Fashion on screen
Lately we have been seeing a lot of fashion on screen, from movies, documentaries, presentations, terasers to tv shows. I have been catching up with them slowly starting by The September Issue, Valentino the last emperor (which moved me inmensly), Coco avant Chanel and Lagerfeld confidential, thought this last one I still haven't found with english subtitles, could it be a sign that I must learn french? Maybe.
Anyways, this mornig I found this very interesting article on The Business of Fashion about the Best of the Season fashion films (and fashion film happenings) that were seen this season a fantastic, groundbreaking and becharming selection.
Of course Alexander McQueens futuristic and technological SS 2010 runway made the the top of the list. In the backround you can see the Nick Knight film in the huge LSD screen, an extra touch to get you lost in McQueens world.
Sencond in the list was Guy Bourdin with a surreal piece that can be seen on the second floor of the Paris department store Le Bon Marché.
In third cam the 4 abstract films about the four elements that Gareth Pugh presented during his first New York Fashion week. They were made by Ruth Hogben and can be seen on Showstudio.
Other videos that made the list were from: Richard Nicoll, Vanessa Bruno, David David, A shaded view of fashion of Diane Pernet, Complex Geometries by Jason Last , Tim Hamilton’s Rope and Climb, E.Tautz -sporting and military tailors and Pringle of Scotland.

My favorite, Vanessa bruno with her 2009-2010 Fall/Winter collection of this urban cavewoman warrior. Romanticly stron and poetic. It made number 5 in the list.
The article is quite interesting, it has all the descriptions and reviews, something I didn't have time to write for you all in just an hour lunch break, so do read if if you can.

J'Adore!
I am in love with this video!! Thank you C' for showing it to me!
I must say I am not a Dolce&Gabbana fan and I would never buy this product, but they did a pretty good job trying to convince me with this video of their new cellphone Jalou for Sony Ericsson.

can't leave the babies home alone
Lately I have been introducing you to my creative friends, which I admire immensely, first was LealDaccarett, then Santiago Restrepo and last but absolutely not least Natalia Criado.
Natalia is a industrial designer with an impeccable taste in photography, fashion and design.
She has her own company called Orto, which in italian means orchard. so she cultivates ideas that grow and bloom into creative concepts! Orto produces brand images, provides graphic consultancy services and is a platform for house decor, jewelery and accessories that she makes.



Her latest crafts are these freaky jewelry that have made me go mad!! As soon she uploaded pictures on her personal facebook I was stunned!






She is also known as the 'pon pon queen' and was the one to teach me the magnificent pon pon labour, the problem is once you go pon pon you don't want togo back. As you can see this happened to her, she started out with the filling of the pon pon wired chair, and ended up creating thousand of pon pon for head pieces, cd cases, etc.




Then she makes furniture , ceramics and other house decor pieces. My favorite is the magazine / book keeper, a comfortable piece to have at home, with fantastic function that keeps all your disorganized magazine stacks in order without occuping space .

'A shot of coffee', to shoot your self with caffeine every morning, one of her first potteries with a very cleaver concept.

For now I have the babies which I have been wearing quite a lot, many find it odd and freakysh, I find it absolutely delightful to be able to carry around all these babies, I feel bad if I leave them all by themselves.

creative, psychotropic and fantastic!
When I saw him last April when he came to see me in Milan for design week he showed me his last sketches and drawings and how he was placing them everywhere, from hoodies to shoes. I met up with him again in Colombia, he had reached a different level and was on a row drawing shoes like mad, and one was better than the other.

Live from Milan it's Leal Daccarett
It is amazing how they work together, how both of their hands and taste go into each garment without a fight or any drama as any other couple trying to collaborate together would do, but they are so in sync that a dress is born flawlessly.
Today they will show this same collection in Cali - Colombia, so good luck! I hope it is as successful at is was here!!!

surprise!!


The past week we had a full house at the rabbit hole, 2 good friends of mine were our guests and last night before they left they surprised me with a little thankyou gift, the Prada robot keychain from 3 years ago! We had seen it at the Outlets last weekend and had drooled on it, I think I was too obvious ;)I named him Filippo the 2nd in honour to their lovely french bulldog (lol). It is huge! Impossible to use as a key chain because it doesn't fit in my bag, so I think I will hang it out of the bag or hang it from my neck, any other suggestions???

A little reward
Even if everything was 50 to 70% off it still was very pricey but I was lucky to find these YSL troopers for a fantastic price, and the harlequin Miu Miu dress and tights as an early, quite early Christmas present. Miss.Romeo also found them interesting, quite sad they didn't have them in her size.
I have plenty of posts for the rest of the week, but I am still pretty busy, so please be patient!

CNC fashion show LIVE from my living room
Thursday I go home late an exhausted from work, wanting to go to the CNC fashion show in Piazza Duomo, but when I saw it was going to show on Sky, I invited my friend Vanna on skype and we both watched it calm and comfortable in our homes.
As an intro, they had tap dancers, Paola and Chiara, two Italian singers that actually didn't sing but just lip singed something The Kills didn't do when they hit the stage (fantastic), and there was a person that read a poem.. that was quite odd.
The collection was kinda rock and roll glam that is getting a little old in my eyes.. this doesn't mean I didn't like the outfits that came stumping down the runway. The accesories where fantastic, as well as those drappy shorts, the netted tops and that shocking blue draped tunic dress that had this piece/ scarf that created this fantastic drapery around the neck.
No, nos? The prints and some fabrics looked cheap, though I was watching from my TV which is very small, so I could be mistaken.

Breath Mint Anyone?

There's something about the fall season that brings both calming and chaotic feelings.

spice up your feet
My sis saw this at TopShop laces last May when we went to London on a family vacation, she thought they were perfect to pump up some of my footwear. Since autumn is around the corner, meaning wind, rain and later some snow, the time my Dr.Martens come most in handy, I decided to change their look along with these white scribbled heels from Olga Piedrahita.
