| Put some color in your life - Kate Spade ads |
| 2008-05-09 15:03:20 |
I love Kate Spade ads because they seem to tell a story with the images. You can invent the whole life of the people who appear in them (note that I didn't say "models", as they look more human). Let's have fun with some Kate ads."Are you sure someone is going to pick us up? We've been like this for three hours""No, sorry, Ms. Wintour isn't at her office at the moment" "I told you she didn't want to see us""Please try to act, I'm the best director in the world and this movie is going to be a fai...

These weeks I've had a lot of free time for reasons that aren't very interesting, so I promised myself that I would do a lot of things to make the days go faster and also to learn new things. First, I went to a bookshop and bought several kilos of books. Jane Austen classics (Emma and Pride & Prejudice), the bestsellers of vampires by Stephenie Meyer (Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse), the Gossip Girl series (a total of 8 books, and I have just discovered that there are three more, which I bou...

| 2008-05-09 04:33:48 |
Forbes has just published this year's list of the best paid models in the fashion industry.I made these two lists to compare last year's richest models and the newbies. Liya Kebede entered the list but she took Jessica out. Shalom Harlow also disappeared, and Miranda Kerr reached the 10th place in the list, a great improvement in just one year (thanks to Victoria's Secret, of course).I don't know what I'd do if I had that amount of money. Well, I think I do know. I'd buy myself a room in a good ...

I don't like Lara Stone.I still wear my wayfarers.I like Cory Kennedy.I think that "Prêt-à-Porter" is the worst fashion film ever. I didn't know magazine editors slept with photographers to obtain exclusives. That's a thing Carine or Anna would never do. Or any good magazine editor, I think.My "I'm not a plastic bag" is a fake.I have 12.975 fashion images saved in my computer.The first time I watched "Breakfast at Tiffany's" I hated it. Now it is one of my favourite films.I have watched Sofia'...

| Which Gossip Girl character are you? |
| 2008-05-07 08:58:47 |
I am totally addicted to Gossip Girl. The series AND the books. The books are way better, and there are a total of 11 + a prequel, so... lots of benefit balls, backstabbing, stress pre-college, trips in yachts and beauty sessions after class.The thing we usually discuss is if we like Blake/Serena or Leighton/Blair. It seems that there are more fans of Blair than Serena's, and a lot of Chuck and his scarf fans...So I decided to make a little test to know which character is the most similar to us....

They are so cute and stylish and elegant...I've been looking on ebay and the cheapest I've found so far is $970. (I must admit it looks kind of a fake).I was dreamy so I started to think: "Well, with the value of dollars and the change to euros it drops to 700€..." Yeah, like it made a big difference. So the next step was to look for fakes (hey, this is an emergency, ok? And it is not my fault, it's...

No australian fashion week for Monika Jagaciak.This 14 year old model was booked out from an international show and she won't be able to walk on this year's edition of Australia Fashion Week. Although she can appear on magazine covers, the shows are not for her. I think they did the right thing. On one hand, the younger the better, because she will make profit of her best years, she is young and her career will last longer. On the other hand, is it right to have a 14-year-old girl in a world of ...

"How could she post this?" I hear you saying. This is the opposite kind of photographs that I like to post. The pics I usually publish are, more or less, perfect. Bright colors, beautiful models, elegant clothes, dreamy surroundings... Sometimes I can't avoid but staring at Vogue Paris editorials over and over again. Like I will see something new each time.But the images I am posting today are totally different. Maybe they are photographed by Mario Testino, modelled by Eva Herzigova and styled b...

This superhero trend is one of my favourites out there. Better than the warrior trend or the futuristic trend. I have always loved superhero movies: Spiderman, Batman (especially Robin...), Superman (the Christopher Reese ones), although their plot is very similar, I love watching them over and over. It's strange that I don't like the comics, isn't it?.I am not describing the latest issue of US Vogue because it is almost everywhere, but do you have in mind Coco's editorial by Craig McDean? hereY...

