans, put flowers in our heads and clean the dust of our sunnies.
Also, we got enough time to get inspired by the Coachella looks and start planning ahead our outfits.

One more time, Coachella is all about fringes, super micro shorts, white, messy hair, feathers, etc.
This year there was place for experimenting with neoprene, super flowy maxi skirts plus cropped tops, and hats. Therefore comfortable and chic, beach bum style always prevails in this Californian event of the year.

What is your favourite??

Pete Doherty and The Kooples

And you will think, what Peter Doherty has to do with the french label The Kooples?.

As his ex Kate Moss (Topshop, Mango),or addictions-mate Amy Winehouse (Fred Perry) he has designed a collection for this expensive and trendy brand, based on three pieces suits, t-shirt printed with his own artwork, and some casual sportswear.

All I can remember about him, it is those blood stained shirts, dirty fedora hats and greasy hair, but he has definitely surprises me a little with this dandified collection.

Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer 2012

The latest collection of Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen is something he will be very proud of, a jaw dropping collection just like the ones he used to create that made us hold our breath.

The collection starts with nude pencil skirts and cropped jackets, and it goes through gold, lavender and pale pink to black lace, and leather treated perfectly and beautifully. Masks that absorbed the pretty faces of the models, giving them an "out of this world" look.

Under the sea was the inspiration and she surely succeed by giving the garments all the exact treatments, macramé lace bodies fell to train of mother of pearl, dresses with beads and shell growing up the body, skirts and dresses with ruffles that emerge like beautiful corals,...

No more words to say, have a look at the full collection in vogue.com and get ready to get the goosebumps.

Pure art!

oh lala curves!

Lets face it, bloggers all over the globe make us think the skinny type of girl is what is

fashionable, cool and trendy.... I´m quite fed up of the slender look, so so so tall and so so so skinny with oversized jumpers long skirts, long hair, massive sky high hells... So glad watching Star Style in Mtv today, proclaiming new America glamour style in the type of Eva Mendes or Kim Kardasian, curves, full figure, natural beauty... I´m not a big fan of the Kardashians, but I have to say see rock her curves, and thanks to her fame lots of girls are realising how much fun is having curves and a natural beauty.

Eva Mendes has this old glamour style, with fitted dresses, big hair, big smile that I totally adore. She is totally fashion forward without going to any extreme, she knows herself and her body, and she definitely knows what is best for her body type.

Flowery dresses, lots of colour, accentuated waist, retro sunglasses. Think of Marilyn Monroe and Sofia Loren.

Don`t do what is trendy or what looks cool on others, do what feels right for your body, what makes you feel sexy and what accentuate your qualities.

Work it girl!

500 days of summer

I

love love love this movie, not just because is the best anti romcom I have ever seen or because Joseph Gordon Levitt is so yummy. I also love the fact that it pays so much attention to the detail. If you notice, Summer (Zoey Deschannel) always wears something blue, a little bow in her hair, a top, a dress, ... The rest of the characters wear quite simple and plain clothes, except for her.

For a wardrobe stylist you have to understand the character and create outfits that portray his personality. Summer is a sweet and charming girl, and with the detail of blue matching her eyes, the viewer gets connected to the charm of the character, and understands why Tom is so obsessed with Summer. At least that is what happened to me!.

If you haven´t seen the movie yet, what are u waiting for?!
