Current obsessions

Pigchic T-Shirts

Available here! I love the Chanel No.5 bottle one and the Gemma Ward one.

Mango / Burberry Trench Coat
I'm in love with this trench coat since I saw it at the Mango S/S 2010 fashion show. It's inspired by the Burberry coats you see below. The Mango version is 90€ more or less (available here) . Should I buy it?

Mimotica/Stella McCartney handbag
It's probably the least practical handbag ever, but isn't it cute? It's just 60€ at Mimotica Micola, a spanish brand. You can buy it here.

Stella McCartney S/S 2010



T-Post
More t-shirts from T-Post, the magazine you can wear. Each issue comes printed on the back of a t-shirt, which is re-designed every month. I already talked about them here. Awesome!

Photocall at Mango: some of my favourites

Congrats to Mónica Cruz, she looked stunning in Hervé Leger. I don't understand why people love criticizing her. If she didn't want to wear Mango, well done, she chose an amazing dress and she looked great on it. The best dressed of the night.

Enhorabuena a Mónica Cruz, estaba impresionante de Hervé Leger. No entiendo por qué a la gente le gusta criticarla tanto. Si no se quiso vestir de Mango, pues genial, eligió un vestido precioso que le quedaba fenomenal. La mejor vestida de la noche.

Scarlett Johansson is even prettier in person /// Scarlett Johansson es incluso más guapa en persona.

That's a weird tattoo, I wonder what it means /// Es un tatuaje curioso, me pregunto lo que significará.

Amazing. Her style is not very good, but she looks great anyway.

A very good combination of clothes, the lace tights are quite beautiful. /// Una buena combinación, las medias de encaje son muy bonitas la verdad.

The pink shoes are cool, but too many paillettes, don't you think? /// Los zapatos rosas dan un toque guay, pero hay demasiado brillo de lentejuelas en los dos conjuntos, ¿no os parece?

Moisés de la Renta, Oscar de la Renta's son. He seemed a very nice and funny person. /// Moisés de la Renta, hijo de Óscar de la Renta. Parecía un tipo muy simpático y divertido.

Mango Spring/Summer 2010: the fashion show!

mango, missatlaplaya

I had never been to a Mango fashion show before, and when I received the invite for the show that was going to take place on Wednesday 11th in Madrid I got very happy because I've always wanted to go to a fashion show that wasn't "by a designer", I mean, when the collections are made by a certain person for their own brand. The philosophy of the brand is totally different if it is a high-street label, and well, I know that I'll probably buy some outfits from the collection when they get to the shops.

I really liked the collection, much more than I had expected. A lot of denim, all sorts of trench coats, paillettes, lace dresses... I'd wear almost everything, except maybe for the jumpsuits. The bad thing as that most of the outfits won't be seen in the shops.

Ariadna, Laia and I took photos at the photocall, it was fun, but it took so much time (almost an hour and a half!) and it was very tiring at the end. I'll upload the photocall photos tomorrow.

The casting was amazing: Snejana Onopka (great), Kasia Struss, Iekeliene Stange, Alyona Osmanova, Jon Kortajarena, Marta Español, Amparo Bonmatí... A very good choice of models. The make-up and the hairstyles fitted them so well.


---------------------------------

Nunca antes había ido a un desfile de Mango, y cuando me llegó la invitación para el desfile del Miércoles 11 de Noviembre en Madrid me alegré mucho porque siempre he querido ir a un desfile fuera de "ropa de diseñador", es decir, colecciones que las hacen diseñadores para su propia marca. La filosofía de la marca es totalmente distinta cuando está destinada a tiendas de "precio asequible", y bueno, por primera vez sé que al menos me compraré algo de la colección cuando llegue a las tiendas.

La colección me gustó mucho, más de lo que esperaba. Mucho vaquero, estampado militar, trench en todas sus variantes, brillos, vestidos inspirados en el encaje... Me pondría casi todo, menos los monos vaqueros, es difícil que sienten bien. La pena es que luego la colección ni se verá en las tiendas, suele llegar la mitad de la mitad.

Ariadna, Laia y yo estuvimos haciendo fotos en el photocall, estuvo divertido aunque se hizo un poco largo (duró como una hora y media!). Mañana os pongo las fotos del photocall.

El casting era muy bueno: Snejana Onopka (increíble en la pasarela), Kasia Struss, Iekeliene Stange, Alyona Osmanova, Jon Kortajarena, Marta Español, Amparo Bonmatí... Una elección de modelos fantástica. El maquillaje y el peinado les favorecía mucho también.

Dree Hemingway attended the fashion show as a guest and not as a model, and Tommy Ton (Jak & Jil) was with her too. The whole outfit is from Mango.

This trench was a "copy" of the Burberry S/S 09 one... well, Mango, I can forgive you because it means that I'll be able to buy it without spending an extraordinary sum of money. /// Este trench era una "copia" de Burberry P/V 09... bueno, te perdono Mango, porque eso significa que me lo podré comprar por un precio mucho más razonable.

Sleeveless trench! It's perfect for those who spend summer in the north.
