Mix it

Too many things to say and too little time.
DIY fever

I'll be posting next week some DIY tutorials, but this t-shirt couldn't wait. I mean, you only need a red pen, and a black pen.

I don't know which are better, the heartshaped sunglasses or the kiss-shaped sunglasses.

Things I like on this photo:

- How happy they seem.
- Their elegant outfits.

A model sleeps on her father's lap. This is the cutest backstage photo I ever seen. Look at their faces. Both of them look so tired, and I love the fact that he's with her, like, for moral support.

A possible award


Thanks to the fabulous Lorentzo, who chose me as one of the five best fashion blogs of 2008. Hope I win the "2008 Best Fashion Blog" award! :)


Maybe Maybelline

On Wednesday I went to a make-up class. Although I am not usually interested in seeing/trying/buying make-up, I must admit I had so much fun. It was a class only for bloggers (yes, we exist too!) held by Maybelline (I love singing that thing they say at the end of all their commercials). Our teacher was Gato, the official make-up artist for Maybelline NY. I arrived some hours later, so I had the pleasure of having my make-up put by Gato, and I looked really good with his little tips. I know you are saying: "Please, tell us those tips", but I knew so little about make-up that the tips were the basics, like "Apply the base first, then the corrector, then the blush, and no eyeshadow!" (my eyes look better without eyeshadow). Gato was so fun, he said "The eyelash curler is the best thing ever invented"

When I was a kid, I used to dream about being in Toys 'r' us with a trolley and being allowed to take everything I wanted, for free. This time was the same, they told us: "You can take everything you want". But I felt too shy to take all the eyeshadows, lipbalms, rimmel, lipsticks... All the other bloggers (I finally met La Ratita Presumida, Mamen de El Blog de Moda, and Trendy and Charm) ran to the Maybelline products and soon everything had disappeared. The people from Maybelline (who were really nice) gave me all sort of beauty products, and I kept them for my mother and my friends. Instead, I took some beautiful things by La Casita de Wendy.
Thanks to all the nice people from Maybelline.
---------------------

El miércoles fui a una clase de maquillaje. Aunque normalmente no me interesa mucho ver/probar/comprar productos de maquillaje, debo admitir que me lo pasé fenomenal. Era un evento organizado por Maybelline (me encanta decir lo de "Está en tí, está en Maybelline" con la voz de la chica del anuncio) sólo para bloggers (conocí a Laura de La Ratita Presumida, a Mamen de El Blog de Moda, y a Trendy and Charm) en el que Gato, el maquillador oficial de Maybelline New York nos dio una clase para aprender a maquillarnos mejor. Yo llegué un poco tarde, así que Gato me maquilló en un plisplás estupendamente y me dio unos consejos. Ya sé lo que me vais a decir, que por favor os los cuente, pero sé tan poco de maquillaje que todo era muy básico, primero base, luego corrector, luego polvos, luego colorete y sin sombra de ojos (me queda mejor no llevar sombra de ojos). Gato fue muy divertido, me dijo "El rizador de pestañas es el mejor invento de la historia"

Cuando era pequeña solía imaginarme que estaba en Toys 'r' us y que me dejaban meter en un carro todos los juguetes que quisiera, y gratis. Pues bueno, lo del miércoles fue parecido, porque al terminar de maquillarnos nos dijeron: "Podéis coger lo que queráis". Pero me daba no sé qué llevarme los rímmels, las sombras de ojos, los pintalabios, así como así, y casi todo desapareció antes de que me decidiera a llevarme cosa yo también. Cogí unas pocas cosas (todo para mi madre y mis amigas) y también varias cosillas de La Casita de Wendy, una marca que me encanta.
Gracias a la gente de Maybelline por haberme invitado.

The place where it was held was a showroom, so we had a look at the clothes they had there. Some of them were really beautiful.

Fashionlag



Jimmy Choo, Angela Lindvall by Terry Richardson


After one month of being disconnected from the fashion world, I arrive to see that everything has ch-ch-ch-changed, but it is the same.



Style.com's new look



It looks better, but I have to navigate it for some days to decide if it is a good change or a bad change.



Favourite F/W 2008/2009 ad campaigns:

The Real Life of Vogue Interns
"Meeting the managing editor is out of the question. We didn't have desks or a chair or anywhere to sit. There was one computer and one chair — that was basically the general intern and computer chair. If you had to print out pictures or do a return on the computer, you had to wait to use it. I felt that we were just a big army. At any time in the closet there were about fifteen of us. For the most part, people didn't know who you were individually." Ashley in The Cut
Did they made you get the unpublished copy of Harry Potter?

"They said, 'You need to lose more weight — the look this year is anorexia, and although we don't want you to be anorexic, we want you to look it,'" she recalled. "My question is, how do you look anorexic unless you actually are?" Coco Rocha at the CFDA.
I suggest you read the whole article here, I posted it for you.
She's the most sensible model out there. She seems so confident.

No-rules Britannia!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
I was feeling brittish today so I decided to post these two things I love:

This editorial:
No-rules Britannia!
Vogue UK May 2006

by Mario Testino with Jacquetta Wheeler, Lily Cole, Stella Tennant, Lily Donaldson and Karen Elson It is clear that in 2006 there wasn't this agyness-boom, because I bet she would have been in these pics, next to these great brittish models.
I love love love this editorial because it so artsy and elegant, yet odd (that wooden skirt is so beautiful but totally unwearable!). Lily Cole looks like sweetcotton, and Stella reminded me of Marie Antoinette.