I must admit that Personal Style blogs usually appear to me as the most boring blogs ever. Unless they are so original and chic like Rumi's. I mean, the blogs that only post about what are they wearing, because although Susie Bubble's main posts are based on pics of her outfits, she always posts interesting reviews.So let's talk about Fashion Toast. I discovered her blog because she added mine to her bloglist, and the same thing that happened when I discovered Gala's fotolog happened this time: ...

The first one that I ever read was Jamie's, then Milkshake Chocolate, then I don't know how but I got a free digital subscription to Nylon and finally DirrtyGlam. I fell in love with the last one, because it was very young and fresh, a mix between the spanish Vanidad and Nylon.It was a big surprise and I was honored when Alie from DirrtyGlam asked me to write an article about James Francis Millar, a young great designer, for their webzine.

The best parts: when Hugh Grant goes to the cinema using the diving goggles because he can't find his glasses (his flatmate is sitt...

Like Miuccia's collections, these series of ads have grown on me, and now they are one of my favourite ads this season. Apart from the celebrity/model debate, I think Jennifer looks great on this difficult dress, and when we saw her sporting it on a red carpet, we inmediately knew something was going on.And we were right.Nicholas Ghesquière said: "It's the friendship: That's why she did the campaign, I've been after her for a few years now."

As far as I know, Karl is one of the most adored people in the fashion world. If you don't like him, don't feel lonely because I'm starting to dislike him too. He used to be a genius for some years, his Chanel collections were new and unique each season and his sharp tongue was funny and kind of make him interesting. But lately it's just too much. Why does he need to say those things about people?. Sometimes he reminds me of Dr. House, from House M.D. he insults people because he thinks he's bet...

Every day we hear new names, new models, new designers, new photographers... some are good and some are just blah, and some are so great even when they are not very famous.This is the case when I think how can it be so unfair. I mean, there are so many awful designers (cough, Jeremy Scott, cough) who appear in all the magazines with easy collections, and how there are talented designers who spend a lot of time and genius in their collections but don't get any press. People doesn't want to attend...

The first time I saw Chloë was in a Woody Allen film, in Melinda and Melinda. I think it was because of the character she was playing that I didn't like her at all, and I really regret it because now she is a great style icon, her outfits are always outstanding and original, and you can't guess what she's going to wear because she always surprises us with something new (or vintage).Whereas there are some celebrities out there that I like both their style and their personality (Kirsten Dunst, Ka...

So Vogue Paris wants us to think...- Models DO eat- Natasha Poly DOES eat- Eating like a pig only looks good on Natasha- Please don't feed the models- Eating chicken is only acceptable if wearing expensive jewellery- Models are so perfect that they can eat and they won't gain weight- "We are beautiful, we eat and we wear fabulous clothes!"- Terry can make original photographs using only a pair of Yves Saint Laurent, an ice-cream and a model¿Qué nos quiere decir Vogue Paris con estas imágenes?...

In fact, it is rather boring, so let's say that I was struck by a shark while surfing in Hawaii and I need a surgery.I'll miss you so much, I'll miss the fashion news and I'll miss wearing something apart from the unstylish hospital pajamas. Life there is quite boring and grey (when things are kind of boring I say they are "grey"), my hair will look like Cory's (unbrushed and unwashed) and I will be prayi...

They are great, white... I look perfect on them. Right now I'm looking at them, they are on my desktop. Shining. Okay, I stop, haha.I went to the beach, I have been tanning and looking at the sky (with diaaamonds...), thinking and reading a lot.

back in 2004 It seems that this hairstyle was really "in" some years ago (but only in editorials, thank god). They remind me of this scene of Amadeus (a great film, you must watch it), when Mozart is at the hairdresser choosing a wig, and he can't decide which one is he going to wear, a pink one or a white one, and he says "I wish I had three heads!", and then he laughs with his funny laugh.I saw some pictures of Amber Valletta and Linda Evangelista dressed like that in a party with John Gallian...

She wears black and white, beautiful hats and high heels, she reads Jane Austen and watches Audrey Hepburn films. The rock girl? She loves leather jackets, ray-ban aviators, she wears a irina-esque fringe and listens to The Strokes in her black ipod. The modern one? The colors of her closet are fluor, neon, bright yellow and fuc...
